點(diǎn)睛
本句的主干是Katsue Reynolds has argued that...。that girls...in schools and out是that引導(dǎo)的賓語從句,作argue的賓語;其中,in order to...in schools and out是不定式作目的狀語。
assertive的意思是“肯定的;堅(jiān)定而自信的”。如:
She stated her opinion in an assertive tone of voice in the meeting. 她在會(huì)上以一種堅(jiān)定自信的語氣表達(dá)了自己的意見。
compete with的意思是“與……競(jìng)爭(zhēng)”。如:
The committee encourages the athletes to compete with each other on the basis of equality and fairness. 大會(huì)鼓勵(lì)運(yùn)動(dòng)員們?cè)谄降裙降幕A(chǔ)上競(jìng)爭(zhēng)。
in schools and out的意思是“在學(xué)校內(nèi)外”。
考點(diǎn)歸納
賓語從句的時(shí)態(tài)呼應(yīng)。
若主句的謂語動(dòng)詞是一般現(xiàn)在時(shí)或一般將來時(shí),則從句的謂語動(dòng)詞應(yīng)根據(jù)上下文選用適當(dāng)?shù)臅r(shí)態(tài)。
若主句的謂語動(dòng)詞用一般過去時(shí),則從句的謂語動(dòng)詞一般只能用表示過去的某種時(shí)態(tài);但當(dāng)賓語從句表示科學(xué)真理或客觀事實(shí)時(shí),即使主句的謂語動(dòng)詞為過去時(shí),從句的謂語動(dòng)詞仍用一般現(xiàn)在時(shí)。如:
1) She said she had been back for two days. 她說她已經(jīng)回來兩天了。(主句為過去時(shí)態(tài),賓語從句用表示過去的某種時(shí)態(tài))
2) The teacher said light travels much faster than sound. 老師說,光比聲音傳播得快得多。(賓語從句的內(nèi)容為科學(xué)真理)
