那么,主干到底会出现在什么地方呢?一般来讲,英文讲究开门见山,句子的表达也不例外,重要的单词,重要的信息一般放在句子最前面。也就是说,如果句子开头即出现名词,那么它90%以上就是句子的主语了。举例如下:
The unity that should characterize the strong system is developed by affording opportunity for diversity, which appears to be essential if education is to develop in consideration of the needs of children and youth.
这句话一开头就出现the unity 那么它就是句子的主语了,而且后面出现that这个信号词,那就更加证明the unity主语的身份,因为只有主干才享有被修饰的权利。
还有一种情况,那就是句子一开始也许出现的是形容词或是其他的修饰的词汇,那么我们一定要往后找到最终的那个名词,找到了,就是句子的主语。比如:
Popular illustrated magazines rapidly became an important and significant factor to the literate in Australia, who was forming our national image, as were the singers of ballads and strolling entertainers who were also making a major contribution.
这句话一开始是由两个形容词开头popular和illustrated,那么后面它们所修饰的名词magazines就是句子的主语了。
