1 As for chemical fertilisers, crops grown with them usually grow too fast to be rich in nutrition.
至于化肥,用它们种植的作物通常生长得太快,无法提供丰富的营养。
too fast to be...是too...to...结构,该结构意为“太……以致不……,太……而不能……”。其中too是副词,用来修饰形容词/副词,to是动词不定式符号。
The boy is too young to understand the story.
这个男孩太小,理解不了这个故事。
使用too...to...结构时应注意:
(1)句子主语与构成不定式的动词在逻辑上是动宾关系,且构成不定式的动词是及物动词时,不定式中的动词后不能跟宾语。
Tom spoke too quickly for us to understand.
汤姆说话太快了,我们听不懂。
(2)句子主语与构成不定式的动词在逻辑上是动宾关系,且构成不定式的动词是不及物动词时,要在动词后加上适当的介词。
The house is too small for the family to live in.
房子太小,那家人住不下。
(3)too...to...结构并非总是表示否定意义,在以下几种情况中,too...to...结构表示肯定意义:
①not置于动词不定式前,构成too...not to...结构时,原来表示否定意义的不定式再次受到否定,转而表示肯定意义,该结构意为“太……不会不……”或“非常……必定能……”。
He is too careful not to have noticed that.
他非常小心,肯定注意到了那一点。
②too...to...结构前有not,never,no longer,but,only等词时,这一结构也表示肯定意义。
It is never too old to learn.
活到老,学到老。
③too...to...结构中,too后为anxious,eager,glad,happy,pleased,excited,ready,satisfied,kind,willing等表示态度、心情、倾向等的形容词时,too相当于very much(极其,十分,非常),此时该结构表示肯定意义。
He is too ready to help others.
他十分乐意帮助别人。
He is too pleased to receive the pretty gift.
收到这份漂亮的礼物,他非常高兴。
He was too angry to_say(say) a word.
2 What keeps them from doing so is the fact that chemical farming serves the high demand for food around the world.
阻止他们这样做的原因是化学农业满足了世界各地对粮食的巨大需求。
这是一个复合句。What keeps them from doing so是主语从句;that chemical farming serves the high demand for food around the world是同位语从句。其中keep...from doing so是keep...from doing sth.“阻止……做某事”结构。同义表达还有:stop/prevent sb.(from) doing sth.阻止某人做某事
这三个结构的主动语态中只有keep...from...中from不能省略;在被动语态中,三个from均不可省略。
