英語謂語的省略
一、在有些特殊語境中,有時可以省去句子的謂語。如:
Only one of us was injured, and he just slightly. 我們當中只有一人受了傷,而且只是輕傷。
分析:he后省去謂語was injured。
We went through the tests on a Monday. Jenny had hers during the day, and I mine after work. 有一個星期一,我們進行了檢查。詹尼在白天,我是在下班之后。
分析:I之后省去謂語had。
二、有時可省去謂語中的主要動詞。如:
I'll be round as quick as I can. 我將盡快趕來。
分析:can之后省去主要動詞be。
I pitied her sincerely, as I would a child of my own. 我真心地愛憐她,就像愛憐我自己的孩子一樣。
分析:would之后省去主要動詞pity。
