插入语用法归纳
插入语用法很多,在句子中的位置比较灵活,在学习中应当认真去体会
。大体而言,插入语可以
分为以下几类:
1.
用简短的句子结构作插入语。这类短语有:I think, I hope, I guess, I
believe, I
suppose, I wonder, I tell you, I
say, I'm afraid, I'm sure, you see, you know, as
you
know, that is, that is to say, what's
more等等,它们可以置于句中或句尾。如:
I suggest you choose
someone who you think is kind and friendly.
This diet, I think, will do good to your health.
It won't be raining long, I hope.
You will have to work harder, you know, if you
want to succeed.
2.
副词或副词短语用作插入语,这类插入语一般放在句首或句尾。如:
Happily for
him, his father's second wife was kind to him too.
You'll be able to pass the coming exam,
surely.
Luckily for him, he didn't hurt in
the accident.
Honestly, I don't need it at
the moment.
3.
介词或介词短语作插入语,这类插入语一般放在句首,有时也可放在句中。如:
Like
most of my schoolmates, I have neither brothers
nor sisters-in other words,
I'm an only child.
By the way, Bob sends his best wishes.
On the other hand, I didn't know you were
there.
In short, things have begun to
improve since schools were called on to reduce
learning load.
4. 分词短语作插入语。如:
Judging from your accent, you must be from
England.
Generally speaking, he is the
best student in our class.
Compared with
China, the USA is smaller.
5. 不定式短语作插入语。如:
To put it mildly, he was not up to the
mark.
To tell you the truth, I don't want
to see her.
To be sure, Jim is a faster
skater, but he is not good at doing figures.
To conclude, it was a great success.
在日常交
际用语和书面表达中,插入语频频出现。英语中的插入语(Parenthesis)是插在句
子中的一
个词,短语或从句,通常被逗号、破折号或句子的其他部分隔开,它与句子的其他部
分之间没有语法上的
关系,因此,有的语法学家将其归为独立成分。
插入语在句中通常是对一句话的一
些附加解释,说明或总结;有时表示说话者的态度和看
法;有时起强调的作用;有时是为了引起对方的注
意;还可以起转移话题或说明事由的作用;
也可以承上启下,使句子与前面的语句衔接的更紧密一些。
插入语大致可分为以下10种类型:
1.
形容词或形容词短语作插入语
如:worst still,
sure enough, strange, most important of all等。
Strange, there is nobody in the classroom.
很奇怪,教室里没人。
2. 副词或副词短语作插入语
如:personally, honestly, fortunately, luckily, for
us, though, besides, exactly,
surely, frankly,
still otherwise 等。
Luckily for you, I
happen to have the key.
你很运气,我正好带了钥匙。
3. 介词短语作插入语
如:of course, in short, as a matter of fact, by the
way, on the other hand, in my
opinion, in
conclusion等。
In short, we should not
stop halfway.
简言之,我们不能半途而废。
As a result, they suffered heavy losses.
结果,他们受到了严重损失。
On the
contrary, we should strengthen our ties with them.
相反,我们还应加强和他们的联系。
4. 现在分词短语作插入语
如:generally speaking,
judging from by …, talking of…, considering…等。
Considering his age, he did very
well.
从年龄考虑,他干得挺不错。
Frankly speaking, I don’t like the job.
坦率地说,我不喜欢这份工作。
Talking of
singing, will you go to the concert with me
tonight?
说到唱歌,你今晚愿意和我一块去音乐会吗?
5. 过去分词短语作插入语
Painted white, we like the house better.
漆成白色,我们更喜欢这房子。
注意:之所以称它为插入语,是由于这种过去分词是独立的,没有逻辑主语。
6. 动词不定式
如:to be sure, to be
frank(坦率地说),to tell you the truth(说实话),so to speak
(可以说)等。
To be frank, I don’t
quite agree with you.
坦率地说,我不太同意你的意见。
That’s a wonderful
idea, to be sure.
这个主意好极了,的确。
To tell you the truth, I am not very
interested in going to the show.
