until肯定句,否定句用法
方法一,句中謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞是延續(xù)性動(dòng)詞,用肯定句.句中謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞是瞬間動(dòng)詞(非延續(xù)動(dòng)詞),用否定句或含有否定詞的句子.
方法二,和漢語(yǔ)意思一致,看句中動(dòng)作是否做了,做了用肯定句,沒做用否定句.
方法一與方法二并不矛盾,寫句子時(shí)可任選其一.
注意:做選擇填空題時(shí)否定句包括含有否定詞的句子,最好先看一下答案有無(wú)until,如有先填一下看是否正確,如不行,再選其它答案.

1.直到雨停他才離開.
解析:離開是瞬間動(dòng)詞應(yīng)用否定句,離開這個(gè)動(dòng)作在雨停前沒做(沒離開),是否定,所以用否定句,所以句子寫成,He didn't leave until the rain stopped.
強(qiáng)調(diào)句It was not until the stopped that he left.
倒裝句Not until the rain stopped did he leave.
2.直到他媽媽回來他一直在看電視.
解析:看電視是延續(xù)性動(dòng)詞應(yīng)用肯定句,看電視這個(gè)動(dòng)作在媽媽回來前做了,是肯定,所以用肯定句,所以句子寫成,He was watching TV until his mother returned.
