c.方式副词(短语)
1)概说
1657 大多数方式副词都是形容词后加词尾-ly构成:
quickly carefully traditionally
faithfully luckily internationally
但有些以-ly结尾的词是由名词加词尾构成,是形容词:
queenly soldierly friendly
beggarly worldly heavenly
cowardly scholarly miserly
这样的词不是副词,因此不能说 She walked queenly.而要说She walked in a queenly manner.不能说 He treats me friend-ly.而要说 He treats me in a friendly way.但是以-ly结尾的形容词有时直接用作副词,而不再加-ly,以避免不协调的声音:
We have acted manly(不要说 manlily) in these circumstances.
He died untimely(不要说 untimelily).
The army retreated orderly.
1658 有少数表示方式的副词性短语可以用方式副词代替:
He treats John with kindness(= kindly).
He speaks Japanese with fluency(=fluently).
I can do it with ease(=easily).
They marched off in triumph(= triumphantly).
He has told you in private(=privately).
By good luck(= Luckily) I find the thing I lost.
He sent the letter by mistake (=mistakenly).
He deceived me on purpose(= purposely).
He screamed like a fool(=foolishly).
但多数这类短语不能用副词代替:
He comes of a rich family.
He failed because of his negligence.
It is made by John.
He was killed with a stone.
It is made of iron.
He is starved to death.
We wished for peace.
He went out in spite of the rain.
Plants will die without water.
1659 表示方式的短语相当大一批是由介词引起的,如1658中所给的例子。另一大批为地点副词,亦称副词性小品词,常可用在动词成语中,表示方式而不是表示地点。有些地点副词跟在不及物动词后(参阅1346)。
He drew up(=stopped) before a store.
Hold on(= Wait) a second, please.
The machine broke down(=didn't work properly).
Things work out(=develop) badly.
He didn't show up(= appear).
The couple split up(=ended their relationship) just an hour after their wedding.
He turned in(= went to bed) at eleven.
Speak up(=speak in a loud voice).
有些则跟在及物动词后面:
We put on(=presented) a show.
He turned down(=refused) my application.
Don't hold up(=delay) the traffic.
You made up(=invented) the story.
I'll take on(=undertake) the task.
We have to put off(=postpone) the trip.#p#副标题#e#
还有一些跟在不及物动词后,后面再跟一个介词:
She came around to(=agreed to) my views.
She went in for(=got interested in)photography.
I have to fall back upon(= depend upon) his support.
We stand up for(= support) his policy.

3.副词(短语)的位置
a.有关7类副词(短语)位置的特别规律
1665 当副词(短语)修饰动词以外的其他词时,它的位置很容易确定。但在修饰动词时,其位置却不易确定,它可以放在主语前面、助动词前面、主要动词前面、及物动词宾语的前面、补语前面、动词后面、宾语后面或补语后面。在一个特定的句子中,只有一个或两个这类位置,从语法或修辞角度上考虑是最好的。例如在
—John—will—lend—me—his bicycle—. 中,tomorrow只适宜放在一二个位置上,而不是很多位置上。
下面所给“规律”只是一些建议,因为特定的副词(短语)有特殊的习惯用法,宜于放在某个特定的位置,有些还会随着作者的特殊意图有特殊的位置。
1666 为了决定副词(短语)的位置,我们把它们分作7类,而不是5类:
1)地点副词(短语):there,forward,ashore;in Japan,at the station,on high
2)时间副词(短语):yesterday,ago,yet;on Sunday,this evening,for five days,from 1950 till 1960,since last Januray
3)频度副词(短语):often,rarely;from time to time
4)肯定副词(短语):surely, definitely,probably;no doubt
5)程度副词(短语):greatly,partially;beyond measure,to some degree
6)方式副词(短语):slowly,sadly;at a low price,in jest
7)疑问副词(短语): where?why?how?when?for what reason?in which room?
图解:

不管tomorrow在句中位置如何,它在图解中的位置不变。
1)地点副词(短语)
1667 地点副词(短语)可以:
a)放在主语前面。能用在这个位置的副词很少,但可用在这个位置的副词短语却很多:
Outside,the wind is blowing. Here I stop.Upstairs they are gambling.
In Japan everybody works hard.From behind a voice said,“good morning”.To the west lay a large villa.
Into the city I've never driven this car.(这是错句,否定谓语不能放在表示方向的状语后面,而应放在前面,应当说:I've never driven this car into the city.)
为了强调可以放在主语前面的副词有:off,up,away,over, down,out, in,back,round, on, above,along,about, below,inside,outside
Off went John. Off John went.Off he(代词) went.(但不可说Off went he.)
Down fell the vase. Away he ran.Round and round flew the bird.
Up you jump! In you go!
Up with the King!Down with Fascism!Off with his head!Away with you!
可以放在不及物动词及主语前面。用在这个位置的副词为there,here,还有一些表示地点的短语,后面跟有以下不及物动词:be,come, go,follow,stand,sit,lie,remain,live, enter, appear, happen, arise, take place,然后跟有一个可能较长的表示人或物的主语:

副词前若有how与它构成感叹句,则副词必须放在主语前面:

下面这些副词称为连接副词,通常放在主语前,可以看作一种并列连词:besides, also, then, likewise, moreover, again,in addition,nap,what is more;only,still,all the same,however,nevertheless,and yet,howbeit,con versely,on the contrary,on the other hand;therefore, hence,so,thus,consequently,accordingly,then,in consequence,as a result;otherwise, else(可参阅 1668a)):

可用在主要动词前或助动词后,特别是认为这个主要动词比副词(短语)更重要,或是后面跟有一个较长的修饰语或宾语时。这种副词很多,如 bravely,quietly,凡所有以-ly结尾的副词都可以这样用,这种短语也很多:

b.关于副词(短语)位置的19条一般规则
1674 1)除了on,away,up,down这样的地点副词,没有其他副词(短语)可以放在及物动词及其宾语之间。下面例句中的副词(短语)都放在错误位置,应当放到宾语后面去:
He speaks fluently English.He likes very much my suggestion.He understands very clearly your viewpoint.He reviews again and again his lessons.
但如果a)宾语比副词(短语)长得多,b)宾语被认为比较重要,或c)宾语是一个从句,则这个副词(短语)必须放宾语、动词或主语的前面:
a) He brought to school so many books,pictures, magazines etc.I copied from him the lecture notes concerning the structure of the atom. Please return before Sunday all the books you have borrowed from the library.He put into execution the plan he made years ago.She took to heart what I had told him.(放在宾语前,主要动词后面)

He will probably come tomorrow.
I very well know the value of his assistance.
He little understands what he himself says.
He seldom goes to the movies.
John has sometimes written to Mary.