说实在的,我不太想去看演出。
7. 代词词组
如:all the same(尽管如此),all told(总共),all in
all(总的来说)等。
His crew was reduced to
twenty-four all told.
他的船员减少到总共二十四人。
All in all, her condition is
greatly improved.
总的来说,她的情况有很大好转。
8. 从句
如:if so
not any, if I may say so, if you don’t mind, as
you know, as you say
等。
If I may
say so, we know nothing about it.
正如我所说的,我们对它一无所知。
This man, as you
know, is good for nothing.
正如你所说的,这个人是个废物。
9. 句子
如:I say hear, I think hope believe, you
know see, what’s more, that is (to
say), I’m
afraid, do you think suppose等。
It’s
a great mistake, I think, not to accept their
proposal.
我看,不接受他们的建议是个大错误。
The temple disappeared, no one remembers
when.
谁也不记得什么时候这座庙就没有了。
The old man, it is said, was an artist but people
hardly know anything about
this side of his
life.
据说,这位老人曾是个艺术家,可是人们对他这方面的生活几乎一无所知。
10. 用标点符号引导插入语
如:He was
(strange as it seems)an excellent sportsman.
他(尽管还显得令人不解)是个出色的运动员。
He was -to me at least, if not to you-a
figure that was worth having pity on.
至少我觉得如此,即使你不这样认为,他是一个值得同情的人。
插入语
http: 20041215 15:02 新浪教育
英语句
子中(尤其在口语中)常插入一些单词、短语或者句子,用来补充某些含义。语法
上称它们为“插入语”
。插入语在句中起到解释、说明等作用,有时表达说话人一种看法。很
多插入语对句子本身的影响并不大
,如果去掉它,我们仍然清楚句子所表达的意思。然而有
些插入语是句子不可缺少的成分,如果去掉句子
的意思就不完整,如for example, in other
words等。
1. 插入语的类型
(1) 单词(多是副词)
单词作插入语时位置比较随便,我们常见的多位于句末, 它们也可以位于句中或句首。
常见的作插入语的单词有though, however, therefore,
personally,
luckily ,fortunately, obviously等。有
些副词可以表示上下文的逻辑关系,起到连接的作
用(虽然本身不是连词),这一类副词常用逗号把它与
句子隔开。有些副词表达说话人的看法
或观点,它们多位于句首。
①I had
thought I could not pass the exam. I passed,
though.
我原以为我通过不了这次考试,我还是通过了。
②She had
seen the picture. However, she never told it to
anyone.
她曾见过那幅画。然而,她从未向其他人提及。
③Luckily, his father’s second wife was kind to
him.
幸运的是,他父亲的第二任妻子对他很好。
(2)
短语
现在分词短语、不定式短语、介词短语都可以作插入语,它们在句中起到补充说明的作
用。
常见的作插入语的短语有,for example, by the way, in some way,
judging from,
to tell you the truth, so far,
on the contrary, on wonder, chances (are
that),
worse still, to start with等。
①By
the way, how can I find you? 顺便问一句,我如何找到你?
②What on earth do you want to say ? 你到底想说什么?
③To tell you the truth, I have found out that he
stole the car.
说实话,我已经弄清他偷了那辆车。
(3) 句子
我们常见的作插入语的句子有,do you think, I believe, do
you know, what’s
more, let’s say, that is to s
ay,它们多位于句末,来表达客气或征询别人的看法。也可以
表示补充。表示疑问的插入语也可以位于
句中或句末。
①He is an honest man, I believe.
我相信,他是个诚实人
②As far as I know, Jack isn’t
clever. 据我所知,杰克并不聪明。
③How soon will he be
ready, do you expect ? 你想一下,他多长时间能准备好?
2.
有些复杂的特殊疑问句,也可认为包含有“插入语”。这种疑问句(
也称为“混合疑问
句”或“连锁疑问句”),常用来征询某一疑问点的看法、判断、认识、
猜度或请求。口语中
出现的频率极高。
①When do you expect he
will come back ? 你想他会什么时候回来?
②Who do you
guess has taken away the book ? 你猜是谁拿走了那本书?
