語(yǔ)法
系動(dòng)詞連接了主語(yǔ)和補(bǔ)語(yǔ)。這種結(jié)構(gòu)中的補(bǔ)語(yǔ)是說(shuō)明主語(yǔ)性狀的,所以稱為主語(yǔ)補(bǔ)足語(yǔ)。系動(dòng)詞作為實(shí)義動(dòng)詞的一類,具有本身的意義,但是在起到橋梁作用的同時(shí),有些系動(dòng)詞會(huì)保持本身具有的意義,有些意義則會(huì)減弱或消失。例如:
1. I tasted the soup. ( taste 為及物動(dòng)詞,意思為“品嘗”。)
2. The soup tastes wonderful. (taste 為系動(dòng)詞,意思為“嘗起來(lái),吃起來(lái)”,意思基本未變。)
3. He went to the cinema yesterday evening. ( go 是不及物動(dòng)詞,意思為“去,走”。)
4. At the news, he went mad. (go為系動(dòng)詞,失去了“go”的原義,意為“變得”。)
另外,英語(yǔ)中還有一定數(shù)量的不及物動(dòng)詞,完全保留了本身的詞匯意義,同時(shí)又發(fā)揮著系動(dòng)詞的功能。它們與主語(yǔ)補(bǔ)足成分連用,所以這類詞被稱為“準(zhǔn)系動(dòng)詞”(quasi-linking verb or half-linking verb)。用于“S+Vi+Cs”(S代表主語(yǔ),Vi代表不及物動(dòng)詞,Cs代表主語(yǔ)補(bǔ)足語(yǔ))這一句式的動(dòng)詞都屬于這種用法。有時(shí),主語(yǔ)補(bǔ)足語(yǔ)不緊跟系動(dòng)詞,有可能被其它狀語(yǔ)成分隔開(kāi)。以“go”為例:
5. At twenty-four, Tom went half-bald. ( go 為系動(dòng)詞,失去原義。)
6. After midnight, Tom went home bored.( go 為準(zhǔn)系動(dòng)詞,保留原義,但同時(shí)又連接主語(yǔ)“Tom”和主補(bǔ)“bored”,“home”為副詞,表示地點(diǎn)狀語(yǔ)。)
用于這一句式的補(bǔ)語(yǔ)可以為各種形式,如名詞詞組(NP),形容詞詞組(AP),介詞詞組(Pr.P),和分詞短語(yǔ)(PP)等。現(xiàn)舉例如下:
Type1: S + Vi +Cs (NP)
