5. cannot +动词+ too many +可数名词 / too much +不可数名词,例如:
I think it right that one cannot learn too much knowledge. 我认为一个人的知识愈多愈好。
It is wrong to think that one cannot bear too many children. 认为一个人孩子生得愈多愈好是错误的。
6. It is impossible ( difficult ) to…… too…… = cannot……too…… ,例如:
It is impossible to emphasize this point too much. (= One cannot emphasize this point too much. )要特别强调这一点。
与 cannot……too…… 相似的结构主要有:
1. cannot help + doing :该结构意为“禁不住做……”、“忍不住干……”,指“身不由己地去做某事”。例如:
We could not help thinking when we saw the Great Wall in China.
看到中国的长城,我们不禁浮想联翩。
I couldn't help crying when I heard the bad news. 听到那不幸的消息,我忍不住大哭起来。
“ cannot help but do sth. ”也表示“不得不、忍不住……”。例如:
We could not help but walk from dawn to dusk. 我们不得不从黎明走到黄昏。
Hearing the inspiring news, we couldn't help but cheer. 听到这个鼓舞人心的消息,我们不禁欢呼起来。
2. cannot but do sth :该结构表示“不得不……”。例如:
I cannot but admire his courage. 我不得不钦佩他的勇气。
I couldn't but laugh on reading such a funny joke. 读到如此滑稽的笑话,我忍不住笑了。
在上面句式里,可以说 cannot 后面省略了 do anything .例如:
The prisoner could not ( do anything ) but hand in his knife. 那个犯人不得不交出刀子。
can but do sth. 表示“只得做某事”。例如:
The boy made an apology to his teacher, so the teacher could but give up the idea of punishing him. 那男孩向老师道了歉,老师只得打消惩罚他的念头。
类似这一结构的 cannot choose but to sth 也表示“不得不……”、“只得……”。例如:
It rained hard, so they couldn't choose but stay at home. 雨下得很大,他们只得呆在家里。
