Grammar: 并列句与状语从句
一.并列句
由两个或两个以上并列而又独立的简单句构成,这些简单句常由并列连词连在一起。
常见并列连词:
1. 表示递进:and, not only…but (also)…, neither…nor…等
2. 表示选择:or, either…or…, otherwise等
注意:(就近原则)谓语动词的单复数要和与它邻近的主语的数保持一致
e.g. Either he or I am living here.
Neither he nor I am living here. Not only he but also I am living here.
3. 表示转折:but, yet, whereas, while(“而,却”,表示对比), not…but…等
e.g. He likes pop music, while I am fond of folk music.
4. 表示因果:so, for
二.状语从句
由从句担任的状语,在句子中可修饰谓语(或其它动词)、形容词、副词或是整个句子,它可以用来表示时间、地点、原因、目的、结果、条件、方式、比较、让步等。
(一)时间状语从句
表示时间的状语从句可由when, as, while, whenever, after, before, till/until, not…until, since, once, as soon as (或the moment ), no sooner…than…, hardly/scarcely…when…, by the time, every time等引导。
e.g. When I came into the office, the teachers were having a meeting.
Once you see him, you will never forget him.
注意事项:
1. no sooner…than…, hardly/scarcely…when…结构中的时态搭配
no sooner与hardly/scarcely引导的句子谓语v.应用过去完成式,而than与when引导的句子谓语v.应用一般过去式。此外,当把no sooner与hardly/scarcely提到句首时,从句应用倒装语序。
e.g. I had hardly got home when it began to rain. = Hardly had I got home when it began to rain.
2. not…until句型中的倒装用法
e.g. Not until you told me did I have any idea of it. (not until置于句首,主句要倒装)
3. since引导的从句的时态若是一般过去时,主句中的时态是现在完成时或现在完成进行时。
e.g. I have written home four times since I came here.
She has been working in this factory since she left school.
(二)地点状语从句
引导地点状语从句的连词是where 和wherever等。
e.g. Sit wherever you like.
Make a mark where you have a question.
(三)原因状语从句
原因状语从句是表示原因或理由的,引导这类从句的最常用的连词是because, since, as , now that(既然), seeing that, considering that等。
(because不能与so连用;一些介词短语如because of, thanks to, due to, owing to等也可以表示原因)
e.g. He is disappointed because he didn't get the position.
As it is raining, I will not go out. Now that you mention it, I do remember.
(for 表示因果关系时(它引导的不是从句)为并列连词,语气不如because强)
(四)条件状语从句
条件状语从句分真实性(有可能实现的事情)与非真实性(条件与事实相反或者在说话者看来不大可能实现的事情)条件句。引导条件状语从句的词(组)主要有:if, unless, so/as long as(只要), in case(万一), on condition that(条件是), suppose/
