DisjunctA disjunct is a type of adverbial that expresses information that is not considered essential to the sentence it appears in, but which is considered to be the speaker’s or writer’s attitude towards, or descriptive statement of, the propositional content of the sentence.More generally, the term disjunct can be used to refer to any sentence element that is not fully integrated into the clausal structure of the sentence. Such elements usually appear peripherally (at the beginning or end of the sentence) and are set off from the rest of the sentence by a comma (in writing) and a pause (in speech).e.g. Honestly, I couldn’t believe it.Unfortunately, Kim has had to leave us.I Rewrite the following sentences using proper disjuncts.1.Unfortunately, we have run out of stock.2.Hopefully, the report will go out to shareholders no later than June 1.3.Oddly enough, he did not raise any objection to the plan.4.Rightly, you returned the money.5.Luckily, this had attracted the attention of TV network executives.6.Fortunately, all went well.7.Strangely enough, the burglar didn’t take the diamond away.IIDisjuncts that are used to convey the evaluation of or attitude towards what is said can be subdivided into two types: 1) those that express a judgment on what is being said as a whole and that normally apply the same judgment simultaneously to the subject of the clause, for example, rightly, correctly, justly, foolishly, wisely, cleverly, prudently, rightly and wrongly. 2) those whose judgment carries no implication to the subject of the clause, such as remarkably, amazingly, astonishingly, curiously, naturally, fortunately, happily, thankfully and sadly. Type 1 disjuncts correspond to the clauses It be…that…, It be…of…or to an infinitive clause.Type 2 disjuncts correspond to the clause It be…that…1. It was right that they protested against it. / It was right of them to have protested （或protest）against it. / They were right to have protested（或protest）against it.2. It was foolish that the boy didn’t say a single word. / It was foolish of the boy not to have said （或say） a single word. / The boy was foolish not to have said （或say）a single word.3. It was wise that John sent the man away. / It was wise of John to have sent （或send）the man away. / John was wise to have sent （或send）the man away.4. It was sad that the storm destroyed the entire tobacco crop.5. It was remarkable that Mrs. Jensen consulted her lawyer.6. It is regrettable that James refuses to speak.7. It is lucky that my assistant has arranged for the matter to be considered by an ad hoc working party.8. It is hoped that a proposal will be ready in time for our next meeting.III Relative wordsRelative words are used to refer to a noun mentioned before and of which we are adding more information. They are used to join two or more sentences in the way we call “relative sentences”.e.g. I know many boys who / that play rugby.The shirt which / that Carl bought has a stain on the pocket.This is the boy whose mother works for the BBC.Barnstaple has a very old covered market where I bought some lovely old plates.Sunday is the day when people usually don’t go to work.If the verb in the relative clause needs a preposition, we usually put it at the end of the clause:e.g. The music which / that Julie listens to is good.Sometimes, the preposition can also be placed before the relative pronoun.e.g. My brother met a woman with whom I used to work.It was the stream in which the elephant and the mouse preferred to swim.Notice that we cannot use who or that after a preposition, for the relative pronoun now serves as the object of the preposition.Key:1.which / that, when, by which2.on which3.that4.for whom5.with whom6.to whom7.of which8.at whichIV.1.where, where2.what, which3.what4.why5.where6.When7.why8.which, which, whatKey:1.However2.Whatever3.whatever4.Wherever5.Whichever6.Whoever7.However8.whenever, wheneverI1.不管我们的标准是什么，这个标准现在提高了，结果使你对自己没能得到更高的分数而感到失望。
