长难句（纸老虎）

英语句子特点:只有一个主干谓语,可以出现其他动词但要用连词连接或变成非谓语

  • 特殊标点(逗号，冒号，分号，破折号)
    I’m now convinced that the seceet of why French kidfs rarely whine or collapse into tantrums(—or at least do so less than American kids—) is that they’ve developed the internal resources to cope with frustration.

  • 找谓语(时态、语态、情态)
    区别：非谓语（to do/do/dong）单独出现的时候不是谓语!
    难点1: 动词一般过去时，和非谓语的偶去分词长得一样(v+ed 前+be 如果语序通顺就是非谓语)
    Teenagers climbed dozens of flights of stairs to deliver water amd food to elderly people trapped in powerless high-rise buildings

    难点2:有写从属连词引导的少量状语从句，与主句的主语一直，可能从句会省略主语和助动词（频率相对比较少）

WE convet their food ，their wine and their confounding ability to stay slim while consuming both…but…

Apple’s digital wallet, if widely adopted, could usher in a new era of ease and convenience.

  • 根据公式找连词(注意这里连词一定要是连接句子的)
    并列连词:and/or/but/so/not…but
    从属连词：wh-/that/if/even if/even though/although/as/since 等等
    The American patent system was designed to encourage creation and use of new technology.
    难点:连词省略:宾从（第一个不缺意思成分的that）定从(指代先行词做宾语)
    You might celebrate the freedom technology could bring to 2.5 billion in the world.
    The man (who/that) you met yestetday is my English teacher
