- 词语辨异
return, be back, come back, get back, go back
这组词(组)都可表示“回去”。其区别是:return与其他词相比有些书卷气; come back的意思是“回归”“回来”,指回到说话人所在的地方; go back指回到出发点,是一种非正式说法,常用于口语中; get back是回到原来的出发点; be back意为“回来了”,表示状态,是日常应用最广的非正式说法。例如:
Did Duff come back?—Yes, he came back.达夫回来了吗?是的,他回来了。
Now let's go back to the beginning of the page.现在让我们回到这页的开头。
When he got back, he found that supper was over.当他回来的时候,他发现晚餐已经结束了。

下面三句的意思相同:
She will return next week.
She returns next week.
She is returning next week.
她下周回来。
- 正误解析
1.我回家已经一周了。
［误］ I have returned home for a week.
［正］ I returned home a week ago.
［正］ It is a week since I returned home.
［析］ return是瞬间动词,不可与表示一段时间的状语连用。
2.他快回来了。
［误］ He'll return back soon.
［误］ He'll return again soon.
［正］ He'll return soon.
［析］ return本身就表示回去或回来,因而不与again或back连用。
