  一、人稱代詞

  (一)人稱代詞的主格、賓格

  人稱代詞的主格在句中作主語、表語,賓格作及物動詞或介詞的賓語,主格和賓格不可混用。

  例句: When school was over, Jack and me went home together.

  分析: me應改為I,因為它處在主語的位置上。

  譯文:Jack和我在放學后一起回家。

  例句: Each cigarette which a person smokes does some harm, and eventually he may get a serious disease from its effect. (1996年第14題)

  分析: 該句是復合句,其中which a person smokes是修飾each cigarette的定語從句,he指代前面的a person。

  譯文: 一個人吸的每一支煙都對他的身體有害,最終他將因吸煙患上一種嚴重的疾病。

  (二) it的用法

  1. 代替除人以外的一切生物或事物(可代替單個詞、詞組或句子)。

  例句: The ideal listener stays both inside and outside the music at the moment it is played and enjoys it almost as much as the composer at the moment he composes. (2000年第19題)

  分析: 該句是復合句,其中he composes是省略了關系代詞which/that的定語從句,修飾the moment, 而almost as much as the composer作狀語修飾enjoys。

  譯文: 理想的聽眾是當音樂奏響時既能置身其中又可超然其外的人,并且?guī)缀蹩梢韵褡髑以趧?chuàng)作音樂時那樣享受音樂。

  例句: You have saved my life and I will never forget it.

  分析: it指you have saved my life。

  譯文: 你曾經(jīng)挽救過我的生命,我決不會忘記這件事。

  2. 表示時間、距離、天氣等自然現(xiàn)象。

  例句: It is time now to tell the Americans they are on the wrong track.

  譯文: 現(xiàn)在是時候告訴美國人他們走錯路了。

  例句: She didn't come back until it was 12:00.

  譯文: 直到12點她才回來。

  例句: It is about 50 miles to school.

  譯文: 到學校大概50英里。

  3. 作形式主語(真正的主語為動名詞、不定式或主語從句)

  例句: But it's interesting to wonder if the images we see every week of stress free, happiness enhancing parenthood aren't in some small, subconscious way contributing to our own dissatisfactions with the actual experience. (選自2011年Text 4)

  分析: 該句是復合句。其中it是形式主語,真正的主語是to wonder if the images aren't contributing to our own dissatisfactions with the actual experience;we see every week of stress free, happiness enhancing parenthood是一個定語從句,修飾the images;介詞短語in some small, subconscious way作狀語,表示方式。

  譯文: 我們想知道每周看到的“毫無壓力、提升幸福感”的為人父母形象是否在以某種細微的、潛意識的方式加劇我們對現(xiàn)行生活體驗的不滿呢?這很有意思。

  例句: In fact, it is difficult to see how journalists who do not have a clear grasp of the basic features of the Canadian Constitution can do a competent job on political stories. (2007年第49題)

  分析: 該句是復合句。it是形式主語,定語從句who do not have a clear grasp...Constitution修飾journalists,can do是賓語從句how...的謂語部分。

  譯文: 事實上,很難想象那些對加拿大憲法的基本要點缺乏清晰了解的新聞記者能勝任政治新聞的報道工作。

  4. 作形式賓語

  例句: The financial crisis has made it more acceptable to be between jobs or to leave a bad one. (選自2011年Text 2)

  分析: 該句是簡單句。其中it作形式賓語,真正的賓語是to be between jobs or to leave a bad one,more acceptable作賓語補足語。

  譯文: 金融危機已經(jīng)使得等待工作機會或者辭去糟糕的工作這種行為更容易被人接受了。

  例句: There are over 100 night schools in the city, making it possible for a professional to be reeducated no matter what he does. (1998年第7題)

  分析: 該句是簡單句。no matter what he does在句中作狀語,表示讓步,分詞短語making...作over 100 night schools的補足語。

  譯文: 這個城市有100多所夜校,這使得專業(yè)人員無論從事什么工作都有可能接受再教育。

  5. 引出強調(diào)句(強調(diào)謂語以外的其他成分)

  用強調(diào)句型: It is/was+被強調(diào)部分+that(who/whom/which)+其他部分,被強調(diào)部分常為主語(從句)、賓語(從句)、狀語(從句),強調(diào)狀語時不能用when或where,要用that,翻譯成漢語時被強調(diào)部分常用“是”、“正是”等來表示強調(diào)含義。判斷是不是強調(diào)句的標準是去掉“it is/was”和“that(who/whom/which)”,如果余下部分是一個完整的句子,說明原句是一個強調(diào)句,否則就是一個由it作形式主語的句子。

  例句: It was during the same time that the communications revolution speeded up, beginning with transport, the railway, and leading on through the telegraph, the telephone, radio, and motion pictures into the 20th century world of the motor car and the airplane. (選自2002年Use of English)

  分析: 該句是復合句。分詞短語beginning with...作主語the communications revolution的補足語,該強調(diào)句強調(diào)狀語during the same time。

  譯文: 與此同時,通訊革命也在加速發(fā)展,從交通運輸、鐵路開始,發(fā)展到電報、電話、無線電和電影再到20世紀的汽車和飛機。

  例句: Perhaps it is humankind's long suffering at the mercy of flood and drought that makes the ideal of forcing the waters to do our bidding so fascinating. (選自1998年Text 1)

  分析: 該句是簡單句。句子主干為humankind's long suffering...makes...so fascinating。其中短語at the mercy of...意為“聽憑……擺布,完全受……支配”。

  譯文: 也許正是由于人類長期聽任旱澇之災的擺布,才使得讓洪水聽從人類的調(diào)遣這種理想令人如此癡迷。

  二、物主代詞

  (一)物主代詞包括形容詞性物主代詞和名詞性物主代詞

  形容詞性物主代詞只能修飾名詞而不能代替名詞,而名詞性物主代詞可以代替名詞詞組,即“形容詞性物主代詞+前面所提到的名詞”。

  例句: All the off shore oil explorers were in high spirits as they read affectionate letters from their families. (1998年第35題)

  (二)不同性別的形容詞性物主代詞修飾名詞。

  a/an/some/any/no/another/each/such/several/which/this/that/these/those+名詞+of+名詞性物主代詞。

  如:

  a book of mine

  no fault of hers

  that pen of his

  例句: In March 1998, a friend of Williams's got him involuntarily confined to a treatment center for additions, and wrote to inform the casino of Williams's gambling problems. (選自2006年Part B)

  四、相互代詞

  相互代詞只有each other和one another兩種,通常前者表示兩者之間的相互關系,后者表示兩者以上的人或事物之間的相互關系。

  譯文: 在意識形態(tài)中,語言、文化和個性可能被認為是相互獨立的,但事實上它們是不可分割的。

  例句: In Europe, as elsewhere, multi media groups have been increasingly successful groups which bring together television, radio, newspapers, magazines and publishing houses that work in relation to one another. (2005年第47題)

  分析: 該句是復合句。句子主干為multimedia groups have been increasingly successful groups。定語從句which bring together...修飾groups,其中television, radio, newspapers, magazines and publishing houses作bring的賓語,即bring...together, 另一個定語從句that work in relation to one another修飾其前面的幾個名詞。

  譯文: 在歐洲,像在其他地方一樣,傳媒集團擴張越來越成功,這些集團將相關的電視、 廣播、報紙、雜志和出版社組合在一起。

  分析: 該句是復合句,主句為We are obliged to them。because引導一個狀語從句,定語從句who spoke them修飾the peoples,as引導的句子可以看做插入語,補充說明 some of these languages have since vanished的原因。

  譯文: 我們之所以感激他們(兩位先驅(qū)),是因為在此以后,這些語言中有一些已經(jīng)不復存在了,這是由于使用這些語言的民族或是消亡了,或是被同化而喪失了自己的本族語言。

  (二)指示代詞that和those也可用于比較結構,表示前面提到的東西,避免重復

  例句: The number of registered participants in this year's marathon was half that of last year's. (1996年第7題)

  分析: 該句是簡單句,本句的主語是單數(shù)名詞number,因此后面指代它的代詞只能是單數(shù)that,謂語用單數(shù)。

  譯文: 今年登記參加馬拉松賽跑的人數(shù)是去年的一半。

  例句: His function is analogous to that of a judge, who must accept the obligation of revealing in as obvious a matter as possible the course of reasoning which led him to his decision. (2006年第47題)

  Such are the meanings of authentic love.

  (such作表語時,往往置于句首)

  注意: such用作定語時和副詞so的區(qū)別在前面副詞一節(jié)中已提到。

  (四)指示代詞same的用法

  在句中作主語、賓語、表語和定語,其前與定冠詞the連用。

  例句: Vitamins are similar because they are made of the same elements — usually carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and sometimes nitrogen. (選自1996年Cloze Test)

  分析: 該句是復合句。

  譯文: 因為是由同樣的元素構成——通常是碳、氫、氧,有時還有氮,所以各種維生素都很相似。

  六、疑問代詞

  例句:It's hard to imagine that many people are dumb enough to want children just because Reese and Angelina make it look so glamorous: most adults understand that a baby is not a haircut. (選自2011年Text 4)

  分析:該句是復合句。在主句中,it是形式主語,真正的主語是to imagine that many people are dumb enough to want children;在原因狀語從句中,it代表前面提到的to want children;冒號后的內(nèi)容是對前面內(nèi)容的解釋。

  譯文:很難想象,僅僅因為里斯和安吉麗娜使“生孩子”看起來頗具魅力,很多人就愚蠢地跟風效仿:大多數(shù)成年人都明白撫養(yǎng)孩子并不像理發(fā)那樣簡單。

  譯文: 其原因往往是母親對大腦已做好快速學習語言準備的嬰兒所發(fā)出的信號不敏感。

  1. 單獨使用時,most前無冠詞。

  例句: Some of the people stayed behind, but most went.

  2. most后帶有限制性定語從句時,前加the。

  例句: The most this hall can seat is 1,000.

  分析: 這是一個復合句,this hall can seat這個定語從句修飾the most。seat是動詞,意為“為……提供座位”。

  譯文: 這個大廳最多能容納一千人。

  3. most of the+復數(shù)名詞表示“大多數(shù)……”;most of+形容詞性物主代詞+單數(shù)名詞表示“大部分……”。

  4. most作副詞時構成形容詞或副詞的最高級;在通俗英語中most=very,修飾形容詞或副詞,most與mostly的區(qū)別在于后者作“大部分”講(=for the most part)。

  例句: The Eskimo is perhaps one of the most trusting and considerate of all Indians but seems to be indifferent to the welfare of his animals. (2001年第14題)

  例句: It may be said that the measure of the worth of any social institution is its effect in enlarging and improving experience; but this effect is not a part of its original motive. (2009年第46題)

  分析: 該句是由轉(zhuǎn)折連詞but連接的并列句,其中第一個分句中it作形式主語,真正的主語是that the measure of the worth...,of any social institution是worth的后置定語,in enlarging and improving experience是its effect的后置定語。

  譯文: 或許可以說,要衡量任何一種社會制度的價值就要看它在豐富和提升人們經(jīng)驗方面的影響,但是這種影響并不是其最初動機的一部分。

  (三)引導表語從句

  例句:One of the reasons why the appointment came as such a surprise, however, is that Gilbert is comparatively little known. (選自2011年Text 1)

  譯文: 然而,該任命顯得如此突然的原因之一就是吉爾伯特比較不為人知。

  例句: The notion is that people have failed to detect the massive changes which have happened in the ocean because they have been looking back only a relatively short time into the past. (選自2006年Text3)

  譯文: 這個概念是說人們沒有注意到發(fā)生在海洋里的巨大變化,因為人們只是回顧了過去很短一段時間。

  (四)同位語從句(通常由that引導,也可由whether,what,when,where,why,how引導,進一步說明其前名詞的具體內(nèi)容和含義)

  例句:Allen's contribution was to take an assumption we all share — that because we are not robots we therefore control our thoughts — and reveal its erroneous nature. (2011年第46題)

  譯文: 新聞記者應該比普通公民更加透徹地了解法律,但這種看法是基于他們對新聞媒體業(yè)已確立的規(guī)約和特殊責任的理解。

  (五)whatever, who(m)ever, whichever

  連接代詞what+ever指不定數(shù)目中無論什么,用于物;who(m)+ever指不定數(shù)目中無淪是誰,用于人;which+ever指確定數(shù)目中無論哪一個,用于人或物。

  例句: Now that you have developed a topic into a tentative thesis, you can assemble your notes and begin to flesh out whatever outline you have made. (選自2008年Part B)
