1. 你知道感叹句的基本句型吗
______ terrible weather we have been having these days!
A. How aB. What aC. How D. What
此题应选D。容易误选B, C。感叹句的两类基本结构为:
a. How+adj. / adv. +主语+谓语!
b. What+(a / an)+adj. +n. +主语+谓语!
在 b类句型中要特别注意的是:若其中的名词是不可数名词(尤其是 advice, food, fun, harm, homework, housework, information, luck, news, progress, weather, wealth等)或复数名词, 则其前不用不定冠词。请做有关练习:
1. _____ careless he is!
A. WhatB. How C. So much D. How much
2. Oh, John. _____ pleasant surprise you gave us!
A. How aB. How C. What a D. What
3. _____ nice food you’ve cooked!
A. How aB. What aC. How D. What
4. _____ great fun it is!
A. WhatB. How C. What a D. How a
5. _____ bad luck we have had!
A. WhatB. How C. How aD. What a
6. _____ from Beijing to London!
A. How long way it is B. What a long way is it
C. How long way is it D. What a long way it is
答案:1. B 2. C 3. D 4. A 5. A 6. D
2. 这句话的词序值得注意
a. They ______ clever!
b. How clever they ______!
A. all are, all areB. are all, are allC. all are, are allD. are all, all are
此题应选D。容易误选B。
1. a句填are all(They are all clever), 这还好理解。
2. b句要填all are(How clever they all are), 这对考生来说就比较费解了。关于这个问题要注意两点:
(1) 在通常情况下, 像all, both, never, always, often等词应放在特殊动词(助动词, 情态动词, be动词)之后:
We are all students. 我们都是学生。
We have never been there. 我们从未去过那儿。
(2) 但是当all, both, never 等词和特殊动词位于句末时, 两者要交换位置:
他从未去过日本, 但我们俩去过。
误:He has never been to Japan, but we have both.
正:He has never been to Japan, but we both have.
(3) 由于感叹句的句型特点是
a. How+adj. / adv. +主语+谓语!
b. What+(a / an)+adj. +n. +主语+谓语!
即“主语+谓语”位于句末, 所以此时要特别注意:若谓语为“all, both等+特殊动词”, 不要搞错了位置:
a. They are both excited. 他们俩都很激动。
→How excited they both are! 他们俩真激动!
b. We are all pleased. 我们都很高兴。
→How pleased we all are. 我们都多么高兴!
