考點(diǎn)6 省略和替代

(2)并列句的省略
為使句子簡潔,在無損句子完整的前提下常省略相同成分。

3)省略不定式符號(hào)to,不定式作動(dòng)詞make/let以及感官動(dòng)詞的賓語補(bǔ)足語時(shí)要省略to,但變成被動(dòng)語態(tài)不能省略。
The boss made the workers work all day and all night. 老板讓這些工人日夜工作。
The workers were made to work all day and all night. 工人們被迫日夜工作。
4)在密切聯(lián)系的語境中,為避免重復(fù),作賓語或賓語補(bǔ)足語的不定式只保留to。

除非老師要求,否則不要碰任何東西。

替代有三種:名詞性替代,動(dòng)詞性替代和分句性替代。
(1)名詞性替代常用one, it, that, those, the same和人稱代詞或物主代詞。

(4)關(guān)于替代詞so
so用于替代賓語從句的分句,表示說話者贊同上述情況。適用于這種情況的表示看法、意見等的動(dòng)詞有think, believe, expect, suppose, imagine, guess, say, hope, fear, be afraid等。
think so, believe so, except so等變?yōu)榉穸ㄐ问接袃煞N途徑:
1)用動(dòng)詞的否定形式。
2)用not代替so。
但be afraid so, fear so, hope so等變?yōu)榉穸ㄐ问街挥玫?種方法。
注意
與so有關(guān)的兩個(gè)句型:
① 表示說話者贊同上述事實(shí):So+主語+連系動(dòng)詞(助動(dòng)詞或情態(tài)動(dòng)詞)。
—It was cold yesterday. 昨天挺冷。
—So it was. 的確冷。
② 表示上述情況也適用于另一主語的句型
· 通用句型:so it is(was)with+另一主語。

他是個(gè)農(nóng)民。他的弟弟也是。
· 只用于肯定情況的句型:So+連系動(dòng)詞(助動(dòng)詞或情態(tài)動(dòng)詞)+另一主語。

· 否定情況則使用:Neither(Nor)+連系動(dòng)詞(助動(dòng)詞或情態(tài)動(dòng)詞)+另一主語。
