instead of是“代替……”、“而不……”的含义,是比较常用的词汇,而且常常和instead的用法混淆。下面这篇我们就具体说说instead of的用法



1.instead of为介词短语,它后面可跟名词、代词、动名词、介词短语或形容词等。如:


Would you like to take a taxi instead of a bus?你想打的而不是坐公车吗?


Would you like to take a taxi instead of going by bus?(NOT...instead to go by bus.)你想打的去而不是坐公车去吗?



【注】instead of后面不跟不定式。



2.instead of有时具有连词的性质,可以连接两个相同的语法结构。如:


Taking exercise every day makes him look younger instead of older. 每天锻炼身体使他显得更年轻而不是苍老。(连接形容词)


But the businessman grew worse instead of better. 但这位商人的情况没有好转,反而进一步恶化了。(连接比较级)


I go to bed late instead of early.我总是很晚才睡。(连接副词)


In warm weather he often reads under a tree instead of in the library.天气暖和的时候,他常常是在树下而不是在图书馆里读书。(连接介词短语)


As a result, silver begar to flow out of,instead of ,into the country.结果,银开始流出而不是流入该国。(链接介词短语)


He proposes to do some work instead of to watch television.他提议做些工作而不是看电视。(连接不定式)



3.Instead 单独使用的时候作副词,是“代替”、“顶替”的意思。常用于句末。如:


We’ve no coffee. Would you like tea instead.我没有咖啡了,喝茶行吗?


It will take days by car, so let’s fly instead..坐汽车得好几天时间,所以我们还是改乘飞机吧。

insteadof后面接todo还是doing?(mostly)



4.用instead这个副词时,句子中的动作是被”取”的,即要去做的或要被选择的,而用instead of时,of后面的动是被“舍”的,即不去做或者未被选择的。因此用instead的句子也可以改成instead of。试比较下面两个句子:


She never studies. Instead, she plays tennis all day.
→Instead of studying , she tennis all days.


她成天打网球,而不是学习。



He didn’t give John the money, but he gave it to me instead.
→Instead of giving John the money, he gave it to me.


他没给过钱给约翰,而是给我了。

insteadof后面接todo还是doing?(mostly)
