Try as he would,he might fail again.为什么是Try而不是tries呢?不是第三人称人数吗?
问题描述:
Try as he would,he might fail again.为什么是Try而不是tries呢?不是第三人称人数吗?
答
因为此处是as引导让步状语从句,此时as意为“虽然”,其特点是必须用倒装,即把as从句中的形容词、副词、名词或动词提到as的前面。正常语序为:As he would try(但不这样用),由于有would,所以try用原形。
答
说白了从句相当于Although he would try,但是as引导的让步状语从句必须采用倒装形式,这样就成了Try as he would.另外though引导的让步状语从句既可以像although不倒装也可以像as采用倒装.
as,though引导的让步状语从句要采用倒装形式.
