英文语法入门

  动词的英语语法基础知识,我们来看一看动词的语法是怎么样的吧。下面是学习啦小编给大家整理的英文语法入门,供大家参阅!

  英文语法入门:第一人称用will还是shall

  A、在前面的章节中,will专用来表示意图:

  I will wait for you.相当于:

  I intend to wait for you.

  我会等你。

  在不存在任何意图的场合用shall,即shall用于不牵涉到主语愿望的动作:

  I shall be 25 next week.

  下星期我就25岁了。

  We shall know the result next week.

  下周我们就会知道结果了。(因为结果将在报纸上公布。)

  Unless the taxi comes soon we shall miss our plane.

  出租汽车要是不快点来,我们就要误飞机了。

  I'm sure I shan't lose my way.

  我肯定不会迷路的。

  I shall see Tom tomorrow.

  明天我会见到汤姆的。(也许我们坐同一列火车上班。)

  现在,shall的以上用法在较正式的英语中仍可见到,但在口语中已不再常见了。相反,通常用will:

  I will be 25 next week.

  下星期我25岁了。

  We'll know the result tomorrow.

  明天我们就会知道结果了。”

  Unless the taxi comes soon we'll miss the plane.

  出租汽车要是不快点来的话,我们就要误飞机了。

  I'm sure I won't lose my way.

  我肯定不会迷路的。

  但是,有时will可能改变句子的意思。如果在 I shall see Tom tomorrow这个句子中用 will代替 shall,就会变成 I will see Tom tomorrow。这个句子可能表示明天我要见汤姆的意图。为避免这种模棱两可的情况就用将来进行时:

  I'll be seeing Tom tomorrow.

  明天我会见汤姆。

  然而,shall在疑问句中仍可使用。

  shall常用在let's后面的附加疑问中:

  Let's go,shall we?

  咱们走,好吗?

  用于建议:

  Shall we take a taxi?

  我们乘出租汽车,好吗?

  用于请求对方下命令或作指示:

  What shall I do with your mail?

  我应该怎么处理您的信件?

  用于推测:

  Where shall we be this time next year?

  明年的这个时候我们会在什么地方?(虽然这里也可以用will。)

  B、shall表示决心

  在前面已经讲到,通常是由will表示决心。但是,人们有时感到为了表示决心应当用另外一个“较重的”、通常不大用的词,因此就用shall:

  (in a speech)We shall fight and we shall win.

  (在演说中)我们决心战斗,我们定会赢得胜利。

  We will fight and we shall win也一样可用。

  有时shall这样用表示许诺,就像第二人称shall所表示的那样:

  You shall have a sweet.

  你会吃到一块糖。相当于:

  I promise you a sweet.

  我答应给你一块糖。

  We shall win这个句子中,说话人在保证能取得胜利。shall在日常会话中可以这样用:

  I shall be there,I promise you.

  我会在那里的,我向你保证。

  但这里will也一样可用,对学生来说用will可减少麻烦。在对于究竟应当用shall还是用will存有疑问的时候要用will。

  英文语法入门:谓语动词常用单数的情况

  1)名词性从句及不定式、动名词作主语时,谓语动词一般用单数形式。

  【例如】

  2)当主语是单数,后面跟着由including, with, together with, along with, like, in addition to, as well as, rather than, but, except, more than, accompanied by等连接的短语时,谓语动词用单数。

  D) were accepted

  neither用作主语或修饰主语时,谓语动词用单数形式。此外,定语从句用过去完成时,主句应用一般过去时,故答案为C。

  4)and所连接的两个单数名词作主语,指同一人、同一件事或同一概念时,其谓语动词用单数。例如:My best friend and adviser has changed his mind again.

  Bread, butter and eggs is typical American Breakfast .

  5)表示时间、距离、重量、体积、金钱的复数名词,作主语时作为整体来看待,谓语动词通常用单数。
