本文語法:簡單陳述句
語法歸納:一個完整的簡單陳述句一般包括 主語+謂語(+賓語+方式狀語+地點狀語+時間狀語),其中狀語可前置于句首。
精講筆記:
4.I did not enjoy it.
我卻無法欣賞。
語言點1 did not常用于正式寫作中,其縮寫didn't常在口語中使用,類似有:cannot/cannot=can't,could not=couldn't,do not=don't,will not=won't,shall not=shan't,have not=haven't等。
語言點2 enjoy的用法:
1)enjoy sth.從某事物中得到精神上的娛樂或快樂,比like意義要深得多。enjoy music享受音樂;enjoydinner享受宴會;enjoy life享受生活
2)enjoy doing sth.喜歡做某事。enjoy swimming喜歡游泳;enjoy fishing喜愛釣魚
3)一般不可說enjoy sb.,如:This morning I enjoyed my English teacher.是明顯錯誤的句子。但enjoy oneself(反身代詞)是特例,在請客人吃菜時可說Enjoy yourself!
5.A young man and a young woman were sitting behind me.
一青年男子與一青年女子坐在我的身后。
語言點1 A young man and a young woman為主語,交代誰坐在我的后面,他們必然和故事的發(fā)展有直接關(guān)系。
語言點2 形容詞修飾名詞作定語一般放在被修飾名詞之前,如young man,但如果是介詞短語形容詞短語作定語或修飾名詞的定語則放在被修飾名詞之后。例:a man in the room(介詞短語)在房間里的一個男人。Isit a problem difficult to solve(形容詞短語)?這是個難解決的問題嗎?
語言點3 本句時態(tài):were sitting為過去進行時,與sat(一般過去時)不同
語言點4 behind反義詞:in front of。原句可改寫為I was sitting in front of them.
6.They were talking loudly.
他們倆在一直在那里大聲地交談著。
語言點1 were talking為謂語動詞部分,loudly是副詞,副詞一般修飾動詞放在其后。例:hit hard重重地打;speak slowly慢條斯理地說;touch softly溫柔地?fù)崦?/p>
語言點2 were talking過去進行時,為何不用"They talked loudly."呢?因為be doing是介紹背景時的最佳選擇可以起到加強印象的效果。比較:I speak English.我講英語。/I am speak English now.我現(xiàn)在正在講英語。
7.I got very angry.
我很生氣。
語言點 比較I was very angry.我那時很生氣。/I got very angry.我變得很生氣。用get表示“變得”,強調(diào)變化的過程。get在作“變得”講時常后接形容詞,如got old變老;got hot變熱;got hungry感到饑餓;均有肩井的意味。
