受。所以呢,我们说话的时候,只要在要点之前先来点废话,注意二者之间用个专这次就够了。
▲ The car was quite old, yet it was in excellent condition.
▲ The coat was thin, but it was warm. 更多的短语: despite that, still, however, nevertheless,
in
spite
of,
despite,
notwithstanding(尽管)
3)因果(so, so, so)。昨天在街上我看到了一个女孩,然后我主动搭讪,然后我们去咖啡厅,然后我们认识了,然后我们成为了朋友...可见,讲故事的时候我们总要追求先后顺序,先什么,后什么,所以然后这个词就变得很常见了。其实这个词表示的是先后或因果关系! The snow began to fall, so we went home. 更多短语: then, therefore, consequently, accordingly, hence, as a result, for this reason, so that
4)失衡句(头重脚轻,或者头轻脚重)。有些人脑袋大,身体小,或者有些人脑袋小,身体大,虽然我们不希望长成这个样子,可如果真的是这样了,也就必然会吸引别人的注意力。文章中如果出现这样的句子,就更会让改卷者看到你的句子与众不同。其实就是主语从
句,表语从句,宾语从句的变形。举例:This is what I can do. Whether he can go with us or not is not sure. 同样主语、宾语、表语可以改成如下的复杂成分: When to go, Why he goes away...
5)附加(多此一举)。如果把一些更具体,更详细的话插入到我们的话里面,那就是定语从句或者同位语从句或者是插入语。
★ The man whom you met yesterday is a friend of mine.
★ I don’t enjoy that book you are reading. ★ Mr. Liu, our oral English teacher, is easy-going.
其实很简单,这些成份删除后,并不影响整个句子的构成。
6)排比(排山倒海句)。文学作品中最吸引人的地方莫过于此,如果非要让你的文章更加精彩的话,那么我希望你引用一个个的排比句,一个个的对偶句,一个个的不定式,一个个地词,一个个的短语,如此表达将会使文章有排山倒海之势!
◆ Whether your tastes are modern or traditional, sophisticated or simple, there is plenty in London for you.
◆ Nowadays, energy can be obtained through various sources such as oil, coal, natural gas, solar heat, the wind and ocean tides. ◆ We have got to study hard, to enlarge our scope of knowledge, to realize our potentials and to pay for our life.
七、 挑战极限原则。
既然是挑战极限,必然是比较难的,但是并非高不可攀!原理:在学生的文章中,很少发现诸如独立主格的句子,其实也很简单,只要花上5分钟的时间看看就可以领会,它就是分词的一种特殊形式,分词要求主语一致,而独立主格则不然。比如:
■ The weather being fine, a large number of people went to climb the Western Hills.
■ Africa is the second largest continent, its size being about three times that of China.
独立主格的特点: 1)独立主格结构的逻辑主语
与句子的主语不同,它独立存在。
2)名词与后面的分词存在逻辑上的主谓关系,即逻辑主语为动作执行者。
3)独立主格结构一般有逗号
与主句分开。
