英语句子成分和英语句子结构讲解及练习英语句子就像一座建筑,句子成分是构成这座建筑的各种材料,而句子结构则是建筑的框架。
理解句子成分和结构对于我们正确理解和运用英语至关重要。
接下来,让我们一起深入探讨。
一、英语句子成分1、主语主语是句子所描述的主体,通常是某人、某事或某物。
它是句子的核心,决定了句子要说的是谁或什么。
比如,“The dog is cute” (这只狗很可爱。
)中,“The dog”就是主语。
2、谓语谓语表示主语的动作或状态。
它通常由动词构成。
例如,“She sings beautifully” (她唱歌很好听。
)中的“sings”就是谓语。
3、宾语宾语是动作的对象,通常是接受动作的人或物。
比如,“He bought a book” (他买了一本书。
)中的“a book”就是宾语。
4、表语表语用于说明主语的特征、状态、身份等。
常见的系动词有 be (am/is/are)、seem、look 等,其后的成分就是表语。
例如,“She is happy” (她很开心。
)中的“happy”就是表语。
5、定语定语用来修饰、限定名词或代词。
它可以是形容词、名词、代词、数词、介词短语等。
例如,“The red car is mine” (那辆红色的车是我的。
)中的“red”就是定语。
6、状语状语用于修饰动词、形容词、副词或整个句子,表示时间、地点、原因、方式、程度等。
比如,“He runs fast” (他跑得很快。
)中的“fast”就是状语。
7、补语补语用于补充说明宾语或主语的情况。
例如,“We made him our monitor” (我们选他当班长。
)中的“our monitor”就是宾语补足语。
二、英语句子结构1、简单句简单句只有一个主谓结构,是最基本的句子类型。
例如,“I love you” (我爱你。
)2、并列句并列句由两个或两个以上的简单句通过并列连词(and, but, or 等)连接而成。
英语中五种基本句型详解及专练句子由主语和谓语两大部分组成。
主语结构比较单一,谓语结构则不然,不同类别的谓语动词导致不同的谓语结构,从而形成了不同的句型(Sentence Pattern)。
换句话说,不同的句型是由不同类别的谓语动词所决定的,因此,句型又被称为动词句型(Verb Pattern)。
语法家们对句型的分类不尽相同,一般认为,现代英语的基本句型主要有五种:1.“主----系-----表”(SLP)句型:在这种句型中,谓语动词是以be为主的连系动词(Linking Verb),后面跟主语补语(Subject Complement),如:These oranges have kept fresh. 这些桔子一直很新鲜。
Mary is a student / here /in the room. 玛丽是个学生/在这儿/在房间里。
有的语法家把be后面的副词(短语)或介词短语视为状语,从而形成了“主----动-----状”(SVA)这一在五种基本句型之外的句型(见上面最后一个例句)。
2.“主----动”(SV)句型:在这种句型中,谓语动词为不及物动词(Intransitive Verb),谓语部分通常只包括限定动词,即使有状语,也属任意性状语,即:去掉后并不影响句子结构和意义的完整,如:This bread won't keep (for a long time). 这种面包不好(长期)存放。
Tom has left.前面说过,有些句子中的状语是不可缺少的,这种状语被称为必具性状语,从而构成“主----动----状”(SVA)句型,但这仅限于少数几个动词的某些用法,因而不是一种主要句型,如:They are staying in a hotel. 他们暂住在一家旅馆里。
3.“主----动-----宾”(SVO)句型:在这种句型中,谓语动词为只带一个宾语的及物动词,这种动词被称为单宾语及物动词(Monotransitive Verb),如:He kept the money. 他保存着这些钱。
句子成分及基本句型一、考点、热点回顾【句子的成分】在英文中句子成分包括:主语、谓语、宾语(直接宾语、间接宾语)、表语、定语和状语、宾语补足语等。
(一)主语:主语是谓语讲述的对象,表示所说的“是什么”或“是谁”。
一般由名词、代词、不定式或相当于名词的词或短语来充当。
它在句首。
如:(1)Lucy is a beautiful nurse. (名词作主语)(2)He reads newspapers every day. (代词作主语)(3)Smoking is harmful to the health. (动名词作主语)(4)To swim in Kunming Lake is a great pleasure.(不定式作主语)(5)What we should do is not yet decided. (主语从句作主语)(二)谓语说明主语“做什么”“是什么”或“怎么样”。
谓语(谓语部分里主要的词)。
谓语和主语在人称和数两方面必须一致。
它在主语后面。
如:His parents are teachers. (系动词和表语一起作谓语)We study hard. (行为动词作谓语)We don’t finish reading the book. (助动词和行为动词一起作谓语)He can speak English. (情态动词和行为动词一起作谓语)(三)宾语宾语是动作、行为的对象,由名词、代词、不定式或相当于名词的词、短语来担任,它和及物动词一起说明主语做什么。
一般放在谓语之后。
She is doing her homework now.(名词作宾语)She says(that)she is ill.(宾语从句作动词宾语)We often help him.(代词作宾语)He likes to play basketball.(不定式作宾语)We enjoy listening to the music. 我们喜欢听音乐。

高中英语阅读理解练习(19-20)(19)New Zealand's government recently proposed taxing the greenhouse gases from farm animals as part of a plan to fight climate change. The government said the taxes would be a world's first. They said that farmers should be able to get the money back by charging more for climate-friendly products. Farm animals produce gases through natural processes like burping(打嗝) and urinating(排尿).But farmers quickly criticized the plan. Federated Farmers is the industry's main political support group. It said the plan would "rip(撕破) the guts(肠胃) out of small-town New Zealand" and see farms replaced with trees. Andrew Hoggard, the group's president, said farmers had been trying to work with the government for more than two years. They were working on a plan to reduce greenhouse gas production that would not decrease food production. Hoggard said, "Our plan was to keep farmers farming." But, with the taxes, he said, farmers would be quickly selling their farms.The conservative(保守的) ACT Party is the main opposition group. Members of the party said the plan would increase worldwide greenhouse gas production by moving farming to other countries that were less