译林版选修一 Unit 3 The art of painting

【重点句型及语法知识点】

1.while引导让步状语从句

析while引导让步状语从句时,意为“尽管:虽然”,相当于though/al

though,但语气比though/although弱。while引导的让步状语从句一般放在句首,而though/although引导的让步状语从句可位于主句之前或之后。另外,while还可意为“当…的时候”,引导时间状语从句,此时从句中的谓语动词只能是延续性的。

While it was hard to pick a favourite painting out of so many amazing works, the artists who made the deepest impression on me were two of the greatest Impressionist painters,Claude Monet and Pierre-Auguste Renoir.虽然很难从这么多令人惊叹的作品中挑选出一

幅最喜爱的画,但给我印象最深的画家是两位最伟大的印象

画家,克劳德·莫奈和皮埃尔奥古斯特·雷诺阿。

2. “It is/was..that/who…”强调句

强调句的基本结构”It is/was+被强调部分+that/who.…”能强调句子的主语、宾语和状语。强调人时引导词可用who或that,强其他部分时只能用that,且that/who不能省略。原句是过去的某种时态时,用”It was.…”;原句为现在的某种时态时,用”It is.…”如果被强调部分是句子的主语,that/who之后的谓语动词在人称和数上与句子的主语一致。

要点归纳

强调句的几种复杂结构

1.被强调的部分是状语从句:

It was when Asimov was 11 years old that his talent for writ-

ing became obvious.

→时间状语从句

在阿西莫夫11岁时他的写作才华开始变得明显。

2.被强调的部分含有定语从句:

It was at a bank that lies on the main street that the old man was

robbed of 1,000 dollars.

→定语从句

就是在位于主干道上的一家银行,这位老人被抢走了1000

美元。

3.”not..until..”结构用于强调句:对“not..until..”进行强调时,

应把 not与 until一起放入被强调部分,即用”It is/was not

until..that..”句式。

It is not until you have lost health that you truly appreciate its

value.直到失去了健康你才能真正懂得它的价值。

Although the paintings had very different settings, it was their similarities that stayed with me long after I left the Musée d’Orsay—similarities which can be seen throughout the Impressionists’ paintings.

虽然这些画的背景迥然不同,但在我离开奥赛博物馆很久之后,我仍清楚记得它们的相似之处——这些相似之处在印象派画家的画作中随处可见。(教材p.31)

such位于句首的倒装句

析”such/so.…that.…””意为“如此……以至于……”,”such/so.….”部分置

于句首时,主句用部分倒装语序。

Such is its worth that several later emperors even asked the most

talented artists of their day to make copies of the scroll.

这幅画价值如此之高,以至于后世有几位皇帝甚至命令当朝最有

才华的画家来临摹这幅长卷。(教材p.40)

★语法归纳

动词-ing形式和动词-ed形式作表语

动词-ing形式常修饰物作表语表示主语的特征动词-ed形式

说明主语的状态

1.动词-ing形式作表语

动词-ing形式作表语通常说明主语的性质、特征,常修饰物。

The result of the game is very surprising.

比赛的结果让人很惊讶。(说明事物的特征)

2.动词-ed形式作表语

动词-ed形式作表语通常说明主语的状态或感受,常修饰人。

例 We were greatly surprised at the news.

我们听到这个消息后深感意外。(说明人的感受)

3.注意事项

(1)动词-ing形式和动词-ed形式作表语时,动词色彩常常被淡化,而形容词化了,后面通常不能跟宾语,可以被very、rather、greatly等副词修饰。

例 She is greatly pleased with the results. 她对结果非常满意。

(2)有时动词-ing形式表示主语所指的内容,这时动词-ing形式仍然可以带有逻辑主语或者宾语。

My aim is everybody’s having a good time.

我的目标是大家都玩得开心
