一、pay，pay for的区别
pay to give money for goods，services付款，给……报酬
pay a bill付帐；pay sb．to do sth．雇某人做某事；full pay全薪； half pay半薪；pay off偿清，付清；pay back偿付，报答
［辨析］pay，pay for
两者都可表示“付款”，但用法不同：
pay用作及物动词时，后面接表示人的词语，即pay sb．意为“付款给某人”。

如：
He paid me five yuan．他付了我五元钱。

Have you paid the doctor yet？医生的酬金付了吗？
pay for中的pay为不及物动词，其宾语多为物，即pay for sth．，意为“付款买某物”；其宾语为人时，即pay for sb．，意为“替某人付款。

”如：
Shall I pay for you？我替你付款好吗？
He can't pay for the TV set at the moment．他现在还不能给这台电视机付款。

How much did you pay for all these things？你买所有这些东西一共花了多少钱？
另外，表示“给某人钱买……”，可用“pay（sb．）＋钱＋for sth．”。

如：
I paid the shopkeeper 10 yuan for the book．我向店主付了十元钱买这本书。