efficient at making food. New Zealand's farming industry is very important for its economy. Milk products, including those used to make milk for baby food in China, are the nation's largest export earner. There are just 5 million people in New Zealand. But the country has some 26 million sheep and 10 million farm animals producing milk and meat.About half ofNew Zealand's greenhouse gas comes from farms. Farm animals produce gasses that warm the planet like methane(甲烷) and nitrous oxide from burping and urinating.The New Zealand government wants to reduce greenhouse gas production and make the country carbon neutral(碳中和) by 2050.Under the government's proposal(提议), farmers would start to pay for greenhouse gas production in 2025. The price has yet to be finalized(最后定案). PrimeMinister(总理) Jacinda Ardern said all the money collected from the proposed tax would be put back into the industry. It would support new technology, research, and payments for farmers. Agriculture Minister Damien O'Connor said New Zealand farmers were already experiencing the impact(影响) of climate change with periods of dry weather and flooding. "Taking the lead on agricultural emissions is both good for the environment and our economy," he said.The proposal is similar to another unsuccessful proposal made in 2003 to tax farm animals for their methane production. Back then, farmers greatly opposed the idea and political opponents(对手) criticized it. And the government dropped the plan.The debate in New Zealand is part of a larger international discussion on the effects of farming on the environment and the steps some say are needed to reduce its impact. In the European nation of the Netherlands, farmers have blocked large, busy roads with farming products and vehicles. They did so to protest government proposals to decrease the production of greenhouse gases.(535 words)根据文章内容,选最佳答案:1.New Zealand’s government advises the farmers to ________.A. cut the number of their farm animals.B. pay more taxes because of the climate change.C. sale their products at higher price.D. stop their animals to produce less greenhouse gases.2. If the tax comes into force, ______________.A. the farmers will make more money from the products.B. the farmers will plant more trees instead of keep animals.C. more farms will disappearD. more food production will be on sale.3. The words of "rip the guts out of small-townNew Zealand" from Federated Farmers infers that _______A. the gases from the farm animals’burping and urinating change the climate.B. people will get hungry because the farmers reduce their food production.C. the plan will increase worldwide greenhouse gas productionD.New Zealand's farming industry is very important for its economy.4. Which is the most important export product in New Zealand?A. Milk productsB. meat from farm animalsC. planting productions from the farms.D. wooding productions from the farm trees5. Which is untrue about the taxing plan?A. It will started in 2025.B. It was first proposed in 2003.C. It is both good for New Zealand’s environment and economy.D. It can collect money to help the farmers.(20)More school systems are making an effort to deal with some of the problems teachers face, including taking care of their mental health. Many schools do not have enough teachers.Current problems facing teachers include behavioral problems and fears of shootings.Some school districts have provided increased mental health training for workers and support in the classroom. They have also provided resources aimed at identifying burned out teachers and getting them connected to help. Being burned out means a person has become very physically and emotionally tired after doing a difficult job for a long