词组 | somewhere |
释义 | Is it somewhere I know? 里的 somewhere 作 some place 解,被当作名词看待。I hope the cat has had somewhere warm to sleep these cold nights 里的 warm 修饰 somewhere。 soon(er) 1.soon 是“不久以后”,不是“立刻”,如不该说 When she heard the knock, she opened the door soon。该把 soon 改作 immediately,instantly 或 at once。 2.下面每组里的两句意思相同: 注意:(1)as soon as 比 no sooner...than 普通。(2)as soon as 引导的是从属分句,no sooner 却用在主句里。(3)用了 no sooner 通常用过去完成时态。(4)第二组第二句里 No sooner 用在句首,所以用 had I 而不用 I had。 3.as soon as 所引导的从句里不可用进行时态,如不可说 She opened the door as soon as I was knocking 或 I shall let you know as soon as he is arriving,该把 was knocking 改作 knocked,把 is arriving 改作 arrives。 4.no sooner...than 几乎不用在现在时态或将来时态,如最好不说: As a rule, she no sooner hears a knock than she opens the door. She will no sooner hear a knock than she opens the door. 可以改作: As a rule, she opens the door as soon as she hears a knock. She will open the door as soon as she hears a knock. 我见过下面两句,都是含有“偏偏这样”的意思的: No sooner do I get a good charwoman than she falls ill. It's a most extraordinary thing, but no sooner do I begin to do well in anything, than something happens to throw me down and I have to start all over again. 5.下面两句里的 am 和 are 不可改作 shall be 和 will be: I will write again as soon as I am free. Come and see us as soon as you are in this neighbourhood. 6.so soon as 比as soon as 语气重些,但很不普通。 7.注意下面各句的意思: He would as soon kill himself as betray his country. (直译:1.他愿自杀,跟愿卖国一样。2.他不愿卖国,正如他的不愿自杀,他极不愿卖国。) She could as soon fly through a mountain as drive a car. (直译:1.她能够穿山而飞,如能够驾驶汽车一样。2.她不会驾驶汽车,正如她不能穿山而飞。3.她决不会驾驶汽车。) You might as soon expect help from a stone as from him. (直译:1.你可以希望一块石头帮助你,跟你可以希望他帮助你一样。2.你不可以希望他帮助你,正如你不可希望一块石头帮助你。3.你决不可希望他帮助你,他决不会帮助你。) |
