两人对话,乙方对甲方的问话常可用简短回答作出 反应。例如: Do you like it? -- Yes,I do.这同样适用于陈述句的场合: You worry too much.-- No,I don't.在后一种情况下,乙方也能"So+do+主语"之类 的结构表示看法。
7 |: t6 e; [5 Q例如甲方说"我喜欢苹果",乙方 如果想表示"我也喜欢苹果",英语可以说:

' |7 L; X% e c# `: ], {0 DA:I like apples. - h7 B8 m3 Y4 D" q. U

0 h( ?2 z* ] }1 U6 t- ?) I 这里的so在意义上相当于in the same way,即同样、 也那样,作简短反应表示同样看法时常用之。 # J3 A; x* o0 X% o E

本文 就诸如此类的四种结构略作介绍。 3 ]8 V* D" C6 W9 O2 ^ B2 M7 x
) P% ~2 T, o( [: v5 o# E/ y: r' ]3 _
1."So+do+主语"结构 在简短反应中表示"我也如此"或"另外一个人也 如此"时,也就是主语不同于上文的主语以及上 文并无可用于构成倒装的动词(即操作词时), 可用此结构。例如: A:I like playing football. B:So do I./So does my brother./So did my father. 如果上文有可用于构成倒装的动词时,则用相同 的动词或根据不同人称用同类的动词。 I must go -- So must I. John can speak French.--So can I. I've got a new car.--So has John. She is clever.-- So is he. % z n1 P/ F: |& {# t& v
7 T2 P0 ^% p/ O; }6 |. K) A& \
2."Neither/Nor + do + 主语" 结构 如果上文表示否定意义而在简短反应中表示同样 看法时,可用此结构。例如,甲方说I can't swim, 乙方如果想表示"我也不会游泳",英语可以说 Neither can I. / Nor can I(=I can't either)。 " z @" y& @! J( ]1 i3 O, _* }
Y: K' s5 O7 r; T' B) W
又例如: A:He doesn't speak French. B:Neither/Nor do I. Neither/Nor does my brother. Neither/Nor does my father. 关于以上两种结构,有两点说明: & S- b% Z+ e2 l) g; Q' J2 l
; B0 D8 {$ _" d9 }+ }" K
第一,能用动词缩略形式。例如: I'm going to London. ---So's John。(is) I've been to New York. ---So's John.(has) I'd have gone to Tokyo if I could.---So'd John.(would) John hasn't got a visa. ---Nor've do I.(have) Jim and Mary aren't acting in the college play. ---Neither's Peter.(is)
# t, x v4 x: r/ q$ P5 t7 ~) ^+ K6 C7 r* P7 e u" W0 K
第二,上述甲乙对话如用and连成一句可出自一人 之口。例如: John can speak French and so can't I. John can't speak French and neither/ nor can I. John speaks French and so do I. John doesn't speak French and neither/nor do I. 上述斜体部分相当于and I can, too / and I can't either / and I do too / and I don't either 的意思。
- }& e" O, Q# b8 j
5 G5 ~" e' v5 l! _" G3."So+主语+do"结构 在简短反应中,对别人所说的情况加以肯定以及 主语与上文主语相同时,可用此结构,注意,这 里不用倒装同序;so 的意义相当于indeed, certainly,即"不错"、"对了"。例如: A:John smokes a lot. B: So he does.(=He smokes a lot indeed.) 这类简短反应往往带有说话人的惊奇口吻。例如: A:Look,it's raining! B: So it is. 在这里,So it is的含义是 You are right! It is raining;and this surprises me. * t' s% u7 A4 P' Q! J" ^( ]
