英语语法:频率副词用法小结
沪江2018-08-21 10:42
如果我们将频率副词放在句子的开头或结尾表示强调,则情况并非如此。而且此规则也不适用于简短回答:
Is she usually on time?
她通常准时吗?
Tell her not to be late.
告诉她不要迟到。
Yes, she usually is.
是的,她通常是。
She never is.
她从来不。
如果句子中有多个动词(例如助动词),我们通常将频率副词放在第一个动词之后:
subject / helping verb or modal / adverb / main verb / predicate
主语/助动词或情态动词/副词/主动词/谓语
I can never forget his name.
我从来都不会忘记他的名字。
Anne doesn't usually smoke.
安妮通常不抽烟。
The children have often complained about the playground facilities.
孩子们经常抱怨游乐场的设施。
例外:
在含有“have to”的句子中,频率副词位于所有动词之前:
subject / adverb / have to / main verb / predicate
主语/副词/have to/主动词/谓语
We often have to wait for the bus.
我们经常要等公共汽车。
She never has to do any housework.
她从不做任何家务。
为了表示强调,我们可以将频率副词放在句子的开头或结尾。
首先,把它放在最后是很少见的。我们通常只在我们忘记把它放在开头时才把它放在结尾。
adverb / subject / main verb / predicate
副词/主语/主动词/谓语
Sometimes we go to school by bus.
有时候我们乘公共汽车上学。
Often he waits for her after class.
他经常在课后等她。
subject / main verb / predicate / adverb
主语/主动词/谓语/副词
We go to school by bus sometimes.
我们有时乘公共汽车去学校。
They like to watch TV often.
他们经常喜欢看电视。
例外情况:
“Always” 不能放在句子的开头或结尾。
“Never”,“seldom”,“rarely”不能放在句子结尾。他们只用于“陈述”的句子开头。然后他们必须遵循疑问句的词序:
Never has there been a better time to overcome our differences.
从未有过比这更好的时机来克服我们的分歧。
Rarely do we have an opportunity like this.
我们很少有这样的机会。
在疑问句中使用频率副词时,请将副词放在主动词之前:
auxiliary verb / subject / adverb / main verb / predicate
助动词/主语/副词/主动词/谓语
Do you often go to the cinema?
你常去电影院吗?
Do they usually come late to class?
他们经常上课迟到吗?
例外:
“Never”,“seldom”,“rarely”以及带有否定含义的其他频率副词通常不会在疑问句中使用。
当在否定句中使用频率副词时,请将频率副词放在主动词之前:
Subject / helping verb / adverb / main verb / predicate
主语/助动词/副词/主动词/谓语
They don't often go to the cinema.
他们不经常去电影院。
Peter doesn't normally want to come with us.
彼得通常不想和我们一起来。
