Unit 4 Our World句式精讲精练【句式精讲】1.What are you thinking about? (1) think about意为“考虑；就……思考”。此时think about与think of意思相近，可以互换。例如：Are you thinking about the question? 你在考虑那个问题吗？What are you thinking about? 你在想什么？ (2) What do/did sb. think of…? 这是询问某人对某事（人）的看法常用的句型，意为“……认为……怎么样？”，答语往往是对某物（人）的评价。例如：— What do you think of the book written by him?你认为他写的那本书怎么样？— It is very good. 很好。(3) What do you think of…?可以和How do you like…?互换。例如：What do you think of the film? = How do you like the film? 你认为这部电影怎么样？2.But now they have less and less land to live on.本句中less是little的比较级，less and less意为“越来越少”。形容词/副词的比较级＋and＋形容词/副词的比较级，这种句型表示事物本身程度的逐渐增长，意思是“越来越……”。 例如：　 　longer and longer 越来越长；　 more and more beautiful 越来越漂亮。 Summer is coming. The weather is getting hotter and hotter. 夏天来了，天气变得越来越热了。【拓展】另两种表示比较的句型：（1）“The ＋形容词/副词的比较级＋主语＋谓语，the ＋形容词/副词的比较级＋主语＋谓语”。这个句型是形容词/副词比较级的叠加用法，表示一方的程度随着另一方的程度平行增长，意思是“越……，（就）越……”。例如：　　The more careful you are, the fewer mistakes you’ll make.第 1 页


　　你越小心，出现的问题就越少。（2）as+形容词/副词的原级+as... 这个句型表示同级比较，即比较的结果是一样的，在as和as的中间用形容词或副词的原级。在否定句中既可以用not as...as...，也可以用not so...as...，表示前者不如后者。例如：　 He is as tall as my brother. 他和我的弟弟一样高。　 It is not as/ so warm as it was yesterday. 今天不如昨天暖和。3. Because animals are our friends. They make us happy.make + sb.+ 形容词，make是谓语动词，sb.是make的宾语，后面的形容词在此作宾语补足语。例如：Rainy days make me sad. 雨天让我很悲伤。What he said made the teacher angry. 他说的话让老师很生气。【拓展】（1）make +sb.+ 过去分词，此处的过去分词相当于形容词作宾补。例如：Waiting for him in the rain made me annoyed. 在雨中等他让我很烦。（2）make + sb.+动词原形，此处的动词原形也叫省略to的不定式作宾补。例如： Sad movies always make me cry. 伤感的电影经常让我哭泣。Loud music makes her want to dance. 高声的音乐让她想跳舞。（3）be made to+动词原形，此处是make的被动语态，要还原动词不定式的to，即bemade to do sth.意为“被使做某事”。例如： The boss made him work for 15 hours a day.→He was made to work for 15 hours a day by the boss. 老板使他一天工作15个小时。4. It’s a little cheaper.a little可以用作副词，修饰形容词、副词、形容词或副词的比较级、动词以及介词短语，表示“有点，稍稍”。例如：He is a little tired. 他有点累了。You should walk a little faster. 你应该走快一点。第 2 页
