介词短语

造句的原则：句式多变，语法活用，句子是表达一个完整意思的最小单位，所以造句能力在英文写作中是非常重要的。好的英语句子能够生动，形象，准确的表达内容。所以要想写出漂亮的书面表达，必须从写好句子开始。主语+谓语+状语介词，名词短语或从句

An activist for women's rights, Leonora O'Reilly promoted women's vocational training

介词for后面的宾语应该是名词或者名词短语，如果是动词，得用其动名词形式。

The Cubists were concerned with how----a given subject from different points of view simultaneously.

解释：介词with后面的宾语不完整， C 是不定式短语作宾语。 A D都不足以和how构成宾语从句； B不应用疑问句语序，若去

A glass of water , two cups of tea , five pieces of bread .

需要注意的是：类似短语中的介词 of 不能省去，当数词大于&一&时，量词需要用复数形式。

Sting Ray represents the first generation of programmable torpedoes and attention has been turned to the problems of how to harness the vast computer powers now available with their associated software programs, how to package the maximum computer power in the smallest possible space, and how to improve still further the processing and filtering techniques so vital to exclude extraneous noise and vibration.

分析：并列分句attention has been turned to the problems…里的the problems后的介词of 接有三个由疑问词how +动词不定式短语构成的并列成分。filtering techniques：滤波技术，鱼雷利用该技术可以滤掉海洋里产生的干扰声源和鱼雷在水里运动时产生的振动和噪声，所有这些干扰都会对装在鱼雷上的声纳产生干扰，从而影响其探测功能。译文：&鳐鱼&代表着第一代程序控制鱼雷。人们已经将注意力转到如何利用现有的巨大计算机能力及其相关软件程序，如何在尽可能小的空间内容纳最大的计算机能力，以及如何更进一步改进对于排除外来噪声和震动来说至关重要的处理与滤波技术等问题上。

A preposition is a word that comes before a noun or noun phrase.

介词是位于名词或名词短语之前的词。

As the trade winds lessen in 48 , the ocean temperatures rise, causing the Peru current flowing in from the east to warm up by as much as 5 °C.

在介词in的后面，当为名词无疑，注意要搞清楚，in有多种意义，此处整个短语来修饰lessen减少，当为在某个方面减少。

But we don't care about Battlegrounds.

但我们并不在乎沙场中的显露。

Ah! don't mention it, the butcher's shop is a horror.

啊！不用提了。提到肉，真是糟透了。
