各位聽眾朋友，這里是可可早間課堂。我是Juliet。可可早間課堂給您講解的是最基本，最基礎(chǔ)的知識(shí)，讓您擁有扎實(shí)的基本功。歷經(jīng)20多年來的學(xué)習(xí)，我深深地感到：基礎(chǔ)即是精髓，基本即是精華。

【今日主題】

This morning, I'm going to talk about a sentence pattern which is : One's decision is that S should do. 這個(gè)句式表達(dá)的意思是：某人的決定是......， 某人決定......。

【主題詳解】

Let's make a sentence to get a grasp of it. Look at this sentence: Our decision is that the school should remain closed. 我們決定這個(gè)學(xué)校還是不開放。這是一個(gè)含有表語從句的復(fù)合句。主句是：our decision is , 表語從句是：that the school should remain closed。在這個(gè)從句中使用了虛擬語氣，即：謂語結(jié)構(gòu)為——should + remain (動(dòng)詞原形), 且謂語中的情態(tài)動(dòng)詞 should 是可以省略的。由此可見，含有表語從句的復(fù)合句中的主句中的主語含有“decision”這個(gè)表示“決定”的名詞時(shí)，表語從句要用虛擬語氣。

Let's look at more example sentences. The editor's decision is that it be so. 編輯定了這稿件不再改了。值得大家注意的是從句that it be so由于省略了情態(tài)動(dòng)詞should，因此謂語就是be. The General Manager's decision is that we go ahead with this project. 總經(jīng)理決定繼續(xù)這項(xiàng)工程。該句子中的表語從句也省略了should.

【視野拓展——情景口語】

As a matter of a fact, some sentences including decision is widely used in our daily conversation. Such as : 1 工作中很多事情是要經(jīng)過“老大”點(diǎn)頭的，而您只是一個(gè)中層領(lǐng)導(dǎo)，跟您是好友的人問您他是否被聘用，您可以說: The decision is in the hand of him.決定權(quán)在他那兒。2 一個(gè)人的家中總有一個(gè)人講話有分量，起著決定作用，我們常說：“家里的事兒她說了算”。She is a decision-maker( 復(fù)合詞) in the house. 3 現(xiàn)在很多公司是多個(gè)人合伙辦起的，但是總有一個(gè)“老大”中的“老大”，在商量事情時(shí)不免會(huì)持有異議，而您作為“老大”中的“老大”在異議紛紛時(shí)會(huì)盛怒，在盛怒之下，你或許會(huì)說：Don't argue with me, my decision is final. 不要和我爭(zhēng)辯了，我的決定是最終決定。3 我們看電視，在體育比賽中，有時(shí)候裁判的裁決是有是有失誤的，但是：The umpire' s decision is always unchangeable. 裁判員的裁決總是不可改變的。

【視野拓展——高分寫作短語】

Talking of “decision”, we have many useful phrase. They are as follows:

1 take a decision ( make a decision make decisions )Three of them mean " decide " .Let's look a sentence: We need to take a decision on this problem by next week. 我們要說“對(duì)某事做決定”則在decision后面加上介詞on 或是about , 但是要強(qiáng)調(diào)的是：如果是介詞on或者about的話，后面只能跟名詞或者是某些名詞性短語，但是絕不能跟動(dòng)名詞短語表示“做出做某事的決定”。那么要說“做出做某事”的決定，我們只能用動(dòng)詞不定式。請(qǐng)看下面這句話：We made the decision to go ahead with this project. 我們可以看到make a decision make the decision, 在decision前不是a 就是the, 則可見decision是個(gè)可數(shù)名詞,當(dāng)然我們可以用復(fù)數(shù)decisions，那么就有這個(gè)短語, 即：make decisions. Let's look at a sentence: He is really bad at making decisions. 他太不善于決策了。此句中的be bad at正好是 be good at 的反義詞，即：不擅長(zhǎng)......， 不善于......。

2 reach a decision ( = come to a decision ) Both of them mean" decide after some difficulty". 意思是：經(jīng)歷了某種困難后而做出的決定，就是中文說的“做出抉擇”。Let's look at the example sentences. 1 We must come to a decision about what to do next by tomorrow. 我們必須在明日前就下一步做什么做出決定。2 She reached a decision to break up with him finally. 她最終還是做出了分手的抉擇。
