Impersonal sentences. Безличные предложения.
Безличные предложения в английском языке не имеют субъекта действия, хотя всегда содержат подлежащее, выраженное местоимением it. Оно не имеет лексического значения, а выполняет функцию формального подлежащего и на русский язык не переводится. Безличные предложения употребляются при обозначении явлений природы и состояний погоды, при обозначении времени и расстояния.
- It is cold. – Холодно. - It is spring. – Весна. - It is late. – Поздно.
- It snows. – Идет снег. - It is five o’clock. – Пять часов.
К безличным также относятся предложения, где подлежащее выражено инфинитивом с вводным it:
- It is unpleasant to walk in rainy weather. – Неприятно гулять в дождливую погоду.
Degrees of comparison of adjectives and adverbs. Степени сравнения прилагательных и наречий.
Прилагательные в английском языке, как и в русском, имеют три степени сравнения: положительную, сравнительную, превосходную. Есть три способа образования степеней английских прилагательных:
при помощи суффиксов –er, -est;
при помощи слов more (более), most (наиболее);
путем образования степеней сравнения от разных корней (в исключениях).
При помощи –er, -est образуются
а) односложные прилагательные:
Green- greener- (the) greenest
Warm- warmer- (the) warmest
И некоторые двухсложные.
b) с ударением на втором слоге
Polite- politer- (the) politest
Remote- remoter- (the) remotest
c) оканчивающиеся на –y, -ow, -er, -le.
Easy- easier- (the) easiest
Narrow- narrower- (the) narrowest
Clever- cleverer- (the) cleverest
Simple- simpler- (the) simplest
Здесь соблюдаются следующие правила орфографии:
- если прилагательное оканчивается на немое «е», то при прибавлении – er, -est оно пропускается:
Large- larger- largest
- если прилагательное оканчивается на согласную, перед которой стоит краткий гласный, то конечная согласная удваивается:
Big- bigger- (the) biggest
Hot- hotter- (the) hottest
- если прилагательное оканчивается на «y», перед которым стоит согласный, то при прибавлении –er, -est «y» переходит в «i»:
Dirty- dirtier- (the) dirtiest
- если перед «y» стоит гласный, то «y» остается без изменений:
Gay- gayer- (the) gayest
При помощи слов (более), (наиболее) образуется большинство двухсложных и все прилагательные, состоящие из трех и более слогов:
Beautiful- more beautiful- (the) most beautiful
Interesting- more interesting- (the) most interesting
Прилагательные good, bad, much, many, little- исключения, они образуют степени сравнения от разных корней:
Good- better- the best Much, many- more- the most
Bad- worse- the worst Little- less- the least
Также может употребляться усиленная форма сравнительной степени прилагательных many, much в значении «намного больше»:
- Britain has much more rain than Belarus.
- I have many more books than you.
Степени сравнения наречий образуются так же, как и степени сравнения прилагательных. Наречия образа действия, а также некоторые другие, могут иметь степени сравнения - сравнительную и превосходную (положительная степень совпадает с исходной формой). Перед такими наречиями можно по смыслу поставить very – очень. Наречия определенного времени, места и многие другие
степеней сравнения не имеют.
