——句型进阶
一、句型升级的重要性
l 应对考试评分标准
高考英语作文的评分标准(如全国卷)明确要求:词汇和语法结构的丰富性、语言的准确性和上下文的连贯性。
使用简单句堆砌的文章,即使没有错误,也很难在“丰富性”这一项上得到高分。句型升级是直接向阅卷老师展示你语言能力的信号。
l 提升表达效率和逻辑性
简单句就像散落的珍珠,而升级后的复合句、非谓语动词等就像是串起珍珠的线。它们能更清晰、更紧凑地表达句子间的逻辑关系(如因果、转折、条件、递进等),使文章条理分明,逻辑严谨。
l 增加文章的可读性和丰富性
多样化的句型能使文章节奏起伏,避免单调乏味,读起来更地道、更优美。这体现了写作者的思维成熟度和语言驾驭能力,也就是所谓的“文采”。
二、句型升级的方法
句型升级是一个从“简单”到“复杂”,从“单一”到“多样”的过程。遵循以下步骤,循序渐进地练习。具体步骤如下图:
第一步:加并列
简单句中可以采用并列连词(FANBOYS)连接句子成分或者连接连个及以上的简单句(变为并列句),这样不仅可以优化逻辑关系、平衡表达结构,同时也可以丰富句式层次。如:
第一句:
优化前:Tom is a student.
优化后:Tom is a hard-working, responsible and optimistic student.
第二句:
优化前:Last weekend, we went to the community park.
优化后:Last weekend, we went to the community park, cleaned up the litter and planted 20 young trees.
第三句:
优化前:Reading English novels can improve our vocabulary.
优化后:Reading English novels can improve our vocabulary, enhance our reading skills and broaden our horizons.
第四句:
优化前:I used to be afraid of speaking English in public.
优化后:I used to be afraid of speaking English in public, but I kept practicing with my classmates and now I feel much more confident.
第五句:
优化前:We should strengthen environmental education in schools to raise students’ awareness of protecting nature.
优化后:We should strengthen environmental education in schools to raise students’ awareness of protecting nature, and we should encourage people to use reusable bags instead of plastic ones; besides, we can organize voluntary activities to plant more trees in communities.
第二步:加修饰成分
英语中的修饰成分,包括定语、状语、同位语和插入语,是从“平淡无奇”迈向“高分佳作”的关键一步。这直接体现了你的语言驾驭能力和思维深度,是阅卷老师重点关注的得分点。它们可以增加信息量,使内容充实:简单句只能传递主干信息,而修饰成分可以加入时间、地点、原因、方式、背景等细节,让句子瞬间“丰满”起来。它们可以提升句子复杂度,展现语言功底:高考英语评分标准中明确要求“语法结构的丰富性”。大量使用简单句是低分的标志,而交替使用不同修饰成分能有效提升句子的层次感和复杂度。它们可以使表达精确、生动、有画面感:修饰成分就像绘画中的细节和色彩,能让抽象的概念变得具体,让平淡的叙述变得栩栩如生。它们也可以优化文章节奏,突出逻辑重点:通过调整修饰成分的位置,你可以控制句子的节奏,强调你想要突出的内容,使行文更流畅,逻辑更清晰。
(一)定语
定语用来修饰名词或代词,分为前置定语(放在被修饰词前)和后置定语(放在被修饰词后)。
1. 前置定语(通常为形容词、名词、分词等)
优化前:We live in a world.
优化后: We live in a complex and interconnected world.
2. 后置定语(介词短语、分词短语、不定式、定语从句等) 这是提升句子档次的关键!
优化前: The challenges are huge.
优化后:The challenges facing our generation are huge.(现在分词短语做后置定语)
优化后:The challenges caused by environmental pollution require immediate action.(过去分词短语做后置定语)
(二)状语
状语修饰动词、形容词、副词或整个句子,表示时间、地点、原因、方式等,位置非常灵活。
1. 句首状语(多用介词短语、分词短语、副词)
优化前: We should take effective measures to protect wildlife.
优化后:To protect our planet, we should take effective measures to protect wildlife.
2. 句中/句尾状语
优化前:We learn and grow.
优化后: We learn and grow by stepping out of our comfort zone.
(三)同位语
同位语对一个名词或代词进行解释或说明,指的是同一事物。
优化前:Mr. Li is our head teacher. He is a man of great patience.
优化后:Mr. Li, our head teacher, is a man of great patience.
(四)插入语
插入语是插入句子中的成分,表示态度、评价或补充说明,常用逗号隔开。
优化前:Online learning is convenient and efficient.
优化后:Online learning, in my opinion, is convenient and efficient.
优化前:This method is the most practical one.
优化后: This method, I believe, is the most practical one.
第三步:加引导词
引导词是用于连接各类从句的词,和主句放一起,构成主从复合句。它们可以丰富句型结构、体现逻辑性、提升表达准确性和信息密度。如:
优化前:To protect the environment is important.
优化后:What we need to do now is to protect the environment. (主语从句)
优化前: I
know this. We should be honest.
优化后: I
know that we should always be honest. (宾语从句)
优化前:That is
my suggestion. We should start early.
优化后:My
suggestion is that we (should) start early.
(表语从句)
优化前: I
have a dream. It is world peace.
优化后: I
have a dream that there will be world peace one day. (同位语从句)
优化前:The man is my
teacher. He is giving a speech.
优化后:The man who is giving a speech is my
teacher. (定语从句)
优化前:The problem was very difficult. Nobody could solve it.
优化后:The problem was so difficult that nobody could solve it. (状语从句)
第四步:用非谓语
非谓语动词包括to do, doing, done几种形式,写句子时用上非谓语动词,可以简化句子,提升简洁性、丰富句式,增强表现力、体现逻辑关系。如:
优化前: It is important. We should protect our environment.
优化后:To protect our environment is important. (to do做主语)
优化前:I hope that I can see you again.
优化后: I hope to see you again. (to do做宾语)
优化前: I got up early because I wanted to catch the first bus.
优化后: I got up early to catch the first bus. (to do做状语)
优化前:I have a lot of work. I must do it.
优化后: I have a lot of work to do. (to do做定语)
优化前:It is fun to read books. / It is fun when we read books.
优化后:Reading books is fun. (doing做主语)
优化前:I am looking forward to it. I see you again.
优化后:I am looking forward to seeing you again.(doing做宾语)
优化前:The man is my uncle. The man is standing under the tree.
优化后:The man standing under the tree is my uncle. (doing做定语)
优化前:The book is very popular. The book was written by Lu Xun.
优化后:The book written by Lu Xun is very popular. (done做定语)
优化前:When he saw the teacher, he immediately stood up.
优化后:Seeing the teacher, he immediately stood up. (doing做状语)
优化前:Because he was deeply moved by the movie, he couldn't help crying.
优化后:Deeply moved by the movie, he couldn't help crying. (done做状语)
第五步:用特殊句型
在高考英语写作中,特殊句型是 “终极核武器” 级别的存在。它们的作用不是“锦上添花”,而是 “一锤定音”——瞬间向阅卷老师展示你远超同龄人的语言驾驭能力和语法功底,是冲击最高分数档(22-25分)的绝对保障。它主要包括强调句和倒装句。如:
优化前: I met my head teacher in the library yesterday.
优化后:It was my head teacher that I met in the library yesterday. (强调宾语)
优化前: We can not only achieve our dreams but also contribute to society.
优化后: Not only can we achieve our dreams, but we can also contribute to society. (倒装句)
