微技能二 句式升级策略
在写作中,恰当地运用高级句式是获得高分的必备条件。在写作时,要有意识地把背诵过的句式尝试运用到写作中去,碰到一个句子时,要想一想有没有更好的表达句式。学会用英语思维,养成用英语高级句式写作的习惯。 一、简单句和并列句升级策略 1.添加副词 He won the game.
句子前:Fortunately, he won the game. 句子后:He won the game fortunately. 句子中间:
①He fortunately won the game. ②He has fortunately won the game. 2.运用介词短语
He didn’t give us answers immediately, but he encouraged us to think by ourselves. →Instead of giving us answers immediately, he encouraged us to think by ourselves. 3.运用分词结构
I don’t know about others, but I used to have to work even at weekends and do endless homework and attending classes as well.
→I don’t know about others, but I used to have to work even at weekends doing endless homework and attending classes as well.
Thomas Edison was Born in America, and he was a great scientist and inventor. →Born in America, Thomas Edison was a great scientist and inventor. 4.运用with结构
Our country develops in economy; people are living a better life.
→With the economic development of our country, people are living a better life. 5.运用动词的“强化表达” sb do sth
→sb have__no__choice__but__to__do sth
别无选择做某事
→sb do__whatever__he__can__to__do sth 尽可能做某事
→sb find/believe__it__necessary/important/challenging__to__do sth 发现/相信做某事有必要/很重要/有挑战性 He takes good care of his grandparents.
→He has no choice but to believe it necessary to do whatever he can to take good care of his grandparents. 二、复合句升级策略
1.用which引导的非限制性定语从句合并和升级句子
We’ll also spend some fun time together, singing, dancing and playing games.We hope it will make them happy.
→We’ll also spend some fun time together, singing, dancing and playing games,which we hope will make them happy. 2.学会用what和that引导的名词性从句
In addition,what may interest you most (主语从句)is that I am really nervous and upset (表语从句)when taking the exam. 三、特殊句式升级策略 1.强调句型
强调句型的使用是为了突出强调句子的某一部分,它是一种比较容易掌握的高级表达方式。其构成:It is/was+被强调部分+that/who+其他。 We created a harmonious atmosphere with sincerity and faithfulness.
→It was with sincerity and faithfulness that we created a harmonious atmosphere. 2.倒装句
在写作中倒装句应用比较广泛,涉及的句型也比较多,包括部分倒装和全部倒装。常见的有:
(1)“only+状语”置于句首时,句子用部分倒装。
People from all over the world can only in this way communicate easily and effectively.
→Only in this way can people from all over the world communicate easily and effectively.
(2)none, neither, nor, not, never, hardly, little, seldom等否定词,以及由no构成的否定短语如at no time, by no means等置于句首时,句子用部分倒装。 We should ignore exam anxiety on no account. →On no account should we ignore exam anxiety.
(3)在so/such...that...结构中,当so/such ...位于句首时,其后的句子用部分倒装。 I was so excited that I couldn’t wait to try my hand at riding it.However, it was harder than expected.
→So excited was I that I couldn’t wait to try my hand at riding it.However, it was harder than expected. (4)被动结构升级策略
People have different opinions on the question. →Opinions are divided on the question.
We should adopt proper measures to deal with it before it is too late. →Proper measures should be adopted to deal with it before it is too late. 【温馨提示】 更多高级句型见P169“语料积累”。 【即时演练】
