(买)一台新电脑要花一大笔钱。

(2)spend 意为“花费;度过”,主语是人,常用结构:sb. spend(s)some time/money on sth.;sb. spend(s)some time/money (in) doing sth. 例如:

The policeman spends his free time with his family.

这个警察和他的家人度过他的空闲时间。

(3)take 意为“花费”,it作形式主语,常用结构:It takes sb. some time to do sth.例如:

他们用了四年时间修完了这条路。

(4)pay 意为“花费”,主语是人,常用结构:sb. pay(s)(sb.) some money for sth.例如:

『注意』cost 还可做名词,意为“成本;费用;价格;代价”。常用于短语“the cost of…(……的花费)”。例如:
