1、利用詞匯重復表示強調

　　A crime is a crime a crime.

2、It作先行主語和先行賓語的一些句型

　　She had said what it was necessary to say.

3、“All+抽象名詞”或“抽象名詞+itself”(very+形容詞)

　　He was all gentleness to her.

4、as…as…can(may)be

　　It is as plain as plain can be.

5、“It is in(with)…as in(with)”

　　It is in life as in a journey.

6、“as good as…”相等于，就像，幾乎如;實際上，其實，實在。

　　The merchant as good as promised the orphan boy，that he would adopt him.

7、“something(much)of”和“nothing(little)of” “something of”相當于“to some extent”，表示程度。在疑問句或條件從句中，則為“anything of ”，可譯為“有點”，“略微”等。譯為“毫無”，“全無”。much of譯為“大有”，not much of可譯為“算不上”，“稱不上”，little of可譯為“幾乎無”，something like譯為“有點像，略似”。

　　They say that he had no university education，but he seems to be something of a scholar.

8、同格名詞修飾是指of前后的兩個名詞都指同一個人或物，“of”以及它前面的名詞構成一個形容詞短語，以修飾“of”后面的那個名詞。如“her old sharper of a father”，可譯為：“她那騙子般的父親”。

　　Those pigs of girls eat so much.

9、“many as well…as”和“might as well …as” “many as well…as”可譯為“與其……，不如……，更好”，“以這樣做……為宜”，“如同……，也可以……”等等。“might as well …as”表示不可能的事，可譯為“猶如……”，“可與……一樣荒唐”，“與其那樣不如這樣的好”等等。

　　One may as well not know a thing at all as know it imperfectly.

10、強調句型

　　It is not who rules us that is important，but how he rules us.
