感嘆句的八種特殊表達法
感嘆句一般由how或者what引起。例如：
what a wonderful time we ever had together. 我們曾經一起度過了多麼美好的時光啊。
how i longed for those carefree days. 我多麼嚮往那些無憂無慮的歲月啊。
但除此之外，還有以下八種特殊形式的感嘆句：
1. 以if或if only起首引起的感嘆句，用於表示願望、意外、驚奇等：
if only i had known her earlier. 要是我早點認識她就好了。
if he hasn』t gone and got into trouble with the police! 他竟然跟**惹上了麻煩！
if that』s not the best idea i』ve heard in a long time. 很久沒聽到過這麼好的意見了啊！
2. 以to think that或to think of 起首的感嘆句：
to think of my le**ing the umbrella in the train. 真沒想到我把傘落在了火車上。
to think of his not knowing about it! 想想看，他對此事竟一無所知！
3. 以who起首的感嘆句，表示驚奇：
who would h**e thought it! 誰能想得到啊！
who else could h**e done it! 還有誰會做這件事情！
4. 以off, away, here, there等起首的感嘆句：
here it begins! 這就開始啦！
there! you』ve gone and woken the baby! 看！你一去就把孩子吵醒了！
away with all these petty restrictions! 廢除一切煩瑣限制！
off with you at once! 馬上給我滾！
5. 疑問句的肯定式或否定式表示感嘆：
was i excited! 我是多麼激動呀！
hasn』t she grown! 她長這麼大了！

how can he be so broad-minded! 他的胸懷是多麼寬廣！
isn』t she clever! 她真聰明！
am i hungry! 我多麼餓呀！
aren』t you lucky! 你真走運！
注：疑問句的否定形式表感嘆時，必須用縮略形式n』t，否則就成了否定疑問句。例如：
has she not grown up?就是否定疑問句，意為:「她還沒有長大**嗎？
」6. 以that起首的感嘆句表示願望、遺憾：
oh, that she were here. 哦，要是她在這就好了！
that it should ever come to this. 事情竟然會弄到這種地步！
7. 以so和such強調的感嘆句：
the little boy is so clever. 這小男孩真聰明！
it was such terrible writing. 寫得真糟糕！
8. 短語感嘆句：
free at last! free at last! thank god almighty, we are free at last!
終於自由了！終於自由了！感謝上帝,我們終於自由了!