1676 3)如果动词为be,则副词(短语)通常都放在be和补语之间:
He is,no doubt,a good doctor.
The amount is,in all probability,the same as before.
He is,to some extent(or in a way), a famous musician.
He is rarely sick.
He is always late.#p#副标题#e#
副词(短语)也可用在被动结构中,位置在be和过去分词之间:
It will be altogether forgotten.The workers were fully employed.It is earnestly hoped that… The war is need- lessly prolonged.
1677 4)如果有几类副词(短语)一起用,它们的顺序可安排如下:
肯定 地点 方式 频度 时间
He probably went to Japan by air twice in 1962.
We met there unexpectedly last Monday.
He's certainly gone abroad with his wife recently.
I studied in London under Mr.A for a year.
1678 5)如果有两个时间状语,表示较小单位时间的状语宜放在较大单位时间的前面:
I will meet you at three o'clock tomorrow.I saw the film on Tuesday evening last week.
如果较大单位时间比较重要,或较小单位时间是后来想起的,则其顺序也可以颠倒:
I arrived yesterday afternoon,about five o'clock.She and I got married in 1968,in the month of July.
1679 6)有两个地点状语时,较小的单位一般放在前面,但有时也不如此,其顺序往往根据文体或句子平衡的需要来安排:
He lived at a small village in a northern state.We spent the holidays at a cottage in the mountains.We spent the holidays in the mountains,at a cottage we rented from a friend.
1680 7)最好不要把所有的状语放在一个地方:
I returned “to the village”“ by train”“before dark”“one day”.(不好)
“One day before dark” I returned “to the village”“ by train.”(较好)
1681 8)如果把几个状语放在一起,通常宜于把最短的放在前面,把最长的放在最后:
He arrived“silently”“after all his companions”.He slept “soundly”“on a very large bed”.He sat“down”“by mistake”“on the back of a sleeping crocodile”.
“Tomorrow” “at five” “when it begins to dawn”, I shall go to a distant city. I shall stay “here”“for three days ” “while the festival is going on”.“Yesterday”“just before breakfast”“when I was writing a letter”, Mr.A called at my house.(先是单词,然后是短语,最后是从句。)
1682 9)像refer to,insist on, beware of;play hell with,take care of,lay stress on;live up to,put up with, look down on;line up,get along,fool about,carry on, give forth,gamble away这样的成语最好不要分开:
He has always firmly and passionately believed in manners.(比 believed firmly and passionately in manners.好)
He depends upon his uncle for his education.(比depends for his education upon his uncle好)
she looks patiently after the baby.(中间有时可插入短的状语)
1683 10)包含 this,that, like, such, so, thus, the这类词的状语,和其他与前面句子或段落有关的状语,最好放在主语前面:
Just at that moment,a man came.At such a sight,they all shuddered.In this manner he died.So they said.So I do.So do I.Thus they started the rebellion.Here he stopped.After the war, many were starved.In like manner they were killed.From what has been said,this theory is very easy to understand.
1684 11)放在动词前的状语带有装饰性,有时可以省掉,而放在动词后面的状语比较强调,更为重要:
They suddeny attacked us.They attacked us suddenly.
We quietly went away.We went away quietly.
I immediately corrected it.I corrected it immediately.
I often go to the pictures.I go to the pictures very often.
1685 12)一个状语,为了强调而加以重复时,必须放在句子前面:
She decides to go tomorrow,and tomorrow she must go.
She cried sorrowfully,and sorrowfully everyone sighed.
John learned Chinese with difficulty,and with difficulty he had learned everything.
(Cf.He is as happy as happy(形容词)can be.If moth- er thinks I must have a wife,wife(名词)I must have.)
1686 13)最好不要把状语放在两个动词之间,以免意思含糊不清。下面句子都不妥当,需要改正。例如在第一个句子中,如果immediately修饰第一个动词,那它应当放在wrote的前面,反之,如果它修饰第二个动词,它就应当放在 tell the news后面:
I wrote immediately to tell him the news.
I have telephoned to him three times to come.(最好说 I have three times telephoned to him to come.或是说 I have telephoned to him to come three times.)
To inform him immediately I rang him up.(在 immediately之后应加一逗号)
下面例句是正确的:
My son now and then asked(×) to follow me to the cinema.He earnestly hoped(×) to see me.John kindly suggested(×) taking care of my little girl.She candidly admitted(×) having gone out with her boyfriend.(“×”表示状语不宜放的位置。)
1687 14)如果主要动词前有两个助动词,修饰整个句子的副词(特别是频度及肯定副词)要放在两个助动词之间,而修饰主要动词的副词(特别是方式副词)应放在这个动词的前面:
a) Tigers have often been discovered in this area.
You can never have seen such a beautiful place.
He will probably be made President of the Company.
He has surely been punished for his offence.
He may,unfortunately,be killed by robbers.
b) This decision will be publicly announced.
I would have carefully done it,if it had been useful.
He must have seriously considered this matter.
1688 15)要使副词(短语)尽可能靠近它修饰的动词:
We went to deserted village almost ten miles away from the capital yesterday.(不好)
We went yesterday to…capital.(较好)
Yesterday a guest who had come from a distant country called on me.(不好)
A guest…me yesterday.(较好)
Immediately,he told me to leave his house.(不好)
He told me to leave his house immediately.(较好)
1689 16)某些副词,如 only, alone, also, too, even,可能只与某个词有关,应尽量使之靠近这个词:
Only John(n.)(Nobody else) saw Mary there two days ago.
John only saw(v.)Mary(did not talk with her) there two days ago.
John saw only Mary(n.)( not anybody else) there two days ago.
John saw Mary only there(adv.)(not in any other place) two days ago.
John saw Mary there only two days ago(adv-phrase) (not more than two days ago).
He alone( Nobody else) loves her.
He loved her alone( nobody else).
He loves her for her simplicity alone(not for any other reason).
Even John(not only his elder brothers and sisters) writes articles for the newspaper.

