第五章 句子变长的秘诀
——前后法则
第一节 解密句子变长的根本原因
Eg:小丽打小军 这里只有三个信息,小丽,小军,打.更进一步分析只有两类词性..也就是A→B句型 即名词+动词+名词
你会发现,信息量太少,不能传递太多的信息
如何让名词动词传递更多的信息呢?
1)句子变长的核心按钮之一---名词
方法:对名词修饰
→(淘气的)小丽打(可怜的)小军
2.句子变长的核心按钮之一---动词
补充动词的,程度,时间,地点,原因限定
→(淘气的)小丽昨天在教室打了(可怜的)小军
句子是不是有变长了?
第二节英语句子变长的总结规律:"前后“法则
1.定语的位置
英语中的位置,可在名词前,也可以在名词后,但要遵循”短前长后”
怎么来界定短,长呢
单词是短的,短语和句子是长的
Eg:the book ,the greatest book, the greatest book in the world
Eg: a woman, a beautiful woman,a beautiful woman with a smile
解析:上面的例子,都能找到共同点,以名词为核心,定语的位置遵循“短前长后”的原则,我们把“定语+名词”的结构叫作名词短语.
2.状语的位置
英语中表示时间,地点,原因等的状语从句,一般在整个句子的前后
我们先来看看下面一段对话
A father told his son,“when Lincoln was your age ,he walked ten miles to school every day” The kid replied, "well,when he was your age,he was President,he was President.
精彩解析:看来,跟孩子沟通还真是一门学问哟.在这里when Lincoln was your age,he walked ten miles to school every day,就加入两个很明显的时间状语when Lincoln was your age和 every day,他们位于整个句子的前后,得出结论,大家一定要引起重视
句子变长“总规律”:前后法则
1.名词前后加定语,短前,长后
2.在动词前后加状语,时间,地点,方式等
状语限定动词时,当有多个状语是,时间状语可以多放在句子前保持句子平衡
第三节 句子变长“总动员”
1)We may study English

3)Students like playing computer games
