英语中句子最基本的句式只有五种,其他各种句式都是由这五种基本句式转换而来。五种基本句式如下:
1主语+谓语(不及物动词)
2主语+谓语(及物动词)+宾语
3主语+系动词+表语
4主语+谓语(及物动词)+间接宾语+直接宾语
5主语+谓语(及物动词)+宾语+宾语补足语
此外还有特殊句式如therebe-,强调句,倒装句等。
但是在真实的语言环境中,句子结构远非这么简单。复杂主语、复杂宾语、复杂介词短语,还有各种复杂的定语和状语等修饰成分让句子变得异常复杂。高考阅读理解、完型填空和语法填空经常出现结构复杂的长难句,影响考生对语篇文段的理解。另外,新高考将包括两个写作题:读后续写(概要写作)和应用文写作。在评分标准中把“尽力使用较复杂语法结构”视为是否得高分的标准之一。因此,学会分析长难句显得格外重要。
一个句子之所以成为长难句,就是因为句子各部分成分和结构复杂,具体说就是句中出现了复杂主语、复杂宾语、复杂修饰语(介词短语、非谓语动词、定语和状语)以及各种从句等。下面分类解析:
