【今日主题】
This morning I will finish explaining the exercises in the 86th morning class. 我们来看第10题:一个人守在这儿真难熬。翻译为:It is dreadful 1 that only one person be here all alone with it.
【点评】
[陷阱提示] 大家千万要谨慎主语从句中that only one person be here all alone with it中的谓语是be, 而不要没事儿找事做—— 把be改为is而惹祸上身(考试挨扣分)。 用“be”是因为这个主语从句省略了should, 实际上完整的谓语是:should be,省略了should,就是be了。
[短语翻译] be all alone with something 独自地守着某物。 在这个短语中all是副词,修饰alone,加强了alone的程度,从而加强了句子的语气。All 在此句中是“very”的意思。For example: She is all exited. 她非常地激动。Don't get all upset about it now. 别再为那事儿那么难过了。
[短语拓展] be all alone with something 是独自地守着某物的意思,那当然我们可以说“独自地守着某人”,短语即是:be all alone with somebody. For example: She just had one son and her only son had to be all alone with her when she was hospitalized all day and all night. 她就只生了一个小孩,因此她生病住院时,她唯一的儿子就不得不独自一人天天整日整夜地守在她身旁。
[短语详析] all alone with it 这个形容词短语在这个主语从句中做状语,表示的是主语的状态。
After hours of walking, she arrived home safe.
The man was lying on the ground, dead.
He came back home, tired and hungry.
Mr Black came back drunk 2 that night.
既然是表示主语的状态,因此也有专家认为是主语的补足语。