time. A recent opinion study by the Rand Corporation found that twice as many principals and teachers reported frequent job-related stress as other working adults.The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention(CDC) noted a similar study that came from a coalition(联合,联盟) of mental health organizations in New Orleans. It found educators working during the COVID-19 pandemic reported rates of emotional difficulties similar to those of health care workers. It found 36 percent showed signs of anxiety, 35 percent had depression, and 19 percent showed signs of post-traumatic(痛苦难忘的) stress disorder.Leigh Mclean is the main investigator at the Teacher Emotions, Characteristics, and Health Lab at the University of Delaware School of Education. She said, "It's all pretty bad. She found levels of depression, anxiety, and emotional tiredness among elementary school teachers that are 100 to 400 percent higher than before the pandemic. She said those problems are increasing the most among less experienced teachers. She said she recognized similarities between teachers and the general population "with underrepresented groups being hit the hardest…"Some districts have or are planning to spend federal COVID-19 aid money on teacher mental health. They hope it mightimprove the classroom environment, keep teachers on the job and help students. Nebraska and Pennsylvania are among the states choosing teacher mental health as a top goal.A Delaware school district hired two social and emotional learning experts who deal with problems teachers are having in the classroom. And an elementary school in Indiana starts the week with Mindful Mondays, where teachers guide their classes in deep breathing. There are also Thoughtful Thursdays, where a student is called on to write a letter to someone working at the school to show that they are thankful. And on Friday Focus students and teachers talk about self-care.A growing number of groups offer training to improve mental health. Methods include breathing exercises, yoga, gentle movements and meditation(冥想). One program aimed at improving mental health is Cultivating Awareness and Resilience in Education, or CARE. Researchers found improvements, including reductions in mental health problems, in studies of its use among 224 New York City teachers. The studies also found reductions in stress and improvements in quality classroom interactions. Researchers found it helped students show increased engagement(参与).(469 words)根据文章内容,选择最佳答案:1. The following problems teachers are facing are included except ________.A. behavioral problemsB. fears of shootingsC. experience shortageD. overworking2. Which is the correct definition of the underline phrase burned out?A. 心灰意冷的B. 无可奈何的C. 筋疲力尽的D. 无计可施的3. The educators’emotional difficulties during the COVID-19 pandemic include the followings except _____.A. anxietyB. depressionC. emotional tirednessD. classroom interactions4. On ________, the teachers will discuss how to take goo care of their emotions.A. Mindful MondaysB. Thoughtful ThursdaysC. Friday FocusD. Relaxing Saturdays5. The program CARE can help to __________.A. reduce mental health problemsB. improve quality classroom interactionsC. take some gentle movements like breathing exercises and yogaD. relax the teachers and students.高中英语阅读理解练习答案及句子精讲(19-20)答案:(19)1C 2C 3D 4A 5B(20)1C 2C 3D 4D 5C句子精讲:(19)1.

英语中的句子理解和练习新东方实用英语学院李溯英语中的方位表达•介词in,on,to 都可以用来表示某个位置的方向,它们的意义不同,故表示的方向及范围也不同:•1. in 表示方位,含义是“在……之内”,即一个小地方处在一个大地方的范围(疆域)之内。
例如:英语中的方位表达•Taiwan lies in the east of China. 台湾在中国的东部。
(台湾是中国东部的一个省份,是中国的领土,在中国的疆域之内)英语中的方位表达•Shanghai lies in the east of China. 上海位于中国的东部。
(上海是中国的一个行政区域,在中国的疆域之内)英语中的方位表达•on 表示方位,含义是“在……端/边”,即一个地方在另一个地方的某一端或某一边,两个地方只是相邻或接壤,却互不管辖。
