2011年10月自考英语考前要点复习(17)

　　1. … they look for such a chance.

　　句中的such是前置限定词，可放在可数或不可数名词前，如：

　　1) I''ve never seen such beautiful scenery.(我从没见过这样美丽的景色。)

　　2) He didn''t expect that the audience would give him such a response.(他没料想到观众们会给予如此反应。)

　　3) She didn''t feel like going out on such a cold day.(她不想在如此寒冷的日子里出门。)

　　从下面的句子中可以看出so与such的区别，so是副词，通常用来修饰形容词或副词：

　　1) The question was so difficult that nobody could answer it.

　　(这个问题太难了，没人能回答。)

　　2) His eyesight was so poor that he couldn''t see anything clearly.

　　(他的视力不好，什么也看不清。)

　　3) He ran so fast that nobody could catch up with him.

　　(他跑得那么快，没有人能赶上他。)

　　2. It is more important for them to learn to think in the language than to know the meaning of every word.

　　不定式短语to learn to think in the language是句子的真正主语。it常常被用来代替不定式，在句子中充当形式主语，而把真正的主语移到句子后面去，这样使句子显得比较平稳。为了说明不定式表示的动作是谁做的，便在不定式前加for引起的短语。又如：

　　1) It is not at all difficult for him to understand the poem.

　　2) It is necessary for us to lend him a helping hand at this time.

　　more important than是形容词比较级形式，请翻译下面的句子：

　　1) 汤姆的年龄比玛丽大。(Tom is older than Mary.)

　　2) 这本书比那本书更有趣。(This book is more interesting than that one.)

　　3) 我们班的学生人数比他们班的多。(There are more students in our class than in theirs.)
