八、圆括弧Parenthesis( ( ) )
1.标出表顺序的数字和字母(如: (1) 、(2) 等)
2.用来表示其中插入的或附加的解释成分。这个插入成分可以是单词、词组或句子。但要注意,括号会削弱强调作用,因此,如果要强调插入的句子成份,则要用破折号。
They might take a walk together(remember feet) and see the neighborhood with fresh , new eyes.
九、引号Quotation Marks()
引号分单引号(single quotation marks) 和双引号(double quotation marks) .单引号只用在一个直接引语中所含有的另一个直接引语上。
1. 表示直接引语。当直接引语超过四行或多于40 个字词时, 一般不用引号而改用黑体字以便与文章的其它部分界线清晰
Well, the foreigner said to him , you look like an engineer.
句号和逗号必须置于引号(双引号和单引号) 之内。
He told the gunman ,I refuse to do that his knees , however , were shaking even as he said those words.
She called this schedule of activities her load :work , study , exercise , recreation , and sleep.
冒号与分号必置于引号外。
The teacher asked , Could you understand me?
Did the teacher ask ,Have they gone?
Did the teacher ask ,They have gone ?
The frightened girl screamed ,Help!
The fellow only said ,Sorry !
He interrupted me , Now , listenand went on saying.
问号、感叹号和破折号有时置于引号之内, 有时置于外号之外。如果所引内容本身是疑问句或感叹句或带有破折号, 问号、感叹号或破折号一般放在引号之内。否则,放在引号之外。
2. 标明短篇出版物的标题, 诸如杂志、报纸上的文章、短诗、短篇故事和整部书的某一章节。
Have you readThe Old Man and the Sea?
Chapter three is entitledThe Internet .
3.表示所用的词语具有特殊意义。另外,当俚语出现在较正式的文章中, 也用引号引起来, 以表示文风的有意转变。
The report contained thefactsof the case.
The speaker owns afat farmin California , which slims down rich overeaters for $2 , 500 a week.
4. 用于表示引起读者注意的词语, 或读者不熟悉的特殊词语。

1. 表示直接引语中的省略