例如:英语中的方位表达•Guangdong Province is on the southeast of Guangxi. 广东省在广西的东南边。
(广东省与广西在地理位置上是连在一起的,即两者相邻,却互不管辖)英语中的方位表达•Sichuan Province is on the north of Guizhou Province. 四川省在贵州省的北边。
(四川省与贵州省在地理上也是连在一起的,但互不管辖)英语中上课的表达•那上課去怎么說?•一般就是I go to school 或I have class ,难一点的說法就是:英语中上课的表达•I attend classes 或I attend language program 也行attend 就是参加,language program 就是语言课程!文中重点表达•trouble还可以表示"令人烦恼的事情;问题"•What's the trouble? (有什么困难)?这句话相当于说"What's the matter?"。
•文中重点表达I had trouble with thisquestion.我因这个问题而烦恼。
She's had a lot of troublewith her husband.她经常跟先生闹意见。
并列句中的省略•并列句的省略是最常见的,一般说来,在后一并列句中凡是与上文相同的成分通常都会被省略。
•To some people smile is very easy, and to others (smile is) so hard.•复合句中的省略•复合句的句尾和主句相重复时从句的句尾部分可省掉•Mary is going to sweep the floor because Alice won't (sweep the floor).•重点词组•词组“hear from sb.”。
当我们在写信时,我们有时是希望收信人能够为我们完成一件事情,你为了能尽早地知道结果,在一封信的最后往往会说一些很客气的话,比如我盼望能早日收到您的来信。
重点词组•这是一句套话,在英文中也有相应的一个词组来表达相同的意思,就是“hear from sb”。
这个词组的含义是“收到某人的来信”。
在运用这个词组时,你需要注意两点。
重点词组•第一,虽然在这个词组中,根本就没有出现一个与信有关的单词,但是它的含义就是“收到某人的来信”。
这也就是说如果你想要表达“收到你的来信”时,你应该写成“hear from you”,而不能写成“hear from your letter”。
重点词组•第二,from是一个介词,所以它后面的人称代词应该用宾格形式。
比如当我们要表述“收到他的来信”时,我们应该写成“hear from him”,而不应该写成“hear from he/ his”,这两种写法都是绝对错误的。
英语中的特殊句型•句型:So + be / have / 情态动词/ 助动词+ 主语•这是主谓倒装结构,表示前面的情况也适合于后者,或“……(的情况)也是如此”。
••英语中的特殊句型•1. 用这一结构时,前后两句必须是肯定句,两句的时态及谓语动词必须一致。
英语中的特殊句型•(1) I‘m a student, so is he. 我是学生,他也是。
•(2) She went to the airport, so did Jim. 她去了机场,吉姆也去了。
•英语中的特殊句型•never….before 的中文意思是“再也没有比…更….的了”.英语中的特殊句型•I‘ve never seen such a beautiful girl before.我以前从未见过这么美丽的女孩。
neither...nor...•neither...nor...表示"既不……也不……"。
其含义是否定的,可连接任意两个并列的成份。
例如:She likes neither butter nor cheese. 她既不喜欢黄油也不喜欢乳酪。
neither...nor...•此句中neither...nor...连接两个宾语。
当neither...nor...连接两个主语时,也应遵循"就近原则"。
例如:Neither dad nor mum is at home today. 今天父母都不在家。
•同义词辨析•leave, leave for•leave离开,leave for前往•[例] He leaves home at eight. 他八点出门。
•[例] She will leave Taiwan for New York tomorrow. 她明天将离开台湾前往纽约。
•英语中的特殊句型•英语中too +adj./adv. + to do sth.表示否定,意思为"太……以致不能……",这时too后面的形容词或副词往往是表示性质或特征的词。
英语中的特殊句型•too +adj.+ to do sth.结构除表示否定意义外,还可以表示肯定意思。
这时too后面常常跟表示心情、态度或倾向性方面的形容词, 此时too的意思是"十分;非常;很"等。
例如: 英语中的特殊句型•The boy is too young to go to school.这男孩年龄太小,不能上学。
•He walks too slowly to get there on time.他走得太慢,不能按时到达那儿。
英语中的特殊句型•prefer A to B•在本句型中,A与B是平行结构,可以是名词,也可以都是动名词。
•I prefer dogs to cats.•I prefer staying at home to going out.英语中的特殊句型•either...or...意为"或者……或者……;不是……就是……"之意。
表示两者之一,连接句子中两个并列的成分。
例如:英语中的特殊句型•When the girl is happy, she either sings or dances. 那个女孩高兴时,不是唱就是跳。
(此句中either...or...连接两个动词,因为主语是单数第三人称,谓语动词要用其相应的形式。
) 英语中的特殊句型•Both brothers are not here.英语中的特殊句型•这个句子不能翻译成"兄弟两个都不在这儿",而应该翻译成"两个兄弟一个在这儿,一个不在这下]"。
其中both…not为部分否定,而非全部否定。
要表示全部否定,应该用neit her…nor。
英语中的特殊句型•His parents are not both dead.•他的双亲一个已经去世,另一个还健在。
英语中的特殊句型•He is a good sailor.•此句的真正含义为He is not liable to seasickness.或He is seldom seasick in rough weather.不会晕船。
"而不是指"他是一个好水手"英语中的特殊句型•意义相对的句子为He is a bad sailor.要表示他是一个好水手的含义,应该说: He is a skilled seaman.英语中的特殊句型•good和bad在这种句式中含义为"能力的大小"、"动作的特征",而非指人的道德品质,如我们说a good thief 指的是someone who thieves well; a good learner指的是someone who learns well.英语中的特殊句型•They did not come to my room because they wanted to see me.此句含义为他们到我的房间里来不是因为要看我而是有其他的原因。
英语中的特殊句型•这是一个特殊结构的句子,其中的not用来否定because引导的状语从句,而非否定主句的谓语动词。
调整一下句子结构,我们就可以看清楚了: They came to my room not because they wanted to see me.英语中的特殊句型•The car did not stop running because the fuel was finished.•This machine is not expensive because it is new.英语中的特殊句型•He reminded me that I had better not go there today. I shook my head.英语中的特殊句型•此句的正确翻译为"提醒我今天最好不要到那儿去,我点头同意。
在此,shook my head表示nodded my head,这是英语和汉语两种语言不同的地方。
英语中的特殊句型•英语中的回答针对的是事实,为了表示"同意不去",所以用shook my head,而汉语是直接针对问题。
