知识梳理
一、句子的分类
句子是一个语言单位.它由词或词组按一定的语法规则组成,表达一个完整独立的思想.
在谈话时句子与句子之间有停顿,在书写时句末有标点符号(句号、问号或感叹号).句首的第一个字母要大写.
(一)按使用目的可分四类
1.陈述句 2.疑问句 3.祈使句 4.感叹句
(二)从结构上看句子可分为以下三种类型
1.简单句 2.并列句 3.复合句
二、陈述句、疑问句、祈使句和感叹句
(一)陈述句
陈述句用来说明事实或说话人的看法,读降调,句末用句号.陈述句的结构分为肯定式和否定式两种.陈述句的语序是主语在前,谓语在后.
1.陈述句的肯定结构
(1)陈述句的语序一般是主语在前,谓语在后.某些类型的句子由there, here引起,谓语为come, go的句子,常用倒装语序.Here comes Li Lei!李磊来了!
Here are three books. You may read any.这里有三本书,你可以读任何一本.
(2)主语与谓语的一致,句子中的谓语动词和主语在人称和数上必须一致.如:
My mother was at work yesterday.我母亲昨天上班了.
①谓语只跟主语的中心词保持一致,修饰词不影响主语的数.
A wallet with money and credit card was stolen from her.她装有钱和信用卡的一个皮夹被偷了.
②there be结构和其他倒装句中,谓语通常放在主语的前面,这时谓语是单数还是复数,要看后面的主语而定.
There is no water in the glass.杯子里没有水.
There aren't any flowers in front of the house.房前没有花.
③由and连接两个或两个以上的名词,或由“both...(and)...”连接的两个成分作主语,其谓语通常用复数形式.
Both the students are American.这两个学生都是美国人.
Both you and he are right.你和他都对.
由and所连接的两个名词,有时指同一个人和同一件事,此时and后面的名词前没有冠词,谓语要用单数.若后面的名词前有定冠词修饰,意味着是指两个人或两件事,谓语就要用复数.
Bread and milk is good for our health.面包和牛奶对我们身体有益.
The doctor and writer has come.那位医生兼作家来了.
④表示数量、时间、距离、金钱等的复数名词作主语时,谓语动词一般用单数形式.用于数学运算的数字作主语,谓语通常也用单数形式.
A hundred miles is a long way.100英里是一段长路.
Ten years is a moment in history.10年在历史上是一瞬间.
2.陈述句的否定结构
(1)凡陈述句中的谓语部分有助动词be, have/has(有)或情态动词can, may, must, could, will, shall, might时其否定式只需在它们后面加上not即可.
She isn't a student.她不是个学生.
We haven't built many new factories this year.今年我们没建多少新工厂.
He couldn't be a thief.他不可能是个小偷.
(2)如果陈述句中的谓语动词是行为动词,其否定式(句)要在行为动词前面加do not,如果谓语动词是第三人称单数,要在动词前面加does not,然后把第三人称单数形式的谓语动词改为动词原形.动词是过去式时,在动词前加did not,并改过去式为动词原形.
He doesn't like red shirts. He likes white ones.他不喜欢红色衬衣.他喜欢白色衬衣.
He didn't go to school yesterday and I didn't go to school either. 他昨天没去上学,我也没去.
Don't draw on the wall.不要在墙上乱画.
(3)当have用作行为动词时,有两种情况:
一是当have(has)或had的意义是“有”时,它的否定句既可以在后面加not,也可以在它前面加don't(doesn't)或didn't;疑问句既可以将它移到句首,也可以在句首加do(does)或did.
She has not (hasn't) a nice bicycle.
She doesn't have a nice bicycle.她没有一辆漂亮的自行车.
Has she a nice bicycle
Does she have a nice bicycle 她有一辆漂亮的自行车吗
二是当have(has)或had的意义不是“有”而是“吃、玩、买、使得”等意义时,变成否定句或疑问句时要借助助动词do(does)或did.
He doesn't have a good time at weekend.他周末玩得不开心.
Does he have a good time at weekend 他周末玩得开心吗
(二)疑问句
是用来提出问题的句子.疑问句末尾用问号“ ”.疑问句有四类:一般疑问句、特殊疑问句、选择疑问句和反义疑问句.
1.一般疑问句
对某一种情况提出质疑,通常可以用yes或no回答的问句称为一般疑问句.一般疑问句通常读升调.
(1)把系动词、助动词、情态动词提前可以构成一般疑问句.
-Are you from America 你是美国人吗
-No, I'm from Australia.不是,我是澳大利亚人.
-Are you students 你们是学生吗
-Yes, we are.是的.
(2)如果谓语动词是行为动词,它前面又无助动词或情态动词,这时要在主语前面加上助动词,构成疑问句.
-Do you speak English 你说英语吗
-Yes, a little.是的,会说一点儿.
-Does he study hard 他学习努力吗
-No, he doesn't.不努力.
(3)一般疑问句与陈述句的转换.
陈述句中(单句)含有情态动词、系动词be、助动词have/has等词时,变一般疑问句只需将它们移至句首,然后将句号改成问号即可.如:
Are you going to the theatre 你要去剧场吗
Have you an apple 你有苹果吗
Must I go now 我现在必须走吗
如果陈述句中的谓语动词是行为动词(实义动词),变成一般疑问句须在句首加助动词do(谓语动词是第三人称单数形式时,在句首加does,将原第三人称动词改成动词原形).谓语动词是过去式时,句首加did,将动词过去式改成动词原形,其他情况一律在句首加do.
Does he swim every day 他每天游泳吗
2.特殊疑问句
用what, who, which等疑问代词或when, where, why, how等疑问副词引起的疑问句,叫做特殊疑问句.这种疑问句要求具体回答而不能用yes或no回答.句末要用问号,句子读降调.特殊疑问句由特殊疑问词(疑问代词或疑问副词)加一般疑问句构成.如:
What can I do for you 有什么事要帮忙吗
How do you go to school every day 你每天都怎么上学
Whom are you looking for 你找谁
点拨
将陈述句转化为特殊疑问句时,通常遵守下列原则:就物体提问用what;就人提问用who, whom;就时间提问用when(如果是就具体的时间提问还可用what time);就地点提问用where;就方式提问用how或by what;就for引导的一段时间提问用how long;就in引导的一段时间提问用how soon;就距离提问用how far;就原因提问用why;就数词提问用how much或how many(数词后面的名词是不可数名词时用how much,是可数名词时用how many);就周期、频率副词提问用how often.
3.选择疑问句
选择疑问句是说话人对问题提出两个或两个以上的选项,让对方选择回答.其结构是一般疑问句或特殊疑问句加选择部分,选择部分用or连接,朗读时前面用升调,最后一个选项用降调.回答时须选择回答,不能用yes或no回答.
-Is your friend a boy or a girl 你的朋友是男孩儿还是女孩儿
-She is a girl.她是女孩儿.
4.反义疑问句
反义疑问句由两部分组成,前一部分是陈述句,后一部分是简短的提问,中间用逗号隔开.
如果反义疑问句的前一部分为肯定形式,后一部分就用否定形式.反之,如果前一部分为否定形式,后一部分则用肯定形式.
读时,反义疑问句的前一部分用降调,后一部分在表示疑问时用升调,在表示强调时用降调.
对反义疑问句的回答,不管问题的提法如何,若事实是肯定的,就用yes,事实是否定的,就用no.第一部分是否定句,其英语回答和汉语回答有区别.
-You won't have supper, will you 你不吃晚饭了,是吗
-No, I won't.是的,我不吃了.
He went home late yesterday, didn't he 昨天他回家很晚,是吗
The TV set hasn't been repaired, has it 那台电视机还没有修理好,对吗

