感叹句
感叹句一般是用来表示说话时的喜悦、惊讶等情感。英语感叹句常用what和how引导,what和how与所修饰的词置于句首,其它部分用陈述句语序。一、 由what引导的感叹句
what意为多么用作定语,修饰名词(被强调部分),单数可数名词前要加不定冠词a/an,复数可数名词或不可数名词前不用冠词。这类句子的结构形式是:what+(a/an)+adj+n+主语+谓语+(it is).如:What a clever girl she is!多么聪明的姑娘呀!What an interesting story it is!多么有趣的故事呀!What beautiful flowers they are!多么漂亮的花呀!What delicious food it is!多么有味的食物呀!二、由how引导的感叹句
how意为多么,用作状语,修饰形容词或副词(被强调部分)。如果修饰形容词,则句中的谓语动词用系动词;如果how修饰副词,则句中的谓语动词用行为动词,这类句子的结构形式是:How+adj(adv)+主语+谓语+(it is).如:
How cold it is today!今天多么冷呀!How nice the pictures are!多么漂亮的图画呀!How hard they are working now!他们干得多么起劲呀!三、在表示同一意义时,英语感叹既可用what引导,也可用how引导。如:What a hot day it is!=How hot the day is !多么热的天气呀!What tall buildings they are!=How tall the buildings are!多么高的楼房呀!好凉快呀!
