as
some
learners
might
be
inclined to think, simply to make the learning of the language more difficult, but to
express meanings. The grammatical devices of a language are not to be learned as

第一讲
语法的内容
总论
英语的基 本结构单位有词和句两个,
因而词的构造规则和句的构造规则就成为英语语法
的基本内容,分别 由词法和句法去研究。它们都是从语汇中抽象出来的规则。
词法的主要内容大致可分为两部分:
一是词素组合为词的规则和词的变化规则;
二是词的语法分类。
词的语法分类就是将词分成名词、
动词和形容词等的词类。
为什么要分词类?这是由于
在组词造句的时候,
词类与句子结构成分之间存在着有规律的对应关系,
要分析组词造句的规则,
必须将词分类,
使之在词和句之间架起一座桥梁。
能充当句子结构成分的词 类一般可
以分为名词、动词、
形容词和副词,
它们与句子成分之间存在着对应关系,< br>因而人们称它为
双轨制的语法结构:
主语、宾语
谓语
定语
状语
名词
动词
形容词
副词
一轨是以“主语——谓语”结构为框架的句法,其中的核心的规则就 是主、谓语
之间的一致关系;一轨是和句子结构成分有对应关系的名词、
动词、形容词的词类划 分,二
轨相互依存,因为名词是做主、宾语用的,动词是做谓语用的,形容词是做定语用的,副词
是做状语用的。
这种状况如用演戏作比喻,大致情况是:
“主语——谓语”框架好像是舞台,
名词、动词、形容词、副词好像是演员,而主语、谓语、宾语、定语、状语犹如演员所扮演
的角 色,而一个个具体的句子就犹如一出出戏剧;
舞台、
演员、角色和演出的戏剧在演出中
相互依存,
形成一个整体,缺一就演不成戏。
所以,
由两个基本结构单位构成的双轨是 相互
依存的,在造句的时候二轨合而为一,彼此拧成一股绳,造出一个个合格的句子。
词法和句法的构造规则虽然很多,但核心的规则只有一条,这就是一致关系所维
持的“主语——谓语” 的结构框架,
因为其他的规则都需要接受它的控制。
人们如果掌握了
这条总原则的精神 ,也就容易把握印欧语语法的基本脉络了。

