典句精讲
The Human Development Report
1.In the year 2000,147 world leaders agreed to work together to reduce poverty by 2015 or earlier.
2000年,147个国家领导人达成一致意见,为在2015年甚至更早减少贫穷而努力。
【巧解句构】本句是个简单句。agreed to do sth.意思是"同意做某事";to reduce poverty是动词不定式作目的状语。
【拓展延伸】回顾和归纳agree构成的短语:
1)agree to"同意;赞成",to 为介词,后接表示"建议;办法;计划"等名词。如:
In fact,I don't agree to the plan.
事实上,我并不同意这个计划。
In the end,the manager agreed to our suggestion for the holiday.
最后,经理同意了我们度假的建议。
2)agree with"同意;赞成"。后接sb.或what clause。如:
I quite agree with Tom,but I don't agree with what you said.
我非常同意汤姆的意见,但是我不同意你所说的。
3)agree on"对......取得一致意见或达成协议"。也常用被动语态,表示"(某事)是大家都同意的"。如:
At last,the plan was agreed on.
最后,这项计划通过了。
We agreed on the date for the sports meet.
我们对运动会的日期达成了一致意见。
【误区警示】(1)agree to do sth.同意、答应做某事。如:
We didn't agree to go with them,for we had much homework to do.
我们不同意和他们一起去,因为我们有很多的作业要做。
(2)agree with与......相一致/相适应。如:
The food doesn't agree with her.
这种食物不合她的胃口。
2.From this agreement came the Human Development Report.
通过这个协议达成了《人类发展报告》。
【巧解句构】本句是个倒装句。介词短语放在句首,句子要完全倒装。如果换成正常顺序,应该是:
Human Development Report came from this agreement.
再如:On the top of the hill stands a tall tree.
山顶上耸立着一棵大树。
From the building came sound of music.
楼房里传来音乐声。
By his side stood a little girl.
他身旁站立着一个小姑娘。
【拓展延伸】1)有时副词放在句首也要倒装。如:
Out rushed the boys.
男孩们冲了出来。
Away went the children.
孩子们走了。