(1)在陈述句中的主语,如果是:something, anything, nothing, everything等时,简短问句的主语用it.
Everything is all right, isn'tit 一切都正常,不是吗
Nothing is wrong, is it 没什么不正常的,对吧
(2)在陈述句中的主语,如果是:anybody, everyone, everybody, somebody, no one等时,简短问句的主语用they或he.

I don't think he will be back in an hour, will he 我想他不会在一小时内回来,是吗
(10)陈述部分是You'd better...结构时,附加问句应用hadn't you/shouldn't you;若当陈述部分是you'd like...和you'd rather..结构时,附加部分应用wouldn't you.
You'd better come back early, hadn't you/shouldn't you 你最好早点回来,好不好
(11)当陈述句部分中的谓语含有情态动词must时,则要根据must的实际意义来决定附加问句:
当must表示“必须”时,附加问句是“mustn't+主语”.
当must表示“必要”时,附加问句是“needn't+主语”.
当must表示“推测”意义时,附加问句要根据陈述部分的不定式结构采用相应的主动词或助动词形式.
He must work hard next term, mustn't he 下学期他必须努力学习,对不对

(三)祈使句
祈使句是表示请求、命令、建议等的句子,通常也称“无主句”.说话的对象是第二人称you, you常被省略.句末可以用感叹号也可以用句号.
1.肯定祈使句
这种祈使句在初中英语中是常见的句式之一,有时为了加强语气,在动词前加do或在祈使句末尾加上呼语.有时为了表达客气的语气,常在句首或句尾加please.在句尾加时,要用逗号与句子的前部分隔开.

