2015年职称英语考试中的省略与代替

2015-02-28 09:03 来源:医学教育网

职称英语考试中,为了避免不必要的重复,经常用so,not,to,do,does 代替前面出现的动词或相关内容。

如:He translated the article better than I did.(did代替wrote it)

—Doyou think she isclever?

—I think so.(so代替 she is clever)

(1)从上两例中看出,do / does / did 代替动词。

(2)“so 与 not” 代替某个词、短语、句子等,通常用于hope,think,believe,expect,suppose,be afraid,fear,imagine,etc后作宾语。

E.g. —Is it correct?

—I'm afraid not. (not correct)

(3)“to” 用作不定式,常跟随下列动词:want,mean,hope,expect,refuse,seem,intend,be,afraid,etc.

E.g. I asked him to go to the party,but he refused to. (go to the party)

(4)“do so,do that,do it” 用来代替动态动词,而不能代静态动词。

Eg. —He gave up studying English.

—Why did he do so?(= give up studying English)

—The dish tastes nice.

—Yes,so it does.(tastes nice)

(此句不能用it does it 或 it does so,因taste属静态动词。)

(5)为使语言精炼,避免不必要的重复,对话中常用省略形式。

E.g. —He is thinking of buying a car?

—Is he?(这里,“thinking of buying a car”被省略了。)

—Will he come back in time?

—Perhaps.(省略了he will come back in time.)
