11Pieces of the palaces that had been hidden before the Nazis came could now be used to rebuild the city and its culture.在法西斯来之前被藏起来的宫殿残迹现在可以被用来重建这座城市以及它的文化。
[问]请问这个句子怎么理解?
[答]这是一个多重复合句,定语从句that had been hidden …came 修饰the palace,而定语从句中又含有一个时间状语从句before the n azis came.
be used to是被动结构形式“被用于”
短语辨析:used to 过去常常,过去曾经
例如:He used to be a thief.
名题精选:My hometown is not what it ____.
A. was used to be B、used to be
C. is used to be D.has used to be
答案:B。“be used to do ”是“被用于”,而根据题意应是“家乡不再是过去的样子”,所以应选B。
12It was difficult to save the palaces and buildings without destroying their old beauty.挽救这些宫殿以及其他建筑而又不破坏它们原有的风格却不容易。
[问]句中不定式是什么用法?
[答]这是一个动词不定式作主语的句子。在日常英语中,特别是当主语较长而谓语较短时,常用it作形式主语,而将动词不定式放在谓语部分后边。本句中it是形式主语,后边to save the palaces and…old beauty是真正的主语。
例如:It is human to want something better.精益求精是人的特性。
名题精选:Is _____ necessary to complete the design before National Day?(89年高考题)
A. this B.that C.it D.he
答案:C。真正的主语是不定式“to complete…”,全句为“主系表”结构,要填的是形式主语。只有it才能作形式主语或形式宾语。
