Grammar:
-
I'd like to thank you for the year
➔ 第二条件句 ('I'd like' = 'I would like')
➔ 表达礼貌的请求或假设情况。“I'd like”是“I would like”的缩写,表示礼貌的愿望。这不描述一个真实的情况,而是一个愿望。我们现在感谢某人过去的一年。
-
To say it's nice to have you here
➔ It + to-不定式 (非人称的'it')
➔ “It's nice to...”结构用于表达一种普遍的感觉或意见。“It”充当占位符主语,而真正的主语是不定式短语“to have you here”。
-
We can watch the snow fall forever and ever
➔ 情态动词'can'+感官动词('watch')+不带to的不定式('fall')
➔ “Can”表示能力或可能性。“Watch”是感官动词,在这类动词之后,我们通常使用不带to的不定式。
-
If we can help to entertain you
➔ 第一类条件从句(零类条件句或第一类条件句取决于上下文)。情态动词“can”+“help to”+不定式。
➔ 这是一个可能的或可能的条件。“Help to entertain”的意思是“帮助实现娱乐的目的”。“to”有时可以省略(help entertain),尤其是在美式英语中。
-
There's no place I'd rather be
➔ There is/are (存在句 'there')。第二类条件句 ('I'd rather be')。省略了关系代词的关系从句 ('that/which')
➔ “There's”是“There is”的缩写。关系从句“I'd rather be”修饰“place”。完整的句子是“There is no place that/which I'd rather be.”
