General Sentence Patterns

Introduction

形容词只修饰名词,副词修饰其它的词(通常修饰动词)

区分表目的的 to/for:

  • to + 动词 (Verb) → 表示目的为一个动作

  • for + 名词 (Noun) → 表示目的为一个事物或事件

  • We need to find a time to meet.

  • We need to find a time for a meeting.

**介词(介词词组):**后面只能出现名词(动名词)

  • to也可做介词,表示方向、关系、接收者等,此时后面就是跟名词而不是动词了

**副词的位置:**实义动词前、助动词/情态动词后、be动词后

  • 时间、地点副词通常放在句末

**感官动词(look,smell,taste,sound,feel):**作系动词时,后面要根据形容词

**双宾语的位置:**间接宾语(人)在前,直接宾语(物)在后,也可以对调,但是需要借助介词 to 或者 for

**可数名词:**表达单数时用不定冠词(a,an),表达复数时后面加s

冠词的使用:修饰名词

  • 单数、可数名词前必须要加 a/an,表泛指
  • 表特指时,都可以用 the

主谓一致:(simply-version:主语单数时,动词用三单,情态动词除外)【前提:一般现在时】

  • 主语为复数时,动词用复数(动词的复数形式其实就是动词原型)
  • 主语为单数时,动词用三单(加-s/es)
  • 有情态动词时(can/may/must等) ,动词用原形(无视主语单复数)

**翻译技巧:**如果中文句子里没有明确的谓语,那么谓语就是隐藏的“是”,并且“是”后面的内容多半是形容词。


句型分析:

  • 分句型,找主干(有动作就是主谓宾,否则就是主系表)

  • 看时态

  • 定语:用于修饰名词, 短定语放前面,长定语放后面。

  • 状语:用于修饰动词,顺序:方式、地点、时间

从句 Clauses

注意:当一个从句作主语时,它被视为一个单数名词,因此,主句的谓语动词需要使用第三人称单数形式。

1. 名词从句 (Noun Clauses)

核心功能:整个从句在主句中扮演一个“名词”的角色,可以作主语、宾语、表语同位语

引导词: that

that 本身在从句中不担任任何成分,只起连接作用,引导一个陈述事实的句子。


作宾语从句 (最常见):主语 + 及物动词 (think, believe, know...) + (that) + 完整陈述句

放在及物动词后面,回答“(动词)什么内容”的问题。that 在作宾语时通常可以省略。

  • I believe (that) honesty is the best policy.
  • She said (that) she would be late.
  • He hopes (that) he can pass the exam.

作主语从句:It + is/was + 形容词/名词 + that + 完整陈述句

that 从句是真正的主语,但因为太长了,通常放在句末,用 It 作形式主语。

  • It is true that he completed the marathon.
  • It is a pity that you missed the party.
  • It is obvious that she is not interested.

作表语从句:主语 (fact, problem...) + is/was + that + 完整陈述句

放在系动词 be 后面,用来解释说明主语的内容。

  • The problem is that we are running out of time.
  • The fact is that we have to make a decision now.

  • The news that our team won the championship spread quickly.
  • The idea that we could fly was once considered impossible.
  • He holds the belief that everyone is created equal.
  • The fact that an incident occurred on the subway is unfortunate.

引导词: whether / if (是否)

这两个词在从句中不担任任何成分,引导一个表示“不确定”或“选择”的句子。从句内部使用陈述句语序


作宾语从句:主语 + 及物动词 (ask, wonder, don't know...) + whether/if + 完整陈述句 放在表示“怀疑”、“想知道”等不确定含义的动词后面。
