【实用英文】“肯定”“确定”3大句型！3 “sure” Sentence Patterns

“sure”是个英语高频词，这个词可作形容词用，也可用副词用。当它作形容词用时，意思是“确信的，确定的，一定的”。

用到sure的句型有很多，最常用的是以下3大句型：

I’m sure…

Are you sure…?

Make sure…

这几个句型后面最常接的都是由that引导的从句，不过呢，that通常是被省略掉的。

第一个句型说的是自己觉得确定、有把握的事：

I’m sure she will like your present.

我肯定她会喜欢你的礼物的。

I’m sure I saw him somewhere.

我确定我在什么地方见过他。

I'm pretty sure (that) he'll agree.

我相当肯定他会同意的。

I’m sure everything will turn out okay.

我相信一切都会好起来的。

I'm sure that his confidence won't last long.

我相信他的信心不会持久。

I’m sure this project is going to be a huge success.

我肯定这个项目将会取得巨大的成功。

第二个句型是第一个句型的疑问句形式，是问别人是否能肯定、是否有把握：

Are you sure you don't mind?

你确定你不介意？

Are you sure this is the right train?

你确定就是这趟火车？

Are you sure these figures are right?

你确定这些数字没错？

Are you sure you haven't forgotten anything?

你确信你什么都没忘记？

Are you sure that you know how to get there?

你确信你知道怎样去那儿？

Are you sure it's not a bother?

你确定这事不麻烦？

第三个句型是个祈使句句型，动词用make，表示“使（确定）”，所以这个句型是告诉别人要“确保某事”：

Make sure everybody has been invited.

确保每个人都得到了邀请。

Make sure (that) you get there ten minutes early.

要确保你提早十分钟到那儿。

Make sure the printer has enough paper in it.

确保打印机里有足够的纸。

Make sure you have all the copies.

要确保你带上了所有的副本。

Make sure that you follow the instructions carefully.

要确保你严格遵守了指示。

由于是祈使句，可以在句前或句末加上Please：

Please make sure that you confirm the appointment with them today.

请确保你今天与他们落实好约会。

今天的三个句型后面接的都是从句，事实上，这些句型后面还可能接其他的形式，不过那就是以后再学的内容了！先确保掌握今天的这些句型和句子吧！