你知道leave除了作"离开"解以外的意思,还有什么意思吗?接下来读文网小编为你介绍leave的用法,以供参考。
1. leave (离开;退出)。
通常用于下列短语中: leave some place (离开某地), leave for some place (离开到某地), leave school (退学)。注意: school leaver 指“毕业生”。如:

我祖父已经离开去北京了。
2. leave (遗留;遗忘)。通常用于如下结构中: leave sth / sb at home (把某物遗忘在家;把某人留在家), leave sth / sb behind (留下;遗落)。如:

我又一次把英语书遗落在家里。
3. leave (听任其在某处;使保持某状态)。通常用于一些复合结构中,如:“ leave+ 宾语+形容词 / 分词 / 不定式等”以及短语 leave … alone (不理会;不管)。如:
The teacher left little Tom standing all the time.
老师让小汤姆一直站着。
4. leave (留下;剩下)。如:

他惟一的亲人死了,什么也没给他留下。
注意:分词 left 作定语时,要放在所修饰的词后面,如果要用前置定语,则可以使用 remaining .如:

neither是一个词性丰富的单词,它的用法也相对比较多,学好这个单词将对英语学习非常有帮助。接下来就让读文网小编为你介绍neither这个单词。
1. neither用作形容词,表示“(两者)都不”,置于单数名词之前。
Neither article is made in Beijing. 这两种物品都不是北京制造的。
提醒注意:在口语中以not... either...替换neither使用的情形也很多。例如:
They bought neither house. = They didn’t buy either house. 两间房子他们都没买。
2. neither用作代词,表示“两者都不,双方均不”。例如:
He answered neither of the letters. 他两封信都没回。
此时,与neither用法较为接近的词是none,但none的含义略有不同,none表示“(三者以上)所有的……都不”。例如:
None of us are perfect. 人无完人。
提醒注意:neither作主语时,通常被视为单数,但从意义上讲也可视为复数。
Neither of the cars was / were damaged. 两部车都没有受损。
3. neither用作连词,常用短语为neither...nor...,表示“既不……也不……”。例如:
Neither he nor I am well educated. 他和我都没受过良好教育。
提醒注意:
①neither和nor后面接同一词性的单词或短语。
②neither...nor...结构用作主语时,谓语动词必须与nor后面的名词或代词在人称及数上保持一致,即所谓的就近原则。
③在表示“既……也……”,即“两者都……”时,常用短语both...and...;表示“或者……或者……”(即二者选一)时,常用短语either...or...。
4. neither用作副词,作“也不”解释,放在句首,表示前面否定的内容也适用于另一个人或物,句子须采用部分倒装。此时也可用nor替换neither使用。
—I don’t like this dress. 我不喜欢这件连衣裙。
—Neither / Nor do I. 我也不喜欢。
提醒注意:neither之后的主语要置于助动词或系动词之后。

