句式精讲
1. Maybe I need a change.
maybe作副词,主要用于非正式场合,口语中常用,意为“也许,大概”。它通常放在句子的开头,在句子中作状语。例如:
Maybe they won’t come here tonight. 他们大概今晚不会来这儿。
Maybe she is happy. 也许她是幸福的。
【拓展】
may be是“情态动词may+动词原形be”构成的,在句中做谓语,意为“可能是、大概是”。例如:
She may be at home. 她可能在家。(也可以说:Maybe she is at home.)
You may be right. 你可能是对的。(也可以说:Maybe you are right.)
2. I used to collect baseball cards.
used to do sth.是一个固定结构,意思是“过去经常做某事”,后面用动词原形,表示过去的某种经常性、习惯性的行为或者动作,并意味着这种动作目前已经不存在。
肯定句:I used to play with my friends after school. 过去放学后我常常和朋友们一起玩。
否定句:You didn’t use to like pop songs.=You usedn’t to like pop songs.
你过去不喜欢流行歌曲。
一般疑问句:Did your sister use to be quiet? = Used your sister to be quiet?
你的妹妹过去常常是很安静吗?
there be句式:There used to be a lot of fishes in this river. 过去这条小河常常有许多鱼。
【拓展】
(1) be used to do something意思是“被用来做某事”,是动词短语use …to do的被动语态结构。例如:
Knives are used to cut things.小刀是用来切东西的。
(2)be used to doing something意思是“习惯于做某事”,to后接动词-ing形式。例如:
My father is used to living in the village. 我爸爸习惯于住在村子里。
3. All pets provide their owners with love and comfort in their lives.
provide为及物动词,意为“提供”。provide常与介词with或for连用,provide sb. with sth.表示“为某人提供某物”,其同意表达为 provide sth. for sb.。例如:
The Sun provides us with light and heat./ The Sun provides light and heat for us.
太阳给我们提供光和热。
Sheep provide us with wool. /Sheep provide wool for us.
羊供给我们羊毛。
4. He was an amazing child, a born musician.
amazing作形容词,意为“令人惊叹的;惊人的”,一般用来说明事物的特征。例如:
Just look at it. Isn’t it amazing?
你看看。真叫人惊叹!
It was amazing that he knew nothing about the event.
他对这个事件毫不知情,真让人感到诧异。

【拓展】
英语中,带-ing的形容词,用来形容事物,指某事物的性质、特征,意为“令人……的”“让人……的”,常用事物作主语或作定语修饰物。而带-ed的是用来形容人的,意为“感到……的”“使人……的”,其主语是人,类似的词有:
boring 令人厌烦的 interesting 令人感兴趣的 moving 令人感动的
bored(人)感到厌烦的 interested(人)感兴趣的 moved(人)感动的
tiring 令人厌倦的 surprising令人惊讶的
tired(人)感到疲倦/累/厌烦的 surprised(人)感到惊讶的
5. But the girl was afraid to go home without selling one box of matches.
(1)be afraid 之后可接不定式,也可接名词、代词或of doing sth. 表示“害怕做某事”或“不敢做某事”。例如:
She was afraid to tell you. 她害怕告诉你。
She is afraid of going out alone late at night. 她很怕深夜独自外出。
I’m afraid of the dog. 我怕狗。
(2)但若要表示担心可能会发生某事,则只能用 be afraid of doing而不能用 be afraid to do。
例如:
I’m afraid of being late for class. 我担心上课迟到。
【拓展】
be afraid后可接that从句,表示“担心……”。例如:
He is afraid that his father will be unhappy.
他担心他的爸爸会不高兴。
6. And then they felt too tired to work on Monday mornings.
too…to…意为“太……而不能”。它在结构形式上是肯定的,但意义上却表示否定含义,所以动词不定式符号to前不能再加not,只接动词原形即可,too后接形容词或副词原形。
例如:
The book is too difficult to understand. 这本书难于理解。
【拓展】
(1 )在too…to…句型中,当动词不定式的动词是不及物动词,其后所跟的介词不能省略。
例如:
The room is too small to live in. 这房间太小了不能住。
(2) 在too…to…句型中,当动词不定式的宾语实际上就是这个句子的主语时,动词不定式后面不能再加代词作宾语。
例如:
The question is too difficult to answer. 这个问题太难了,无法回答。
(3) 在too…to…句型中,当动词不定式能确切说明动作执行者时,可以在动词不定式前面加上逻辑主语,即for sb.形式。例如:
The box is too heavy for him to carry. 箱子太沉了,他搬不动。
(4) 含too…to…的句子可以改写成so…that…句型,意为“如此……以至于……”。例如:
He is too old to do hard work. =
He is so old that he can’t do hard work. 他年纪太大而不能干重活。
(5) 含too…to…的句子也可以用“not + 形容词/副词 + enough to do sth.”句型来替换,但注意要用原句中形容词或副词的反义词。例如:
He is too old to do hard work. =
He is not young enough to do hard work. 他年纪大了,不能做重活。
