Unit 1 Grammar教学设计

定语从句：充当定语的有: 形容词、代词、名词、分词、介词短语或副词和从句.定语的位置一般有两种：用在所修饰词之前的叫前置定语，用在所修饰词之后的叫后置定语。在英语里,一般定语前置时的次序为:限定词，形容词、分词、动名词和名词性定语。但当几个形容同时出现在名词短语之前,我们要注意其次序。其形容词遵循的词序为：限观形龄色国材，指：限定词（一般指数量）；外观（美丽等）；形状（大小，高矮，肥瘦）；年

龄；颜色；国籍；材料；用途。如：

a famous American university an interesting little red French oil painting a new plastic bucket purple velvet curtains an elegant German clock 描述身体特征的形容词先于表示情感和性格特征的形容词

例如:a small lovely girl , a long patient queue , a pale anxious patient ;

2) 表示颜色的形容词放在表示情感和性格特征的形容词之后

例如:a kindly black teacher ,an inquisitive brown dog ; 3) little ,old 和young 有时可以作为名词短语不可分割的一部分,所以可以直接放在名词之前,例如:a lovely little girl 表示性格特征的形容词可以放在old young 之前,也可放在old young 之后,例如:a young ambitious man (强调年龄) ,an ambitious young man(强调雄心勃勃) 。当然,三个以上形容词连用作定语,就显得累赘,因此上面所说的情况一般较少出现。

英语里有大量的定语从句,而汉语里却没有定语从句的说法。英语中定语从句中甚至还可能包含定语从句,即多重定语从句。

如：

A healthy diet includes enough but not

too many kinds of foods that provide the

body with the nutrients that it needs to

function properly.

1）英语的复合句中,分句以其主句

为基干,通过连接手段,一层一层

地展开,就好像一棵树的树干上

长出大枝子,大枝子上再长出小枝

子。汉语的分句则更多按照时间

发生的顺序出现,依次展开。

如：

“伟大领袖和导师毛主席领导中国共产党进行了艰苦卓绝的斗争,建立了新中国,人民得到了解放,科学得到了解放。”这句话,译成英语便成了With the founding of new China (which was) born of arduous struggles (which were) waged by the Chinese Communist Party (which was) under the leadership of our great leader and teacher Chairman Mao , our people ,

and science as well , won emancipation.

2）英语中的非限制性定语从句所表达的

信息,在汉语里一般由另一个小句来

表达。
