Read and Think
句子 1:The first week was a little confusing.
名词短语:The first week
分析:以名词 “week” 为中心词,“The first” 是修饰词(序数词 + 定冠词),共同构成名词短语。
功能:在句中作主语,表明句子描述的对象是 “第一周”。
形容词短语:a little confusing
分析:以形容词 “confusing” 为中心词,“a little” 是副词性修饰词,用于说明程度。
功能:在句中作表语,描述 “the first week” 的性质状态,即第一周的感觉是 “有点令人困惑的”。
句子 2:She thinks and speaks quite quickly.
副词短语:quite quickly
分析:以副词 “quickly” 为中心词,“quite” 是副词修饰词,用于加强程度。
功能:在句中修饰动词 “thinks and speaks”,说明动作进行的方式,即 “思考和说话的速度相当快”。
句子 3:I found most of my classmates and teachers friendly and helpful.
名词短语:most of my classmates and teachers
分析:以名词 “classmates” 和 “teachers” 为中心词,“most of my” 是限定性修饰词。
功能:在句中作宾语,是动词 “found” 的承受对象,表明 “我” 发现的对象是 “我的大多数同学和老师”。
形容词短语:friendly and helpful
分析:由两个并列的形容词 “friendly” 和 “helpful” 构成,无额外修饰词,属于简单形容词短语。
功能:在句中作宾语补足语,补充说明宾语 “most of my classmates and teachers” 的性质,即他们 “友好且乐于助人”。
句子 4:My favourite subject is English because my English teacher is really interesting.
名词短语:My favourite subject
分析:以名词 “subject” 为中心词,“My favourite” 是形容词性修饰词(物主代词 + 形容词)。
功能:作主语,表明句子描述的核心对象是 “我最喜欢的学科”。
名词短语:my English teacher
分析:以名词 “teacher” 为中心词,“my English” 是限定性修饰词(物主代词 + 名词作定语)。
功能:在原因状语从句中作主语,说明从句描述的对象是 “我的英语老师”。
形容词短语:really interesting
分析:以形容词 “interesting” 为中心词,“really” 是副词修饰词,用于强调程度。
功能:在原因状语从句中作表语,描述 “my English teacher” 的性质,即老师 “非常有趣”。
句子 5:We had a lot of fun playing basketball on the playground yesterday.
名词短语:a lot of fun
分析:以名词 “fun” 为中心词,“a lot of” 是数量限定性修饰词。
功能:在句中作宾语,是动词 “had” 的承受对象,表明 “我们拥有的是许多乐趣”。
副词短语:本句时间状语 “yesterday” 和地点状语 “on the playground” 为介词短语,非副词短语,故无副词短语。
Conclusions:
名词短语:核心是名词,前常接冠词、形容词、物主代词等修饰词,常作主语、宾语。
形容词短语:核心是形容词,前可接副词修饰程度,常作表语、定语或宾语补足语。
副词短语:核心是副词,前可接其他副词修饰程度,主要修饰动词、形容词或副词,说明动作的方式、程度等。
1. 用“△”标出下列句子中的名词短语:
① The old man walks in the park every morning.
② Her new dress looks very beautiful.
③ We bought three red apples in the shop.
practice
① The old man△ walks in the park△ every morning.
(解析:“The old man”中“man”是名词,“The old”修饰;“the park”中“park”是名词,“the”修饰)
② Her new dress△ looks very beautiful.
③ We bought three red apples△ in the shop△.
识别下列的短语类型
① a very tall building ( )
② runs extremely fast ( )
③ feels quite cold ( )
④ five lovely children ( )

① (名词短语)
② (副词短语)

3. 用指定的短语完善下列句子:

① She sings very beautifully.
② The cat is so cute when sleeping.
③ He has an interesting story book.
4. 改正错误:
① This is a book interesting very. → ____________________
② He speaks English good very. → ____________________
① This is a very interesting book.(形容词短语语序:修饰词+形容词+名词)
② He speaks English very well.(副词短语语序:修饰词+副词,注意“good”需变为副词“well”)
