worth和worthy用法搭配.docx

worth和worthy用法搭配1. 有关 be worth 的搭配习惯 (1) be worth后可直接跟名词、代词或动名词。如：The picture is worth $ 500. 这幅画值500 美元。The clock is hardly worth repairing. 这台钟简直不值得修理。What is worth doing is worth doing well. 值得干的事就得干好。注意：其后可接动名词，不能接不定式，且接动名词时，总是用主动形式表示被动意义。 (2) 在现代英语中，在be worth前使用形式主语it被认为是合习惯的。如：It isnt worth repairing the car. 这辆汽车不值得修了。Is it worth visiting the city? 这个城市值得去看吗? 但是，若不用形式主语it而直接用动名词作主语则是错误的，如：误：Repairing the car is worth. (3) 在be worth doing 结构中，除非句首用了形式主语it，否则句子主语总应是其动名词的逻辑宾语；若其中的动词不及物，应考虑加上适当的介词。如：Nothing he said was worth listening to. 他说的话没有一句值得听。Shes not worth getting angry with. 犯不上跟她生气。 2. 有关 be worthy 的搭配习惯。 (1) be worthy 后不能直接跟名词、代词或动名词，若要接，应借助介词 of。如：Their efforts are worthy of your support. 他们的努力应得到你的支持。 Her behavior is worthy of praise. 她的行为是值得赞扬的。 (2) 与be worth后只接动名词不接不定式不同，be worthy后不接动名词，而接不定式(若该不定式要表示被动意义，则应用被动形式)。如：He is worthy to receive such honor. 他应该得到这种荣誉。This suggestion is worthy to be considered. 这个建议值得考虑。 (3) 若要在be worthy后接动名词，与后接名词时的情形一样，应借助介词of，且该动名词若要表示被动意义，要用被动形式。如：He is worthy of filling =to fill the post. 这个职位他当之无愧。This suggestion is worthy of being considered =to be considered. 这个建议值得考虑。 “not until” 的两种强调结构 结构A：It is (was) not until + 时间状语(从句)+ that +主句 1) It was not until yesterday that I remembered it. 直到昨天我才记起这事。 2) It was not until I saw Margaret next morning that I felt happy. 直到我第二天早晨见到玛格丽特才感到高兴。 结构B：Not until +时间状语(从句)+主句的倒装句 1) Not until she got home did she realize that she had lost her necklace. 直到她到了家才发现她丢了项链。 2) Not until the film had begun did she arrive. 直到电影开始她才到。 试译下列句子： 1. Wait until I call. 2. We won't start until Tom comes. 3. They talked until dawn. 4. She didn't arrive until 6 o'clock. 5. Don't leave the building until you're instructed to do so.
