重要句子解析
It was disturbing and frightening that he looked so human.
It為形式主語(yǔ),真正主語(yǔ)是that從句。
As she turned around,there stood Gladys Claffern.
她剛一轉(zhuǎn)過(guò)身去,就看到格拉迪斯.克拉芬站在那里。
there stood Gladys Claffern為倒裝句。
在謂語(yǔ)為動(dòng)詞go,come.run.stand,live等表示位置轉(zhuǎn)移的動(dòng)詞及be動(dòng)詞的句子中,為了強(qiáng)調(diào)句子中一些副詞there,here,up,down,in,out,away等,可將副詞置于句首,若這時(shí)主語(yǔ)是名詞,句子用全部倒裝;若是代詞,則不用倒裝。
①There comes the teacher and her students.
老師和她的學(xué)生們來(lái)了。
②Out rushed the boys.
男孩們沖了出去。
即境活用
-Look!There (B).
-Oh,there ( ).
A comes the bus;comes it
B comes the bus;it comes
C the bus comes.it comes
D the bus comes;comes it
答案:B
解析:考查全部倒裝。注意主語(yǔ)是代詞時(shí),不到裝,故選B。
Claire thought it was ridiculous to be offered sympathy by a robot.
1)to be offered 是不定式的被動(dòng)式,在賓語(yǔ)從句中作真正的主語(yǔ),it是形式主語(yǔ)。不定式的被動(dòng)式可在句中作多種成分,是高考的熱點(diǎn)之一。
【考例 1】The children talked so loudly at dinner table that I had to struggle (A).
A to be heard B to have heard C hearing D being heard
[點(diǎn)撥]struggle to do sth.努力做某事,又因I與hear之間構(gòu)成邏輯上的被動(dòng)關(guān)系,所以用不定式的被動(dòng)式,故選A.
【考例 2】It took a long time for the connection between body temperature and illness(B).
A to make B to be made C making D being made
[點(diǎn)撥] 根據(jù)“It takes/took (sb.)+一段時(shí)間+to do sth."可排除C、D,再根據(jù)make與connection 構(gòu)成動(dòng)賓關(guān)系,所以用不定式的被動(dòng)式,故選B.
2)sympathy 同情心,同感
express sympathy for ....對(duì)...表示慰問(wèn)
a letter of sympathy 慰問(wèn)信
feel/have sympathy for.. 同情....
I felt much sympathy for the blind.
be in sympathy with... 贊同....
But even though Tony had been so clever,he would have to be rebuilt--you can not have women falling in love with machines.
但是,盡管托尼很聰明,他還得經(jīng)過(guò)一番改造----你總不能讓女人與機(jī)器相愛吧。
have sb. doing 意為”叫/讓/使某人某做事或讓某種情況發(fā)生“。賓語(yǔ)后面用現(xiàn)在分詞做賓語(yǔ)補(bǔ)足語(yǔ),表示賓語(yǔ)與現(xiàn)在分詞表示的動(dòng)作之間為主動(dòng)關(guān)系,且動(dòng)作正在進(jìn)行或一直進(jìn)行。Won't have sb. doing意為“不讓某人做某事”。
①Don't have the baby crying!不要讓嬰兒啼哭!
②You'd better have your car running slowly.
你最好把車子開慢點(diǎn)兒。
③I won't have you talking to your mother like that.
我不允許你這樣與你媽媽說(shuō)話。
拓展:(1)have sb. do 讓某人做某事(do 表示動(dòng)作由sb.發(fā)出)
(2)have sb./sth. done 使某事被別人做(sb./sth.與動(dòng)詞do構(gòu)成動(dòng)賓關(guān)系)
(3)have sth to do有事要做(to do做后置定語(yǔ)修飾sth,該不定式的動(dòng)作由主語(yǔ)發(fā)出)
(4)have sth to be done 有事要做(to do 做后置定語(yǔ)修飾sth.但不定式的動(dòng)作不是由主語(yǔ)發(fā)出的,而是別人)
①I'll have the gardener plant some trees.
我要讓園丁種些樹。
②Why don't you have your hair cut?
你為什么不理發(fā)?
③I have some clothes to wash.
我有些衣服要洗。(洗衣服是主語(yǔ)發(fā)出的動(dòng)作)
④I have some clothes to be washed.
我有些衣服要洗。(洗衣服不是主語(yǔ)發(fā)出的動(dòng)作,由別人來(lái)做)
