hide out:继续隐匿; 隐藏起来

couple:在非正式语体中可作“一些,几个”解,用作单数名词,常与of连用。接复数名词作主语时,谓语动词侧重整体用单数形式,侧重个体用复数形式。
词义辨析:couple, pair这两个词都有“一双”“一对”的意思。其区别是:
1.couple指在一起或互有关系的两个人或物,但并不意味是同样的,且可分可合; pair指由两个一样的东西组成的“一对”“
一双”“一副”,缺一不可。例如:
I found a couple of socks in the room but they do not make a pair.我在房间找到两只袜子,但不是一双的。
2.couple和pair都可指“夫妻”, pair更强调“般配”。例如:
Not every couple is a pair.天下夫妇多,珠联璧合少。
pair指夫妇时谓语动词用复数,而couple指夫妇时谓语动词用单数。
3.pair还可指夫妻之外有密切连带关系的人。
ahead of:在 ... 前面; 先于
The young man walked at the head of the parade.
那年轻人走在游行队伍最前面。
I think the work can be completed ahead of time.
我认为这项工作能提前完成。
