<正> 8.have gone 与 be gone 有何不同?A.就结构而言,两者完全不同:"have gone"中的 have 是助动词,gone 是主动词,两者合起来构成完成式的动词;"be gone"中的 be 是动词,gone 是形容词(过去分词可以用作形容词——参阅 p.411)接在 be 动词之后做主词补语(参阅 p.60)。B.就含义而言,有时可以算是相同,有时不同:"have gone"的意思足"已经走了",或"已经到(某地)去了"(参阅 p.583);be gone"的意思是"不见了","已经不在这里或那坐了",相当于"have disappeared",或"be no longer here/there"。C.就使用而言,两者有同有异:只说某人"已经走掉了",并未说明去哪里了,have gone 与 be gone 皆适用,说不出有何区别。如果说某人"已经到某地去了",只可用 have gone,不可用 be gone;如果说某物不见了,通常都只用 be gone。如:

<正> 科学技术、社会生活发展过程中,人们发现新事物,遇到新问题,发展新思想时,便需要新的词汇来表达。二十世纪以来,英语语言中出现了大量新词,这些新词是通过不同的构词法产生的,其中的混合词(blends)令人了耳目一新。混合词是把两个词各取一部分混台在一起而产生的新词。"smog"是大家很熟悉的一个混合词,回想我们初见这个词时,几乎没有人觉得它是个生词,在我们还没来得及搞清它是由哪个词的哪部分混合而来之前,就隐隐约约感到它与"烟"与"雾"有关系。当我们把"smoke"和"fog"分别放在它的左右两边时,愈加觉得"smog"这个词从表义、拼写到发音都妙不可言。从表义角度看,它表现了蒙蒙腾腾的烟雾混合体,还能有什么词会比"烟"和"雾"混合在一起的"smog"更准确更生动呢?从拼写和发音看,"smoke"和"fog"中的字母"o"把两个词结合得天衣无缝、难分难解,读起来像一个很自然的音节。从"smog"可以看出来,英语混合词的特点就是:(1)表现力强,(2)结构巧妙自然。这也正是混合词生命力较强的原因。现将近年来使用频率较高的混台词解析如下。

<正> 缩略法是现代英语中一种主要的构词手段,由这种构词法创造的新词具有一定的生命力,特别是在科技英语和报刊英语中使用更为广泛。这种构词法具有造词简炼、使用简便的特点。缩略法可分为两类:第一类叫缩短词(clipped word),即对原来完整的词进行加工,缩略其中的一部分字母,构成新词;第二类叫首字母缩略词(acronym),即将词组中主要词的第一个字母(首字母)联成一个词。(一)缩短词缩短词根据缩略部位的不同.可分成下列四种:1.缩略词的首部,这种词头的省略叫做 front clipping.例如:phone=telephone(电话),bus=Omnibus(公共汽车),chute=parachute(降落伞),copter=helicopter(直升飞机),quake=earthquake(地震),plane=airoplane(飞机),dozer=bulldozer(推土机),scope=telescope(望远镜);microscope(显微镜)。2.缩略词的尾部,这种词尾的省略叫做back clipping,例如:

<正> 夸张是指有意识地把事实夸大以达到强调或取笑效果的一种修辞法。是有意言过其实,夸大其词,只注意表达深切的情感,而不注意客观事实的记述。夸张的运用范围较广,凡是触觉和嗅觉所能感受到的东西,一般说来都可适当地运用夸张法去修饰。就是无形无色无味的东西,如情感、心态变化等,也可以使用夸张。夸张还具有诙谐、幽默,挖苦,讥讽、褒贬等功用,在结构上,它可能是一个短语,一个句子、一个段落或几个段落,有时甚至可能是整篇故事,一篇文章。下面是夸张的两种形式及用法举例。一、形象夸张:1)我们常常可以听到两个熟人在分别了一段时间后再次

<正> v.+one’s way 是英语中很常用的习语。笔者多年所辑已近百个。其中的动词具开放性,属活用、创新者亦不乏其例。在英文书刊上笔者曾见过这样的句子:The young men guitarred their way along the bank(边走边弹)。We Lincoln-tunnelled our way back home(取道林肯隧道回家)。He rolled back into teaching,dog-paddling his way thmugh thewash of sideways look and gossip(像狗爬式游泳那样在人们的斜视和闲言碎语中艰难地工作)。记得我刚到美国不久,有一次在电影开演前曾与美国朋友谈起中美两国问礼节上的差异。我说:"Here I mustn’t forget toexcuse my way in and thank my way out".他们不但听懂了,而且觉得挺逗。这类习语的基本语义特征是什么?为什么它会如此活跃?

<正> 语中某些动词其后要求一个宾语(Object)和一个宾语补足语(Object Cornplement),才能表达完整的句意。"宾语+宾语补足语"被称做复合宾语(Complex Ob-ject)。复合宾语的两个组成部分在意义上是一种逻辑上的主谓关系。宾语补足语(简称为宾补)说明宾语的属类、性质、状态等。宾补通常跟在宾语之后。含有复合宾语的句子的正常语序是主语+谓语动词+宾语+宾补(SVOC)。如:(1)We think him a good teacher.但我们有时也看到,宾补移到宾语之前,甚至移到句首,于是成了 SVCO 或 CSVO 结构。本文主要探讨这两种结构中宾补前移的原因。一、SVCO 结构在这种结构中,宾补前移主要有以下几种原因。1.为了使宾语与其修饰语相连。当宾语本身带有较长的后置定语或同位语时,把宾补提前,就使宾语与它的修饰语紧挨在一起,句子显得紧凑连贯,同时也可避免产生误解。如:
