第一期30天英语阅读习惯训练营Day 19:插入语(parent

作者: Freedom_Pursuer | 来源:发表于2017-06-18 22:24 被阅读105次

    训练营的小伙伴问到了插入语,今天就讲讲插入语(parenthesis)吧。

    01 什么是插入语

    thefreedictionary.com

    插入语可以是单词、短语或从句,插入到句子/段落中,进行解释说明或补充说明。把插入语从句子中移除后,句子在语法上仍然正确。插入语一般会用逗号(commas)、破折号(dashes)、圆括号(parentheses与句子区分开。

    02 逗号、破折号、圆括号的用法

    一般而言,逗号、破折号、圆括号是在插入语前后成对(in pairs)出现的。只有当插入语结束后句子也结尾了(用句点),才会用一个逗号/破折号。举例说明:

    Lee, however has never found out what he loves to do.      ✘

    Lee, however, has never found out what he loves to do.      ✔

    03 更多示例

    Paul, on the other hand,is considered extremely trustworthy.

    House prices in Alton, which is only 25 minutes from London,are soaring.

    My family is getting a new dog from the shelter (we are going to name him Barney).

    Marie (8 years-old) is a little girl who goes to school with my brother.

    Did you leave your bag (red, black handles) in the classroom?

    Due to pub quizzes, Buzz Aldrin —the second man on the Moon— is now as famous as Neil Armstrong.

    It depends — as my mother used to say — on trust.

      • 风流荷:Furthermore, potentially staying ahead of competitors for jobs by being more experienced or knowledgeable can give you an edge. 此处"by"是什么意思?可以表示"经过"或者"由于"么 能用because of代替么?
        风流荷: @米奥猫 嗯嗯
        Freedom_Pursuer:@风流荷
        by being more experienced or knowledgeable 在这里是方式状语,表示“通过……”,相当于through。而because of表示原因,所以不能在这里代替by
      • 风流荷:If you do find yourself unemployed then use the time wisely. Learning something new can pay-off with new opportunities which might not otherwise have arisen. 这里pay-off 是哪一种意思?
        Freedom_Pursuer:@风流荷 对的
        风流荷: @米奥猫 是"使得益"的意思对么
        Freedom_Pursuer:@风流荷 pay-off接在can后面,是动词,意思是:to yield profits; to result in benefits
      • 风流荷:There does not need to be a specific reason for learning since learning for the sake of learning can in itself be a rewarding experience. 这里的"in itself"可以放在"can"前面么 位置怎么确定?
        Freedom_Pursuer:@风流荷 放在can前面会产生歧义,容易把itself误解成指learning,而此处的in itself的itself指learning for the sake of learning。但是in itself可以放在句尾。放在哪里主要是看会不会产生歧义,放在哪里更方便理解。
