1. To us, learning Chinese may not be as simple as learning French or German, but I am looking forward to having a go.
(1) 分析结构:这是一个由but连接的并列句,连接两个主系表结构。
拓展:并列句是由并列连词把两个或两个以上的简单句连在一起的句子。通常有四种基本类型:
(1) 用连词and 表示并列,各成分之间没有主次之分。
(2) 使用but 表示转折,强调两个句子的对比。
(3) 使用or 表示选择,从两者中选择一个。
(4) 使用so 表示因果,强调一者是另一者的原因。
Language points
(2) 前句结构分析:learning Chinese may not be as simple as learning French or German为主系表结构,主语是动名词短语“learning Chinese”,复合谓语由“情态动词(may)+ 否定词(not)+ 系动词(be)”构成,表语为含比较结构的形容词短语“as simple as learning French or German”。
拓展:在英语中,单个动名词作主语时,谓语动词用单数;当主语是多个动名词短语并列作主语,谓语动词一般用复数。
e.g. Reading books is fun. 读书是有趣的。
Cooking and baking are my hobbies. 烹饪和烘焙是我的爱好。
