莫泊桑说:人生活在希望之中,一个希望破灭了或实现了,就会有新的希望产生。新春就是新的企盼、新的希望,新的征程,新的收获。新学期,新起点,新面貌,让我们憧憬更美好的明天,让我们再一次踏上征途!
新学期到了,那么大家一定会有新的打算,我的打算又是什么呢?其实,我的打算和别人一样,就是要在新的学期里努力学习,认真听老师讲课,上课要积极发言。不仅如此,我还希望自己能在毕业上考出好成绩。我知道,要做到这些是很难很难的,但是只要你坚持到底,永不退缩,那这些又将变得非常容易。
我想,人的希望是会随时改变的,不同的时间,不同的情况下,我们每个人的希望也是不同的。在新学期里,我的希望是永远记住母校,因为这毕竟是我生活了六年的小学啊!同时,我也希望能在这最后的半年里为我亲爱的母校做一点事情,留下一些美好的东西。我想,我一定会用实际行动来做这件事的。人在一生中,不管他成为了什么,是名人,或是伟人,还是极平凡的普通人,都会永远记住自己的母校,都对他有着非常深刻的感情,我也要做这样的人。
我知道,每个人心里想的是不一样的,因为,人各有志,目标不同。如今我渐渐长大了,我的新目标不是做什么伟人,也不想当什么艺人,更不是成为科学巨人。而是长大后考上一座较好的大学,找到一份稳定的工作。在自己平凡的岗位上为国家,为社会作出不平凡的事,贡献出属于自己的一份力量,这就已经足够了。
新学期里人人都有新打算,你一定也和我一样吧!让我们大家在新学期里携起手来,共同朝着自己的目标前进吧!
个漫长的寒假已过去,迎来的是一个美好的春天。在这万物复苏的时刻,新的一学期又开始了,迎着早晨的第一缕阳光,我们又重新回到美丽的校园,开始了新一学期的征途。
在过去的征程中,曾拥有过欢笑,拥有个阳光,这都已成为永远的记忆,现在加上一把锁将它封锁起来,摆在我们面前的\'一切都是新的,看呀?新的学期正在向我们招手。经过五年的锻炼,我们不都是一个个战士,抹去心灵的灰尘,拿上我们的武器,整装待发,新学期的目标向我们冲击!
我们又迎来了新学期,在每一个全新的起点,我们每个人都会有一种期盼:明天的我要更精彩。因此,我一定在对美好未来的憧憬中,展现着自己迎接新学期的新气象。今天的老师,同学们都把自己打理得漂漂亮亮,办公室。教室都打扫得干干净净,这样就营造了一种生机勃勃。祥和向上的新气象。相信在这种新气象的感染和鼓舞下。我一定要在新学期取得新进步。
在新学期里,我有一个新的目标--不要做语言的巨人,要成为行动的主人!我知道了成功不是靠梦想来实现,而是靠自己的行动……
当然,在新的学期中,在学习要有新的成绩,这就要不懈地努力!付出一份努力才会换取一份收获。学习并不是一种兴趣,而是一种责任,是我应该做而且必须做好的事情,同时学习必定会有负担。没有苦的。累的过程,就不会有进步和提升,无论是过去,还是未来不都这样的道理吗?我把自己的喜悦,悲伤都化作前进的助力和动力,就会因此不断克服困难取得新进步。成功中是我们的喜悦,成功背后是我们辛勤的汗水,没有耕耘就哪有收获 没有付出哪有所得。我即将升入初中了,就更应该好好珍惜这段宝贵的时光充实自己,把自己的理想变为势不可当的动力!
书山有路勤为径,学海无涯苦作舟。向着自己的目标,奋力前进! 新的一学期又开始了,开始了新的旅程,杨启新的风帆吧!我要加油,在绚丽多彩的小学生活中,好好学习,这是冲刺,面向新的征程,也许会有坎坷,艰险, 我一定会战胜一切困难避过所有的浅滩到达成功的彼岸。

一简述
1. 当过去分词在句末时,不管有无逗号,都是就近修饰名词;
2.现在分词在句末时,无逗号是就近修饰的名词的定语;
3.当现在分词在句尾且前有逗号时,修饰邻近句子的\'主语,做主语的伴随状语或做句子的伴随结果.因此不能用句尾现在分词修饰前面句尾的名词. 所以OG127说C选项:"the phrasehaving been assigned...is uncertain in reference,making the sentence unclear."-->就是说这个现在分词本来是应该修饰前面的employee的,却变成了修饰主语governments了. (另外在GMAT里,having been done的用法错误,应直接用done
避免上述错误的方法:所修饰的名词在句尾用定语从句修饰--OG127正确选项B (而不用加逗号的现在分词修饰.其实分词是定语从句的省略形式,在句中无逗号分词(注意是无逗号的,有逗号的在句中有歧义就比定语从句简洁还有 OG120也是同样道理:修饰句尾名词,正确选项A用定语从句.E选项的句尾现在分词错误.
4.当现在/过去分词在句中且前没有逗号,修饰前面紧邻名词;
5.当现在/过去分词在句中且前后都有逗号,有歧义:1修饰前面紧邻的名词,2向后修饰后面句子的主语.
这种结构在GMAT肯定错,如果修饰某句主语,则避免将该分词置于以名词结尾的句后.避免方式:1用定语从句/介词短语明确修饰对象.2可将分词提到句首,所修饰主语及所在句子紧跟其后-->形成句首分词修饰句子主语.见OG179
6.在前面有多个名词如名词1+介词+名词2结构,而要用分词修饰名词1时,为避免歧义要重复名词1即用同位语结构:名词1+介词+名词2,名词1+分词.见OG208
二.
1、doing/done,SVO 注意分词的逻辑主语与S一致
2、介词/连词+doing/done,SVO 也要注意分词逻辑主语与S一致
3、S,doing/done,V 分词作定语修饰主语(前后一对逗号隔开,相当于定语从句)
注意:如果出现: “名词,doing,名词”,则会有分词前后的修饰歧义,如179DE,245E
4、SVO doing 分词作定语修饰主语,如 96AC,121C,146E,222A,234B,237E
5、SVO,doing
A、分词优先作状语
1)修饰主语(与分词在句首一样,注意逻辑主语),如 33B,39C,44B,120E,163D,256B
2)修饰主句动作,如 78BD,119B,154A,259A
B、其次作定语,但没有定语从句清晰,会有修饰歧义,如 253DE,(“,including”除外 249)
6、SVO done 分词作定语修饰O(同4)
7、SVO,done
A、分词作状语修饰S,如 大全558
B、分词作定语修饰O,如 127A(分词相当于形容词 253A)
some people base on sth是绝对错误的。但是有sb. base sth. on sth.的用法. 三.
1.SVO+doing,无逗号的情况下doing是针对宾语的动作,96AC(OG says : assuring针对主语有问题,121C,146E,222A(OG says: enabling很好的修饰了宾语,234B,237E -------以上证明了ets的偏好,svo+doing修饰主语是模糊的,修饰宾语是清晰的
2.SVO, doing有逗号,33B,39C(Og says:protecting很好的
解释了主语的行为,44B,120E(Og says:错误选项有可能混淆的指代主语而不是逻辑上正确的宾语,163D(Og says:sleeping正确的修饰了主语,256B --------以上证明了在Og中svo,doing的doing多指代主语
3.svo,doing有逗号,78BD(doing指代了前面整个句子的行为,119B(同前,154A(*,259A(同前------------以上证明了Og中svo,doing的doing多指代前面的整个句子
四.例子
产生participle phrases原点是为了to reduce wordiness by replacing longer adverbial or relative clauses,另外要强调的重要讯息不会写成participle phrases,因为分词修饰语属于次等地位(The
modifier is subordinate to the main clause。也就是说A….and B…(A与B一样重要,如果A…V..,B...Ving (就重要性而言A>B
简单一句:分词构句是主要句子的意义延伸。
目前我看到有几种句意:
1. 因果(★★★★★
2. 补述:解释某事(★★★、描述状态并列或伴随(★★、纯举例
participle
phrases如此具困扰性是因为可以改写的来源多
1.由adj. clauses (如who, which开头可改写成分词词组。考题中可分形容词子句限制性、非限制性改分词的考法。
2. 副词子句(有连接词开头的也可改分词词组,所以有因果关系或时间关系,单纯就时间关系看,可以有先后或同时,会有动作是伴随或是并列关系。
3.当三个以上的动词用and相连时,后面的部分也改写成分词(V, Ving... and Ving...。
我看过的说法中,觉得Manhatan GMAT备考网站,里面指导员所讲的分词概念不错,但是他的目的在卖书,所以讲的真的不多。
1.当分词构句放句首,修饰后面句子的主词。前几天看到有人发帖的整理,讲到分词在句首,表示此动作先于主要句子的动作,讲的真好。
2.当分词构句不放在句首时:
if
there's NO COMMA before a participle, then the participle creates an adjective phrase that modifies the noun immediately
preceding.
if
there's a COMMA before a participle, then the participle creates an adverb phrase that modifies the action of the preceding
clause.
