hurt是一个常用和常考的词，它的词性有动词、名词。下面就其常用意思、常考点及难点项进行陈述。

hurt可以用作及物动词，常见意思是“使受伤，弄痛”。比如：Those hurt in the explosion were given $50000 damages.那些在爆炸中受伤的人得到了五万美金的赔偿。

hurt的第二个意思是“伤害……的感情,使精神上痛苦”。比如:It hurts me to see so many mistakes in my examination paper.看到我考试上犯的那么多错误就让我痛心。She would never intentionally hurt anyone.她从来不会故意伤害任何人。

作为及物动词，hurt的第三个意思是“对……有害，对……有不良影响”。比如：Tom was jealous of John's success and managed to hurt his business.汤姆嫉妒约翰的成功，于是千方百计地破坏他的生意。

hurt还可以用作不及物动词，意思是“痛，受痛苦”。比如：My stomach hurts in cold weather.天气冷时我的胃就痛。My shoes hurt--they're too tight.我的鞋子太紧，穿着夹脚。

hurt还可以用作名词，它的意思是“伤害，疼痛”，比如：Go ahead，it would do not hurt to ask the question.去吧，问这个问题不会有伤害。I was full of jealousy and hurt.我内心充满了嫉妒和痛苦

hurt考点：它是一个常考词，需要注意的是hurt是不规则动词，它的过去式和过去，分词与原形相同。常见的错误是：He was hurt at work.在这里应该改为主动形式hurt。

难点1：句型的把握很重要，注意不要受汉语的影响，常见的错误，比如：当我们想表达“鞋子把我的脚弄痛了”时，我们不应该写成：The shoes make my feet hurt，应该改成：The shoes hurt me.

如果说“咳嗽使我非常难受。”，不能写成：The cough makes me hurt awfully.应该改成：It hurts me awfully to cough.

难点2： hurt做名词，意思做“伤害”解释的时候，后边可以接动词不定式或者是介词to的短语结构这也是难点，比如：It was a severe hurt to his feelings.
