Mr. And:大家好!我是And,把英语句子翻译成汉语时大家经常看不见我的影子,可是在英语中却必不可少。我的任务是把两个或两个以上的有并列关系、动作先后关系或者是有条件和结果关系的句子连接起来。
After lunch Aunt Huang came in and she looked worried. 午饭后黄阿姨进来了,她看起来很着急。(表示并列关系)
Mary brushed her teech and she went to bed.
玛丽刷完牙,然后上床睡觉。(表示动作先后关系)
Use your head, and you'll find a good way. 动动脑筋,你就会找到好的方法。(表示条件和结果)该句相当于If you use your head, you'll find a good way.
"祈使句,+and + 一般将来时的句子"这是一个固定句型,表示"如果做到了祈使句表示的事情,就会有后面句子表示的结果。"如:
Work hard, and you will pass the exam. 努力学习,你就会通过考试。
Miss But:Hello, everyone! 我是Miss But。我的工作是把两个意思相反或相对的句子连接起来。我的同事还有:yet (可是),while (而)等。大家请看:
I heard a big noise and I looked out, but I didn't see anything.
我听到一声巨响,就往外看,但是我什么也没看见。
I'm poor, but I always enjoy myself. 我很穷,但是我总是过得很开心。
My elder brother likes playing basketball while I like playing football. 我哥哥喜欢打篮球,而我喜欢踢足球。
我是Mr. So. "因此"、"所以"就是我的口头禅。我能迅速地把含有因果关系的两个简单句连接起来。下面请看我的才艺表演。
This is our first lesson, so I don't know all your names.
这是我们的第一节课,因此并不是所有人的名字我都知道。
I am rich, so I can buy myself lots of nice things.
我很富裕,所以我能给自己买很多好东西。
我有一个好朋友Mr. For,他的性格与我很相似,他也喜欢寻根究底,只不过他注重原因,我注重结果。
He shook his head, for he thought differently.
他摇头(表示否决),因为他有不同的见解。
我是Miss Or,我是一个和蔼可亲的人,一般情况下我不会强迫某人去做某一件事情,我可以让他(她)自己做出选择。有时,我也会比较严厉,这时候我会用命令的语气说"做好某事,否则(要不然)就会……"。让我给大家献个"丑"吧!
You may do it yourself, or you can ask someone to help you.
你可以自己做,你也可以请人来帮你。
Work hard, or you can't pass the exam.(= If you don't work hard,
you can't pass the exam.)努力学习,否则你就会考试不及格。
"祈使句,+ or + 一般将来时的句子"是一个固定句型,表示"如果不做到祈使句表示的事情,就会有后面句子表示的结果。"
并列句的特点是:并列句必须由两个或两个以上的主语、谓语结构组成,并且它们之间互不依从,通常它们之间由并列连词连接,去掉连词后它们都可以独立成句。
如果一个主语有两个或两个以上的谓语动词;或者有两个或两个以上的主语,却只有一个谓语动词不是并列句。例如:
He closed the window, put on his coat, opened the door and went out.
他关上窗户,穿上大衣,打开门出去了。
Jim , Tom and I are in the same class. 我和吉姆、汤姆在同一个班。
