In l975 he returned to Dublin, the capital of the Irish Republic, where he found his own pop group.1975年他回到了爱尔兰共和国的首都——都柏林,组织了他自己的流行歌唱队。
句中的 the capital of the Irish Republic是Dublin的同位语,而where he found his own pop group是宾语从句;修饰它的先行词Dublin.一般情况下,定语从句中常直接置于被修饰的先行词之后。少数情况定语从句没有位于被修饰的先行词之后,而是被句子中的其他成分所分隔,这种定语从句在英英语法中称为分隔式定语从句。
He rang up all his friends in the pop world; including the most famous pop stars.他打电话给流行歌坛的所有朋友们,包括最有名气的流行歌星。
1)句中的world作“……界”解,表示某一社会阶层的人,如:
the sports world(体育界),the art world(艺术界),the racing world(赛马界),the world of science(科学界)等。
2)including是动词include(包括)的-ing形式,作定语。这个-ing短语相当于一个非限制性定语从句(which includes the most famous pop stars.)例如:
She is fond of music, including folk songs, pop songs and American country music.他喜欢音乐,包括民歌、流行歌曲和美国乡村音乐。
Our group has six people, including three women. 我们小组有六个人,包括三个女的。
3)注意把including的位置变化后的特殊表达形式,如上面的句子;Our group has six people, three women included.这相当于独立主句结构,(there women being included)主要形式以后再深入学习。
By the end of the year, the total money collected had come to over 92 million dollars, all of which were went to Africa.到年底为止筹集到的全部款项达9200多万美元,所有的这些钱都送到非洲。
(l)the total money collected中的collected是过去分词作后置定语。它相当于定语从句the total money that has been collected.过去分词作后置定语通常表示被动意义,即过去分词所修饰的名词是分词所表动作的承受者,本例的money就是collected所表动作的承受者。
(2)come to意为“达到,总计”。它的本意是“来到”,但常用来表示达到某个数量,如:
His total income comes to more than three thousand yuan a month.他的总收入达到每个月三千多元。
(3)“…,all of which were sent to Africa.”是由“不定代词+介词+关系代词”引导的非限制性定语从句,相当于:All of the 92 million dollars were sent to Africa.如:
We visited some places in France, all of which are world famous. 我们在法国参观了一些地方,所有这些地方都是举世闻名的。
When I was a child, I learned lots of poems, most of which I can recite even小时候我学过许多诗,其中大部分即使到今天我都能背诵出来。
词语辨析
辨析 manage to do, try to do
两者都有“设法”,“试图”的意思,用法也相似,都接动词不定式。但意思稍有区别。
manage意思是“设法成功地办好了某事”,即事情有了结果或者会有结果。
try to do的意思是“努力去做某事”,但不一定会成功。而且去做的事情,不一定都是困难的。试比较:
He tried to stop a car but he failed.他设法要拦一辆车,但没拦住。
He managed to stop a car and got onto it他设法拦了一辆车,并上了车。
辨析late, lately, later, latest
late形容词或副词,意为“迟到,晚”;
lately副词,指“近来”(recently;
later副词,“后来,较晚的时候”;
latest形容词,“最新的”。例如:
He usually gets up late on Sundays.星期天他常起得迟。
What have you been doing lately? 你最近忙些什么?
Here is the latest magazine you want.这就是你要的最新的杂志。
See you later.再见
辨析for/by/of/to oneself

2)by oneself:alone独自,单独地。如:

3)of oneself自动地,自发的,如:

I recognized him though we parted(分开)for years. 尽管我们分开多年了,我还是认出了他。
辨析persuade, advise:
persuade一词常指已说服某人干……,
advise一词则是尝试劝说某人干……,结果不一定如愿。例如:

辨析provide,supply
相同点:这组及物动词都可作“供给,提供”解,其用法异同是:
provide指有远见,为应付意外、紧急情况等作好充分准备而“供给,提供”。
supply表示比较固定、经常性地“提供;供给”,强调替代或补充所需物品,如:
He also persuaded other people to provide money or to give help.他也劝服别人提供钱或给予帮助。
These cars will be supplied to people all over the country.这些汽车将供应给全国各地的人们。
注意:provide不如supply常用,前者可跟双宾语,后者无此用法,如:
Tom provided her a pretty hat.汤姆给她准备了一项漂亮的帽子。
可说provided/supply sth. to sh.也可说provid/supply sb. with sth. ),如:
The bank provided/supplied him with a loan $100,000银行为他提供了10万美元的贷款。
