與此同時(shí),這一類(lèi)詞語(yǔ)由于其具備強(qiáng)調(diào)的意義通常也是句子中需要“重讀”的關(guān)鍵詞語(yǔ),掌握它們的其作用自然不言而喻。我相信,列出的大部分詞語(yǔ)都是大家使用的高頻詞匯。但是,真正在意識(shí)上會(huì)把它們當(dāng)成一類(lèi)工具詞語(yǔ)來(lái)使用并且刻意添加以加強(qiáng)語(yǔ)氣或充實(shí)句子的人很少。要知道,積累、分類(lèi)強(qiáng)調(diào)詞匯其實(shí)是通向語(yǔ)言variety(多樣性)的第一條道路,非常關(guān)鍵。
當(dāng)然,詞不離句,我在這里首先要澄清一個(gè)優(yōu)先概念:強(qiáng)調(diào)句型(注意不是強(qiáng)調(diào)句)。表示強(qiáng)調(diào)的句型我們簡(jiǎn)稱(chēng)為“強(qiáng)調(diào)句型”,包括倒裝句強(qiáng)調(diào)句感嘆句等。這里我主要涉及的是強(qiáng)調(diào)句型中的一支:“強(qiáng)調(diào)詞匯”——即通過(guò)詞匯來(lái)表達(dá)情感。
接下來(lái)我就根據(jù)意義進(jìn)行分類(lèi),再結(jié)合例句給大家介紹這些強(qiáng)調(diào)詞匯(以adv.為主)的作用,并且總結(jié)這些詞在新概念三冊(cè)中的所有相關(guān)例句。非常巧,這其中包含了大量新概念三的經(jīng)典鉆石句,這也間接說(shuō)明了我在此總結(jié)并希望大家熟練掌握強(qiáng)調(diào)詞匯的重要性。希望大家在看完各部分的單獨(dú)分析后再參照我后面所列出的新概念三冊(cè)里的例句鞏固加深記憶并且掌握各種語(yǔ)境下的用法。
一、“很” :VERY
在表示“非常”“很”或“太”的時(shí)候,我們有不少詞能夠表達(dá)類(lèi)似的意思:
awfully (= terribly 既可表可怕 也有awfully beautiful = very beautiful表示“很”)
badly (非常極度 The babies are badly in need of domestic milk powder substitute.)
bloody (英式英語(yǔ)中表“忒”的意思 例如bloody well right表示“非常好”)
dame (英語(yǔ)口語(yǔ)表示強(qiáng)烈情感時(shí)候經(jīng)常用 例如“很好”用dame good)
deadly (極度的絕對(duì)的 He was deadly heartbroken by her ex-girlfriend.)
dearly (從深情引申到深深 He was dearly in love with her at that time.)
dreadfully (= terribly 例如表示“怕得要命”be dreadfully scared)
much (表很大程度上通常用作句首倒裝 引導(dǎo)轉(zhuǎn)折 Much as…+不帶but的轉(zhuǎn)折)
enormously (萬(wàn)分非常 He was enormously grateful for her backing him up then.)
enough (表充足= abundant = adequate 但接在adj. adv. 后表示“很” well enough)
exceedingly (= extremely 非常好的同意替換詞He drove exceedingly fast.)
extremely (最常用的表極度的詞語(yǔ))
even (更加 He looked even better/worse after the treatment. 有時(shí)能跟long替換)
far (相當(dāng)程度的 They seem far too close as normal friends.)
highly (各種講話中最常用的表示“高度”的詞 He was highly praised.高度贊揚(yáng))
over (太 過(guò)分的 例如over anxious表過(guò)度焦慮)
so (如此 It was so stupid of him to come up with such an idea that almost killed us.)
terribly(注意跟thanks to = because一樣沒(méi)有感情偏向He was terribly lucky.)
too (常跟其它表示“很”的詞搭配使用 He is only too willing to be of her service.)
way (常以way too/over/off/above搭配的形式出現(xiàn)表示“大大”或“遠(yuǎn)遠(yuǎn)超過(guò)”)
well (= way 例如His intelligence is well above an average 3-years old.)