3. 防止句中的插入语干扰我们对句子结构的掌握及对句子意义的理解。
由于插入语的位置比较随便,在许多情况下它可以位于句中,因此它对我们考生的干扰
是比较大的。

答案与分析
1.
A此题我们极易错选A。分析本句的结构我们可以看出,if not better than 在这
里是插入语。如果我们把它抽出(前面我们讲过有些插入语完全可以去掉而不影响句子的意
思,有的仅起
到补充的作用),我们就很清楚地看到答案是B。
2 A
从本空前后的逗号看,本题考查插入语的用法。四个选项中作插入语的是A
和D。
再根据空后的even when...我们不难选出答案A。
3. B as
far as I can see是一个插入语,意思是“据我所看到的”。

答案与分析
1. B 本题我们极易错选 A或C。That’s
all意思是“就这些”,表示讲话或文章的结束,
而That’s all
right意思是“行、可以、没关系”。That’s it
为一固定搭配,意思是“这正是
所需要的。”
2. C
表示“寻求别人帮忙”时用Excuse me。
3. A to tell you the
truth为固定搭配,意思是“说实话”,为插入话,不与句子主语
形成逻辑关系。
4. C 本题上文说“你们差不多快做完了吧?”下文说“恰好相反, 我们才刚刚开始哩。”
5. A by and by为固定搭配,相当于soon,意思是“不久”。one by one
意思是“一个
接一个地”。after a while过去一会儿。long
before很久以前,因此 B,C,D都不合题意。
6. B except
that后跟从句,而 except for和besides后跟名词或动名词短语。
7.
C 在这四个选项中只有for example可以用作插入语,而且位置也比较灵活。
D
有较大干扰性。但such as 后必须跟宾语。
8. C 本题主要部分为who
is the best football player in your city。 插入语为do
you think.
9. D 插入语to one’s
surprise的意思是“令某人吃惊的是”,其他答案句子结构错误。
10. C
插入语whether...or...意思是“不管……”。
11. A 插入语 As is
well known为定语从句,意思是“众所周知”。
12. D
插入语therefore在此表达前后的因果关系。
13. B as a matter
of fact意思是“事实上”。
14. C 插入语on
earth的意思是“究竟、到底”,用于疑问句或否定句中。
15. C 插入语in
other words意思是“换句话说”,是对前文的解释。
16. B 本句话的意思是“
若是他的书法不比他哥哥的好的话,起码跟他哥哥的一样好”。
插入语if not
better than在句中起到连词的作用。
17. B
fortunately是一句评述性语言,表达说话人的看法。
18. C what’s
more意思是“更有甚者”,在本句中, 说话人强调迷路的原因是It was
raining
heavily和It was getting dark。
19. A 插入语to
tell you the truth意思是“说实话”。
20. C 插入语general
speaking意思是“一般来说”,指常规。
插入语知多少
作者:佚名
来源:搜集整理 录入:烟雨江南 字体:
英语句子中(尤其在口语中)常
插入一些单词、短语或者句子等,用来补充含义、或作一些解释。
语法上称它们为
“插入语”。插入语在英语中形式多样,内容丰富,使用灵活。
1, 插入语的类形:
1),少数副词 如: (un)luckily ,though,however,
still,等,有时充当插入语。
例如: She is looking fit ,
though . 她看起来倒是健康 。
I can , however, discuss
this when I see you .然而,我可以在见到你的时候再讨论这件事
情
I have a bit of a cold . It is nothing much ,
though . 我有点感冒,不过并不严重。
The task is very
difficult , besides , time presses . 任务艰巨,而且时间紧迫。
2),介词短语或固定词组充当插入语
例如:for example例如 ; by
the way顺便说一下 ; as a result结果,因此;all the
same尽管如此 ; on the other hand另一方面 ; in fact事实上
; in a word总之 ; in
other words换言之 ; in
general大体上 ; strange to say说来奇怪 ; to make a long
story short长话短说 first of all首先;above
all更重要的是;in one
’
s opinion依某人看;
what
’
s more而且 ;so far 到目前为止;as usual
像往常一样;
例如:It does not often rain in the summer
here .As a result , we have to water the
vegetable garden . 在这儿夏天不常下雨,因此我们得用水浇灌菜园。
First of all, dont come in here without a
teacher .首先,如果没有老师,就不要来这儿。
,
Above all,
something must be done to stop polluting
.更重要的是,必须釆取某些措
施来阻止污染。
3) ,短句或句子充当插入语:
例如:I believe as far as I know I think I hope
; I guess I
’
m afraid I suppose
I
wonder you see; you know do you think(suppose)
; don’t
you think It is said
that
is to see It seems it seems to me
what
’
s more I say 等
例如:That would
be a good beginning , I hope .我希望,那是一个好的开始。
Where do they believe we should go during the
summer holiday? 你认为暑假期间,
我们应该到哪儿去。
What
’
s more , 40 percent of workers in
factories have to find new jobs again
.而
且工厂里有40%的工人不得不再找新工作。
2, 插入语的位置:
插入语通常位于句中,并用逗号隔开。但有时也可位于句首或句末(见上面例句)。也有时并<
br>不用逗号隔开。如:
You know I think you are
wrong . 我认为,你明白你错了。
What on earth do you
mean ? 你究竟是什么意思?
How long did you see she
would stay here ? (= How long would she stay here
,
did you see ?)
When do you suppose
they will be back ? (= When will they be back ,
do you
suppose ?)
What explanation do you
suppose the teacher could give ? 你想老师会如何解释?
Who do you guess broke the window ? 你猜是谁把窗户打破了?
写作高分支招:多用插入语,改变原来的Chinglish的写作语序。
在一个句子中间插入一个成分,它不作句子的何种成分,也不和句子的何种成
分发生结构关系,同时既
不起连接作用,也不表示语气,这个成分称之插入语。
插入语在句中有时是对一句话的一些附
加解释、说明或总结;有时表达说话
者的态度和看法;有时起强调的作用;有时是为了引起对方的注意;
还可以起转
移话题或说明事由的作用;也可以承上启下,使句子衔接得更紧密一些。
从雅思高分写作来看,凡是8分及以上的写作都没有很明显的连词加逗号的形
式。如
First, second, however,
而是浑然天成,整篇文章虽没有很明显的逻
辑衔接词汇,但是却能衔接紧密,Why?
今天从英语新闻中来学习一下如何能让
自己的写作看上去更“成熟地道”一点。
这些扭曲需要纠正。然而从试图纠正类似扭曲的发展中国家的历史先例来看,调整
过
程中的最大障碍将是这些集团的反对。比如杰弗瑞•弗里登(Jeffrey Frieden)在他
1
993年关于拉丁美洲的著作中认为,拉美70年代后期的调整之所以极其缓慢、痛
苦,正是因为强大的
既得利益在妨碍或稀释改革方面是如此成功
These
distortions need to be reversed. The historical
precedents for developing countries
that have
attempted to reverse similar distortions, however,
suggest that the biggest
impediment to the
adjustment process will be opposition from these
groups. Jeffrey
Frieden in his 1993 book on
Latin America, for example, argues that the Latin
America
adjustment in the late 1970s was
extremely slow and painful precisely because
powerful
vested interests were so successful
in retarding or diluting reform.
试比较不用插入语:
These distortions need to be
r, The historical precedents for developing
countries that have attempted to reverse
similar distortions suggest that the biggest
impediment to the adjustment process will be
opposition from these
example,Jeffrey Frieden
in his 1993 book on Latin America argues that the
Latin
America adjustment in the late
1970s was extremely slow and painful precisely
because
powerful vested interests were so
successful in retarding or diluting reform.
请注意:
老外:是将however,和 for
example这样的连词放在了主谓语之间。
句子之间就
显得更加紧密,从而增加了句子的凝聚力。
我们:往往总是先however再写逗号,然后
再跟内容。因此,偶尔或用
一些插入语,能让我们写作看上去更成熟,但切忌从头用到尾过分使用。
