1704788025 英文疑难详解 23.they 的误用
1704788026
1704788027 “在仓库里我们找到了一张合用的桌子,虽则要两个礼拜他们才能送来。”译成 At the warehouse we found a suitable table,although it would be two weeks before they could deliver it to us.不知译得对么?
1704788028
1704788029 【解答】译文中的 they 所代表的为何人,句中没有明白说出,即是交代不清,对英文本身颇有问题,改正的办法是将它削去,全句可改译为:
1704788030
1704788031 At the warehouse we found a suitable table,although it could not be delivered to us until after two weeks.

1704788033 再看下面一句:
1704788034
1704788035 In earlier days,learning was acquired through memorizing,copying,and repeating;they merely continued what other people had learned.(在古代,学问是由记忆、抄写和重述而得到的,它们只能把别人所学的继续保留下来罢了。)句中的 they 是想要用来代表上述的记忆、抄写和重述,但意思不分明,如果把 they 改为 people,再把后面的 other people 改为 others,就更明白而无瑕疵了。

1704788041 英文疑难详解 24.whose duty it is to do 中 it 的用法
1704788042
1704788043 There is a second man,whose duty it is to open the box.句中的 it 指什么,从文法上看它是什么作用?如果不用这个 it,句子不也很通吗?
1704788044
1704788045 【解答】在这个句子中,确实是 it 的有无同样通顺,不过有 it 时,更为普通而已。现就质问中的例句来研究一下:
1704788046
1704788047 There is a second man,whose duty it is to open the box.(另外还有一人,他的任务就是开箱。)
1704788048
1704788049 在这句 whose 以下,我们可以改写为 and his duty it is to open the box=and it is his duty to open the box.但在意义上和说 and his duty is to open the box 并无不同,只是语气加重了一些而已。我们不妨从文法的分析来探求这个 it 的来龙去脉,就知道我那加重语气的说法是不错的。

1704788051 A teacher’s duty is to teach.加重时说 It is a teacher’s duty to teach.
1704788052
1704788053 A teacher is a person whose duty is to teach.加重时说 A teacher is a person whose duty it is to teach.
1704788054
1704788055 美国杂志上有这样一个句子:
1704788056
1704788057 Most large companies have trained specialists,personnel managers,whose job it is to interview and pass judgment on prospective employees.(大公司中都训练得有叫做人事经理的专家,他们的工作,就是接见和评定可能录用的雇员。)
1704788058
1704788059 这是加重的说法,我们也可依照上面的方式,把它回复到普通的表现法来:
1704788060
1704788061 The personnel manager is a trained specialist,whose job it is to interview and pass judgment on prospective employees.去掉句中的 it,便是不加重的说法。
1704788062
1704788063 It is the personnel manager’s job to interview and pass judgment on prospective employees.改为普通说法,取消加重,即成为 The personnel manager’s job is to interview and pass judgment on prospective employees.
1704788064
1704788065 现在我们明白了,这个 it 除了加强语气外是没有什么特殊意义的,虽然大多数的人都喜欢用,但不用的人也不在少数,兹各举数例如下:
