這種“比較級+and+比較級”結構表達“越來越……”之意。 eg:
summer comes, the weather is hotter and hotter.
夏天已經到了,天氣越來越熱了。
四、典型病句診斷
1.病句:we are not allowed playing with fire.
診斷:we are not allowed to play with fire.
點撥:把句中的playing改為to play。本句使用的是allow sb. to do sth.的被動語態,應該是sb. be allowed to do sth.
2.病句:he has set out to beijing.
診斷:he has set out for beijing.
點撥:把句中的to改為for。“動身去某地”用“set out for sp.”是固定搭配。
3.病句:this machine has an electric fault.
診斷:this machine has an electrical fault.
點撥:把句中的electric改為electrical。electric是“用電的/帶電的/發電的/電的”之意,而electrical表達“有關于電的”之意。根據本句之意,應表達“有關電的毛病”,所以要把electric改為electrical。
4.病句:columbus found out america.
診斷:columbus discovered america.
點撥:found out表示“弄明白,搞清楚”之意。而“哥倫布發現了美洲”很明顯應是發現本來就存在而以前未能發現的美洲,應用discover表達這種含義。
5.病句:we’ll have a party in the open air instead in the house.
診斷:we’ll have a party in the open air instead of in the house.
點撥:instead是副詞,而介詞短語instead of后面才能跟介詞短語。若用instead,上句可改為:we won’t have a party in the house. instead we will have it ni the open air.。
6.病句:what have you been doing latest?
診斷:what have you been doing lately?
點撥:“latest”是adj. ,表達“最新的;最近的”之意,而句中需要一個副詞表達“最近”之意。
7.病句:i took 3 hours doing my homework.
診斷:i spent 3 hours doing my homework.
點撥:spend表“花費”之意,其結構是“sb. spend(s)/spent/will spend some time on sth./(in) doing sth.”。而take當“花費”講時,結構是“it take/took/will take sb. some to do sth.”。
8.病句:these old pictures reminded me my childhood.
診斷:these old pictures reminded me of my childhood.
點撥:remind不能跟雙賓語,即不能構成remind sb. sth.結構,表達“提醒某人某事”時要用“remind sb. of sth.”結構。
9.病句:what have you done by the old things?
診斷:what have you done with the old things?
點撥:by之后加手段或方式,with之后加有形的工具或器官。the old things是工具,所以用with。其次,do with還有“處理”,“放置”之意。
10.病句:all which she did made us very surprised.
診斷:all that she did made us very surprised.
點撥:當先行詞為不定代詞時,定語從句應由that引導,不能用which。all為不定代詞。其他的不定代詞如everything, something, little, much等也符合這種用法。
