学员疑问:老师, take into account sth.是怎么会回事?不应该是take sth. into account 吗?
老师解答 :“take sth into account” 这个短语中,宾语通常放在 take 和 into account 之间。但在以下情况,可以(甚至更自然)将宾语后置,变成 take into account sth:
宾语较长或结构复杂
当宾语是一个较长的名词短语、带后置修饰语(如定语从句、介词短语)或从句时,放在中间会显得笨重、头重脚轻。
✅ We must take into account the fact that the project is already behind schedule.
❓ We must take the fact that the project is already behind schedule into account.(虽然语法正确,但很别扭)
被动语态中
被动结构通常说 ... is taken into account,但若需要保留宾语后置形式,常见于正式文体。
✅ All relevant factors were taken into account.(此处无宾语后置问题)
✅ It is important to take into account the opinions of all stakeholders.(主动,宾语较长)
强调或文体需要
在正式写作、学术或法律英语中,为了保持句子平衡或突出宾语,也会使用后置形式。
✅ The committee failed to take into account the long-term consequences.
点评分析: 总结,宾语短小(如代词、简单名词)时,通常用 take it/this into account。宾语较长或复杂时,用 take into account + 长宾语 更自然、清晰。像 take sth into account 这种“动词 + 宾语 + 介词短语/副词”的结构,当宾语较长时,经常可以把介词短语或副词提前,变成 动词 + 介词短语/副词 + 宾语。这类情况很常见。
