条件状语从句50
常见的连接词语有:if, if only, in case, suppose (that), supposing (that), unless, as far as, as long as, given (that), granted (that), granting (that), once, on (the) condition (that), only if, provided (that), providing (that), so far as, so long as, so that, suppose (that), supposing (that), unless, when, where, wherever, while, in the event (that), presuming (that)等28个。
以上这些表示主从句条件关系的连接词语——在日常英语(交际、课本、真题、模拟试题等)中出现频率较高,各大词典、考题也是所见例句较多,故这里并不列举对应实例;且因其常见,重要性不言而喻,须一个一个吃透其真意,而后应用、讲解方可得心应手。
对应的方式方法不外乎是
——从英文词典中找到对应的词条,查看对应含义,
并逐渐地转化成(最好是内化成——习得)自己理解的、也可随时讲述的语句,
同时对照考题(真题、模拟试题、练习题)
——寻找其考查路径,知其然且要知其所以然。
作为师者——务必相应的内容要高于学生所知所晓,且可用聆听者可理解、明白、领悟的语言讲述,并逐渐使之理解掌握,而非仅仅成为一个传声筒、播放器——真要那样的话,人工智能就可随时取代我等——不可不觉察。
不很常见的连接词语有:but, but that, but what, as the case may be, assuming (that), except (that), for all I/we know, in so far as, just so, on the assumption that, on/with the stipulation that, on the supposition that, on the understanding that, save that, saving that, so, with the provision that, with the proviso that, with the stipulation that, with the understanding that, without (that), only that等22个——故下面配有例句。
