第一個(gè)故事發(fā)生在秘魯,一位美國(guó)婦女在餐館里用餐。她問(wèn)服務(wù)員: Excuse me. Where could I wash my hands? 服務(wù)員把她帶到洗手間,可不巧,正有一些工人在粉刷洗手間的墻壁。
工人們一看有人要用洗手間,就準(zhǔn)備離開。服務(wù)員攔住他們,說(shuō): That's Ok. Stay. She only wants to wash her hands. 在英語(yǔ)里,wash my hands實(shí)際上是上廁所的委婉說(shuō)法。
那個(gè)服務(wù)員按照字面意思理解,結(jié)果鬧了笑話。 還有一次,一個(gè)留學(xué)生在國(guó)外的學(xué)校第一天上學(xué),心里又興奮又緊張。
一個(gè)美國(guó)人見到一張新面孔,為了表示友好,就問(wèn): Hi! What's the good word? 留學(xué)生一聽到這個(gè),立刻傻眼了,他想, My God! I don't know the good word. I've studied English for years, but no one told me about the good word! 他猶豫再三,想,反正我也不知道,就問(wèn)問(wèn)他好了。于是他吞吞吐吐地問(wèn): Hello. What's the good word? 老美聽了,很隨意地說(shuō): Oh, not much. 這下,這個(gè)留學(xué)生就更吃驚了! 原來(lái),What's the good word? 在美語(yǔ)里,是一句問(wèn)候語(yǔ),意思是“你還好嗎?”但問(wèn)話的人并不指望你把遇到的高興的事情都一一告訴他,只是打個(gè)招呼而已。
但這個(gè)留學(xué)生以為對(duì)方真的在問(wèn)什么是Good word,所以鬧了笑話,不過(guò)還好,也算給他歪打正著了。 下面的故事就更有意思了。
一次,一個(gè)美國(guó)公司的管理人員給公司一個(gè)駐外分部發(fā)了一份傳真,要求對(duì)方把職員。
6. 英語(yǔ)基本知識(shí)有哪些
單詞 和 語(yǔ)法 一、英語(yǔ)語(yǔ)句基本結(jié)構(gòu)分析: 主謂賓結(jié)構(gòu): 主語(yǔ):可以作主語(yǔ)的成分有名詞(如boy),主格代詞(如you),動(dòng)詞不定式,動(dòng)名詞等。
主語(yǔ)一般在句首。注意名詞單數(shù)形式常和冠詞不分家! 謂語(yǔ):謂語(yǔ)由動(dòng)詞構(gòu)成,是英語(yǔ)時(shí)態(tài)、語(yǔ)態(tài)變化的主角,一般在主語(yǔ)之后。
不及物動(dòng)詞(vi.)沒有賓語(yǔ),形成主謂結(jié)構(gòu),如:We come. 賓語(yǔ):賓語(yǔ)位于及物動(dòng)詞之后,一般同主語(yǔ)構(gòu)成一樣,不同的是構(gòu)成賓語(yǔ)的代詞必須是‘代詞賓格’,如:me,him,them等 例:The boy needs a pen.主語(yǔ)the boy,謂語(yǔ)needs(need的第三人稱單數(shù)形式),賓語(yǔ)a pen. 主系表結(jié)構(gòu): 主語(yǔ):同‘主謂賓’結(jié)構(gòu)。 聯(lián)系動(dòng)詞(Link verb):be動(dòng)詞(am,is,are,was,were,have been);其他聯(lián)系動(dòng)詞如:become成為,turn變成,go變。
其特點(diǎn)是聯(lián)系動(dòng)詞與其后的表語(yǔ)沒有動(dòng)賓關(guān)系,表語(yǔ)多為形容詞或副詞,既,不可能是賓語(yǔ)。 表語(yǔ):說(shuō)明主語(yǔ)的狀態(tài)、性質(zhì)、等。
可為形容詞、副詞、名詞、代詞、不定式、分詞。當(dāng)聯(lián)系動(dòng)詞不是be,而其后是名詞和代詞時(shí),多表達(dá)‘轉(zhuǎn)變?yōu)椤?,注意與動(dòng)賓關(guān)系的區(qū)別。
