我們將不定期地向我們的用戶免費提供我們最新的英語教學的教研資料, 一般一個月兩次。這些資料大多是數十年來的經驗總結或答疑。由於不是通常的文法書所教授的內容, 故而內容不固定, 亦不成章節, 望同學們理解。
很多初學者都已發現, 英語學到一定程度, 介系詞便成了進一步提高英語水平的嚴重障礙。故此, 在我們免費學習資料裡, 介系詞的用法可能會佔較大的篇幅。下面是有關介系詞的學習資料的幾個例子:
初級免費學習資料英文樣本 請按下列大意先造幾個句子：某某學生末考取得好成績, 老師、兄弟姊妹及其父母都很高興, 然後再閱讀以下示例。
點擊此處閱讀示例:
Eric, the most promising child in the family, is a very good student, but his English is not as strong as his other subjects, even though he works hard at it. One day—several weeks before the end of the semester—he came across Grandma's Grammar self-study courses and decided to try it. As a result, he received a very good mark on his English final. His teacher was surprised at his quick progress; Eric himself was very excited about it too. His siblings were very happy for him, and his father, a strict parent who places a great deal of hope in this boy, now began to feel satisfied with him to some extent.
以上段落所提供了幾個表達高興的心情句子結構, 加之一些其它詞彙, 如: giddy, elated, pleased, delighted, gleeful, cheerful, content, hopeful, gratified 可以幫助應付初級讀物裡的帶有介系詞的表達高興的句子。如能舉一反三, 加之其它心情類詞彙, 效果更佳。
初中級免費學習資料英文樣本 由於初中級及中級的同學已有一定的寫作水平, 且形成了自己的寫作風格。所以, 劉姥姥就不再給這個程度以上的同學提供短文形式的例子, 僅提供如下的獨立例句。海闊憑魚躍 天高任鳥飛。希望有興趣的同學們充分發揮自己的想像力, 寫出好文來。
example 1: Susan was overjoyed at the news of her promotion, and her brother felt ecstatic at being accepted into his dream university. What a great day for the family! 譯文 例1: Susan 得知自己升職的消息後 喜出望外, 而她的弟弟為被其夢想的大學錄取而欣喜若狂。對於一家人來說, 這是多麼美好的一天啊！
example 2: Jackie felt exhilarated at receiving the promotion, and her class was overjoyed about winning the championship at the city competition. They all felt inspired and on fire after this great event. 譯文 例2: Jackie為獲得晉升而感到興奮, 而她的班級則為在城市比賽中獲得冠軍而欣喜萬分。在這次盛大活動之後, 他們都感受到鼓舞並充滿熱情。
example 3: Bobby and Kate were delighted with their successful wedding and were thrilled for their upcoming honeymoon abroad. 譯文 例3: Bobby 和 Kate 對他們圓滿的婚禮滿心歡喜, 並對他們的即將到來的出國度蜜月興奮不已。
example 4: Karol was full of joy at the birth of her first child and was very appreciative for all the support she received from her family. 譯文 例4: Karol 對第一個孩子的出生充滿了喜悅, 並且非常感激家人給予她的的支持。
儘管 about、for、at、with 和 of 的基本意義完全不同, 但在以上幾個例子裡的作用卻是一樣的——都是用來表示情感的原因, 不過, 雖然作用相同, 但在意義上還是有細微差別的, 關於這一點, 我們將會在以後的階段總結裡 統一解釋。
中級免費學習資料英文樣本 example 5: Jill's parents were thrilled about her first job, sharing her enthusiasm for the new opportunity and her hopefulness about the future. 譯文 例5: Jill 的父母對她的第一份工作感到非常興奮, 分享著她對新機會的熱情和對未來的希望。
example 6: The team was on cloud nine after winning the championship, and their coach was in a good mood all day due to the great accomplishment. 譯文 例6: 奪冠後, 這個球隊極其快樂, 教練也因這一巨大成績, 一整天都心情愉快。
example 7: Jackie felt on top of the world after getting the promotion, while her class was in high spirits after winning the championship in a city competition. They all felt on fire with inspiration after this great event. 譯文 例7: 升職後, Jackie 感覺自己如處世界之巔十分高興, 而在城市比賽中贏得冠軍後, 她的班級士氣高昂。他們都對這次盛大活動所帶來的鼓舞和啟發充滿熱情。
example 8: Bobby and Kate were delighted with their successful wedding and were thrilled for their honeymoon - traveling abroad. 譯文 例8: Bobby 和 Kate 對他們圓滿的婚禮滿心歡喜, 並對他們的蜜月——出國旅行感到興奮不已。
in high spirits 是情緒高昂的意思, 而 in a good mood 則是心情好的意思。in 在這裡的意義與它基本意義很接近, 表示在某種狀態裡, 在這裡則是表示心情狀態。
on top of the world 的意思是十分高興, 如在世界之巔一般, 是個很形象的比喻。on cloud nine 是極樂的意思, 有一種說法是源於佛教的九重天。on fire 是個常用的介系詞短語, 意義比較多, 在這裡是興奮的和充滿激情的的意思。這裡的三個 on 的意義與它基本意義——在某某之上——十分地接近, 用比喻的方式來表示情感。此類短語屬英語裡的俚語(slang)。英語句子分層解析 我們解釋了以上幾個例子裡出現的介系詞短語 並作了翻譯, 至於他們句子結構, 姥姥在這裡就不再分析了, 因為, 1, 我們的《英語句子分層解析》自學課程 已包含了相當多的句子結構, 且這些句子均來自英文名著。2, 文字的分析解釋 遠不如我們的自學課程軟件裡的解析清晰, 因為該課程的句子結構分析, 是逐層展開的。由於清晰, 故而節省學習時間, 另外, 使用該課程的話, 同學們有足夠的時間可自己學著分析。若如此, 效果更佳。有興趣的同學可下載試用我們的 免費課件。 該課程分三級, 分別為 聖經故事、英美文學 和 歷史名篇
最後要說的是, 由於姥姥水平有限, 錯誤在所難免, 望批評指正。
