  句子的连接

  第一步:四级精彩句型展示

  1. The reason why + 句子 is that + 句子(的原因是)

  这是在四级考试里面用得很多的一个定语从句句型,通过why把两个句子联系起来,why后的句子作为从句是the reason的定语。

  The reason why we have to grow trees is that they can provide us with fresh air.

  类似的还有those who结构,如:

  Those who violate traffic regulations should be punished. 违反交通规定的人应该受处罚。

  2. Since the time that + S + 过去式,S + 现在完成时。

  该句型用since一词将两个句子联系起来,表示一种时间关系。

  Since the time that he went to senior high school, he has worked very hard. 自从他上高中,他一直很用功。

  连接在写作中是很重要的,就像自行车的链条,它的好坏会直接影响速度和行驶距离。连接于写作就如我们身体的水,没有水就没有生命,没有好的连接,相应的也不会有精彩的作文问世。

  第二步:语法精讲

  1. 简介

  连接手段(The connective)一般包括连接词、连接代词、连接副词、关系代词和关系副词。连接手段是一个很宽泛的概念,概括了复合句、定语从句、状语从句等。建议大家结合本系列丛书的《词汇?语法?完形填空分册》中的从句讲解进行学习。

  2. 四级必备套句

  主语+谓语(过去进行时成过去完成时)+其他成分+when+主语+谓语(一般过去时)+其他成分

  【分析】该句型中when引导的分句表示分句行为发生的突然性,when常译为就在这时,该句在记叙文的写作中经常用到。

  On a rainy day I was driving on the Street of Eternal Peace when I noticed a young man holding up a sign that read Frank. 在一个下雨天,我正驾车通过长安街,就在这时我突然注意到一个年轻人举着一块牌子,上面写着弗兰克。

  No one everything that is going on in the world.

  【分析】that is going on in the world是定语从句,修饰everything,当先行词是everything等不定代词时,关系代词要用that。这句子在阐述原因时是个很有效的句子。

  No one has time to read an account of everything that is going on in the world. 没有一个人会有时间去阅读介绍世界上正在发生的每一件事情。(在论述有选择性的阅读的重要性时)

  rather than, we should

  【分析】rather than意为而不是或没有去。

  Rather than pursue money to achieve happiness, we should focus on the improvement of parts of ourselves.

  类似的还有other than(=except)除了。

  He never speaks to me other than to ask for something. 他除了向我要东西,从不跟我说话。

  She has no close friends other than me. 她除了我以外从没有别的好朋友。
