世界上最遙遠的距離不是生與死,而是你說英語我卻聽不懂!看到別人可以與外國友人輕松愉快的交流,你不羨慕嗎?心動不如行動!一起加入學(xué)習(xí)的陣營中吧!為您整理了以下內(nèi)容,僅供參考。希望可以幫助到您!如果您想要了解更多相關(guān)內(nèi)容,歡迎關(guān)注!
時光如梭,白駒過隙。屈指算來,從我第一次接觸“新三”到現(xiàn)在,已經(jīng)十個年頭有余。依我自己的學(xué)習(xí)體會來看,“新三”中有一個非常實用但又容易被人忽略的語言現(xiàn)象,那就是我在這里所要給大家詮釋的——強調(diào)詞匯。一旦徹底掌握了這個語言點,你其實就掌握了日??谡Z及寫作中非常重要的基本語言“潤色”能力。
與此同時,這一類詞語由于其具備強調(diào)的意義通常也是句子中需要“重讀”的關(guān)鍵詞語,掌握它們的其作用自然不言而喻。我相信,列出的大部分詞語都是大家使用的高頻詞匯。但是,真正在意識上會把它們當(dāng)成一類工具詞語來使用并且刻意添加以加強語氣或充實句子的人很少。要知道,積累、分類強調(diào)詞匯其實是通向語言variety(多樣性)的第一條道路,非常關(guān)鍵。
當(dāng)然,詞不離句,我在這里首先要澄清一個優(yōu)先概念:強調(diào)句型(注意不是強調(diào)句)。表示強調(diào)的句型我們簡稱為“強調(diào)句型”,包括倒裝句強調(diào)句感嘆句等。這里我主要涉及的是強調(diào)句型中的一支:“強調(diào)詞匯”——即通過詞匯來表達情感。
接下來我就根據(jù)意義進行分類,再結(jié)合例句給大家介紹這些強調(diào)詞匯(以adv.為主)的作用,并且總結(jié)這些詞在新概念三冊中的所有相關(guān)例句。非常巧,這其中包含了大量新概念三的經(jīng)典鉆石句,這也間接說明了我在此總結(jié)并希望大家熟練掌握強調(diào)詞匯的重要性。希望大家在看完各部分的單獨分析后再參照我后面所列出的新概念三冊里的例句鞏固加深記憶并且掌握各種語境下的用法。
