第四部分:补充语言点
1. 祈使句 + and / or + 一般将来时的陈述句
祈使句在作用上相当于if从句,因此此句型可转换成if条件或假设状语从句+主句。
这种句型还可以用连词or 或 otherwise 连接, 相当于if not,意思是“否则的话”。
例:Fail to pay and they’ll cut off the electricity. = If you fail to pay, they’ll cut off the electricity.
Tony, use your head and then you’ll find the way.
Take more consideration next time. Or/otherwise they’ll speak ill of you to others.
2. That’s all right. 既可以用于对致谢的回答,也可用于对道歉的回答。
例: (1)---I’m very sorry to have kept you waiting.
---That’s all right.
(2)---Many thanks.
---That’s all right.
对致谢的回答还有:You are welcome. / Don’t mention it. / Not at all. / Not a bit. / It’s my pleasure. / That’s OK.
3. 名词作定语
名词作定语时,一般用单数形式。例:a shoe shop, war stories
注意例外的情况,如man 和 woman作定语时,应和被修饰名词在数上保持一致。
例: a man doctor two women doctors
4. 助动词do, does, did可用于一般现在时和一般过去时的肯定句中, 与动词原形连用,表示强调。
例:Do tell me what has happened to you.

We don’t allow smoking in the classroom.
5. 在英语中,当谓语动词所带的宾语太长时,常把宾语放在状语之后,保持句子平衡。在阅读,写作时应格外注意这种现象。
例:But Cook ordered the crew to throw over the side of the ship guns, iron balls, pots, chains, and even stores.
6. 动词advise, allow, forbid, permit之后,用动名词作宾语,但在以人作为宾语的情况下,用用不定式作宾语补足语。

7. 表示原因的介词短语有:as a result of, because of, thanks to,owing to,due to, on account of等。
8. 在汉语中,通常把人体的某一部分作动词的宾语,而在英语中,一般把人作动词的宾语,而用介词短语说明人的部位,人体的部位名词前一般用定冠词the,而不用物主代词或名词所有格形式。
例:The policeman caught him by the arm.
The stone hit him on the head.
The soldier was wounded in the chest.
9. 否定句、疑问句中的猜测语气要用情态动词can,而不能用must.

12. I dare say…意思为 “或许、可能”,表一种猜测语气。
例:I dare say it will rain tomorrow.

13. very和much用法上的区别。(作为了解内容)
very一般修饰形容词和副词的原级,包括用形容词的现在分词和失去动作意义的过去分词。

20. be of +名词,可表示主语的属性。

注:同源宾语不可变成被动语态。
例:We are living a happy life. 不能说A happy life is being lived by us.

“If you won’t do as I tell you, you shan’t get your birthday gift”said Father to Tom.
25. 作定语的不定式和被修饰的名词之前往往存在两种逻辑上的关系,即被修饰的名词式不定式的逻辑主语或逻辑宾语。
例:Alice is always the first student to come to school.
Mr. Brown has a large family to support.
The meeting to take place here tomorrow is going to discuss the problem of pollution.
当被修饰名词是不定式逻辑上的宾语, 而该不定动词又是不及物动词时,应在该动词后面加一个介词,以形成逻辑上的动宾关系。
例:She has a nice pen to write with.
26. could+完成时,表示“可能已经……”,是对过去某事的推测。
can+完成时只用于疑问句和否定句中,肯定句中不能用can.

You could have come earlier.
may/might as well+动词原形,意为“最好”、“倒不如”。

例:That s much the most interesting story I’ve ever heard.
29. 表示建议、请求、命令、计划的词,不论以何种形式(如名词、形容词、动词等)出现在句子中,相应的名词性从句的谓语都要求用虚拟语气。
例:The officer gave the order that the bridge be destroyed before daylight. (同位语从句)
The officer’s order was that the bridge be destroyed before daylight. (表语从句)
It was ordered that the bridge be destroyed before daylight. (主语从句)
