Grammar point 3
[句式解构] 本句是简单句。Turning around是现在分词短语,置于句首,作时间状语,相当于时间状语从句When I turned around。现在分词作状语时,表示与主语之间构成主动关系。
❶Opening the window, I saw a butterfly flying into my room.打开窗户,我看见一只蝴蝶飞进我的房间。
❷Arriving in Paris, I lost my way. 到达巴黎后,我迷路了。
(1)现在分词(短语)作时间状语时,分词的逻辑主语为句子的主语;
(2)现在分词(短语)作时间状语时,可以转换成时间状语从句。
(3)现在分词(短语)作时间状语时,分词所表示的动作与谓语动词所表示的动作一般同时或几乎同时发生。
“How true these words were!
Grammar point 4
“How”型感叹句
1. How+adj/adv. (+主+谓)!
eg. How tall the boy is! 那个男孩好高啊!
How hard Mary works! Mary工作好努力啊!
2. How+adj.+a/an+可数名词单数(+主+谓)!
eg.How beautiful a girl she is!
她是一个多么美的女孩啊!
“What”型感叹句
1. What+a/an+adj+可数名词单数(+主+谓)!
eg. What an honest boy (he is)!
(他是)一个多么诚实的男孩啊!
2. What+adj.+可数名词复数(+主+谓)!
eg.What brave students they are!
他们是多么勇敢的学生们啊!
3. What+adj+不可数名词(+主+谓)!
eg. What cool weather it is! 多么凉爽的天气啊!
做题技巧:
How用来感叹形容词、副词或动词
What用来感叹被形容词修饰的名词
I had been too nervous to pay attention when he introduced himself!
too...to...结构,意为 “太...而不能...”
too后面跟adj.或adv.
to后面跟动词原型
eg. The book is too difficult (for us) to read.
这本书太难了,我们读不了。
并非所有too...to...结构都表示否定,下列情况下表示肯定:
(1)否定词never, not等用在too之前 “越...越好”,“再怎么...也不为过”
(2)too后面跟的是glad,pleased, surprised, happy, eager, anxious, ready等表示主语
态度、情感、心情、倾向性的形容词时
Grammar point 5
Although I was embarrassed, his words made me a lot more relaxed!
此句式属于“make+宾语+宾语补足语”的结构

③make+名词/代词+过去分词 “使某人/某物被......”
eg. He can make himself understood in English. 他能用英语让别人理解他的意思。

2. Do you think Meng Hao’s first day at senior high was a good new start? Why or why not?
