能使用这种结构的动词更少,应该掌握的有:make(e.g. They made him the monitor of the class.), keep(e.g. we keep the bird alive), set (e.g. They set the bird free ), leave (e.g. I leave the door open),
还有一种主语与谓语倒装的there be句型。there为引导词,be为谓语,be的后面为主语。如:
There are seven continents on the earth. 地球上有七大洲。
There will be a change in the weather. 天气会有变化。
There有时和seem, appear等半系动词连用,表示“似乎”有。也是主、谓语倒装。如:
There seems something wrong with the instrument. 这台仪器似乎有点问题。
下面我们以2003年综合类B/C级阅读判断文章为例来分析名词结构和动词结构在句中充当的语法功能。
A Pay Rise or Not?
"Unless I get a rise, Ill have a talk with the boss, Henry Manley," George Strong said to himself. George liked his job and he liked the town (he lived in), but his wife kept telling him (that his pay was not enough to meet the needs of the family). That was (why he was thinking of taking a job in Birmingham, a nearby city about 50 miles away). He had been offered a job in a factory there, and the pay was far better.
George lived in Wyeford, a medium-sized (复合词)town. He really liked the place and didnt like the idea of moving somewhere else, but if he took the job in Birmingham, he would have to move his family there.

医生或有博士学位的人称 Doctor ...;有权主持法庭审判的人可称Judge ...。州长和市长可称Governor ...和 Mayor ....。实际上外国人在称呼州长和市长时往往只称Governor或Mayor,而省去了他们的名字, 在称呼教授时也是仅仅称呼他们为Professor.