百分数在英语中用per cent(美作percent)表示,在句子中可作多种成分。接下来读文网小编将为你介绍百分数在英语中的运用。
一、必须知道的两个名词
Percent的中文意思是:百分之…,如果你怕麻烦,还可以简化成%,这个单词还可以分开来写成:per cent,例如:16%的男生有心理问题。
1. 16% of the boys have mental problems.
2. 16 percent of the boys have mental problems.
3. 16 per cent of the boys have mental problems.
Percent of…后面的名词直接决定着后面谓语动词的单复数形式。例如:
16 percent of the boys are overweight.
Over 60 percent of the earth surface is covered with water.
但是,percentage中文是:百分率,百分比。如果用它表达上面的例句,可以说成:
The percentage of the boys who have mental problems is 16 per cent.
我们汉语中常说的百分点可以被表达成:percentage points,例如:
Interest rate fell by six percentage points.
利率下降了六个百分点。
常见的词组有:a high/low/small percentage of,例如:
A high percentage of married women have part-time jobs.
已婚妇女兼职的比例非常高。
二、必须知道的两个动词
在表达“占一定数量或比例”时,我们使用频率最高的动词有:
Afro-Americans account for 12% of the US population.
Afro-Americans make up 12% of the US population.
非裔美国人占美国人口的百分之十二。
Account for还有另外一个常用用法,相当于动词explain。请看例句:
Recent pressure at work may account for his strange behavior.
他行为怪异的原因可能是工作压力大。
相比之下,make up的意思非常丰富,用法更多。例如:
They made him up as an old man for the last act of the play.
在最后一幕中,他们把她装扮成一个老头。
When you're the boss you can make up your own rules.
当你是老板时,你可以制定你自己的规矩。
I don't eat breakfast but I make up for it at lunch.
通常我不吃早饭,到中饭的时候在弥补。
三、如何表达“比例高低”
上面作文提示中,就有这样的一句:
大约12%的学生有情绪问题,其中,女生的比例比较高。
那么,如何表达比例的高低呢?最简单的表达就是:
Most of the students with emotional problems are girls.
在有情绪问题的学生中,女生占绝大多数。
再高级的一点的表达,可以使用短语the majority of或者a minority of,例如:
The majority of the students with emotional problems are girls.
在有情绪问题的学生中,女生占绝大多数。
Only a minority of people support these new laws.
只有少数的人支持这些新法律。
此外,还有介词短语in the majority和in a/the majority,上面的两句句话可以说成:
Among the students with emotional problems, girls are in the majority.
在有情绪问题的学生中,女生占绝大多数。
People who support these new laws are in a minority.
只有少数的人支持这些新法律。
四、百分比的其他表达
当出现多个百分比时,可以对数字进行一些处理和转换,避免表达重复,例如:
第一组:百分之二十五的新生来自农村。
25 percent of the new students come from the countryside.
A quarter of the new students come from the countryside.
第二组:在受访的人群中,百分之五十一的人支持这个运动。
51% of people surveyed are in favor of the campaign.
Over half of people surveyed are in favor of the campaign.
第三组:这个班级有百分之六十七的学生患了近视眼。
67 percent of the students in the class are short-sighted.
About two-thirds of the students in the class are short-sighted.
第四组:70%的老师赞成这个计划,17%的人反对,13%的人不确定。
70% of the teachers support the plan. 17% of them are against it. 13% are not sure.
70% of the teachers support the plan. 17% of them are against it. The rest are unsure.
五、三个重要的定语
在百分比之后,常要加上一些限定词,例如:
16% of the students surveyed suffer from mental problems.
在接受的学生当中,有16%的学生有心理问题。
Boys make up 53% of the students with mental problems.
在有心理问题的学生当中,男生占53%。
很多时候,我们也可以使用定语从句或分词结构,例如上面的句子也可以写成:
Boys make up 53% of the students who suffer from mental problems.
Boys make up 53% of the students suffering from mental problems.
六、其他的表达技巧
首先,看一个例句:
16.2% of the boys have mental problems. 11.4% of the girls have mental problems.
16.2%的男生有心理健康问题,11.4%的女生有心理健康问题。
这是男女学生之间的对比,我们可以使用while把这个两句话合二为一:
16.2% of the boys have mental problems while 11.4% of the girls have mental problems.
再认真看一下,这两句话的谓语和宾语都一样,只有主语不同,还可以简化为:
16.2% of the boys and 11.4% of the girls have mental problems.
