句式精讲
1. They were walking more slowly than us.
该句时态是过去进行时,表示说话人在过去某个时刻或某一阶段正在进行的动作。这一特定时间除了有上下文外,经常和表示过去时间的状语then,a moment ago,at this time yesterday,at ten last night,at that time/ moment等连用。例如:
—What were you doing at this time yesterday? 昨天这个时候你正在做什么?
—I was cooking with my mother. 我正和我妈妈一起做饭。
【拓展】
(1)过去进行时表某一行为的“片断”,一般过去时表示行为的“整体”和存在的状态。例如:
I was reading the book at that time. (未读完,“读”的片段)
I read the book yesterday. (已读完,表整个“读”)
过去进行时多与一段持续的时间状语连用。 例如:It was raining all night. 整个晚上在下雨。He was writing a letter the whole of afternoon. 他整个下午在写信。
while引导的时间状语从句常用在过去进行时。例如: He broke a chair while he was jumping up and down.
他在跳上跳下的过程中弄坏了椅子。
while所在主从句动作持续相等时间时,主从句一般都用过去进行时;如果两个动作一长一短时,经常是短的用一般过去时,长的用过去进行时。 例如:
I was cooking the dinner while he was playing the piano.
他在弹钢琴时我在做饭。
I saw him while I was walking to the station.
我在去往车站时看见了他。
2. He’s hit his head and his leg hurts.
(1)hurt作及物动词,意为“使受伤,使疼痛,伤感情”。例如:
No one was seriously hurt in the traffic accident.
在这次交通事故中没有人受重伤。
The tight shoe hurt my foot.
这只鞋太紧,把我的脚挤疼了。
His words hurt her feelings.
他无意中伤了她的感情。
(2)hurt作不及物动词,意为“疼痛”。例如:
My right leg hurts. 我右腿疼。
【拓展】
hurt; injure与wound的辨析:
(1) hurt为普通用语,既可指肉体上的伤害,也可指精神上、感情上的伤害。例如:
You hurt her feelings when you said she was fat. 你说她胖,伤害了她的感情了。
(2) injure比hurt正式,hurt多指伤痛,而injure则指损害健康、成就、容貌等,强调功能的损失。例如:
She has an injured leg. 她的一条腿受伤了。
(3) wound指枪伤、刀伤、刺伤等皮肉之伤,是出血的、严重的伤,特指战场上受伤。例如:
The bullet wounded him in the shoulder. 子弹打伤了他的肩膀。
3. We’d better get you to hospital.
had better(常简略为’d better)是一固定词组,had better意为“最好”,用于表示对别人的劝告、建议或表示一种愿望。其用法有以下几点:
(1) had better后面必须跟动词原形,构成had better do sth.句型。这里的had不能用have来替换。例如:
You’d better go to hospital at once. 你最好立即去医院看病。
Tom, you’d better go there today. 汤姆,你最好今天去那里。
(2) 主语不论是第几人称,句子不论是什么时态,都要用had better的形式。例如:
Now you(he; we) had better listen to the teacher. 你(他,我们)现在最好听老师讲。
4. It harms nearly every part of your body.
(1)harm作名词,意为“伤害”。常用搭配:do harm to sb =do sb harm该结构表示“对某人有害”。
例如:
His failures did his reputation a lot of harm.
他屡次失败使他的声誉受到很大损害。
Smoking does harm to your health.
吸烟对你的身体有害。
Whether it will do us harm remains to be seen.
是否对我们有害还要看一看。
(2)harm 作动词,意为“使受到伤害,损害”。例如:
Don’t?harm?your?eyes?by?reading?in?dim?light.? 不要在昏暗的灯光下看书,以免损害眼睛。?
??I?have?never?harmed?anybody. 我从未伤害过任何人。?
??There?was?a?fire?in?our?street,?but?no?one?was?harmed.? 我们街里曾发生过火灾,但没人受伤。?
5. I want to ask you to stop smoking.
(1) stop的后面可以用动词不定式也可以用动名词作宾语。stop doing表示“停止正在做的事情”;stop to do表示“停下来开始做”的意思。例如:
Now let’s stop reading. 现在咱们停止读书。
Our teacher stopped to look at the boy. 老师停下来看了看那个男孩。
(2)stop还可以构成短语stop somebody/something from doing something表示“阻止某人做某事或者阻止某事发生”。例如:
The trees and grasses can stop the wind from blowing the earth away.
树和草可以阻止风把土吹走。
6. …think + 从句
(1)… think后所加的从句是宾语从句,意为“……认为……”。例如:
I think he is a good boy. 我认为他是一个好孩子。
(2) 当think后接的宾语从句为含有not的否定句时,该否定应移至主句,即否定主句的谓语动词。例如:
I don’t think it will rain tomorrow. 我认为明天不会下雨。
I don’t think you are right. 我认为你不对。
【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?
