最新英语逻辑思维汇总.docx

1、最新英语逻辑思维汇总笔者一直被一个问题所困扰:“ 从初中到高中,学生积累了一定的词汇和语法知识,经历了 数次考试,学习也可谓勤奋,但为何依旧成效甚微,不该犯的错误却屡见不鲜 ” ?其具体表 现为:词汇方面词义范围不分,词性不分,忽视搭配等;语法上主谓不一致,粘连句,虚词 错误等;语用上忽视语境,中英文一一对应等。长期教学实践中, 笔者终于找到其症结所在 -汉语固有的逻辑思维模式。 汉语作为一种东方语言, 英语作为一种西方语言, 它们之间 所蕴涵的逻辑思维是截然相反的。如对地址的表达,汉语的逻辑思维是从大到小, 如:某省 某市某县某镇;而英语的逻辑思维是从小到大,如:某镇某县某市某省。认真分析的

2、话,我 们会发现:从简单的词汇,到复杂的语句成分构成,再到地道的语用, 两种语言的逻辑思维 完全是南辕北辙!正是如此,从而导致了解题和语用中错误不断。为此,经过探讨和总结, 特将英语中常用的几种逻辑思维模式总结如下,以达抛砖引玉。一 分隔 “ ”分隔是指在两个本应紧紧相连的两个成分或两个分句之间, 插入其它成分从而被隔开的一种 语序变动现象。分隔现象是英语和汉语之间的一个显著区别,因此最容易干扰我们对句意, 文意的理解,打断正常的解题思路。 能起分隔作用的有短语(介词短语,分词短语和不定式 短语等 ,从句和附加成分(插入语,同位语,独立成分等 。常见分隔方式如下:1 主谓分隔 He, howe

7、补足语, 主语补足语,状语等前移到句首,给人一种突然的感觉。如下示例:1 Upon the education of the people of this country the fate of this country depends.(宾语 前移一个国家的命运决定于这个国家全体国民所受的教育。Her appearance all admired, while her personality few praised. 大家都羡慕她长得漂亮, 但很少有人称赞她的个性。Whatever trouble Mr. White had dealing with the case, he would s

8、tick to his own opinion. 无论史密斯先生在解决此事中有多大麻烦,他都将坚持自己的观点。2 A scandal I call it.(宾补前移我把这叫丑闻。3 So angry was he that he couldnt speak a word.(表语前移他如此生气以至于一句话也 说不出来。Raining hard as it is, Im going out for a walk.4 Here are some letters for you to type.(地点状语前移这有几封信要你给打印出来。 From the valley came a tinkling s

10、 brother, studies hard. 汤姆和弟弟一样学习努力。7 Should both of us change into 2 butterflies, we would fly away with the wind together.(条 件状语前移三 反说 “ ”英文中不难发现, 当我们表达某种意义时, 有时不从正面着手, 而是从反面或者侧面入手进 行阐述,笔者将其结构称为 “ 正话反说 ” :1 表达说话人强烈感情的疑问句含明显肯定意义。Who does not know? (= Everybody knows.Why not do some shopping? (= Let

11、s do some shopping.2 “ 否定词 + without” ,双重否定,表肯定意义。There is no smoke without fire. 无风不起浪。I cannot see the picture without thinking of my mother. 每次见到这张相片我都会想起我妈 妈。3 cannot / never too / over / enough 表示 “ 非常 ” 。You cannot be too careful while driving. 开车时,你越小心越好。He cannot see you soon enough. 他想很快见到你

15、 避免重复 “ ”避免用词重复是英语句子的又一大特点, 主要是通过使用代词, 同义词, 近义词和省略等手 段来避免重复的。从词类角度看,重复的多是名词,动词和形容词这些实词,而词义较抽象 的代词,介词,助动词等虚词则不怕重复,可谓 “ 避实就虚 ” 。受汉语表达习惯的影响,中学 生在表达时,常不自觉地加上不必要的修饰语,这点虽符合汉语的表达习惯,但译成英文, 则既累赘, 又失表达的准确。 如 “ 请给我们多提宝贵意见 ” , 译文不必说:Please give us your valuable opinions (valuable多余 。 正确的说法是:Your opinions will b

16、e appreciated. 具体 如下:1 使用代词避免重复Can you mend this chair?
