104. Only an aggressive research and development might find ways of breaking our dependence on fossil fuels or dealing with it.
譯文
只有通過積極的研究和開發(fā),才可能找到方法打破現有的對礦物燃料的依賴或解決這一問題。
點睛
本句是only置于句首的強調句型,其主干是an aggressive research and development might find ways。由of引導的介詞短語of breaking our dependence on fossil fuels or dealing with it在句中作后置定語,用來修飾ways。
aggressive的意思是“有進取精神的;好斗的”。如:
To be a winner in the hot competition, you must be aggressive. 要想在激烈的競爭中獲勝,你必須有進取心。
find ways of doing sth.意為“找到做某事的方法”。fossil fuels的意思是“礦物燃料”。
deal with的意思是“處理,應對”。如:
I think we should work out a strategy to deal with this situation. 我想我們應該制訂一項行動計劃來應對這種情況。
考點歸納
only位于句首表強調的情況。
only位于句首時表強調,可以強調主語,也可以強調狀語。應注意:
當only位于句首強調狀語時,主句要用倒裝語序,從句用正常語序。而被強調的狀語一般為副詞短語、介詞短語或狀語從句(包括when引導的從句),或者是then, in this way等。如:
Only when I tried to unlock the door, did I realize that I had left my key in the room. 直到我想開門時,我才意識到我把鑰匙落在了房間里。
當only位于句首強調主語時,句子應用正常語序。如:
Only a hard study can help you pass the exam. 只有努力學習,你才能通過考試。
