两人对话,乙方对甲方的问话常可用简短回答作出 反应。例如: Do you like it? -- Yes,I do.这同样适用于陈述句的场合: You worry too much.-- No,I don't.在后一种情况下,乙方也能"So+do+主语"之类 的结构表示看法。 ) C E' { n0 G) T7 V' ], r
例如甲方说"我喜欢苹果",乙方 如果想表示"我也喜欢苹果",英语可以说:
9 _. l ~; p- P& w3 ^6 y7 r2 P; N# r9 D2 m- e' X8 [
A:I like apples. ; _9 N. |8 I G' b; O$ C
" ~& t5 d/ [# b' k$ tB:So do I.(= I like apples,too。) 7 s* C) Y% ]/ [+ c- W+ w
X5 T, s$ D; E! P. l6 z 这里的so在意义上相当于in the same way,即同样、 也那样,作简短反应表示同样看法时常用之。 ' F( d+ o3 m" e. e i7 k' y! s) V
, v/ `$ F9 H( z本文 就诸如此类的四种结构略作介绍。
9 D& a) M+ C. n' h4 y1 ?3 o e% [; I
1."So+do+主语"结构 在简短反应中表示"我也如此"或"另外一个人也 如此"时,也就是主语不同于上文的主语以及上 文并无可用于构成倒装的动词(即操作词时), 可用此结构。例如: A:I like playing football. B:So do I./So does my brother./So did my father. 如果上文有可用于构成倒装的动词时,则用相同 的动词或根据不同人称用同类的动词。 I must go -- So must I. John can speak French.--So can I. I've got a new car.--So has John. She is clever.-- So is he. 5 { W* `: A m. \, F6 K+ F
1 A$ _4 Y8 s9 d) g2."Neither/Nor + do + 主语" 结构 如果上文表示否定意义而在简短反应中表示同样 看法时,可用此结构。例如,甲方说I can't swim, 乙方如果想表示"我也不会游泳",英语可以说 Neither can I. / Nor can I(=I can't either)。
8 m8 a: ^) G4 B
% m0 U2 B% u( ^" ~: R% h- @又例如: A:He doesn't speak French. B:Neither/Nor do I. Neither/Nor does my brother. Neither/Nor does my father. 关于以上两种结构,有两点说明: v4 [0 U! l4 l! F
' T5 v5 Q7 }& u* m4 N( q' v第一,能用动词缩略形式。例如: I'm going to London. ---So's John。(is) I've been to New York. ---So's John.(has) I'd have gone to Tokyo if I could.---So'd John.(would) John hasn't got a visa. ---Nor've do I.(have) Jim and Mary aren't acting in the college play. ---Neither's Peter.(is)
; p8 l B) J% N$ s' C1 L$ ?6 R' F+ m3 d9 B9 e: ^ ]
第二,上述甲乙对话如用and连成一句可出自一人 之口。例如: John can speak French and so can't I. John can't speak French and neither/ nor can I. John speaks French and so do I. John doesn't speak French and neither/nor do I. 上述斜体部分相当于and I can, too / and I can't either / and I do too / and I don't either 的意思。 " b' e5 v8 D8 n5 T6 v, i U: \
( o/ ~. C5 |0 |9 [, p: d; `4 b: a3."So+主语+do"结构 在简短反应中,对别人所说的情况加以肯定以及 主语与上文主语相同时,可用此结构,注意,这 里不用倒装同序;so 的意义相当于indeed, certainly,即"不错"、"对了"。例如: A:John smokes a lot. B: So he does.(=He smokes a lot indeed.) 这类简短反应往往带有说话人的惊奇口吻。例如: A:Look,it's raining! B: So it is. 在这里,So it is的含义是 You are right! It is raining;and this surprises me. / r2 E: e# v2 l! {) X
