否定轉(zhuǎn)移的形式

一、動詞的否定轉(zhuǎn)移

1. 形式上否定主句的謂語，實際上是否定從句的謂語

當(dāng)動詞think, believe, suppose, imagine, expect, feel的主語是第一人稱、謂語動詞為沒有任何副詞修飾的一般現(xiàn)在時，它們的否定式實際上是對賓語從句的否定。表示說話者提出一種委婉的看法或主張。如：

I think that he will help us. —I don't think that he will help us. 我認(rèn)為它不會幫助我們。

I believe that he is right. —I don't believe that he is right. 我認(rèn)為他不對。

I suppose that he likes it. —I don't suppose that he likes it. 我想他不喜歡它。

2. 形式上否定謂語動詞，實際上否定復(fù)合賓語

當(dāng)動詞think, believe, suppose, imagine, expect, feel, find的主語是第一人稱、謂語動詞為沒有任何副詞修飾的一般現(xiàn)在時，它們前面的否定式實際上是對復(fù)合賓語的否定。表示說話者所提出的一種委婉的看法或主張。如：

I think math difficult. — I don't think math difficult. 我認(rèn)為數(shù)學(xué)不難。

I find the story interesting. — I don't find the story interesting. 我認(rèn)為這個故事沒有趣。

I expect so. —I don't expect so. 我認(rèn)為不會。
