第一步:四級精彩套句展示
I like traveling, and I will do my best to share the fun of traveling with others.
同學們總是習慣寫簡單句,把句子寫成了:I like traveling. I will do my best to share the fun of traveling with others.而四級考試要求大家多寫長句,and…結(jié)構(gòu)就是一個簡單好用的長句結(jié)構(gòu)。只要把兩個主語一樣的句子間的句號改成逗號,再加上and就可以了。有時還可以把后一句的主語省略。例如:It appears mysteriously and spreads spontaneously in many different forms.
以and, or, but等連接的簡單句,掌握熟練的話,會讓我們的文章流暢自然。
第二步:語法精講
1. 簡介
并列句是英語中廣泛存在的一種句型,其特點是用表示并列關(guān)系的連詞將兩個獨立的句子聯(lián)系起來。主要用or和and來連接。
2. 四級必備套句
(1)Work hard, and you will finally be able to reach your destination.努力工作,你就能實現(xiàn)你的最終目標。
【分析】“命令式+and”在表示條件時,表示“你要…才會…”的意思。在寫作里面可以用來提出建議。“名詞+and”句式有時也可以用來表示條件,如:One more effort, and you will be successful.
(2)Study hard, or you will fail to pass the exam.如果你不努力學習,你將無法通過考試。
【分析】“命令式+or”句式表示“你要…否則…”或“否則的話”等意思。
第三步:練習與進步
A. 翻譯
1. 說話大聲點,教室里的學生才能聽到你講的內(nèi)容。
2. 你要早點出發(fā),這樣才能提前到達那里。
3. 要是你違反了法律,你將會被警察逮捕。
4. 輕點兒走,否則你會弄出聲響兒吵醒嬰兒。
5. 仔細點兒讀這本書,否則你將無法理解其主題思想。
6. 如果再來一次這樣的暴風雨,所有的莊稼都將被毀。
7. 說曹操,曹操就到。
8. 快點,否則你要遲到了。
9. 快點走,否則就趕不上早班車了。
10. 努力學習,你就能夠通過這次考試。
注意:“命令式+and”表示條件時,表示“你要…才會…”的意思;“命令式+or”句式表示“你要…否則…”或“否則的話”等意思;同時,要注意“名詞+and”句式有時也可以用來表示條件。這三種類型有一個共同特點就是and或or后面的從句要用一般將來時態(tài)。
