高中英语语法省略句

Ellipsis is a phenomenon in English sentences where a word。phrase。or even a clause or main clause can be omitted in order to make the sentence more concise while maintaining its meaning.

There are different types of ellipsis。such as the n of the subject or predicate。where only the minor elements are kept.

For example。"Beautiful day" can be shortened to just "day" and still convey the same meaning。Another example is "Pity we live so far from the sea," which can be shortened to "It is a pity we live so far from the sea."

Predicate ellipsis can be seen in the sentence "Losing her new bicycle made Mary so upset." Here。the predicate "made Mary so upset" is used without repeating the subject "losing her new bicycle."

Adverbial clauses can also be shortened。such as "Seen from the plane。the house looks like tiny toys." Here。the adverbial clause "when it is seen from the plane" is omitted.

When using an infinitive。such as in "The boy wanted to ride his bicycle in the street。but his mother told him not to," the infinitive "not to ride his bicycle in the street" is used instead of repeating the subject.

Finally。in cases where the infinitive is followed by the perfect tense。such as "I was going to come yesterday。but I had an unexpected visitor," the auxiliary verb "have" should be retained。Similarly。when the infinitive is followed by the verb "be," the verb "be" should also be retained.

可省略从句中的主语和be动词的某种形式。

e.g。She is taller than (he is).

He can run faster than (I can).

Ⅰ、省略主语和be动词的用法

在状语从句中，如果从句的主语和主句的主语一致，且从句的谓语含有be动词的某种形式，那么可以同时省略从句的

主语和be动词的某种形式。比如，当when或while引导的时间状语从句中，我们可以省略从句中的主语和be动词的某种形式，例如：“Do be careful when (you are) crossing the street.” 当然，如果从句的主语和主句的主语不一致，我们只能省略从句中的be动词形式。比如，“He was happy。though/although (he was) poor.”

在比较状语从句中，如果不同的主语进行比较，也可以省略从句中的主语和be动词的某种形式。例如，“She is taller than (he is).”

General rules for ellipsis in clauses include omitting the predicate in subordinate clauses and omitting the subject and predicate in the subordinate clause if they match those in the main clause。For example。"He is taller than his brother (is)."

In adverbial clauses。such as those starting with "if," ellipsis may include omitting "it is," "that is," or "there is/are." For instance。"If possible/necessary。this old temple will be rebuilt."

In relative clauses。the relative pronoun "that," "which," or "whom" can be omitted when it acts as the object and does not

come after a n。"The man you visited last night is my grandpa." "In which" or "that" can also be omitted after "way" when it is used as a manner adverbial clause。"I don't like the way you treat the girl."

In the subjunctive mood。"if" and "should" can be omitted。In nal clauses with "were," "had," or "should," "if" can be omitted and inverted to form an inverted sentence。"Were I a teacher。I would be strict with my students." In clauses with verbs like "suggest," "insist," "order," or "require," the verb can be followed by a clause with "should" + verb。which can be omitted。"The doctor suggested he try to lose weight."

Finally。the infinitive marker "to" can also be omitted in certain cases.

Sure。what do you need?

2、I saw him running towards the n。but I didn't have time to talk to him.