1
词法、句法与语篇
语法是研究词形变化、句子结构及语篇组织的科学。
研究词形变化的部分称为词法< br>(morphology)
,如名词的数、格,动词的时态、语态都属
于词法范畴。研究 句子结构的部分成为称为句法
(syntax)
,如句子的成分、语序、句子结构、
句 子种类等,都属于句法范畴。
这两部分虽有不同内容,
中间的关系却非常紧密。
在词法 时
不可避免要涉及句法,
在句法中也有许多部分与词法有关。
因此在学习过程中,既要注意两
者之间的差异,又要注意两者之间的联系,机械地把它们分割开对学习是不利的。
传统的语法中不包括语篇部分。
所谓“语篇
text
”
,不论是口头形式或书面形式,都是一些意义相连的句子为达到一定
交际目的并通过一定手段连接起来 ,从而具有结构上的粘着性
(cohesion)
意义上的连贯性
(coherenc e)
的语义整体。
(
A text, spoken or written, is a structurally cohesive and semantically
coherent unit realized by a string of sentences for communicative purposes.
)句子是语法结构的
最高层次,也是构成语篇的基本语言单位,句子和语篇有着不可分割的联系。
语篇分析研究的是语篇的结构以及构成语篇性
(texture)
的机制
,
即语篇内部的衔接与连
贯。
2
语法与词汇
语法虽有一定的独立性,
但它与词汇是密不可分的。
语法指谴词造句的规律,
但它离
不开词汇。
语法体现在词汇中,
而词汇受语法制约。
语法好比是骨架,
而词汇好比是血肉;
语法也可说是一棵树的躯干,
词汇则是枝叶。
要形成有机 的躯体几根深叶茂的大树,
必须
把两者结合起来。
可以说每个词汇中都有语法问题,< br>语法体现在整个词汇之中。
孤立研究
语法不可能掌握语法,干巴巴的语法条文绝不代表语 法,语法要在活生生的语言中体现。
在英语入门阶段,
主要学词汇,
也学少 量语法,
到词汇积累到一定程度,
则应比较系
统地学习语法。
学语法可帮助更 快地积累词汇和掌握词汇,
提高语言学习的自觉性。
不论
是加强语言理解力或语言的使 用能力,
语法都可以发挥重要的作用。
比较理想的做法是把
语法和词汇交叉学习,经过多次反复,
才可更深入掌握语言。
学词汇他体上是加强感性认
识,
学 语法则是提高理性认识。
只有把两者结合起来才能真正掌握语言,
才能学到有血有
肉的 语言。
3
词类
(parts of speech)
英语中的词可根据词义、句法作用和形式特征,分为十大类(见下表)
,称为词类,
在这十种词类中,前六种可以在句子中独立担任成分,称为实意词
(notional wor ds)
。介
词、连词和冠词都不能独立在句子中担任任何成分,称为虚词
(form
words)
。感叹词一般不
构成句子成分,可以看作特殊的一类。除了这十大类之外 ,还有表示肯定与否定的
yes
和
no
,还有不定式前的小品词
(particle) to
。实意 词大多数在句子中重读,只有助词,情态动词
和动词
be
以及人称代词等在某些情况下 弱读,而虚词一般都不重读。
4
词类
名词
代词
数词
英语名称
Noun (n.)
Pronoun (pron.)
Numeral (num.)
人或事物的名称
代替名词、数词等
表示数目与顺序
表示人或事物
性质或特征
动词
副词
冠词
Verb (v.)
Adverb (adv.)
Article (art.)
表示动作或状态
表示动作特征或性状特征
用在名词前,
帮助说明意义
介词
Preposition
(prep.)
连词
Conjection (conj.)
用在名词、代词前说
明与别的词的关系
用来连接词与词
或句与句
感叹词
Interjection
(Interj.)
4
限定词
关于词类的区分,大 多数语法学家按上述分发,但有一些英国语法学家把一些词
归在一起,成为限定词
(deter miners),
主要指用在名词前帮助说明词义的词,如
冠词
a, an, the
物主代词,如
my, your, his
用作定语的某些不定代词,如
some, any, many, little, few, both, each.
用作定语的指示代词、疑问代词、关系代词等,如
this, what, whose, whatever.
而美国语言学家不作这种区分,用作定语的代词他们干脆称为形容词,如
This
is Helen
‘
s room.
(代词)
This
room is mine.
(形容词)
You can have
either
of them.
(代词)
You can have
either
one.
(形容词)
这样处理在字典中也比较方便。但从实用角度看,统统称为代词也未尝不可。

