三、狀語從句經(jīng)典系列

① I first got to know him/it when + 從句(過去式)

② (名詞或代詞) have (動(dòng)詞過去分詞) since +從句(過去式)

③ If I had the chance, I would like to…

④ If …, then it is quite possible that I will…

以上句型只需稍加變動(dòng),便可應(yīng)用于多種話題。句型之間的有機(jī)組合還可成為集合,碰到?jīng)]話說的時(shí)候十分頂用。

句型①套用實(shí)例:

I first got to know him when I was studying in primary school. (人物題通用)

I first read the story/saw the programme when I was visiting my grandparents three years ago. (物品題通用)

I first learned how to skate/play basketball when I was in high school. (興趣愛好題通用)

句型②套用實(shí)例:

We have lost contact since he moved out of town.

I have stopped watching the programme since I entered the university where TV was not available.

I have been practicing basketball on a regular basis ever since I knew how to play it.

句型③是虛擬語氣,表達(dá)一種設(shè)想。當(dāng)問題為would you like to…時(shí),建議使用該句型。另外,還可以在無話可說時(shí)用來應(yīng)急。套用句型:

If I had the chance, I would like to travel to California and visit my best friend who I haven’t seen for ages.

If I had the chance, I would like to ask Yaoming to autograph my basketball.

句型④是在分情況討論問題時(shí)必備句型,也是豐富回答內(nèi)容的經(jīng)典招數(shù)。套用實(shí)例:

Q: What do you usually do at weekends?

A: Well, it’s hard to say. I mean, if I am with friends, then it’s quite possible that we will go window shopping or traveling around. But if I am alone, it’s more likely that I will just stay at home and do some washing and cleaning.

當(dāng)然,以上兩種情境還可以變換成多種可能,如按天氣狀況分為If it is good weather, 和If it is bad weather; 按時(shí)間多少分為If I’ve got a lot of time,和If I am fairly busy; 等等。

綜上,三大英語從句在口語中的適量使用可以起到意想不到的效果,既在語法這一評(píng)分標(biāo)準(zhǔn)上贏得了優(yōu)勢,又可以幫助擺脫考場上無話可說的尷尬。因此,相信考生們只要肯花功夫和時(shí)間記憶以上一些經(jīng)典句型并加以鞏固練習(xí),必定會(huì)在雅思口語單項(xiàng)方面有所提高。
