(1)“not so +形容词+ as”引导的是比较状语从句,表示较低的程度,通常译为“不如……那样……”cf.本课语法) (2)once表示“以前”、“曾经”时只能与动词的过去式连用: He once worked at a large company. 他曾经在一家大公司工作过 2.The temptation to steal is greater than ever before…偷窃的诱惑力比以往任何时候都更剧烈…… (1)不定式to steal为temptation的定语,说明是什么样的诱惑 to引导不定式和to作为介词的区分很大: The temptation to smoke is strong for him. 对他来说吸烟有很强的诱惑力to smoke为不定式) The cake on the table is a great temptation to the child. 桌上的蛋糕对那孩子是个极大的诱惑to the child为介词短语) (2)ever用于表示比较的.从句中时意义为“曾经”、“以往任何时候”在这句话中,省略的成分比较多,与ever before相比的是隐含的时间now,从句中省略成分为it was(在ever之前)。
大多数含有比较状语从句的句子都可以省略句中的成分 3.on Monday mornings,在星期一上午 morning用复数形式是表示常常性的状况,它前面有修饰词Monday,所以介词要用on 4.One Monday, there were fewer people in the shop than usual when the woman came in, so it was easier for the detective to watch her.有一个星期一,当这位妇女走进这家商场时,里面的人比平常少,因此,侦探比较简单监视她 (1)one在此处表示“某一个”,不能用a代替 (2)这个句子较长,there were引导的是主句,when引导的是它的时间状语从句,so引导的是结果状语从句,在主句和结果状语从句中又分别隐含比较状语从句在结果状语从句中,it为先行词,真正的主语是不定式短语for the detective to watch her不定式短语往往较长,作主语时通常要用先行词it作为形式主语: It is easy for you to help me. 你帮助我是很简单的。
5.as quickly as possible,以最快的速度 as…as possible为固定短语,表示“尽可能”: He went home as soon as possible. 他尽快回了家 I have sent you as many books as possible. 我已经把书尽可能多地给你送来了 6.Then the woman simply took the parcel and walked out of the shop without paying.然后,那妇女拿过包就走出了商场,根本没有付钱 simply表示“仅仅”、“只”,有加强语气的作用连词and表示动作的连续,相当于and thenwithoug paying可以当成是整个句子的方式状语,即那妇女没有,……就……paying为动名词 7.The girl‘gave’her mother a free dress once a week!那姑娘每星期“送”她母亲一件免费的衣服! (1)gave加引号,表示姑娘不是真正给,而是偷 (2)free在这里的含义为“免费的”、“不要钱的”: Children under five years old travel free. 5岁以下儿童免费旅行。
Tom gave me two free tickets. 汤姆给了我两张免费的票 (3)“once a+表示时间的名词”可以表示频率: He comes to the office once a day. 他每天来办公室一次 Frank writes to his mother once a month. 弗兰克每个月给他母亲写一次信 语法Grammar in use 1.比较状语从句 在第8课的语法中,我们学习了形容词和副词的比较级和最高级在比较级的用法中,事实上我们已接触到比较状语从句: I know him better than you do. 我比你了解他than后面为比较状语从句) 比较状语从句含有或暗含有“与……相比”的意思除了than…或more… than… 这种结构外,它还包括as+形容词/副词+as…, not so/as… as…, less… than…等结构当句子里两个动词相同、时态也一样时,则第2个动词可以省略,比较从句就成了含蓄的从句假如对比的东西很明显,那么为了避开重复,从句中有些成分、甚至整个从句都可以省略,因此这类句子往往不完整。
比较完整的句子读起来要正规些: People aren't so kind as they used to be. 人们不再像以前那样友善了 No,they're becoming less kind. 是的,他们变得不那么友善了省略了从句) 2.little和few的用法 little和a little与不行数名词一起运用 little表示否定,有“几乎一点儿也没有”的含义,在口语中我们常用not much: He has (very) little hope of winning this race. He hasn't much hope of winning this race. 他几,乎没有希望赢得这场竞赛 a little表示确定,具有some的含义: Have we got any bread? 咱们有面包吗? Yes,there's a little/some in the fridge. 是的,冰箱里有点儿/有一些 few和a few与复数可数名词连用 few表示否定,与little相像,在口语中我们多用not many; a few与a little相像,有some的含义: They had few guests last weekend. They didn't have many guests last weekend. 上个周末几乎没有客人去他们那里。
little的比较级为less,few的比较级为fewer: Is the airport as busy as usual? 机场像平常一样繁忙吗?
