重庆10月自考《英语(一)》课堂笔记(8)
本课语言点
1. Learning a language is easy.
这是一个 主语+动词+表语 (SVP)句型。句中learning a language为动名词短语,在句子中做主语。再如:
Forgetting the past means betrayal.(忘记过去就意味着背叛。)
请翻译下面的句子:
1) 阅读英语比讲英语容易。 (Reading English is easier than speaking it.)
2) 集邮是我弟弟的爱好。(Collecting stamps is my little brother''s hobby.)
2. Even a child can do it.
even在句中作副词用,加强语气,表示“甚至(…也),连(…都)”。如:He even didn''t trust his best friend.(他甚至不信任他最好的朋友。)
请注意even与 even if / though的区别并翻译下面的句子:
1) 这个我连听都没听过。(I haven''t even heard of it.)
2) 即使花了数天时间复习,他也没能考好。(He didn''t do well in the exam even though he spent days reviewing.)
3. Most adults who are learning a second language would disagree with this statement.
句中who are learning a second language为定语从句,修饰先行词most adults,再如:
The man who wrote this book is a teacher.(写这本书的人是一位教师。)
