如何理解too much of a... 有網(wǎng)友在“答疑中心”問(wèn)(www.hz123456.com/guestbook/Guest_Reply.asp?TopicID=1667): 有這樣一句話: He was too much of a coward to tell the truth even to his closest friend. 這里面的much of作何解釋呢? 本問(wèn)題由本站特約作者 ▲too much of a…to do sth 是英語(yǔ)中的一個(gè)固定表達(dá),是too…to…句式與much of a…句式的混合用法。其中的too…to…大家比較熟悉,但對(duì)much of a … 則相對(duì)不那么熟悉。 much of a…雖然有時(shí)也用于肯定句,但更多是用于否定句,如與not, too, never等否定詞或是含有否定意義的詞語(yǔ)連用。對(duì)于初學(xué)者來(lái)說(shuō),可以簡(jiǎn)單地將too much of a 理解為too,而將其后的名詞理解為形容詞,即將整個(gè)結(jié)構(gòu)理解為“太……”,如: 將too much of a coward理解為“太膽怯”; 將too much of a risk理解為“太危險(xiǎn)”或“太冒險(xiǎn)”; 將too much of a gentleman 理解為“太紳士”; …… ▲關(guān)于too much of a 的例句: Flouting the law was too much of a risk. 藐視法律太危險(xiǎn)了。——摘自《新牛津英語(yǔ)雙解大詞典》 I find this town too much of a backwater. 我覺(jué)得這個(gè)城鎮(zhèn)太閉塞。摘自《牛津高階英漢雙解詞典》 There is too much of a competitive element in the sales department. 銷售部門競(jìng)爭(zhēng)太大。——摘自《牛津英語(yǔ)搭配詞典》 ▲關(guān)于too much of a...to do sth 的例句: I was too much of a coward to argue. 我太膽怯,沒(méi)有反駁。——摘自《牛津中階英語(yǔ)詞典》 She’s too much of a conformist to wear silly clothes. 她很古板,不穿那些奇裝異服。——摘自《牛津高階英漢雙解詞典》 He was too much of a gentleman to ask them for any money. 他太紳士氣了,不好意思向他們要錢。——摘自《牛津英語(yǔ)搭配詞典》 |
