谈句中的插入语
SEFC中出现了多种形式的插入语。由于插入语在句中独立存在,且不担当句子成份,因此常不被人注意。其实,插入语位置灵活,作用甚大,或在句首解释提醒,或在句中强化语气,或在句末缓和语气。现将其用法总结如下:
1.介词短语用作插入语
常作插入语的介词短语有:in fact (事实上),in one’s opinion (在某人看来),of course (当然),above all /first of all (首先),by the way (顺便) 等。如:
Above all, you must follow your teacher’s advice.
As a result, we must water the crop fields.
In my opinion, he is an honest boy.
2.副词用作插入语
常作插入语的副词有:certainly(当然),surely(无疑),indeed(的确),however(然而),fortunately(幸运的是),luckily(幸运的是),probably(大概),personally(就个人来讲)等。
如:Unfortunately, I was caught in the rain.
Personally, I’d rather go to the opera theatre.
Surely, you must finish the task by dinner.
3.不定式作插入语
常作插入语的不定式有:to be frank(坦率地说),to tell(you )the truth(老实说),to be sure(当然)等。
如:To tell you the truth, I didn’t want to go with you.
4.V-ing 分词短语作插入语
常作插入语的V-ing分词短语有:generally speaking(一般来讲),generally considering(一般认为),strictly speaking(严格地说),judging from/by (根据……来判断)等。
如:Judging from your accent , you must be from England.
Generally speaking, this is a rule for protection our school.
5.分句作插入语
常作插入语的分句有:I think(我认为),I hope (我希望),I’m aftaid(恐怕),What’s more(而且),What’s worse(更糟的是),You see (你清楚)等。如:You see, they didn’t trust me .
He will come on time, I think. (注意:这个句子如把插入语I think放在句首,它就成为主句,而后面的句子成为宾语从句成份,即:I think (that )he will come on time.
