先让我们复习一些熟悉的短语:

by the way: 顺便说一下,顺便问一下:

例句 1:

顺便说一下,如果你见到Helen,麻烦告诉她,这个周末我们外出的计划取消了。

By the way, please tell Helen if you meet her that our outgoing plan for this weekend has been cancelled.

★You say by the way when you want to introduce a comment or ask a question that is not directly related to what you have been talking about.

on the way (to):在路上,在(去)...的路上:

例句 2:

天气预报员们都说,不久将会下更多的雪。

The weather forecasters say more snow is on the way.

★If you say on the way, you mean that sth. or sb. is on their route (to some place).

in this way 这样(通过这种方式) / in that way 那样(通过那种方式):

例句 3-1:

每年成千上万的动物都以这种方式被屠宰。

Each year, hundreds of animals are killed in this way.

例句 3-2:

如果你继续那样的话,你就会越来越脱离大众。

If you carry on in that way, you will be more and more divorced from the masses.

今天辨析的是:

♥ ④ in a way:在某种程度上;有几分 ;有点(= in one way = in some way)

= in a degree

= to some extent

例句 4-1:

从某种程度上来说,这是我们所犯的最严重的错误之一。

In a way it was one of our biggest mistakes.

例句 4-2:

有点喜欢这个新发型。

I like the new hairdo in a way.

♥ ⑤ in the way: 碍事,挡道

例句 5-1:

“你挡道了!” 她说,“麻烦你让一下好吗?”

"You're standing in the way ," she said. "Would you mind moving aside?"

(体会这里的定冠词the指的是自己要走的路。)

例句 5-2:

你把车停在道路上,我过不去了!

You've left your car in the way and I can't get past it.

(体会定冠词the指的是自己要走的路。)

例句 5-3:

你可以进厨房里来观看,但请尽量不要碍事

You can come into the kitchen to observe, but please try not to get in the way.

(体会定冠词the指的是别人忙于工作要走的路。)

例句 5-4:

对不起,我现在就让开道路

Sorry about that, I'll get out of your way.

例句 5-5:

请让那些人从路中间让开,那样我们才能让救护车过去。

Please get those people out of our way so that we can get through with the ambulance.

★可见in the way(挡道) 的反义词组应该是get out of the way(让道)。

(体会the way都是特指自己忙于要走的路。)

GO out of the way to do sth.

不遗余力地去做某事;特地的去做某事

(体会:从自己忙于要走到路上走出来,去特意地做别的事情。)

例句 6-1:

She went out of her way to help the newcomer.

不遗余力地去帮助那个新来的人。

例句 6-2:

They go out of their way to make me feel at home.

他们特意使我感觉像在自己家里一样,舒适自在。

小结

by the way: 顺便说、顺便问一下

on the way (+to):在路上;在去...的路上

in this way / in that way:以这种方式 / 以那种方式

in a way = in one way = in some way: 在某种程度上,有点;有几分

in the way:挡道,碍事;妨碍

get out of the way:别挡某人的路;给某人让路

go out of the way to do: 竭尽全力,不遗余力,特意去做
