18、t step is always the hardest.,.,30,III. 英语习语的整体与结构成分之间的语义关系,一、无理据习语( de-motivated idioms)。 习语的意义与构成这习语的词的意义已经丧失联系, 整个习语的意义已经不能从构成这一习语的各个词的意义中得出来了。 这一类习语可称之为无理据习语( de-motivated idioms)。如:fly off the handle, between the devil and the deep blue sea, drop the pilot, wear ones heart on ones sleeve.,.,31,

19、二、有理据习语(motivated idioms), 习语的意义与构成这习语的词的意义有一定联系,这一类习语的意义虽然不是由构成该习语的各个词的意义合成的,但却是由整个词组的意义引申出来的。 所以是有理据习语(motivated idioms)。这类习语的特征之一是形象化,带有隐喻或明喻色彩。如:eager beaver, as cool as a cucumber, smooth tongue, put a spoke in ones wheels, dance attendance on, as easy as rolling off a log.,.,32,这一类习语的另一个特征是:由组

20、成习语的各个词的字面意义引申出转义。如: draw the curtain 拉开、拉上帘子-结束或掩盖 drag ones feet 拖着脚步走-故意拖拉,.,33,IV 英语习语的修辞色彩和语体色彩,一、修辞色彩/修辞方法 英语习语言简意赅,表达方式简洁洗炼,语言生动活泼,具有浓厚的修辞色彩。不少习语利用各种修辞手段。如:a. 对比手段 hit or miss make neither head or tail of sth. make or mar, sink or swim, rain or shine,.,34,b. 词语的重复 neck and neck, out and out /

21、 through and through round and round c. 意义相近的词语起强调作用 by leaps and bounds, pick and choose, with might and main, chop and change,.,35,d. 利用押头韵的手段构成习语 neck or nothing, hum and haw, rough and ready, as blind as a bat as large as life,.,36,二、语体色彩,一般来说,大部分英语习语属于口语语体。但由于习语含义深刻并富于形象性,所以会经常出现在其他语体中。一、属于语言的共

22、核部分的习语如:We dont usually admit anyone under the age of twenty-one to our meetings, but I think we might stretch a point in your case.二、带有口语色彩的习语如:He likes to let on that he is an expert in electronics. Dont take what he says too much to heart, hes just letting off steam. If youve got a complaint, the

23、 best thing is to see the person concerned and have it out with him.,.,37,三、带有俚语色彩的习语如:As soon as they realized that there was likely to be trouble, his companions deserted him and left him to carry the can. (fair weather friend) They used to chew the rag after dinner.同一个习语在不同语境中有不同意义和语体色彩。如:John ke

24、pt at the job until he cleaned it up. The company cleaned up in real estate. To keep the enemy from crossing the river they blew up the bridge. He relieved his feeling of annoyance by blowing up his assistants.,.,38,V. 英语习语的应用,一、英语习语的句法功能 语法功能与结构成份有其一致的一面,也有其不一致的一面。 单从表层结构不能判断其句法功能。如:以动词为中心构成的习语多半在句

25、中起谓语作用,这可从动词性习语的结构中加以判定。 pick and choose, round up, kick over the traces. 由名词为中心构成的习语比较复杂,不能只从起结构上确定其句法功能。 part and parcel: Microbiology is part and parcel of biology. 微生物学是生物学的组成部分。 a bed of rose: A teachers job is not a bed of roses.,.,39, 有的习语形式上似乎是名词性结构,而实际上并 非是名词性习语。 pepper and salt His hair is

26、 pepper and salt. heart and soul We must serve the people heart and soul. 我们必须全心全意地为人民服务。 tooth and nail That woman fought tooth and nail during the war to protect her children. 那个妇女在那场战争中竭尽全力的保护她的孩子。,.,40, 同一个习语也有及物和不及物之分,而且意义也 不相同。如:clear up It will probably clear up this afternoon. 今天下午天气大概将晴朗。 H

27、is responsibility is to clear up the mess. 他的责任是收拾这个烂摊子。 knock about We just want to go to Beijing, and knock about for a few Days. 我们想去北京,在那儿几天到处逛逛。 The ship was badly knocked about by storm. 船被暴风雨击打得很厉害。,.,41,二、英语习语与其他词语的搭配要精确地使用英语习语,除了掌握其语法功能之外,还需要注意该习语与哪些词语经常搭配使用。根据与习语搭配使用的词语,还可判定习语的确切意义。如: gain

28、 on The horsemen were rapidly gaining on their enemy. 骑兵们迅速追上了敌人。 The sea has been gaining on the east coast of England for many years. 多年来,海洋一直在侵蚀英国东海岸。,.,42,Pass away The storm should pass away before dark. 天黑前风暴就会停止了。 Even the time pass away, it sill can work well. 即使时间流逝再多他们也还是能工作。 Im sorry to h

29、ear that the old man passed away last night. 听到老人昨晚去世的消息很难受。,.,43,三、英语习语的灵活运用英语习语的组成部分不容任意更动或替换,即使更动或变换,也受一定的限制。然而,为了渲染气氛,烘托思想感情或突出某种概念,或者为了修辞的需要,作者在形文时往往对习语作一定的更动。1、习语组成部分的替换和分拆: a cut above = several cuts above pull a long face = pull an unhappy face bring into line = wrestle into line,.,44,2.习语组成部分的扩充如:put into practice = put into widespread practice come of age = come of college age keep company = keep rather disreputable company3. 习语组成部分的缩略如: silver lining = Every cloud has a silver lining. velvet paw = Velvet paws hide sharp claws.,
