这里要谈副词短语的种类以及其他动词修饰语。 副词短语由介词+名词/代词/动名词组成,可以表示时间(time)、状况(manner)、原因(reason)、地点(place)、方法(means)、让步(concession)等。例如: 1. He came at two oclock.(时间) 2. Ramat spoke in a loud voice.(状况) 3. Some failed because of being sluggish.(原因) 4. The picnickers arrived at the beach.(地点) 5. The cook cut with a sharp knife.(方法) 6. Jason turned up in spite of the rain.(让步) 如果不用短语,可以用副词表示时间、状况、地点,还有程度(degree)和频率(frequency)等。例如: 7. I have heard something like that before.(时间) 8. The soldiers fought bravely.(状况) 9. Go there, please!(地点) 10. I quite understand your problem.(程度) 11. Some students often talk in class.(频率) 除了副词和副词短语之外,另一种常见的动词修饰语,就是副词分句,可以表示时间、条件、地点、让步、目的、结果、比较等。例如: 12. After he had watched the football match on TV, he went to bed.(时间) |
