    一、独立主格结构
    独立主格结构是一种复合结构,在句中作状语,分别表示时间,原因,条件,方式、伴随状况以及对比、补充说明等。在独立主格结构中,名词或代词同其后的分词、不定式、形容词、副词、介词短语等在逻辑上有主谓关系。
    1.名词或代词+分词:
    a.It being Sunday, you needn't go to school.

    7.With/without + 复合宾语:
    1)with+名词+分词

    a.If something is moving, with nothing touching it, it will go on forever,coasting at a uniform speed in a straight line.
       正在运动的某一物体,如果没有受到任何外力触动,它将永远继续做匀速直线运动。(条件状语)

    二、句子的类型
        (一) 句子按其结构划分,可分为简单句(Simple Sentence)、并列句(Compound Sentence)、复合句(Complex Sentence)和并列复合句(Compound Complex Sentence)四种类型。
    1. 简单句
        简单句是只含有一个独立分句的句子。简单句内只有一套主语和谓语结构。在这套结构中可以有并列的主语。,也可以有并列的谓语动词。例如:
    ⑴He sang. 
    他唱歌。
    ⑵He and she sang. 
    他和她唱歌。
    ⑶He sang and danced. 
    他又唱歌又跳舞。
    ⑷He and she sang and danced. 
    他和她又唱歌又跳舞。
    注:主语和谓语是简单句的主要成分。此外,句中还可以有一些别的成分,如补语、宾语、定语、状语等。
    2. 并列句
    并列句是含有两个或两个以上独立分句的句子。并列句内有两套或两套以上主语和谓语结构。这些独立分句之间的关系是并列关系。例如:
    ⑴This is me and these are my friends. 
    这是我,这些是我的朋友。
    ⑵Fish must stay in water,or they will die.
    鱼必须呆在水里,否则就会死亡。
    ⑶It's not cheap,but it's very good. 
    这东西不便宜,但却很好。
    3. 复合句
    复合句是含有一个主句和一个或一个以上从句的句子。从句在句中作为一个成分从属于主句。从句与从句之间可能有并列关系。每一个从句本身又可能作为另一个或几个从句的主句,因此,就构成重叠的、从句套从句的、十分复杂的句子。例如:
    ⑴She loves her dog as a mother loves her child. 
    她爱狗犹如母爱子。
    (主句是She loves her dog,从句是as a mother loves her child。)
    ⑵There's a professor who presents the material in the most interesting way and who enjoys what he teaches.
    有一位教授将他提供的讲稿讲得非常有趣,他也从中获得乐趣。
    (There's a professor是主句,who presents the material in the most interesting way和who enjoys what he teaches是两个并列的定语从句,其中的what he teaches在第二个定语从句中充当宾语,是个宾语从句。)
    ⑶John Smith,who was the owner of that house in which he had lived for twenty years and which he would sell for one thousand dollars,was a friend of my uncle.
    约翰·史密斯是我叔叔的朋友,他是那个房子的房主,他在那里已经住了20年了,要把房子以1000美元的价格卖掉。
    (这句话有一个主句,三个从句。主句是John Smith was a friend of my uncle,第一个从句who was the owner of that house充当定语,修饰John Smith;第二个从句in which he had lived for twenty years和第三个从句which he would sell for one thousand dollars是并列的,共同修饰第一个从句中的house。)
    注:引导从句的关联词共有7类:
    1)从属连词:if,because,although,as等
    2)疑问代词:who,which,whom,what,whose
    3)疑问副词:when,where,how,why
    4)关系代词:who,whom,whose,which,that
    5)关系副词:when,where,why
    6)缩合连接代词:what,whatever,who,whoever,whichever
    7)缩合连接副词:when,where,why,whether (if)  
    4. 并列复合句
    并列复合句是并列句与复合句的组合。在一个并列复合句中有两个或两个以上的主句和一个或一个以上的从句。这两个或两个以上的主句构成并列关系,一个或一个以上的从句和某一个或几个主句构成主从关系。例如:
    ⑴I came to the conclusion that these strangers were swindlers and I rang the police station right away.
    我得出了结论:这些陌生人是骗子。于是,我立刻打电话到警察局。
    (这句中有两个并列的主句,它们是I came to the Conclusion和I rang the police station right away。that these strangers were swindlers是一个同位语从句,做conelusion的同位语。)
    ⑵The teacher asked Tom many questions which aren't difficult to answer,but he made no response,either because he was too nervous or (because)he purposely acted as if he were ignorant.
    老师问了汤姆许多不难回答的问题,但是他一点反应都没有,这也许因为他太紧张,也许(因为)他故意装作不懂。
    (这句中有两个主句和四个从句。两个主句分别是The teacher asked Tom many questions和he made no response。第一个从句which aren't difficult to answer是个定语从句,修饰第一个主句中的questions。第二个从句because he was too nervous和第三个从句(because)he purposely acted as if he were ignorant是并列的,用作状语,说明第二个主句中make no response的原因。第四个从句as if he were ignorant是套在第三个从句内的,也用作状语, 说明acted的方式。)
    (二) 英语基本句型
    1. 主语+动词+主语补足语(又称表语)
    该句型中的动词被称为连系动词,它们用以表明主语所处的状态,如appear,continue,hold,keep,rest,ring,smell,stay,taste等,或从一种状态转变为另一种状态,如come,emerge,fall,make,英语字母代号为SVC(S=subject,V=predicate verb,C=complement)。例如:
        ⑴The door banged shut. 
          门砰的一声关上了。
        ⑵The weather is continuing mild. 
          天气一直很温暖。

          房间里有股霉味儿。
        ⒃The television is still on.

        ⒄That seems of no importance. 
          那看起来并不重要。
        ⒅For a bridge to collapse like that is unbelievable.
          一座桥像那样坍塌下来令人难以置信。
    2. 主语+动词+状语
    在大部分英语句子中,动词可用副词修饰,也可不用副词修饰,但在有些句子中,有些动词必须有副词修饰,否则句子意思就不完整,即:在这种句型中,状语成分必不可少。英语字母代号为SVA。例如:
        ⑴We trudged wearily up the hill.
          我们疲乏地跋涉上山。(不可说:We trudged.)
        ⑵They often behaved contemptuously towards their neighbors.

          火车十点钟开。(不可说:The train leaves.)
        ⑸They are staying in the White Swan Hotel.

        上述诸例表明,构成“主语+动词+状语”结构中的谓语动词一般是不及物动词。而状语则使句子在形式和内容上得以完整。
    3. 主语+动词
        该句型中的动词为完全不及物动词,没有宾语,也无需补足语。英语字母代号为SV。例如:

          这本书会有销路的。
    4. 主语+动词+宾语
    该句型中动词为完全及物动词。由于这类动词后面只跟一个宾语,因此又被叫做单宾语及物动词。英语字母代号为SVO(O=Direct object)。例如:
    ⑴Her sad story moved in. 
    她的悲惨故事使我们感动。
    ⑵The bus seats thirty.

     上述例子表明,宾语可以是名词短语、代词、非谓语动词等。
    5. 主语+动词+宾语+宾语补足语
    宾语补足语可以由名词、名词短语、形容词、形容词短语、非谓语动词等担任。英语字母代号为SVOOc。(Oc=Object Complement)。例如:

          他们让我们走了。
    6. 主语+动词+宾语+状语
