6 请教曹老师几个英语用法

  1. 曹老师,这句话特别的长,您能解释一下结构吗,尤其是黑体字:She loved to crawkalong its banks upon the rocks or upon the muddy flats-and watch for the lifting of the huge four-square nets-from the moving yellow flood,andiseeiout of that flood come perhaps again and again an empty net, but sometimes great flashing, twisting silvenbodies of fish.(adapted from A Debt to Dickens by Pearl S. Buck)
  2. Did you go anywhere interesting.或者是I have nowhere to go.一种解释是anywhere,nowhere有名词的特性,所以可以由interesting修饰。但是最近在huddleston所著剑桥英语语法当中找到了一个解释,似乎更加完美,不过似懂非懂,希望曹老师能elaborate(在423页 compound determinatives那一块儿)
  3. 类似于an hour before the meeting ended的结构中,这个an hour为何是修饰before的?相当于shortly,just等?
  4. You know of what I speak这句话结构是?
  5. - Is my wish to become a scientist possible ______   - Yes , your wish is sure ______(填realize的不定式),这个题规范吗?possible后面应该不能加to realize,那to be realized可以吗?下面也填to be realized吗
  6. It is the farthest way from home I've ever been.这句话的I've ever been先行词是谁

1 She love to crawl...and watch... and see..., loved 后接三个不定式作宾语。(tosee的宾语从句out of that flood come perhaps again and again an empty net, but sometimes great flashing, twisting silver bodies of fish为完全倒装句。方位状语out of that flood前置,主语an empty net, but sometimes great flashing, twisting silver bodies of fish后移到句末构成完全倒装句。倒装的原因是主语部分很长,谓语部分相对较短,避免句子头重脚轻。

2 剑桥语法认为anywhere, somewhere是限定词+名词构成的compound determinatives(复合限定词),用作名词词组的中心词,称为determiner-head。总之,既然anywhere可以被形容词interesting修饰,它无疑就是一个复合名词复合不定代词。所以它可以作宾语。有些名词由于历史原因可以作状语如many times。同理复合名词或复合不定代词anywheresomewhere也可以作状语。你可以认为作状语时其实它还是名词或代词,只不过多数词典会把作状语的anywheresomewhere解释为副词。

3 表示度量意义的名词可以修饰形容词、副词、介词或连词,表示程度。如 You are two hours late. two hours表示迟到的程度。同理a hour表示before的程度。整体还是连词before引导的时间状语从句,只不过beforea hour修饰表示程度而已。

4 You know of what I speak. know后接宾语从句of what I speak. = what I speak of. 前者是正式语体形式。

5 possible作表语不可以后接不定式作补足语。所以一句possible后不填任何词。be sure后填to be realized.

6 way应为awayIt is (the) farthest away from home I've ever been. (the) farthest away所以far away的最高级。副词最高级前的the不是冠词,而是副词表示强调,不用the更为常见。that从句是关系分句修饰the farthest away. 你可能质疑定语从句怎么能修饰副词?答案是可以。例如 He ran the fastest that he had ever done. 这个that从句就是修饰副词the fastest的。传统语法把关系词引导的从句称为定语从句,会给人一个误导,让人以为这种从句只能作定语。其实关系词引导的分句不但可以修饰名词,还可以修饰形容词、副词、动词、分句、句子甚至一个段落或整个语篇。只不过最常见的是关系分句修饰名词而已。所以现代语法已经摈弃了定语从句这个术语,改称关系分句。关系分句所做的成分也不限于定语,可以是状语。例如修饰副词最高级的that从句就可以分析为最高级的范围状语。

个人观点,仅供参考。

有一点小疑问,out of that flood come perhaps again and again an empty net, but sometimes great flashing, twisting silver bodies of fish这部分是不是存在宾语后置的现象?这样就实现了 an empty net和great flashing, twisting silver bodies of fish的并列/对比。come这里是动词原形,做宾补,如果是宾语从句的话,可能得用came。
