雅思阅读中往往会出现句子读不透读不明白的情况,这个时候大家还是需要一点辨别能力的,需要辨明是不是省略掉了句子中的一些成分。
雅思阅读中的一些句子为了避免重复,使语言简练紧凑,在不损害句子结构或引起误解的情况下,往往省略一个或多个句子成分或词语。这就是雅思阅读省略现象出现的原因,到底有哪些雅思阅读省略方式呢?
1、简单句中的省略
The meeting(being)over,we all left the room.
Tools(having been)carried,we went on our way to the fields.
2、从句中的省略
(1)宾语从句中的省略:
1)以“which/where/when/how/why”等引起的宾语从句,在其谓语动词与主句谓语动词相同时,其后的主语和谓语可全部省略,而仅保留一个"wh-"词。
She can’t come,but 1 wonder why(she can’t come).
He will be back,I don’t know when(he will be back).
2)在“I’m afraid,I believe,I expect,I fancy,I fear,I hope,I imagine,I should,I should say,I suppose,I think,I trust”之后的"not"等于一个否定的"that"从句,“so”等于一个肯定的"that"从句。
“Is he sick”一“I am afraid so.”(=I am afraid that he is sick.)
(2)定语从句中的省略:
定语从句中可以省略作宾语的关系代词that。在非正式文体中,关系副词“when/why也可以省略,关系代词后面的主谓结构有时也可以省略。
I shall never forget the day (when) we first met,
He gave the same answer as (he had given)before.
I like the place for the very reason(why)you dislike it.
(3)状语从句中的省略:
1)在时间、地点、让步、方式、条件状语从句中,如果从句的主语与主句的主语一致,或者从句的主语是“it” ,则从句中的动词“be”及其主语可以省略。
Any progress,however small (it may be),is important.
Change the form of the verbs where(it is)possible/necessary.
His opinion,whether(it is)fight or wrong,would be considered.
3.并列句中的省略
(1)在并列句中,后一个句子有时可以省略跟前面句子中相同的部分
Matters consist of molecules,and molecules(consist)d atoms.
Tom is writing his term paper,but John isn’t(writing his term paper).
We frequently regard gases as compressible,(and regard)liquids as incompressible.(我们通常把气体看成是可以压缩的,液体是不可压缩的。)
(2)在并列句中,第二句用"neither/nor/so"引出时,出现省略;“neither/nor/so还可以引起倒装。
He didn’t fear new ideas,nor did he fear the future.
试比较
“I went to the movie last night.”一————“So did I ”
“Did Alice learn Spanish in high school?”一——“I think so ”
