Too从句末移至句中的原因
苏三读后深受鼓舞,开始相信她最终也会成为一个有用的人生活下去。
译文:
Greatly inspired, Susan began to feel that she, too, would finally be able to lead a useful life.
为何不是:
Greatly inspired, Susan began to feel that she would finally be able to lead a useful life too.
Greatly inspire, Susan began to feel that she would finally also be able to lead a useful life.
请教老师,too的位置的不同,说明了什么?此句译文可否用also?谢谢老师。
先看一个例句:
I went to the cinema on Sunday too. 这句话可能有三种意思:
1 别人星期天看电影了,我也在星期天看电影了。重读I。
2 我星期天作了其它事情,也看了电影。重读went to the cinema。
3 我其它时间看了电影,星期天也看了电影。重读 on Sunday。
当too位于句末时,too添加的信息可能是前面的任何一个:主语、谓语或状语。口语中需要重读这个新信息。
too 通常位于句末。当主语为添加信息时,在正式语体或文学语体,too可以插入主语和谓语之间。例如:
I, too, will try a seventh time.
also通常为中位状语,偶尔可以位于句首。中位状语通常位于主语和谓语之间,如果谓语有操作词,则位于操作词之后。
Greatly inspired, Susan began to feel that she would also finally be able to lead a useful life.
由于本句已经有finally占据了中位状语位置,再加also则不如插入too读起来自然。

also, too, either 与 as well 的用法区别
这四个词均可表示“也”,其区别如下:
(1)too 和 as well 多用于口语中,语气较轻,通常用于肯定句或疑问句,一般不用于否定句,且通常放在句末。
I like you too (as well).
我也喜欢你。
Are they coming too (as well)?
他们也来吗?
(2)too 有时也紧跟在主语后(注: as well 不这样用),此用法较正式。
I, too, know where he lives.
我也知道他住在什么地方。
注意:在 Me too, You too这类简略答语中,通常不用 as well或also。
A:I’m tired. 我累了。
B:Me too. 我也是(from www.zkenglish.com)。
(3)also 比 too 和 as well 正式,一般也不用于否定句,它在句中的位置通常是紧靠动词,即放在行为动词之前,特殊动词之后。有时为了强调也放在句末(但不常见)。
He also came. / He came also.
他也来了。
She is young and beautiful,and also rich.
她年轻漂亮,而且有钱。
说明:also 有时用于句首(其后通常有逗号),相当于连词 and。
Also, his mother was dead. 再说,他母亲又过世了。
(4)either(也)通常只用于否定句,且要放在句末。
I don’t know, either. 我也不知道。
He hasn’t finished it, either. 他也还没有做完。
注意:有时在肯定句之后跟一个否定句,可能用 too,also。
He came, but she didn’t also came.
他来了,但她没有也一起来。
He went to Washington, but not to New York too.
他去了华盛顿,但并不是也去了纽约。
He didn’t buy a computer, and she didn’t either.
他没买电脑,她也没买。
He bought a computer, but she didn’t too.
他买了台电脑,但她没有也买台电脑.
