省略
省略句是语言中基于语境省略某些语法成分的现象,需符合上下文制约、成分可补全且补全后语义不变三项条件。其本质是通过省略已知信息实现语言表达的简洁性,被省略成分包括单词、短语或分句。省略在英语语言中,尤其在对话中,是一种十分普遍的现象。省略句是英语的一种习惯用法。
一、省略句的定义
省略是为了避免重复、突出新信息并使上下文紧密连接的一种语法修辞手段。省略在语言中,尤其在对话中,是一种十分普遍的现象。
二、词的省略
①不定式符号 to
感官动词(see/hear 等)和使役动词(let/make/have)后作宾补时省略 to,但变被动语态要加回。
并列不定式中,后一个to 可省略,但有对比意义时保留。
前面出现过相同动词时,保留to 省略动词原形,如"I want to (go)"。
e.g.I saw him walk into the room. 我看见他走进房间。
②功能词省略:
冠词:新闻标题、独一无二职位(如 President)、家庭成员称呼(如 Father)前常省略。
介词:表示一段时间的 for、方式状语的 in、固定搭配里的 in/on/from 等常省略,如"spend time (in) doing"。
连词:宾语从句的 that、定语从句中关系代词that(做宾语或不做成分)、条件句的 if(虚拟语气倒装时)可省略。
e.g.I believe (that) you will succeed. 我相信你们会成功的。
I ' ll give you all (that) I have. 我要把我所有的一切都给你。
注:在宾语从句中,当有两个及以上并列从句时,第一个that可省,以后的均不可省。
③名词所有格后:若修饰的名词前文已出现,或指店铺、教堂等,所有格后的名词可省,如"at the doctor's"。
三、句子成分的省略
①省略主语
e.g.Beg your pardon. (我)请你原谅。( Beg 前省略了主语 I )
Take care! 保重!( Take 前省略了主语 you )
Looks as if it will rain. 看起来像要下雨。( Looks 前省略了主语 it )
②省略谓语
e.g.Who next? 该谁了?( Who 后面省略了谓语 comes )
The river was deep and the ice thin. ( ice 后面省略了 was )
We ' ll do the best we can. 我们将尽力而为。( can 后面省略了动词do )
③省略表语
e.g.Are you ready? Yes, I am. 你准备好了吗? 我准备好了。( am 后面省略了 ready )
He was a lover of sports as he had been in his youth. 他还是象年轻时那样,是一位运动爱好者。
( had been 后面省略了 a lover of sports )
④省略宾语
e.g.Let ' s do the dishes. I ' ll wash and you ' ll dry. 让我们洗碗吧,我来洗,你来揩干。( wash 和 dry 后面省略了宾语 dishes )
⑤省略定语
e.g.He spent part of the money, and the rest he saved. 那钱他花了部分,其余的他都存了起来。( the rest 后面省略了定语 of the money )
⑥省略状语
e.g.He was not hurt. Strange! 他没有受伤,真奇怪!( Strange 前面省略了状语 how )
四、句子的省略:
①简单句里省成分:祈使句通常省略主语,对话中已知的主语、谓语或宾语也常省去,比如"(I) Hope so"或"(Have you) Got any ink"。
②并列句里省重复:用 and 或 but 连接的两个分句,如果后面分句有和前面相同的主语、谓语或宾语,通常直接省略,例如"He teaches English and his brother (teaches) maths"。
③复合句里省从句:
状语从句:当从句主语和主句一致且含 be 动词时,常省略“主语 +be",如"When (she was) asked, she didn't answer"。定语从句:关系代词 that/which/whom 在从句中作宾语时往往省略,如"the book (which) I got"。
名词性从句:宾语从句的引导词 that 在口语中常省略,多个 that 并列时第一个可省。
五、省略句中的难点:
省略句可同时省掉句子几个成份
e.g.What exciting news! (= What exciting news it is!) 多么令人激动的消息啊!
Pity he ' s failed. (= It is a pity that he ' s failed.) 很遗憾,他失败了。
I like himmore than her. (= I like him more than I like her.) 我喜欢他更甚于喜欢她。
六、英语中有一些固定的省略结构:
①在以 if, when,though, as if (好像)等连词引导的从句中,如从句中的主要动词是 be ,常将主语和动词 be 省略。
e.g.If necessary, we shall send a telegram home. 如有必要,我们就往家里打电报。
Whenever possible, he will come to my help. 他一有可能就来帮助我。
Whilecycling, don ' t forget the traffic lights. 骑车时,不要忘记看红绿灯。
②由固定词组引导的疑问句:
e.g.What about having a game of chess? 下盘棋怎么样?
How come they left you alone here? 他们怎么会把你一人留在这里呢?
What if it ' s raining? 如果天下雨怎么办?
Why not try again? 为什么不再试试呢?
③在口语中,为了避免重复,不定式可以省去和句子前部重复的动词原形而只留下不定式符号 to。
e.g.He may leave if he wishes to. 他可以走,如果他愿意的话。
Don ' t go till I tell you to. 等我叫你走你再走。
④被省略的部分一般可以在句子中补上,但有时省略结构已经定型,如果把省略部分补上,反而不合乎习惯。
e.g.He is taller than I am. 他比我高。( am 之后省略 tall ,补上不合习惯)
No parking.禁止停车。(告示用语 = No parking is allowed here. )
⑤有一些习惯表达很难补上所省略的部分:
e.g.Not at all. 不用谢。No matter. 不要紧。Thanks. 谢谢。
七、省略时有什么讲究
①避免产生歧义:省略后必须保证意思明确,否则不能省,比如"I like a dog"若省成"I like dog"可能变成“喜欢吃狗肉”。
②书面语尽量完整:口语中因有背景支持省略频繁,但书面写作若无上下文背书,句子应尽量保持完整。③特定习惯用法:有些省略已成固定搭配,如"if necessary"、"Me too"、"Why not try it",直接记忆即可。