作用
例词
girl, history
they, many
nine, third
brave, small
形容词
Adjective (adj.)
hear, know
nicely, very
a(n), the
for, from
and, if
表示说话时的表情或口气
oh, ah
5
分清词类至关重要
要学好英语,第一件事就是分清 词类。每学一个词都要知道它属于哪个词类,是名词还
是动词,
这样区分
至关重要。< br>各种词类都有自己的特点,只有知道一个词属于哪个词类,
才
能正确使用它。同时还应弄 清各个句子成分应由哪类词来担任,例如:
主语、宾语多由名词担任:
The
success
of the play has been a great encouragement to him. (
作主语
)
She wished him
success
.
(作宾语)
The experiment has
succeeded
.
(作谓语)
He is a
successful
writer.
(作定语)
He worked
successfully
.
(作状语)
从这些句子中可以看出,不分清词类就
寸步难行
。
6
同一个词可用作多种词类
同一个词只用作一个词类的情况是相对较少的,多数词都可兼作不同词类,例如:
It is easy to be wise
after
an event.
I will tell them the news
after
you leave.
A moment
afte
r there was a knock at his door.
In
after
years I became familiar with it.
He again did
double
work that day.
Jane and Tom won the mixed
doubles
.
The price of vegetables has been
doubled
because of the weather.
Many things now cost
double
what they did a year ago.
In the middle was a
round
table.
She looked
round
her in astonishment.
The children gathered
round
to hear the story.
Charles was on his
rounds
.
We
round
our lips to say oo.
7
词尾
有些词从词尾上就可看出属于哪个词类,
有些词尾是名词的标志,另一些是副词的标志,
例如:
名词词尾
–
er (fighter), -or (sailor),
–
ist (artist)
-ant (assistant),
–
ee(employee)
-ian (librarian),
–
tion (action)
-ment (government),
-dom (wisdom), -ness (eagerness),
-ism (terrorism), -ship (friendship,
-ure (pleasure), -ty (cruelty),
-ence (reference)
6
形容词词尾
–
ful (careful), -less (careless)
-ish (selfish), -ive (active)
-ous (famous), -able (drinkable)
--ible (audible), -y (easy)
-ese (Chinese, -al (natural)
-ent (different), -ant (important
动词词尾
–
ize (realize), -en (strengthen)
-ify (simplify)
副词词尾
–
ly (luckily), -ward(s) (homeword)
-wise (likewise)
数词词尾
–
teen (fifteen), -ty (thirty),
-th (fourth)
8
词缀、词义与词性
大 多数前缀不影响词根的词性,
而仅仅对词根的意义加以修饰,
表示否定、
相反、
贬低、
向背、程度、时间、方位等意义。
但英语中有几个前缀,如
be-, en/em-, a-
等,并不改变词根的基本意义,而是引起词性
的变化。如:
belittle, befriend, benumb
(使
…
失去知觉,
使
…
麻木)
, enforce, encourage, enslave, enable,
embody, empower, asleep, ablaze
(燃烧,着火)
英语的后缀具有较强的语法作用,
加在词根上构成派生词,
并不改变词根的基本意义,
而是改变了词性。
但也有一些带后缀的派生词仅仅改变词义,而不改变词性。
例如:
Gangster
(
匪徒,
歹徒)
, boyhood, impressionism, kingdom, spoonful, Londoner, machinery,
matting
(粗糙编织物)
, booklet, idealism, friendship, drudgery
(繁重、乏味的工作)
。
一个词缀附加与某一个单词,有两方面特点:
(
1
)某一特定词缀仅与某种词性的词组合,
如
-ative
一般只与动词组合
comparative, informative, preventive, talkative
-ee
只能与动词组合成“被动者”
:
appointee,
employee,
examinee,
invitee,
interviewee,
trainee
-able
也只能与动词组合构成形容词
dependable, movable, adjustable;
(
2
)加上某一词缀后的词属于同一词类,例如:
centralize,
economize,
industrialize,
modernize,
normalize,
realize;
airproof,
fireproof,
lightproof, rainproof, soundproof, waterproof
9
语法层次
(Grammatical hierarchy)
It is usually assumed that the grammar of the English language is organized into five ranks:
the
sentence,
the
clause,
the
phrase,
the
word
and
the
morpheme.
Let
‘
s
look
at
Quirk
‘
s
categorization
first.
According
to
Quirk
et
al.(1985),
units
of
grammar
may
be
placed
in
a
hierarchy of potential size or extensibility as follows:
7
HIGHEST UNIT:
sentences
, which consist of one or more
clauses,
which consist of one or more
phrases
, which consist of one or more
words
, which consist of one or more
LOWEST UNIT:
morohemes
.
By
clause,
Quirk
et al.
include
the
finite
clause
: a
clause
whose
verb
element
is
finite
(such
as
―
takes
‖
,
―
took
‖
,
―
can work
‖
,
―
has worked
‖
,
―
is writing
‖
,
―
was written
‖
), the
nonfinite clause
: a
clause whose verb element is nonfinite (such as
―
to work
‖
,
―
having worked
‖
and
―
taken
‖
) and the
verbless clause
: a clause that does not have a verb element, but is nevertheless capable of being
analyzed into clause elements such as
―
although always helpful
‖
in the sentence: Although always
helpful,
he
was
not
much
liked.
And
they
divide
sentences
into
the
simple
and
the
multiple
.
A
simple sentence consists of a single independent clause and a multiple sentence contains one or
more clauses as its immediate constituents. Multiple sentences are either
compound
or
complex
. In
a compound sentence the immediate constituents are two or more coordinate clauses while in a
complex
sentence
one
or
more
of
its
elements
are
realized
by
a
subordinate
clause.
It
must
be
pointed out that in their classification a sentence with a clause functioning within a phrase (such as
―
You can borrow the car that belongs to my sister
‖
) is regarded as a simple sentence and that a
nonfinite construction (which has a nonfinite verb as its verb element) is considered as a clause.
However, in other traditional grammars, the former is usually viewed as a complex sentence and
the latter a phrase.

