5.语调
英语中的基本语调有:升调(↗),降调(↘),升降调(∧),
降升调(∨)和平调(→)。其用法为:
(1)升调:主要用于一般疑问句,带有疑问语气;也可用于
祈使句,表示委婉、客气;或用于陈述句,表示疑问、不肯定
或不耐烦等。如:Can you come to us for lunch?↗
你能来和我们一起吃午饭吗?
You know her?↗你认识她?
So long!↗太长了!
(2)降调:主要用于陈述句、特殊疑问句、祈使句(表命令)
和感叹句。如:
The birds are singing in the trees.↘鸟儿正在树上歌唱。
When shall I give you the book?↘
我什么时候要把书给你?
Leave the book on the desk.↘把书放在桌子上。
What a beautiful picture!↘多美的画啊!(3)前升后降调:主要用于:
①选择疑问句。如:
Which do you prefer, tea↗ or coffee? ↘
你更喜欢喝哪一种,茶还是咖啡?
②以状语或状语从句开头的句子。如:
In my opinion,↗he is perfectly right.↘
依我看,他完全正确。
③计数或列举。如:
One,↗two, ↗three↗ and four.↘一,二,三,四。
I want a pen,↗ a ruler ↗and some paper.↘
我需要一枝笔、一把尺子和几张纸。注意:and 连接的几个并列的词或短语, and 前面的都读
升调,其后的读降调。
(4)前降后升调:主要用于带有疑问语气的反意疑问句。如:
You haven't finished it,↘have you?↗
你还没完成,是吗?
如果反意疑问句中的疑问成分很少,则全部用降调。如:
It's a nice day, ↘isn't it?↘天气真好,不是吗?
(5)平调:指说话声调维持在同一个高度,而无升降。如何丰富句子的表达
大多数考生写英语作文时,往往不注意语句表达形式的多
样化,句子千篇一律,缺乏生气。这里列举一些简单可行的方
法,以帮助考生丰富句子表达,提高英文写作水平。
1.改变句子长度
初学写作的人容易堆砌简单的短句,读起来单调乏味。如
果改变句子长度,做到短句、中长句、长句兼而有之,情况就
大不一样了。如:①There is one positive result of the rising crime.②This has
been the growth of neighbourhood crime prevention
programs.③These programs really work.④They teach citizens to
patrol their neighbourhoods.⑤They teach citizens to work with the
police.⑥They have dramatically reduced crime in cities and towns
across the country.⑦The idea is catching on.
文段中 7 个句子都是短句,十分单调。现在我们对句子长
度做些调整:
①One positive result of the rising crime rate has been the
growth of neighbourhood crime prevention programs.②Theseprograms really work.③By teaching citizens to patrol their
neighbourhoods and work with the police, they have dramatically
reduced crime in cities and towns across the country.④The idea is
catching on.
修改后的这段文字,有短句②和④,有中长句①,也有长
句③,不仅避免了句子单调化,还使长句更说明问题,短句也
更显力度。
2.将若干简单句合并为一个简单句
为避免堆砌简单短句,可把原若干简单句合并成只带一个
共同主语的简单句。(1)使用并列谓语
He put on his coat.He picked his hat and umbrella.Then he
hurried from the house.变为:
He put on his coat, picked his hat and umbrella, and hurried
from the house.
他穿上外套,拿起帽子和雨伞就急匆匆地从家出去了。
(2)使用分语短语
Judith is alarmed by the increase in meat price.She has become
a vegetarian.变为:
Alarmed by the increase in meat price, Judith has become a
vegetarian.因担心肉价上涨,朱迪思已开始吃素食。(3)使用同位语
She was the mayor of the town.She was an amiable person.She
invited the four students into her office.变为:
The mayor of the town, an amiable person, invited the four
students to her office.
镇长是一位和蔼的人,她邀请了四名学生到她的办公室。
(4)使用短语
英语中的短语十分丰富,选择面极宽。选用适当的短语把
几个简单句合并起来,是增加句子灵活性的一条捷径。如:
The streets are icy.We could not drive the car.变为:
Because of the icy streets, we could not drive the car.
由于路面结冰,我们不能开车。(5)善于使用连接词
有的考生写复杂句时,动辄用 so, and, but, or, then, however,
yet 等,非但达不到丰富表达方式的目的,反而会使句子结构松
散、刻板。如:
The Mississippi River is one of the longest rivers in the world,
and in spring often overflows its banks, and the lives of many
people are endangered.
and 把 3 个分句一贯到底,既乏味又可笑。因此,应慎用上
述并列连词、副词等。如果可能,不妨多用一些表示从属关系的连接词,如 who, which, that; because, since; after, as, before,
when, whenever; if, unless; as if 等。如上例可改为:
The Mississippi River, which is one of the longest rivers in the
world, often overflows its banks in spring, endangering the lives of
many people.
密西西比河是世界上最长的河流之一,在春季时河水经常
会泛滥,严重危及两岸人民的生活。3.打破传统的主谓结构
主谓结构的句子写多了,偶尔用几个词或短语恰到好处地
插入主谓之间,或将主谓倒置,可以为句子表达增添几分新意。
如:
Her ability to listen is an acquired skill that attracts many
friends.变为:
Her ability to listen, an acquired skill, attracts many friends.她
所具备的善于聆听的特质吸引了很多朋友。
