2、后东西从大到小排列从小到大排列我们知道，中英思维方式对于语言表达有很大影响，现在把两者之间的差异总结如下。请看以下的例子：例子1：(1) Because I made progress in English, the teacher praised me. （思维方式：因果）(2) The teacher praised me for my progress in English. （思维方式：果因）例子2：(1) As soon as the bell rang, the students ran out of the classrooms, and ran down to the play

I went out of the town, and hired a little donkey. I rode on the animal for 3 days and came to a small inn by the river side. I stayed i

5、n it for 2 nights.但是如果我们以逻辑组织语言，英文可以表达为：2. Out of the town, after I spent 3 days on the donkey that I had hired, I came to a small inn by the river side, where I stayed for 2 nights.我们进一步看下面几句：3. Out of the town on a hired donkey for 3 days, I finally stopped for a two-night stay in a small inn by t

6、he river. 4. Out of the town on a hired donkey for 3 days, I stayed in a small inn by the river for 2 nights. 5. Out of the town, I spent 3 days on a hired donkey，with a two-night rest in a small inn by the river.这三个简单句的表现力超过了前面的句子。复合句优胜于简单句的结论不总是成立，句子的复杂度不是决定句子质量的核心因素。三练习: 尝试使用表1所叙述的思维方式来翻译下面的句子，体会
