英语语法入门：反身代词
The reflexive pronouns are:反身代词有：We use a reflexive pronoun:我们用反身代词：
• as a direct object when the object is the same as the subject of the verb:当动词的主语与宾语一致，反身代词作直接宾语：
I am teaching myself to play the piano.
Be careful with that knife. You might cut yourself.
We can use a reflexive pronoun as direct object with most transitive verbs, but these are the most common:我们也可以将反身代词作为直接宾语，与及物动词连用，以下是常见的及物动词：
Some verbs change their meaning slightly when they have a reflexive pronoun as direct object:反身代词作为直接宾语时，有些动词的意义改变：
Would you like to help yourself to another drink?
= Would you like to take another drink?
I wish the children would behave themselves.
= I wish the children would behave well.
He found himself lying by the side of the road.
= He was surprised when he realised that he was at the side of the road.
I saw myself as a famous actor.
= I imagined that I was a famous actor.
She applied herself to the job of mending the lights.
= She worked very hard to mend the lights.
He busied himself in the kitchen.
= He worked busily in the kitchen.
I had to content myself with a few Euros.
= I had to be satisfied with a few Euros.
We do not use a reflexive pronoun after verbs which describe things people usually do for themselves, such as wash, shave, dress:我们不在动词后直接接反身代词来描述人们给自己的动作，如洗澡、刮胡子、穿衣服：
He washed in cold water.
He always shaved before going out in the evening.
Michael dressed and got ready for the party.
We only use reflexives with these verbs for emphasis:我们只在强调时将反身代词放在动词后面：
He dressed himself in spite of his injuries.
She’s old enough to wash herself.
• as indirect object when the indirect object is the same as the subject of the verb:当间接宾语的动词与主语相同时，反身代词作为间接宾语：
Would you like to pour yourself a drink.
We’ve brought ourselves something to eat.
But we use personal pronouns, not reflexives, after prepositions of place...但是在介词后，我们用人称代词而非反身代词。
He had a suitcase beside him.
and after with when it means "accompanied by":
She had a few friends with her.
We use a reflexive with the preposition by...在下列情况中我们会在介词后使用反身代词。
• when we want to show that someone did something alone and/or without any help:当我们想要表现出某人独立完成某事时：
He lived by himself in an enormous house.
She walked home by herself.
The children got dressed by themselves.
I prepared the whole meal by myself.
• to emphasise the person or thing we are referring to:强调我们所指代的某人或某物：
Kendal itself is quite a small town.
especially if we are talking about someone very famous:特别是我们在谈论某位名人：
Sir Paul McCartney himself sang the final song.
We often put the reflexive pronoun at the end of the clause when we are using it for emphasis:我们会在句子末尾使用反身代词以表强调：
I baked the bread myself.
She mended the car herself
