用法
(1)	Lay (“to put, place, or prepare”) and lie (“to recline or be situated”) are frequently confused. Lay is a transitive verb and takes an object. Lay and its principal parts ( laid, laying ) are correctly used in the following examples:
	Lay （“放、安置或准备”）和 lie （“躺下或位于”）两词经常被混淆。 Lay 是一及物动词，能接宾语。在以下的例子中，lay 及它的分词形式（ laid，laying ）在下列句子中的用法是正确的：
	He laid (not lay ) the newspaper on the table.
	他已把（而不是 lay ）报纸放在桌子上。
	The table was laid for four.
	四个人的餐具已安排好了。
(2)	Lieis an intransitive verb and does not take an object. Lie and its principal parts ( lay, lain, lying ) are correctly used in the following examples:
	Lie是一不及物动词，不接宾语。在以下的例句中，lie 和它的分词形式（ lay，lain，lying ）的用法是正确的：
	She often lies (not lays ) down after lunch.
	中饭之后她通常（而不是 lays ）躺下休息。
	When I lay (not laid ) down, I fell asleep.
	我一躺倒（不是 laid ）就睡着了。

	垃圾堆在那里已有（不是 laid ）一星期了。
	I was lying (not laying ) in bed when he called.

	对于这些规则也有一些例外。动词词组lay for 及航海用语 lay ，如在lay at anchor （抛锚）中，虽然为不及物动词，但已被广泛接受了
