Ⅱ.重點(diǎn)句型詳解

1．It seemed as if the world was at an end! 世界似乎到了末日！

It seems (to sb.) that... (對某人來說)似乎……＝Sb. seems to do/to be doing/to have done...

It seems as if/though... “似乎(好像)……”，可接虛擬語氣。

seem＋(to be)＋n./adj. 似乎是……

There seems to be... 好像有……

It seems so. (＝So it seems.) 似乎是那樣。

①It seemed that he had known the truth.＝He seemed to have known the truth. 他好像知道了真相。

③There seemed to be a voice in the distance.似乎遠(yuǎn)處有人說話。

④It always seemed as though everything in my childhood had just happened.我童年的一切仿佛剛剛發(fā)生一樣。

辨析：seem/look/appear

(1)seem 暗含有一定的根據(jù)，往往是接近實(shí)際的判斷，后可接介詞、形容詞、不定式或從句。

(2)look 著重由視覺而得出的印象，可與 like連用，但不能與不定式連用。可接 as if從句，不接 that從句。

(3)appear 強(qiáng)調(diào)外表給人的印象，而且事實(shí)往往并非如此?？山?that從句，不接 as if從句。

[即境活用1]—What a noise! I can hardly stand it.

—It ______ as if they are having a party next door.
A．looks　　B．seems? C．a(chǎn)ppears D．happens

解析：C、D項(xiàng)不接 as if從句。A項(xiàng)不合題意?？疾?It seems as if...句式。

答案：B

2．In the farmyards, the chickens and even the pigs were too nervous to eat. 在農(nóng)家院子里，雞和豬都煩躁不安，以致不吃食。

too...to... 句型表示“太……以至于不能……(表否定)”，可轉(zhuǎn)化為 not...enough to...和 so...that...。

The child is too young to dress himself.

=The child is not old enough to dress himself.

=The child is so young that he can't dress himself.這孩子太小，不能夠自己穿衣。

提示：(1)當(dāng) too后接 easy, ready, happy, willing, eager 或 anxious時(shí)，to 后的動詞表示肯定。例如：

The book is too easy to understand.這本書太容易理解了。

He was too anxious to leave.他急于離開。

(2)too...not to... 句式表示肯定意思。例如：

He is too careful not to have noticed it.他那么細(xì)心，不會不注意到這一點(diǎn)的。

(3)too...to...中 too前面用了否定詞(如 never)時(shí)，表示肯定。例如：

It is never too late to mend.改過不嫌晚。

(4)only too...to...表示肯定，其中 too后的形容詞多數(shù)是表示某種心情的，如 glad, pleased, willing, thankful, delighted, determined 等，也有描繪性的形容詞，如 good, kind, true等。例如：

The girl is only too kind to help us.這姑娘非常樂于幫助我們。

[即境活用2]　Jim is a kind boy. He is ______willing to help his classmates.

A．so B．such? C．much D．too

解析：too＋glad/pleased/willing...to...表示肯定意義。如用A項(xiàng)應(yīng)改為 so...as to才對。

答案：D
