Spend . Expend . Cost . Pay

以上四个词和“消费”、“花费”和“消耗”有关。

●首先,spend主要做及物动词使用,其宾语可以是“钱”、“时间”或“精力”。

Every year, she spends a lot of money on clothes.

女孩,您用生命买衣服啊。

各位瞅仔细了,spend [money] on doing sth.但是spend [time] doing sth.这就是区别。雅思考官各个鹰眼犀利,可别范怂。

我姐姐洗澡总是洗很久很久。

此外,spend并非大家想象的只能由人或机构做主语:

●expend的用法和spend差不多,比expend更为正式,可以用于雅思写作;

You expend so much effort for so little return.

你还真是入不敷出。

政府在战争上投入很多资源。

●cost的用法与spend, expend不同。cost的主语一般是花出去的钱、时间和精力的对象。

The board game costs me 30 dollars.√

I spend 30 dollars for the board game.√

One costs more money running a business than buying a house. X

Running a business costs more money than buying a house.√

It costs more money to run a business than to buy a house.√

(因为这句话的主语是不定式to run a business,所以它被放在谓语和宾语后面,主语用it代替)

●pay的用法。pay强调“付款”,也有pay [money] for sth.这样一看就懂的用法

You have to pay four dollars for each hamburger.

当然pay还有很多其他用法。

妈妈帮我付了学开车的钱。