点拨
当主句的谓语动词是think, believe, suppose, imagine时,如果宾语从句要表示否定意义,往往通过否定主句来实现,这叫做“否定的转移”.主句的主语通常是I或we,谓语动词通常是一般现在时.
I don't think it's necessary to buy a bigger computer.我认为没有必要买一台较大的微机.

①当宾语从句是陈述句时,用that引导.
I know that you are a student.我知道你是一名学生.
He told us that he had been to America four times.他告诉我们他去过美国四次.
②当宾语从句是一般疑问句时,构成宾语从句用whether/if连接,句尾标点符号取决于主句.
Let me know whether you are coming.告诉我你是否要来.
He asked me if(whether) I knew John.他问我是否认识约翰.
I want to know whether(if)he lives there.我想知道他是否在那儿住.
点拨
当宾语从句是特殊疑问句时,连接词就用原特殊疑问词,但一定要注意从句的语序是陈述句语序,时态与主句相呼应,句末标点符号由主句决定.
2.状语从句
状语从句在整个复合句中起状语作用,用来修饰主句中的谓语动词、形容词或副词,有时用来修饰整个句子.它通常可以分为时间状语从句、地点状语从句、条件状语从句、目的状语从句、比较状语从句、原因状语从句、让步状语从句和结果状语从句8种.

点拨
条件状语从句同时间状语从句一样,谓语动词常用一般现在时表示将来,当从句中的主语是人时,谓语动词可能会出现will do形式,但此处的will不表示将来而表示意愿.
(4)目的状语从句.

原因状语从句由because(因为),since(由于;既然),as(因为)从属连词引导.because语气强,回答“why”提问的问题.
I won't go with you because I am busy doing my homework now.我不能跟你去,因为我正忙于做作业.
Because it was wet, I didn't go out for a walk.因为地湿,我没有出去散步.
He didn't buy it, because it was expensive.因为太贵了,他没有买.
Since a lot of people make mistakes in life, Mr. Smith wanted to give John a chance.
既然许多人一生中会犯错误,史密斯先生决定给约翰一次机会.
As he did not know much English, he got out his dictionary and looked up the word" cough".
由于他英语懂得不多,他拿出词典来查“cough”这个词.
点拨
because, since, as, for的用法区别
(1)because表示直接的原因或理由,表示原因的语气最强,常表示必然的因果关系.回答以why引起的特殊疑问句,只能用because.
(2)since表示对方已经知晓,无须加以说明的原因或事实,语气比because稍弱.
(3)as表示的往往是十分明显的原因,听者或读者已经知道或能看得出来,语气较弱,比较口语化.
(4)for是并列连词,它引导的分句不表示直接的原因,而是用来附带解释或说明前面一句的情况.for引导的分句常位于第一分句之后,它们之间用逗号隔开.
(7)让步状语从句.
让步状语从句通常由although/though(虽然······但是······),even if(即使),however(无论怎样),whatever(无论什么),no matter who(无论是谁)等引导,我们在这里只讨论由although/though引导的让步状语从句.如:
Though he is young, he knows a lot.他虽然年岁小,但知道的很多.
Though he has walked a long way, he does not look a bit tired.
他虽然走了那么长的路,但看上去一点儿不疲倦.
We enjoyed ourselves, although (though) the weather was bad.虽然天气不好,可是我们玩得很开心.
Though we know that clean air is important, we are not doing enough to keep it clean.
尽管我们知道清洁的空气很重要,但我们并没有尽力去保持空气的清洁.
Although it was cold,(yet)I went swimming.尽管冷,我还是去游泳了.
No matter who asks for her help. She is ready to help.无论谁请她帮忙,她都愿意帮助.
点拨
although和though引导的让步状语从句可以进行句式转换,即把从句中的形容词、名词或副词前置,然后把although/though改成as.
Though Australia is very large, much of the land is sand.=Large as Australia is, much of the land is sand.
澳大利亚虽然很大,但有大部分陆地是沙地.
(8)结果状语从句.
表示结果的状语从句,通常用下列从属连词引导
so(结果)因此、所以 that(结果)使得
so that (结果)所以 so...that 如此······以致(so后面跟形容词或副词)
such...that 如此······以致(such后面跟名词)
It was very warm, so that people could swim in rivers and lakes.天气很暖和,人们可以到湖里河里游泳.
The weather is so nice that all of us want to go to the park.天气那么好,我们大家都想去公园玩.
He has so many books that I don't know which one I should borrow.他有那么多书,我不知道该借哪一本.
点拨
(1)在so...that与such...that中间出现的是单数名词,且该名词前有形容词修饰时,这两种结构可互换,但要注意它们的词序不同:such+a/an+形容词+名词=so+形容词+a/an+名词.
(2)如果被修饰的是不可数名词或复数可数名词时,一般须用such...that.
(3)如果不可数名词或复数可数名词前有many, much, little, few修饰时,则用so...that.
