第四、語法點撥
1. The only thing he had to eat was his piece of bread and some water which he begged from houses near the road.
要點解析1:第一處劃線部分是先行性定語從句,修飾thing。Thing的前面有only這個詞修飾,引導定語從句的關系代詞只能用that,由于是做賓語,這里省略了that,不要用which。
要點解析2:第二處劃線部分是限定性定語從句,修飾先行詞water。先行詞water在定語從句中做賓語,這里使用關系代詞which來引導定于從句,也可以用that。
2. He slept the first night in a field, feeling lonely, tired, cold and hungry.
要點解析:劃線部分是現在分詞短語做伴隨狀況狀語。
3. He was even hungrier the next morning when he woke up...
要點解析:換線部分even hungrier中的even是副詞,在這里修飾形容詞比較級hungrier。
4. His legs were so weak that they shook beneath him.
要點解析1:so that在這句話中使用如下:主語+謂語+so+形容詞+that+結果狀語從句。
要點解析2:在文學用語中,表示“在......下”,用beneath比under更具品位。
5. But he could not see how these would help him get to London any faster....
要點解析1:第一處劃線部分注意這個短語結構help somebody do something,do something做somebody的補足語,但是用動詞原形。
要點解析2:第二處劃線部分any faster中的any修飾副詞fast的比較級fast。
