英语句子中的省略的用法

  导语:“省略”不仅是一种以无为有的表达方法,更是一种简便至极, 虽无胜有的修辞手段。 下面cnfla小编为您收集整理了英语句子中的省略的用法,希望对您有帮助!

  1. 简单句的省略

  a) 名词所有格之后的省略

  b) 含there be结构中的省略

  (Is there) Anything wrong?

  c) 独立主格结构中的分词如为being或having been时的省略

  d) 不定式的省略

  ①并列的不定式

  ②为避免重复,作某些动词hope, want等宾语或tell, order, ask的宾补时,省略不定式短语,只保留不定式符号to.

  ( 此句中 not to 后省略了和上文相重复的play in the street.)

  ③感官动词see, hear, feel, notice, hear或使役动词let, make, have,等后跟不定式作宾补时省略to.

  I saw the girl cross the street.

  I had my father repair my bike.

  注意:当感官动词与使役动词用于被动时,需恢复to的省略。如:The girl was seen to cross the street.

  ④有had better, would rather, can't but 或Why not等句型后面直接跟动词原形,实际上是接省to的不定式。

  You had better tell me the truth.

  I could not but (to) laugh at him.

  Why not go and ask the teacher for help?

  ⑤在回答问句及其它形式的答语中,如有和上文重复的不定式时,在答语中只保留其不定式符号to,而把动词和其它部分省略。

  e) 介词(或介词短语)的省略

  ①动名词前面的介词in在一定条件下常被省略
