2024屆廣東省廣州市天河中學(xué)高考英語語法一輪復(fù)習(xí)基礎(chǔ)知識點精講:省略句01(含答案)
省略句
莎士比亞曾經(jīng)說過:Brevity is the soul of wit. (言以簡為貴)。為了使話說得簡明扼要,英語句子中某個單詞、短語甚至從句或主句都可以省去。這種省去句子某些成分而保持句子意思不變的現(xiàn)象,稱為省略(ellipsis)。一、?省略的目的
省略多見于非正式的文體,尤其在對話中,省略是一種十分普遍的現(xiàn)象。英語中的省略一般說來有三個目的:
A.?避免重復(fù),減少累贅。
省略的主要目的是避免重復(fù),去掉不必要的累贅和繁瑣。 ? Mike said that he would come to school to see me the next day, but he didn't come to school to see me the next day. 邁克說他第二 天要來學(xué)校看我,但是第二天他并沒有來學(xué)校看我。 ? -- Mike said that he would come to school to see me the next day, but he didn't. 邁克說他第二天要來學(xué)校看我,但是他并沒有來。(省掉最后九個詞,句子簡潔多了) ? — What did he want yesterday 他昨天要了什么? —?An apple. 一個蘋果。(如果回答時說出全文“He wanted an apple yesterday”,便顯得別扭,不自然)B.?連接緊密,結(jié)構(gòu)緊湊。
省略也是使上下文緊密連接的一種修辭手段。 ? John was the winner in 1994 and Bob in 1998. 約翰是1994年的獲勝者,鮑勃是1998年的獲勝者。(Bob后省略了was the winner,句子結(jié)構(gòu)顯得比較緊湊) ? In some places we stopped in tents for the night, in other places in caves. 我們在有些地方住在帳篷里過夜,在有些地方住在山洞里。(in other places 后省略了主語和謂語we stopped for the night,上下文連接更加緊密) ? 省略: ? 回答問題要簡潔,并列重復(fù)需省略。祈使主語常省略,比較than后需省略。賓從表從that勿省略。前后出現(xiàn)同一詞,習(xí)慣表達(dá)需省略。C.強(qiáng)調(diào)重點,突出信息。 ? 省略的另一作用是突出新的信息。 ? Truth speaks too low, hypocrisy too loud. 真理講話聲太低,虛偽講話聲太高。(后一分句省略謂語speaks,突出了too loud) ? — Have you told him that 你把那告訴他了嗎? ? — Not yet. 還沒有呢。(= I have not told him that yet. 強(qiáng)調(diào)not yet ) ? 二、?可省略的成分
省略大致可歸納為功能詞的省略和語法結(jié)構(gòu)上的省略兩種。在很多情況下,這兩種省略存在著交叉的關(guān)系,即有時既是功能詞的省略,同時又是語法結(jié)構(gòu)上的省略。
A.?功能詞的省略
功能詞指的是沒有完整意義,但有語法意義的詞,如冠詞、介詞、助動詞等。英語句子結(jié)構(gòu)的簡潔,首先表現(xiàn)在功能詞的省略上。
1.冠詞的省略 ? They elected John (the) monitor of the class. 他們選約翰當(dāng)班長。 ? A man and (a) woman are talking in the office. 辦公室一男一女正在談話。 ?

We did not dare (to) speak. 我們不敢說話。(dare作行為動詞用時,否定式可省略to) ? There is nothing to do but (to) obey the orders. 除了服從命令之外,我們別無他法。(介詞but前如有do,but后可省略to)
注意: ? 當(dāng)兩個并列的不定式在意義上表示對比關(guān)系時,后面的不定式一般不省略to。 ? To be or not to be, that is the question. 活著還是死亡,這就是問題所在。(莎士比亞) ? It was better to laugh than to cry. 笑比哭好。7.介詞的省略 ??
