3 断句
当句子较长时,人们会觉得很难一口气把话说完。这时,可以按语义和语法的关系把句子分为若干段,每一段就是一个意群。换句话说,意群就是可以构成一个相对独立意思的一段,是组成句子的部件。
意群和意群之间可以有一定的停顿,这种停顿和人们的思维活动是一致的。但一个意群中的各个单词之间则不可停顿,整个意群读下来就像一个长单词一样。记住:英语不是一个词一个词地说的。
例1:Repeating after tapes is very inportant for beginners.
意群:Repeating after tapes | is very inportant | for beginners.
跟读录音带对于初学者来说,是非常重要的。
例2:Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, happy, and wise.
意群:Early to bed | and early to rise | makes a man | healthy, happy, and wise.
睡得早,起得早,健康、快乐、头脑好。
例3:Liu Xiang, who's a brilliant runner,represented China at Olympic Games.
意群:Liu Xiang, | who's a brilliant runner, | represented China | at Olympic Games.
