别抱怨英语只会写简单句,长难句看新概念英语3怎么写,手把手教
今日文章解读:
Mr. Taylor, the owner of a jewellery shop was admiring a new display. Two of his assistants had been working busily since eight o'clock and had only just finished.
珠宝店主泰勒先生正在欣赏新布置的橱窗。他手下两名店员从早上8点就开始忙碌,这时刚刚布置完毕。
(1)同位语从句Mr. Taylor, the owner of a jewellery shop was admiring a new display.
从句子含义里可以看出,the owner of a jewellery shop是用来补充说明Mr. Taylor的,这就是同位语的作用。我们在写作文的时候也可以用同位语,因为这个用法又简单又不容易出错。需要注意的一点就是,逗号左右所表示的成分要一致。在这个句子中,两者均可以做主语,删掉一个,不影响句子的成分完整性。
Mr. Smith, our new teacher, is very kind to us. 我们的新老师史密斯先生对我们很好。
在之前的章节有过同位语,当一个句子中出现两个逗号时,可以将两个逗号之间的内容去掉(加快阅读速度作用)。但在写作文时,可以用这种方式写点“废话”凑字数的。
(2)since的用法
Two of his assistants had been working busily since eight o'clock and had only just finished.
在这个句子中,since引导着时间状语从句,表示“自从……开始”
但since还可以表示原因状语从句,比如:
I'm forever on a diet, since I put on weight easily. 我一直在节食,因为我的体重很容易增加。
引导原因状语从句的单词也有一些,比如:
as: 从属连词,语意较because,since弱,着重在主句,所表示的原因或理由是“附带的”。
because: 从属连词,语意强,着重直接的原因或理由,所引出的从句是全句的重心,用以回答why提出的问题。
for: 并列连词,语气较弱,所引出的句子一般放在后面,表示附带说明的理由或推断理由。
since: 语意比because弱,但比as强,一般用于表示“由于大家已知的事实”。
