四、简单句、并列句及复合句

1.简单句(simple sentences)

当一个句子只包含一个主谓结构时称为简单句。简单句大体上可以分为五类:

(1)主语+动词:(S+V)

The train has arrived .

Does it hurt ?

(2)主语+系动词+表语:(S+V+P)

The flowers are (smell) sweet . (形容词)

The dish looks inviting . (现在分词)

She seemed well pleased . (过去分词)

Jane looks like her mother . (介词短语)

That's how I look at it . (从句)

(3)主语+动词+宾语:(S+V+O)

Who can answer this question ?

She is doing her homework .

(4)主语+动词+间接宾语+直接宾语:(S+V+O I +O D

I showed them my passport .

I'll get you something to eat .

(5)主语+动词+宾语+补语:(S+V+O+C)

They appointed him general manager .

She painted the walls light green .

2.并列句(compound sentences)

由两个或更多独立的主谓结构或简单句并列在一起的句子称为并列句。并列句的两部分可用:

(1)分号(;)连接:

It was getting late; she must start back home.

We fished all day; we didn't catch a thing.

(2)并列连词连接:

这两部分可称为分句(clause),也可称为并列分句(co-ordinate clause)。英语中的并列连词(co-ordinating conjunctions)有:and、but、for、or、so、yet、not only...but (also)、either...or、neither...nor等。

Jim worked hard in college and later he became an architect.

I've got a cold, so I'm going to bed.

Either you improve your work or I shall dismiss you.

3.复合句(complex sentences)

一个句子,如果有一个或多个成分由从句担任,就是复合句。复合句中可以包含下面几类从句:

(1)名词性从句在句中可担任主语、宾语、表语、介词的宾语等:

That the match will be cancelled is now certain. (主语)

I know (that) you ' ll succeed. (宾语)

The question is whether they have signed a contract .(表语)

There is a rumor that he has married a widow . (同位语)

(2)关系从句(定语从句),多由关系代词或关系副词引导:

All that glitters is not gold.

Hamlet, which is a famous play by Shakespeare , was performed on stage in the new hall.

This is the book which (that) was on the table .

There are moments when I forget all about it .

(3)状语从句:

状语从句可以表示时间、地点、原因、条件、方式、目的、结果、比较、让步等:

We all stood up when he came in . (时间)

You can sit where you like . (地点)

She acted as if (as though) she were ma d . (方式)
