新概念英語(yǔ)第三冊(cè)逐句精講語(yǔ)言點(diǎn) 第16課 瑪麗有一頭小羔羊 (5)

　　It was true that he had just bought a lamb, he explained, but his lamb was black. Ashamed of having acted so rashly, Dimitri apologized to Aleko for having accused him. While they were talking it began to rain and Dimitri stayed in Aleko's house until the rain stopped.

　　13. It was true that he had just bought a lamb, he explained, but his lamb was black.

　　不錯(cuò)，他的確剛買了一只羔羊，阿列科解釋說(shuō)，但他的羔羊是黑色的。

　　語(yǔ)言點(diǎn):句子結(jié)構(gòu)分析:he explained為插入語(yǔ)。本句中含有主語(yǔ)從句，it是形式主語(yǔ)，that引導(dǎo)的部分是真正的主語(yǔ)，即“他剛買一只羔羊這件事是真的”。

　　14. Ashamed of having acted so rashly, Dimitri apologized to Aleko for having accused him.

　　迪米特里為自己的魯莽而感到不好意思，向阿列科道了歉，說(shuō)是錯(cuò)怪了他。

　　語(yǔ)言點(diǎn):句子結(jié)構(gòu)分析:ashamed of having acted為過(guò)去分詞短語(yǔ)作原因狀語(yǔ)，其中又含有一個(gè)現(xiàn)在分詞的完成時(shí)結(jié)構(gòu)，交代“感到不好意思”的原因，其省去的潛在主語(yǔ)是Dimitri,因?yàn)楹蟀刖湟渤霈F(xiàn)了Dimitri,所以為了避免重復(fù)，可以省略。

　　15. While they were talking it began to rain and Dimitri stayed in Aleko's house until the rain stopped.

　　就在他倆說(shuō)話的時(shí)候，天下起了雨，迪米特里便呆在阿列科家里避雨，一直等到雨停為止。

　　語(yǔ)言點(diǎn):句子結(jié)構(gòu)分析:句中的and連接兩個(gè)并列的分句，在前一個(gè)分句中，while引導(dǎo)時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)從句，說(shuō)明在同一時(shí)間段內(nèi)同時(shí)發(fā)生的兩件事情;在后一個(gè)分句中，until也引導(dǎo)時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)從句，連接先后發(fā)生的兩個(gè)動(dòng)作。
