生动活泼的转化词
英语的实词不但多义,而且同一词还可以属一种以上的词类。此外,从一种词类又可以转化为另一种词类,其中以⒈名词转化为动词、⒉动词转化为名词以及⒊形容词转化为动词,这三种最为普遍、最为生动。转化后的词具有该词基本的特性,因此转化名词有如真正名词,转化动词就像真正动词。
⒈名词→动词
① The workers found Bob's attitude hard to stomach. ② The parachutist had to nerve himself for the jump from his helicopter. ③ A few poor children had been dogging the tourists for some time. ④ Tuition schools have mushroomed for the last two years. ⑤ The traitor was knifed and stoned to death. ⑥ I leafed through a few pages of the book to see what it was about. ⑦ Personality clashes surfaced among some rival leaders. ⑧ Tom elbowed his way through the crowd. ⑨ It is impolite to ape one's superiors. ⑩ Delicious food made our mouths water.
⒉动词→名词
① The innocent girl was having a good cry. ② Active people are always on the go. ③ I often have a quiet read before going to bed. ④ People from all walks of life condemned a bad government. ⑤ Famine came in the wake of the drought. ⑥ The manager gave some lazy workers the sack. ⑦ Let me take a good look at these photos. ⑧ A visit to the Jurong Bird Park is a must for any tourist. ⑨ War is loathed by the haves and the have-nots. ⑩ If you have anything to discuss with me, don't hesitate to give me a ring.
⒊形容词→动词
① Don't idle away your precious time. ② Father's hair begins to grey. ③ How to quiet a fretful child? ④ We have no intention of seeing an innocent person humbled. ⑤ Something must be done to better the life of the underprivileged. ⑥ Language skills can be perfected by constant practice and regular reinforcement. ⑦ The robber wanted his victim to empty his pockets. ⑧ When the enemy's ships neared the land, our soldiers began to attack. ⑨ The man's muscles tensed as he saw the snake approaching him. ⑩ The hot weather soured the fresh milk.
此外,有些形容词和其他词类也可以转化为名词。例如:
① The strong tend to bully the weak. ② Poor innocents deserve our greatest sympathy. ③Richard looked like a silly in such a situation. ④ The secretary knows the ins and outs of the matter. ⑤ Do you know the whys and wherefores of the accident? ⑥ Though a rich man now, Peter's earlier life was marked by ups and downs.
上述这些转化名词,并未具有名词全部的特性。例如“the strong”和“the weak”形式是单数,意思是复数。还有④-⑥这些转化名词既有复数之形,也具复数之意。