PS:逗号的产生可能是插入语,遇到插入语可以跳过不看,不代表分词修饰这个插入语。
判断上抓前句的动词与主词,如果用中文想就是「此主体这个动作的行为导致或表示.....」(to modify the action of。而且不可以只有思考主词或动词。 如果遇到前句有数个动词,以找最近的动词为主,譬如V1 to V2,分词构句修饰V2
3.
participle (V-ing after the comma can not modify the subject of the preceding clause's
noun.
這個考「什么情况下不可以改成分词构句?」除了需要有对等连接词的句子,不可改分词构句,因为句意重要性会被改变外,
打逗号的Ving分词,无法修饰逗号之前的名词,所以非限制的形容词子句最好不要改分词Ving构句(有7個考題,但是Ved分词例外(有两个考题。
按要求改写句子知识点梳理
一、概述
按要求改写句子主要考查学生对句子结构的掌握以及用不同句型表达同一意思的能力。考查所涉及到的句子类型有一般疑问句、否定句、反意疑问句、选择疑问句、对划线部分提问、感叹句、保持原句意思、合并成一句、简单句和复合句之间的互换以及改为被动语态等。
二、解题时需注意的几个要点
1、时态:不同的时态相对应的助动词
一般现在时:谓语动词用原形(主语为第三人称单数时,动词加s或es,变否定句、疑问句时助动词为do或does)
一般过去时:谓语动词用过去式,变否定句、疑问句时助动词为did.
现在完成时:助动词have/has+动词的过去分词
过去完成时:助动词had+动词的过去分词
一般将来时:will/be going to +动词原形
过去将来时:would/was or were going to +动词原形
现在进行时:am/is/are+动词的现在分词
过去进行时:was/were+动词的现在分词
2、语态:主动语态变为被动语态的谓语结构
一般现在时:am/is/are+动词的过去分词
一般过去时:was/were+动词的过去分词
一般将来时:will be+动词的过去分词
情态动词:can/may/must/need等情态动词+be++动词的过去分词
3、改反意疑问句时注意hardly, never, seldom, few, little, no等词表达的是否定意义,变反意疑问句时用肯定形式。
4、在合并句子时,有些连词如not only…but also…, neither…nor…, either…or…是就近原则,连接两个主语时动词形式取决于与动词邻近的主语。而both…and…连接两个主语时,主语是复数。
5、简单句和复合句之间的互换常见的有:带有疑问词的宾语从句改为特殊疑问词+to+动词原形的不定式;结果状语从句so…that…改为enough to或too…to…的简单句。
6、保持原句意思改写句子时注意时态不变。

1一次无意中,我从书桌中翻出了一本积满灰尘的相册,在第二排,我找到了你,我的同桌,顿时一首歌回荡在耳边,那首《同桌的你》。
2“你是否还会想起,问我借半块橡皮?”记得你是个健忘的人,经常不带橡皮,老是问我借,害得一次考试后老师找我谈话,说我和你用橡皮打小抄,可怜的我被老师罚站一节课。幸好你不是那种忘恩负义之人,下课后会递上一块口香糖,使我在苦中找到甜蜜。
3“你是否还会想起,猜不出问题的你?”记得你的成绩如此优秀,但你是个不折不扣的地理盲。语文课上生龙活虎的你,在地理课上简直成了一只小鸡,蜷缩了起来,连举手的勇气也没有,可老师偏偏喜欢请你发言。哎,也真是难为了同学们的耳朵了———你说英国和美国是邻国,中国和日本海间隔着印度洋,甚至你说全世界只有两大洲,亚洲和非洲正因为有了你的“胡言乱语”,平时我最喜欢的课,除了体育课,就是地理课了。
4哦,对了。说到体育课,你可真厉害。外表看上去,那么漂亮的女孩子,竟是个体育狂热爱好者,100米短跑15秒1搞定,立定跳远超过了所有的男同学,因此有这么多男同学愿意和你踢球。你和我,便成了球场上的两个箭头,弄得对方守门员时时手忙脚乱。记得吗?上次我们踢了(2班一个6比0,你还大为不爽呢!
5“谁把你的长发盘起”你有着一头乌黑、漂亮的长发,但你却不去整理,也许这与你的性格有关吧,但你不至于让我这样一个堂堂男子汉为你梳头,幸好还很早没有人看到,不然,又要到办公室报到了。
6毕业典礼那天,你哭了。因为你要远行去日本念书。我们最后一次坐在一起了,毕竟5年了。我也忍不住流下了眼泪。当时气氛真的好奇怪,我强忍着内心的不舍,终于道出了一句缓和气氛的话:“这下你终于知道中国和日本之间是什么海了吧?”你笑了,笑得多么灿烂啊!
7同桌,你现在到底怎样了?我好想知道,你的体育成绩仍那么优秀吗?你的地理成绩有所长进吗?我现在真想把《同桌的你》这首歌唱给你听,回味那难忘的小学时光。
