I 概述

一、此阶段的语法学习非常重要

这不仅是因为语法是许多英语专业考研的直接考点,而且是因为它是语言水平和质量的重要体现,是我们在做考卷其他部分时不可或缺的知识基础。较深厚的语法知识可帮助我们分析阅读理解和翻译中的长句、难句,确保正确性和准确性。

如语法题:

1. Commiserating with one of his American admirers, Rebekah Owen, for having to get in a plumber, he suggested that she took up plumbing herself. (北京外国语大学 2014 年基础英语篇章改错部分)

此处考查语法suggest that sb. do 因此,took应改为take。

2. It may be that [A] when his life at last comes to an end he will leave [B] no more trace of his sojourn [C] on earth thana stone throwing to [D] a river leaves on the surface of the water. (北京航空航天大学 2014 年基础英语句子改错部分)

此处考查语法分词含义,即现在分词表主动,过去分词表被动。因此,D项应改为被动形式,thrown to,作为stone的修饰语。

3. Be they epistemological, ontological, psychological, pragmatic, or ethical, one of the most puzzling aspects of this rejection of objectivity in journalism is that it seems to be taken both as an established fact and as a matter still requiring careful,___. (对外经济贸易大学 2014 年基础英语单选部分)

A. if not to say obsessive, attention

B. not to say obsessive attention

C.if not,say,obsessive attention

D.not saying obsessive,attention

此处考查say作为插入语的用法,故选C。

4.___with the size of the whole earth, the highest mountain does not seem high at all. (北京交通 大学 2014 年基础英语单选部分)

A.When compared

B.Compare

C.While comparing

D.Comparing

典型语法题,前半句为独立主格结构,该句主语为the highest mountain,故选择被动形式,A项。

5. In this sense, the past surely weaves a complex pattern into all kinds of primitive literature, and it would be highly arbitrary to identify as myths those stories 20 explicitly refer to the past in such a way that it may be historically conceived. (国际关系学院 2014 年基础英语完形填空)

此为长难句,文体读来也些许晦涩难懂,但如若仔细分析句子结构,搞清语法成分,便不难填空。空前结构可简化为identify stories as myths,由于stories修饰成分过长,故改变结构。因此,由空后缺少主语,填出which。

如在翻译题中:

1. Most commonly, we come to books with blurred and divided minds, asking of fiction that shall be false,of biography that it shall be flattering, of history that it shall enforce our own prejudices. (How should one read a book?—Virginia Woolf,众多学校的题源)

该句为省略句,of前省略asking,避免重复。然而中文可将其还原。

参考译文:我们打开书,往往是思想模糊,头脑割裂,对其求非所予。苛求小说真实,苛求诗歌造作,要求传记美化,要求史书认同一己之见。

2. And speaking of freedom, is not the author free, as few men are free? Is he not secure, as few men are secure? (The Joys of Writing—Winston Churchill)

本句迷惑之处在于表面是疑问句、否定句,实则为强烈的肯定句。据此,可试译为:

至于自由,世间鲜有,却为作家独享;世人生活皆有岌岌可危之感,作家心中却独存一份安然恬淡。

如在阅读理解题中:

1. All these stories are based on similar scripts:callous doctors convert harsh criminals into docile individuals who, once operated upon, become dull and lose their critical capacities, or, conversely,neurosurgeons remodel exemplary citizens in remorseless warriors who are unstoppable from committing cruelties afterwards. (北京外国语大学 2014 年基础英语阅读)

提取出句子主干 All these stories are based on similar scripts:doctors convert criminals into individuals, or neurosurgeons remodel citizens in warriors. 由于插入语以及定语从句等成分,我们对句子不能提纲挈领,拨云见雾抓住句子主干。可见,扎实的语法功底不论在美文欣赏还是应试技巧上都必不可少。

2. Imagine all the devotees of the humanities suddenly withdrawing to a monastery, taking with them all that belongs to them; the workaday world we know would turn before our astonished faces into something bleak, dark, soundless, bare of sensuous charm, and empty of any meaning beyond that of immediate needs and their fulfillment by mechanical aids. (南京大学 2004 年基础英语阅读部分)

这是由分号连接的并列句,其中分号后面的句子中的谓语turn,语法知识敏感的人立即就可以看出turn后面接着的before our astonished faces是介词短语作状语修饰turn, 而turn与后面的into构成搭配。这样整个句子结构就清楚了,意为“我们所了解的世界就会在我们的面前惊人地变成……”。如果能分析句子成分,阅读理解就可以完全达成。

二、英语语法、用法中的“一般”和 “特殊”

这个层次的语法学习切记住:要把握好英语语法的一般性和特殊性的关系。如上海交通大学2005 年英语水平考试第Ⅲ题句子改错部分的第 62 题:

He has taken honors [A] courses throughout his tenure at his suburban high school, has already qualified for [B] advance placement in [C] two subjects andexpects to qualify for [D] several others.

考生往往会选择 A 项,因为语法的一般规律规定:当一个名词修饰另一个名词时应用原型,故honors 应改为honor , 但是特殊的是honors也是原型,只不过是意思有些变了,honors 不是“荣誉” 之意而是“优等成绩”之意了。这类特殊性有:waters (大水、水域) 、readings (读物) 、communications (通信) 、regards (致意) 、apologies (无限歉意) 、brains (智力) 、damages (索赔) 等等,所以我们学习语法要多查勤查,万不可想当然。尤其针对考试更是如此,因为考试特别是国内出题的考试或多或少信奉 “特殊大于一般”。此题答案为D, for应改为in,与前面的in two subjects中的in 构成并列一致。

1. 有关定冠词的一般性与特殊性:

一般性:天体的名称加定冠词 the

the moon, the stars, the constellations (星座) , the sun, the planet 等。

特殊性:除地球以外其他行星不可以加 the

Mars(火星)、Jupiter(木星)、Saturn(土星)、Neptune(海王星)、Mercury(水星)、Venus(金星)、Pluto(冥王星)、Uranus(天王星)。

2. 有关情态动词 will shall 的一般性和特殊性:

一般性:shall用于第一人称,will 用于所有人称。

特殊性:shall 亦可用于其他人称,表示讲话人的意志和决心。

如:Lincoln的The Government of the people, for the people and by the people shall never perish from the earth.(注:此处的shall要重读。)

另外,

一般说I shall see you.而其特殊性:Since I shall be seeing you tomorrow, you can explain everything to me then.

前者句子表达讲话人的“意志”,而后者句子表达“事先已约定好的事。”

3. 有关英语时态的一般性和特殊性:

一般性:always, often, invariably 这些词用于一般现在时的句子中。

特殊性:亦可用于一般或过去进行时句子中表示“不耐烦,不满”等情绪。

如:She is always complaining.

三、英语语法中的“其一”和“其他”。

英研层次的语法要求考生要知“其一”,更要知“其他”。所谓“其一”就是人所共知的语法常识,“其他”指的是令人颇觉生疏的语法现象,只知“其一”,不知道“其他”是最有害的,因为国内考试所信奉的另一个原则就是:“其他”大于“其一”。正如Alexander Pope所言:A little knowledge is a dangerous thing. 往往似是而非的“其一”就成了典型陷阱。

有关词惯用法的“其一”和“其他”之辩举隅:
1. “如果”

“其一”(一般性):if

“其他”(特殊性):

suppose provided that were

“喔,我决不!”爷爷说道。

“其他”(特殊):

1) 肯定句中的状语前置。

In front of me lay the whole valley like an untouched paradise on earth.

展现在我们面前的整个山谷犹如一个无人到过的人间天堂。

2) 副词提前

Off you go! 你走开!

Down fell a clutter of cartons and boxes.

乱七八糟的一堆纸匣和木箱倒了下来。

总而言之,语言规则性反映出语言的稳定性和保守性;而语言的反规则性则反映语言的求变性和革命性。后者是语言变化的动因,使语言成为不断变化、吐旧纳新、兼容并蓄的知识和文化的载体。而对考试而言要时刻牢记:语言实际上只有两个规则:一是规则,二是反规则。从某种意义上讲“反规则”更为生动,更为重要,尤其是对应考试这件事。故有必要再重申一遍考试的原则是:“特殊”大于“一般”,要知“其一”,更要知“其他”。 T5spIl3/3zG5Ef7F+zFAktQuFBO1E0kC+8j4060hInhKBxNx+wORrpfj3LngmRW9
