語段精講
1. “She loves that child, though she says she hates him and wishes they were both dead,“said one of the women,watching the young mother.
語法精講【虛擬語氣】:這是含有讓步狀語從句才復合句。
主句是:She loves that child,讓步狀語從句時:though she says she hates him and wishes they were both dead.。在讓步狀語從句中含有2個有并列連詞and連接的賓語從句。在第二個賓語從句“she said she wishes they were both dead”中的賓語從句“they were both dead”使用了虛擬語氣。
當主句中有“wish”這個表示“希望,愿望”的詞時,后面跟有賓語從句,賓語從句就要使用虛擬語氣。該句子中是“直接引語”,是表示對“現在的情況的虛擬”,因此用的是一般過去式“were dead”。
語法精講【現在分詞】:watching the young mother是現在分詞短語做伴隨狀況狀語。文中是說一個女人在說到苔絲的事情,同時,這個女人在觀望著苔絲。“Say”和“watch”這2個動作再同時發生。
2. She'll get used to it.It happens to lots of girls.
短語精講【寫作加分短語】:get used to something的意思是“習慣某事或某物”,這里的to是介詞,如果后面接動詞的話,就要使用動名詞形式——get used to doing something。例如:
You will have to get used to broken sleep.(你還必須習慣于零碎的睡覺。)
Famous people get used to the stares of the crowds.(出了名的人習慣于人群的盯視。)
寫作句式:“It happens to sb.”是指事情發生在某人身上。例如:
If it were known and anything happened to me, my next of kin would dispute my will on the ground of insanity. (這事要泄露出去了,我再出點什么事情的話,我的那些至愛親朋們就會疑心我精神錯亂。)
3. She was forced into it that night in The Chase.
短語精講:be forced into something的意思是“被迫做某事”。短語中的into是介詞,后面接動詞,要使用動名詞形式。例如:
The president was forced into resigning.(會長被迫辭職。)
He was forced into accepting the plan.(他被迫接受這項計劃。)
4. A certain gentleman might have been punished if somebody had passed by and seen them.
語法精講【虛擬語氣】:這個句子是非真實條件虛擬句,是對過去事情的一種猜測,而并非是真實事實。因此,條件狀語從句“if somebody had passed by and seen them”中使用的是過去完成時,事實上沒有人經過看到他們。
主句“A certain gentleman might have been punished”使用的是情態動詞might的過去完成式,might have been punished,事實上這個強奸苔絲的人并沒有收到懲罰。
寫作語庫【短語積累】:pass by:經過,走過
5. It was a pity it happened to her,the prettiest in the village.
寫作句式:“It is a pity (that)+從句。”表示“很遺憾......”。例如:
It is a pity that there should be so little charity abroad.(外間竟然這么缺少仁愛,這是很可惜的。)
It is a pity that he should miss such a golden opportunity.(真可惜,他竟會失去這樣一個絕好的機會。)
語法點撥【同位語】:the pretties是the加上形容詞pretty的最高級形式,這樣可以相當于名詞。它做her的同位語,補充說明her的外貌。此外,In the village是介詞短語修飾the prettiest。