感官動(dòng)詞多可用作聯(lián)系動(dòng)詞:look well/面色好,sound nice/聽起來(lái)不錯(cuò),feel good/感覺好,smell bad/難聞 例:Tom is a boy.(Tom是個(gè)男孩)/主語(yǔ)為Tom,系詞為be動(dòng)詞的第三人稱單數(shù)is,表語(yǔ)為a boy There be 結(jié)構(gòu): There be 表示‘存在有’。這里的there沒有實(shí)際意義,不可與副詞‘there那里’混淆。
此結(jié)構(gòu)后跟名詞,表示‘(存在)有某事物’ 試比較:There is a boy there.(那兒有一個(gè)男孩。)/前一個(gè)there無(wú)實(shí)意,后一個(gè)there為副詞‘那里’。
二、定語(yǔ):定語(yǔ)是對(duì)名詞或代詞起修飾、限定作用的詞、短語(yǔ)或句子,漢語(yǔ)中常用‘……的’表示。 定語(yǔ)通常位于被修飾的成分前。
若修飾some,any,every,no構(gòu)成的復(fù)合不定代詞時(shí),(如:something、nothing);或不定式、分詞短語(yǔ)作定語(yǔ)、從句作定語(yǔ)時(shí),則定語(yǔ)通常置后。副詞用作定語(yǔ)時(shí)須放在名詞之后。
形容詞作定語(yǔ): The little boy needs a blue pen.(little修飾名詞boy;blue修飾名詞pen.)/小男孩需要一支蘭色的鋼筆。 Tom is a handsome boy./Tom是個(gè)英俊的男孩。
There is a good boy./有個(gè)乖男孩。 數(shù)詞作定語(yǔ)相當(dāng)于形容詞: Two boys need two pens./兩個(gè)男孩需要兩支鋼筆。
The two boys are students./這兩個(gè)男孩是學(xué)生。 There are two boys in the room./房間里有兩個(gè)男孩。
代詞或名詞所有格作定語(yǔ): His boy needs Tom's pen./他的男孩需要Tom的鋼筆。 His name is Tom./他的名字是湯姆。
There are two boys of Toms there./那兒有Tom家的兩個(gè)男孩。 介詞短語(yǔ)作定語(yǔ): The boy in the classroom needs a pen of yours./教室里的男孩需要你的一支鋼筆。
The boy in blue is Tom./穿蘭色衣服的孩子是湯姆。 There are two boys of 9,and three of 10./有兩個(gè)9歲的,三個(gè)10歲的男孩。
名詞作定語(yǔ): The boy needs a ball pen./男孩需要一支圓珠筆。 It is a ball pen./這是一支圓珠筆。
There is only one ball pen in the pencil box./這鉛筆盒里只有一支圓珠筆。 副詞作定語(yǔ): The boy there needs a pen./那兒的男孩需要一支鋼筆。
The best boy here is Tom./這里最棒的男孩是Tom。 不定式作定語(yǔ): The boy to write this letter needs a pen./寫這封信的男孩需要一支鋼筆。
The boy to write this letter is Tom./將要寫這封信的男孩是湯姆。 There is nothing to do today./今天無(wú)事要做。
分詞(短語(yǔ))作定語(yǔ): The smiling boy needs a pen bought by his mother./那個(gè)微笑的男孩需要一支他媽媽買的鋼筆。 The pen bought by her is made in China./她買的筆是中國(guó)產(chǎn)的。
There are five boys left./有五個(gè)留下的男孩。 定語(yǔ)從句: The boy who is reading needs the pen which you bought yesterday./那個(gè)在閱讀的男孩需要你昨天買的鋼筆。
The boy you will know is Tom./你將認(rèn)識(shí)的男孩叫湯姆。 There are five boys who will play the game./參加游戲的男孩有五個(gè)。
