too...to...句型表示“太……以至于不能……”，表示否定。可轉(zhuǎn)化為not...enoughto...和so...that...。

too...to...結(jié)構(gòu)前面出現(xiàn)only時(shí),不僅不表示否定意義，反而加強(qiáng)了它的肯定語(yǔ)氣，onlytoo相當(dāng)于very或verymuch。例如：Ishallbeonlytoopleasedtogethome.我將非常高興地回家。3.too...to...結(jié)構(gòu)中，too后接的是表示情感的形容詞，例如：glad,pleased,happy,sad等，too…to…結(jié)構(gòu)表示的是肯定意義。例如：Heistoosadtohearthebadnews.聽(tīng)到不幸的消息他太悲傷了。too...to...結(jié)構(gòu)表示肯定意義Languagepoints:Importantsentences(P50)1.分子(molecules)太小，看不見(jiàn)。2.這輛小汽車(chē)太貴，他買(mǎi)不起。3.這本書(shū)讀起來(lái)并沒(méi)有那么難。4.聽(tīng)到她爸爸要回來(lái)的消息，她太開(kāi)心了。The?molecules?are?much?too?small?to?see/to?be?seen.The?car?is?too?expensive?for?himto?buy.?Itwasnottoochallengingtoreadthisbook.即學(xué)即用Languagepoints:Importantsentences
