"What a language English is!" a Frenchman exclaimed in despair. "I once called on an English friend and the maid who came to the door said, 'He's not up yet. Come back in half an hour.' " "When I came again, she was setting the table for breakfast and said, 'He's not down yet.'" "I asked: 'If he's not up and he's not down, where is he?'" "She said, 'He's still in bed. When I say 'He's not up', I mean he has not yet got up; when I say, 'He's not down', I mean he has not yet come downstairs!' " 42 2. Глагол to have Глагол to have, как и to be, шире по значению, чем русский глагол иметь. В нем, как и в глаголе to be, заложена потенциальная возможность действия. Магу has a pencil in her hand. (наряду с: Mary is holding a pencil in her hand.) Мэри держит в руке карандаш. The city has 100,000 inhabitants. Население города составляет 100 000 человек. В такого рода предложениях при наличии подлежащего — действующего лица возможна и конструкция с there is. There is a pencil in her hand. We haven't any coffee in the house. = There isn't any coffee in the house. Однако глагол to have может употребляться не только с подлежащим, выраженным существительным, обозначающим лицо (как, казалось бы, предполагает само значение глагола — значение обладания), но может использоваться и применительно к предметам. В таких случаях его значение тождественно значению конструкции there is, и они взаимозаменяемы. Например: Some houses had quite wide grass round them. = There was quite wide grass round some houses. Jack's eager conspirator voice seemed very close to his ear, and it had a kind of caress, a sort of embrace. = ...there was a kind of caress, a sort of embrace in Jack's voice. Аналогично глаголу to be, хотя и реже, в качестве глагола-связки в составном сказуемом употребляется и глагол to have. Это имеет место в таких сочетаниях с существительными (часто отглагольными), как to have dinner обедать, to have a talk поговорить, to have a quarrel поссориться, to have a rest отдыхать, to have a walk прогуляться, to have a smoke покурить, to have a good time хорошо провести время и т. д. Глагол to have теряет при этом свое основное значение и служит только указателем на разовое пользование чем-то, совершение некоего ограниченного действия. 17 |
