四、重点句式

1.seem to be doing

(教材P39)　One moment she seems to be laughing at me，but then again I catch a sense of sadness in her smile.

一会儿她似乎在嘲笑我，但一会儿我又从她的微笑中感到一丝悲伤。

 句式分析：seem to be doing 好像正在做。本句使用了“主语＋seem＋不定式”结构，该句型中的seem与不定式一起构成复合谓语。be doing表示动作正在进行中。

He seems to be giving the impression that he didn't enjoy himself in Paris.

他似乎在给人留下他在巴黎玩得不开心的印象。

He seems to be doing his homework while his mother is preparing supper.

他妈妈在准备晚饭的时候，他好像正在做作业。

[造句]　他好像是啥也没干，事实上他在等待机会。

He seems to be doing nothing，but actually he is just waiting for his chance.

[知识拓展]

(1)主语＋seem ＋ 不定式结构有时态和语态的变化。

seem＋to do/to have done/to be doing，意为“好像要做……/已经做了……/正在做……”。

(2)“主语＋seem＋(to be)＋表语”结构，表语多为名词、形容词、分词、介词短语等，以说明主语的特征或状态，意为“好像……”。

(3)“It seems＋that从句”，其中it是形式主语，that引导主语从句，意为“好像……(用陈述语气)”。

(4)“There＋seems (to be)＋名词”，意为“好像有……”。

 

2.That's why表语从句

(教材P39)　I guess that's why she attracts so many visitors every day.

我想这就是她每天吸引那么多游客的原因吧。

句式分析：本句是that引导宾语从句作guess的宾语；同时宾语从句是主系表结构，其中why引导的是表语从句。That's why ＋ 从句表示“那是……的原因”

That is why we students should learn to make the most of our potential by wisely managing our time.

这就是为什么我们学生应该学会通过合理地管理时间最大限度地利用我们的潜力。

And that is why in this field，I have made recommendations.

为此，我在这方面提出了一系列建议。

[造句]　汤姆今天早晨睡过头了，那是他上班迟到的原因。

Tom overslept this morning，and that is why he was late for work.

[知识拓展]

(1)This/That is because...这是……的原因。

(2)The reason why...is that... ……的原因是……

 

五、难句分析

1.(教材P38)　Her head and arms are missing，but you can imagine her holding her arms up high，celebrating the result of an ancient battle.

[分析]　该句是一个but连接的并列句。前一分句是主系表结构；后一分句是主谓宾结构，后面的celebrating the result of an ancient battle是非谓语动词作伴随状语。

[译文]　她头和胳膊缺失了，但你可以想象得出她高举着手臂，在庆祝一场古代战争的胜利。

 

2.(教材P39)　They really do reach out to us across the centuries as if time itself were nothing.

[分析]　该句是一个主从复合句。主句是主谓宾结构，其中的do用在了动词原形reach的前面表示强调；从句是as if 引导的方式状语从句，从句是用的虚拟语气，所以be动词用了were。

[译文]　虽然好几个世纪过去了，但是它们确实使我们感兴趣并有所触动，仿佛时间本身无关紧要。

 

3.(教材P39)　By the way，if you have enjoyed this live broadcast，subscribe to find out where I am visiting next!

[分析]　该句是一个主从复合句。by the way 是插入语。从句是if 引导的条件状语从句；主句是一个祈使句，其中的where引导的从句作find out的宾语。

[译文]　顺便说一下，如果你喜欢这次直播，请订阅收看，看看我下次去哪儿吧！
