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.)
