直接引語變?yōu)殚g接引語應(yīng)注意的幾個問題
本單元語法:直接引語變?yōu)殚g接引語應(yīng)注意的幾個問題
直接引語轉(zhuǎn)換成間接引語要遵循一些最基本的規(guī)則,特別是時態(tài)的前后呼應(yīng)及人稱代詞、時間狀語、地點狀語的變化。但在某些特定情況下,上述內(nèi)容并不產(chǎn)生變化。掌握好這些“變化”和“不變化”的規(guī)則,有助于我們準確地進行交際。
1. 時間狀語、地點狀語不用變化
、 如果說話時間和引述時間相同(如同一天、同一月等),時間狀語可不變。
“I finished writing my paper yesterday,” he said today.
→He told me today that he finished writing his paper yesterday.
② 說話人所處的地點與轉(zhuǎn)述的地點相同時,地點狀語here不必改為there。
He said, “I enjoy my stay here.”
→He said that he enjoyed his stay here.
2. 時態(tài)不用變化
在下列情況下,間接引語中的謂語動詞時態(tài)可以保持不變。
(1) 如果引述動詞為現(xiàn)在時,引語中的時態(tài)不必改動。
① 引述的談話還在繼續(xù)。
He says, “I’m trying to get more help.”
→He says that he’s trying to get more help.
、 引述某人經(jīng)常所說的話。
He says, “I will never get married.”
→He says that he will never get married.
(2) 如果引述動詞為過去時,間接引語中動詞的形式則在下列情況下不用變化:
、 直接引語如果是表達客觀真理、格言時。
He said, “Well done is better than well said.”
→He said that well done is better than well said.
、 直接引語中的謂語動詞與具體時間狀語連用時,間接引語時態(tài)可不變。
He told me, “Jurassic Park was made by Spielberg in 1993.”
→He told me that Jurassic Park was made by Spielberg in 1993.
③ 直接引語中的時間狀語為過去時形式,間接引語中狀語從句的謂語動詞時態(tài)可不變。
Mr. Smith said, “When we lived in this city, we often met each other.”
→Mr. Smith said that when they lived in that city they had often met each other.
3. 間接引語的句式變化
為了使表達更生動,更準確,我們在進行直接引語和間接引語轉(zhuǎn)換時,可使用不同的句式,這對提高我們的表達能力很有幫助。
“Merry Christmas!” he said.
→He wished me a merry Christmas.
“Help!” he cried.
→He called for help.
Mr. Wu said to them, “You’d better make preparations for the exam.”
→Mr. Wu advised them to make preparations for the exam.
4. 引述動詞的變化
為了讓表達更豐富多彩一些,引述動詞除了常見的tell,ask,say外,根據(jù)不同句式還可以選用下列動詞:
、 祈使句
、 表請求:ask, beg, request;
、 表命令:command, order, tell;
③ 表建議:suggest, advise等。
、 疑問句
① 一般語體:ask, wonder, want to know
、 正式語體:inquire / enquire等。
、 感嘆句
cry, shout, exclaim, call out, admit, wish等。
⑷ 陳述句
、 帶雙賓語(可用for改寫):bring, buy, choose, cook, do, fetch, get, leave, make, order,
paint, play, reach, save, spare等。
、 帶雙賓語(可用to 改寫):bring, deny, do, give, grant, hand, lead, offer, owe, pass,
pay, permit, promise, read, refuse, return, sell, send, show,
take, tell, throw, write等。
The boy said to his mother, “I’ll never smoke again.”
→The boy promised his mother never to smoke again.
“Call the police, Sean,” he said.
→He ordered Sean to call the police. (表命令的祈使句)
“Shall I post these letters for you?” he asked.
→He offered to post those letters for me. (表提供幫助的祈使句)

閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的四個選項(A、B、C或D)中,選出最佳選項。
A
My father woke me up early one summer morning when I was fourteen and announced: “Get up. You’re going with me to cut grass.”
The idea that my father actually thought I was big enough to help him in his business made me feel proud and excited. From sunup to sundown my father,my younger brother and I worked in the large yards in a rich part of Atlanta,Georgia. By the end of the day I was tired out,but I felt good. I had put in a hard day’s labor and had earned $6.?
One day my father found some leaves I’d missed and pulled me aside.“ Clear away these leaves,”he said firmly,“and don’t make me have to do it again.” The message was clear. Today I value the importance of doing a job right the first time. It will never fail to impress the person you are working for.?
After two years my father told me and my brother that he felt we were old enough to do lawns(草坪)on our own. Every Saturday during our last two years of high school,we set out early in the morning with the same desire and drive we had gained while working under our father.
Taking care of lawns was not exciting or high-paying,but that didn’t matter. It taught me that any job was a good job and that whatever I was paid was more than I had before.
A newspaper reporter once asked me how someone could possibly live on a forty-hour-a-week minimum(最低的)pay. “My father never worked just forty hours a week,and neither have I,”I replied. “If you’re only working forty hours,you probably don’t want to do any better than you’re doing.”
In every job I’ve held from doing lawns to washing dishes,I have learned something that helped me in my next job. If you work hard enough,you can learn from any job you do.

What would school be like without head teachers? Could students look after themselves,or would they be lost?
You can find the answer in Chang chun,Jilin. At the No.1 Middle School of Changchun’s First Automobile Factory,students are doing fine without a head teacher.
From April 6,all 18 Junior 2 classes at the school have not had head teachers. The school hopes students will learn to take care of themselves this way.?
"It seems like no one is taking care of us,"said Li Huanyu from Class 9.
But the 14-year-old girl said she wasn’t worried at all.?
"Now we know it’s up to us to look after our own class."
Li’s class now has a student committee(委員會)of nine students. The committee made some new rules for the class.?
Some students often copy others’ homework. So one rule says that if people let others copy them,they will be punished,not the people who copy. The rule has worked well,and now students do their own homework.
In Class 2,students talk about how they can help their classmate Xiaohua,because he doesn’t learn as quickly as others do. The class committee asks everyone to write him a letter to encourage him.?
"We do best when people don’t push us,"said Zhou Bing,the head of the committee. Head teachers aren’t in the classroom anymore,but they still aren’t far away. In fact,some say they feel closer to the kids than ever. Many kids go to them for advice,and they talk like friends.
"They’re growing up and learning to be responsible(負責(zé)任的),"said Zhang Jiashen,a teacher at the school.

解 析:

2. present at 是出席會議到現(xiàn)場 ,C項不用介詞 take part in 是參加大型活動并起到重要作用。
3. 本題考查include, contain的區(qū)別。這兩個詞都有“包含”的意思,但contain側(cè)重包含的內(nèi)容和成
分或容器里盛有的東西;而include 側(cè)重整體內(nèi)包含個體,前后是同一類東西。
4. 要學(xué)會分享 you must learn to share。
5. mean to do /doing .mean to do 是打算做某事。Mean doing 是意味著。

位置很靈活,可置于句首、句中或句末,一般用逗號和所舉例事物分開;such as只用于列舉部分事
例,且只能放在所舉例事物之前,不用逗號和所舉例事物分開;若列舉全部事例應(yīng)用that is 或
namely,這時that is或namely 與所舉例事物中間加不加逗號均可。
9. a second 表示又一,再一 的意思。
10. 本題的direction是說明書的意思。
11. play a part in 起到某種作用leading 領(lǐng)導(dǎo)。
