3. It doesn’t seem very possible to move a mountain.
译为 .
seem possible 似乎可能,seem 的基本意思是“似乎;好像;仿佛;看来”等,可作不及物动
词或连系动词。seem 用法现归纳如下:
一、seem 可与形容词、名词、不定式 (短语)、分词及介词短语搭配。
1. seem + 形容词 例如:She seems quite happy today. 今天她似乎很高兴。
2. seem + 名词 例如:That seems a good idea. 那似乎是个好主意。
3. seem + 不定式(短语) 例如:He seemed to have known the truth. 他似乎早已知道事情的真相。
4. seem + 分词 例如:He seemed pleased at what I said. 听了我的话,他似乎很高兴。
5. seem + 介词短语 例如:They seemed in high spirits. 他们似乎情绪高涨。
6. seem + like + n./ that,意思是"看起来像……" 例如:It seems like years since I last saw you.自
从我上次见到你以后,好像是过了好几年。
二、seem 常用于 it 作形式主语的结构,即 It seems / seemed that..., 表示“看来……,似乎……”。
例如:It seems that nobody knew what had happened. 似乎没人知道发生了什么事。
三、 seem 常用在“It seems / seemed to sb. (that)...”结构中,意为“在某人看来好像、仿佛……”:
It seems to me that we have been neglecting our duty. 我感觉我们对职责有所疏忽。
4. You have different opinions about the story, and neither of you are wrong.
译为 .
neither of you 你们都不,neither 的用法:
1) neither 用作形容词,表示“(两者)都不”,置于单数名词之前。
Neither article is made in Beijing. 这两种物品都不是北京制造的。
注意:在口语中以 not... either...替换 neither 使用的情形也很多。例如:
They bought neither house. = They didn’t buy either house. 两间房子他们都没买。
2) neither 用作代词,表示“两者都不,双方均不”。例如:He answered neither of the letters. 他
两封信都没回。此时,与 neither 用法较为接近的词是 none,但 none 的含义略有不同,none
表示“(三者以上)所有的……都不”。例如:None of us are perfect. 人无完人。
注意:neither 作主语时,通常被视为单数,但从意义上讲也可视为复数。例如:Neither of the cars
was / were damaged. 两部车都没有受损。
3) neither 用作连词,常用短语为 neither...nor...,表示“既不……也不……”。例如:Neither he nor
I am well educated. 他和我都没受过良好教育。
提醒注意:①neither 和 nor 后面接同一词性的单词或短语。
②neither...nor...结构用作主语时,谓语动词必须与 nor 后面的名词或代词在
人称及数上保持一致,即所谓的就近原则。
③在表示“既……也……”,即“两者都……”时,常用短语 both...and...;
表示“或者……或者……”(即二者选一)时,常用短语 either...or...。
4) neither 用作副词,作“也不”解释,放在句首,表示前面否定的内容也适用于另一个人或物,
句子须采用部分倒装。此时也可用 nor 替换 neither 使用。例如: —I don’t like this dress. 我不
喜欢这件连衣裙。 —Neither / Nor do I. 我也不喜欢。
注意:neither 之后的主语要置于助动词或系动词之后。

2. 当铃响时他们正忙着写作业。

3. 他似乎很不高兴,因为他没有通过考试。
