省略句
基本概念篇
1. 省略句的定义
省略是为了避免重复、突出新信息并使上下文紧密连接的一种语法修辞手段。省略在语言中，尤其在对话中，是一种十分普遍的现象。
2. 小品词的省略
（ 1 ）省略介词

3. 句子成分的省略

Take care! 当心！（ Take 前省略了主语 you ）
Looks as if it will rain. 看起来象要下雨。（ Looks 前省略了主语 it ）
（ 2 ）省略谓语
Who next? 该谁了？（ Who 后面省略了谓语 comes ）
The river was deep and the ice thin. （ ice 后面省略了 was ）
We ' ll do the best we can. 我们将尽力而为。（ can 后面省略了动词 do ）
（ 3 ）省略表语
Are you ready? Yes, I am. 你准备好了吗？ 我准备好了。（ am 后面省略了 ready ）
He was a lover of sports as he had been in his youth. 他还是象年轻时那样，是一位运动爱好者。（ had been 后面省略了 a lover of sports ）

（ 5 ）省略定语
He spent part of the money, and the rest he saved. 那钱他花了部分，其余的他都存了起来。（ the rest 后面省略了定语 of the money ）
（ 6 ）省略状语
He was not hurt. Strange! 他没有受伤，真奇怪！（ Strange 前面省略了状语 how ）
难点释疑篇
1. 省略句可同时省掉句子几个成份
What exciting news! (= What exciting news it is!) 多么令人激动的消息啊！
Pity he ' s failed. (= It is a pity that he ' s failed.) 很遗憾，他失败了。
I like him more than her. (= I like him more than I like her.) 我喜欢他更甚于喜欢她。
2. 英语中有一些固定的省略结构：
a) 在以 if, when, though, as if （好像）等连词引导的从句中，如从句中的主要动词是 be ，常将主语和动词 be 省略。
If necessary, we shall send a telegram home. 如有必要，我们就往家里打电报。
Whenever possible, he will come to my help. 他一有可能就来帮助我。
While cycling, don ' t forget the traffic lights. 骑车时，不要忘记看红绿灯。
b) 由固定词组引导的疑问句：
What about having a game of chess? 下盘棋怎么样？
How come they left you alone here? 他们怎么会把你一人留在这里呢？
What if it ' s raining? 如果天下雨怎么办？
Why not try again? 为什么不再试试呢？
c) 在口语中，为了避免重复，不定式可以省去和句子前部重复的动词原形而只留下不定式符号 to 。
He may leave if he wishes to. 他可以走，如果他愿意的话。
Don ' t go till I tell you to. 等我叫你走你再走。
3. 被省略的部分一般可以在句子中补上，但有时省略结构已经定型，如果把省略部分补上，反而不合乎习惯。
He is taller than I am. 他比我高。（ am 之后省略 tall ，补上不合习惯）
No parking. 禁止停车。（告示用语 = No parking is allowed here. ）
有一些习惯表达很难补上所省略的部分：
Not at all. 不用谢。
No matter. 不要紧。
Thanks. 谢谢。
