英語寫作精講精練:一個公式三個原則(3)

非謂語動詞方式處理示例
    示例1:I sat beside her. I felt very nervous.
    可變?yōu)椋篠itting beside her, I felt very nervous.
    或者:I sat beside her, feeling very nervous.
    示例2:I want to quit smoking. I eat candies.
    可變?yōu)椋篢o quit smoking, I eat candies.
    示例3:A young man was tired of sleeping on the floor. He saved up for years to buy a real bed.
    可以變?yōu)椋篢ired of sleeping on the floor, a young man saved up for years to buy a real bed.
    示例4:Jimmy was dressed up as Father Christmas. He was accompanied by a guard of honor of six pretty girls. He set off down the main street of the city. He rode a baby elephant. The elephant was called Jumbo.
    可以變?yōu)椋篋ressed up as Father Christmas and accompanied by a guard of honor of six pretty girls, Jimmy set off down the main street of the city, riding a baby elephant called Jumbo.
    定語從句方式處理
    定語從句當然是屬于“從屬”的行列,所以,是處理為從屬方式的手段之一。請看下面的例子:
    This is the only book.
    I read the book during the holiday.
    兩句的重合點在the book上面;將第二句中的the book抽出來,放到第一句book后面,其它內容向后甩。這樣,我們就會看到the only book后面馬上又在重復the book。為了避免重復,我們去掉the book,而換用另外一個詞去替換,這個詞就是指物的which或that。因為這里的book有only在修飾,所以,最終我們選用that;又因為that在定語從句中作賓語,所以,可以省略。
    下面兩句的合并遵循同樣的原則:
    She is the girl.
    The girl’s father is my boss.
    She is the girl whose father is my boss.
    幾個句型:
    …, but…句型(表轉折關系)
    …, for…句型(表原因關系)
    …, so…句型(表結果關系)
    …(,/;/.) however,…句型(表更強烈的轉折關系)
    …(,/;/.) therefore,…句型(更強烈的結果關系)
    …(,/;/.) meanwhile,…句型(表時間關系)
    …(,/;/.) consequently,…句型(表結果關系)
    …(,/;/.) admittedly,…句型(表讓步關系)
    這些基本知識構成了:
    1)簡單句擴展到復雜句
    2)復雜句拆分為簡單句
    由“分到合”,由“合到分”的“基石”。
