句式精讲
1. They were having a tea party in the garden.
本句所用时态为过去进行时。过去进行时的结构为:was/were+doing。
它表示在过去某一时刻或某一时间内正在进行或发生的动作,通常和表示时间、地点的时间状语一起用。例如:
My parents were watching TV at 8:00 last night.
昨天晚上8点我父母在看电视。
They were swimming in the swimming pool this time last week.
上个星期的这个时候他们在游泳池游泳。
另外:在表示过去一个动作发生时,另一个动作正在进行,那么持续时间长的动作要用过去进行时。例如:
When the teacher came in, I was singing.
老师进来的时候我正在唱歌。
When someone knocked at the door, we were having supper.
当有人敲门的时候,我们正在吃晚饭。
2. To see if you remember the story!
if常引导宾语从句,表示“是否”之意。当把一般疑问句的直接引语转化成间接引语时,常 用if或whether作引导词。例如:
I asked her, “Do you study English here ” 我问她:“你在这里学习英语吗?”
→I asked her if/ whether she studied English there. 我问她是否在那里学习英语。
【拓展】
if与whether
if和whether均可表示“是否”,一般情况下二者可以互换。但在下列条件下,只能用whether而不能用if:
(1)if后不能直接接or not。
(2)whether可作介词的宾语。
(3)whether后可接不定式。
(4)whether可用于句首。
(5)whether可引导主语从句、表语从句。例如:
Everything depends on whether we have enough money.
一切都取决于我们是否有足够的钱。
Whether it is right or wrong, I don’t know. 正确与否,我不知道。
It doesn’t matter whether he will come or not. 他来不来没关系。
3. …she didn’t think it was strange.
she didn’t think…为否定转移句型。在think, believe, suppose, expect等动词后的宾语从句,有时谓语尽管是否定意思,却不用否定形式,而将think等动词变为否定形式。例如:
I don’t think you are right.
我认为你错了。
I don’t believe they have finished their work yet.
我相信他们还未完成他们的工作。
I don’t suppose he cares, does he
我想他不在意,是吗?
【拓展】
…think后经常用it作形式宾语,即“… think it(形式宾语) + adj. + for sb. + 动词不定式”意
为“某人认为……如何”。例如:
Do you think it useful for us to read more books 你认为我们多读书有用吗?
4. And what is a book for…
what…for意为“有什么用,为什么”。是不理解对方动机或询问对方目的和用途时的用语,for位于句末,一般用动词不定式或for的介词短语回答。例如:
What did you hit him for 你为什么打他?
— What did you do that for 你为什么做那件事
— To finish the work early. 为了早完成这项工作。
— I’m going to Paris. 我要去巴黎。
— What for (= What are you going to Paris for ) 去做什么?
【拓展】
why也表示“为什么”,但重在询问原因,一般用because回答。例如:
(1)— Why do you like P.E. 你为什么喜欢体育?
— Because it’s interesting. 因为它有趣。
(2)— What do you like P.E. for 你为什么喜欢体育?
— To keep healthy. 为了保持健康。
5. It was too dark for her to see anything.
too…to…意为“太……而不能”。它在结构形式上是肯定的,但意义上却表示否定含义,所以动词不定式符号to前不能再加not,只接动词原形即可,too后接形容词或副词原形。
例如:
The book is too difficult to understand. 这本书难于理解。
【拓展】
(1)在too…to…句型中,当动词不定式的动词是不及物动词,其后所跟的介词不能省略。例如:
The room is too small to live in. 这房间太小了不能住。
(2)在too…to…句型中,当动词不定式的宾语实际上就是这个句子的主语时,动词不定式后面不能再加代词作宾语。例如:
The question is too difficult to answer. 这个问题太难了,无法回答。
(3)在too…to…句型中,当动词不定式能确切说明动作执行者时,可以在动词不定式前面加上逻辑主语,即for sb.形式。例如:
The box is too heavy for him to carry. 箱子太沉了,他搬不动。
(4)含too…to…的句子可以改写成so…that…句型,意为“如此……以至于……”。例如:
He is too old to do hard work.
= He is so old that he can’t do hard work. 他年纪太大而不能干重活。
(5)含too…to…的句子也可以用“not + 形容词/副词 + enough to do sth.”句型来替换,但注意要用原句中形容词或副词的反义词。例如:
He is too old to do hard work.
= He is not young enough to do hard work. 他年纪大了,不能做重活。
