  【知识点讲解】

  1.The former Prime Minister, Mr. Wentworth Lane, was defeated in the recent elections. 前首相温特沃兹•莱恩先生在最近的大选中被击败。

  (1)former在这里表示“以前的”、“从前的”或“前任的”,后面需要跟名词:

  Yesterday, he received a letter from his former wife/English teacher.

  昨天他收到了他前妻/以前的英语老师的一封信。

  Former “以前的”、“在前面的”, the former president 前总统

  Latter (刚提及的两者中)后者的,后面的

  eg.Of the two the latter is far Better than the former

  两者中后者比前者好得多。

  (2)the ex-Prime Minister had gone abroad.……这位前首相出国去了。

  前缀ex-加在名词前表示“以前的”(相当于former),如ex-husband(前夫), ex-wife(前妻),ex-taxi-driver(前出租汽车司机),ex-manager(前任经理),ex-headmaster(前任校长)等。

  (3)election指一般选举时用单数,指全国性的选举时用复数:

  He hopes to defeat his rival in next year's elections.

  他希望在明年的大选中击败对手。

  2.He is now retiring from political life and has gone abroad. 他现在退出了政界,到国外去了。

  retire from 隐居;隐退: retire from political life 退出政治生活

  退休:he retired from the business when he was 60.他60岁时退休了。

  retire to 隐退,后退,离去: he retired to his own room after supper . 晚饭后,他退到他的房间。

  3.Though a little suspicious this time…虽然那位警察这次有点疑心……

  这是一个省略了主语和连系动词的让步状语从句。

  While at college, she wrote a novel.

  她上大学时写了一部小说。

  (1)suspicious adj.

  (a) 猜疑的,认为可疑的,对……起疑心的,多疑的:

  If travellers look nervous, customs officers get suspicious.

  如果旅客看上去神情紧张,海关官员就会起疑心。

  (b)可疑的,令人起疑的:

  You get a lot of suspicious-looking people in this bar.

  你这个酒吧里有许多人看上去很可疑。

  固定搭配 be (fell) suspicious of (about)

  (2)这是一个让步状语从句。如果从句的主语和主句的相同而谓语带系动词be,则主语+be可省略;但原因状语从句的省略形式要带分词being:

  If possible, please let me know by this evening.

  如果可能的话,请今晚以前告诉我。

  He is better, though not yet cured. (= he is better, though he is not yet cured.)

  他好一点了,虽仍未痊愈。

  状语从句

  在句子中起状语作用的从句叫做状语从句。状语从句由从属连词引导。

  状语从句可分为:

  时间状语从句:

  When Susan goes to town, she will visit her grandma.

  苏珊每次进城,总要去看望她奶奶。

  地点状语从句:

  I will go where I am needed.

  哪里需要我,我就到哪里去。

  方式状语从句:

  I have changed it as you suggest.

  我已经按照你的建议作了改变。

  原因状语从句:

  Mary didn't go shopping because I advised her not to.

  玛丽没有去购物,因为我劝她不要去。

  目的状语从句:

  They worked hard in order that they might succeed.

  他们努力工作,以便能够获得成功。

  结果状语从句:

  Waste must be treated so that it does not become a danger to life.

  废物必须进行处理,这样它才不会成为危害生命的东西。

  条件状语从句:

  If he works hard, he will surely succeed.

  如果努力工作,他肯定会成功。

  让步状语从句:

  Though we are all different, we need never be separate.

  虽然我们各不相同,但是我们永远也不会分开。

  比较状语从句:

  I was happier than I had ever been in my life.

  这是我一生中最快乐的时光。