分句
“分句=名词词组 +动词词组”的提法与“分句=主语+谓语”的提法是一致的:前
者是就分句结构形式而言;后者是就分 句的表意功能而言
(
一个词的语法功能指的是这个词
在句法结构里所能占据的语法位置
)
。分句之所以不同于词组在于前者具有述谓性,而后者
没有这种特性。
正因 为如此,
所谓分句应该是一种主谓结构,
这是分句之所以谓分句的本质
特征。

C.
简单分句:
仅包括一个主谓结构的分句。
上述各句的斜体部分都是简单分句;
单独出
现的简单分句也就是“简单句”
。
D.
复杂分句:
带有其他主谓结构作为分 句成分的分句;
一个单独出现的复杂分句也就是
“复
杂句”
。

(从属复杂分句)
E.
主句和分句
主句是相对于从句而言。
“从句”即从属分句,
可以直接从属于另一个分句,作为分句
成分,也可以从属于一个短语,作为短 语的一部分,例如:
the
book
my
father
bought
yesterday
中
my father bought yesterday
是名词短语的修饰语
(定语)
,
属于名词短语的一部分。带有从属分句作为自己成分的分句便是主句,充当主句的一个成分的分句便是从句。
主句和从句 的关系是相对的
:
在一个复杂结构中是主句的,
在另一个复杂结构中则又可能
是从句,例如:
He complained that what you said was not true.

限定分句、非限定分句、无动词分句
由于分句被看作为一种主谓结构,< br>一个分句的谓语如果是以限定动词
(谓语动词)
为中
心的动词词组表示,
它便是
限定分句
;
如果充当谓语的动词词组中心词是个非限定动词
(非谓语动词)
,这便是
非限定分句
;如果作为分句谓语的动词词组中心词没有表示出 来,而仅
保留被省略的动词的连带成分(通常是主语补语)
,那便是
无动词分句
,如,
I signed the paper
to get the license.
Renee bought a book
to read on the plane
.
It is forbidden
to smoke in this room
.
Can
‘
t you recall
telling me that story last week
?
The man
,

obviously could not see clearly.
Leaving the room
, he tripped over the mat.
Covered with confusion
, they apologized abjectly.
(绝望无助,怯懦)
The discussion completed,
the Chairman adjourned the meeting for an hour.
11
一个主谓结构如果不带任何形式的动词短语作谓语动词便是“无动词分句”
。
Hungry and exhausted
, the climbers returned.
Confident of the justice of their cause,
they agreed to put their case before the arbitration panel.
One of the most popular tourist sites in Italy
, Pompei was viewed by nearly two million visitors
last year.
Christmas then only days away,
the family was pent up with excitement.
(
5
)句子
由一个或一个以上构成的语法单位就是句子。
简单句:只包含一个主谓结构而且各个成分均由短语构成的句子。
The students have made better grades in the past few weeks.
The boy can stay in the room only for a few minutes.
如果构成分句成分的短语本身带有从属分句,那么这个句子仍然是简单句。
The students I teach have made better grades in the past few weeks.
但若某个句子成分直接由从属分句表示,那么这种句子便不再是简单句而是复杂句。
The students would have made better grades
if they had studied hard.
The boy can stay in the room
so long as he keeps quiet.
What he said
is not true.
I didn
‘
t understand
what he meant
.
两个或两个以上的简单句由并列连词或其他并列手段连接起来便构成并列句。
Miss Lindstorm came to the party, but Mr and Mrs Sherman did not.
Most of us were in the hall, the doors had been closed, and the latecomers had to wait outside.
一个并列句,如果包含一个或一个以上的复杂句作为并列成分,这便是并列复杂句。
They watched television and enjoyed themselves immensely, but we couldn
‘
t see the program
because our television was broken.
It

句子成分
句子是表达思想的基本单位, 就象家庭是社会的基本单位一样。只有完整的句子才能
表达完整的思想。句子由单词组成,
但组 成时要遵循一定的规律,
这就是语法。违反了这些
规律,语言即不正确,也就不能正确地表达思 想。因此,每句话都牵涉到语法。就英语书面
语而言,每句话的第一个字母要大写,句末应有句号,若是 问句,末尾应加问号。

五、
