6 adverb

['ædvəːb]
n; грам.

наречие

USAGE:

(1.) Наречия и наречные обороты занимают в предложении разное место в зависимости от того, в какие лексико-семантические группировки они входят. Наречия могут занимать четыре основные позиции: (а.) в начале предложения; (б) в середине предложения перед основным глаголом; (в) в середине предложения перед прилагательным, наречием и числительным; (г) в конце предложения. Когда имеется несколько наречий, каждое из которых может занимать одну и ту же из этих четырех позиций, они располагаются в следующем порядке: наречия образа действия → наречия места → наречия времени: he came home late; we have been working hard of late. (2.) Наречия места, образа действия и определенного времени обычно стоят в конце предложения, после глагола и дополнения. Наречия места here, there могут стоять в начальной позиции, образуя особый тип усилительного предложения. В тех случаях, когда подлежащее выражено существительным, в предложениях используется обратный порядок слов: here are your gloves вот твои перчатки; there come your friends вот идут твои друзья. Наречия определенного времени могут занимать две позиции: в конце или в начале предложения. В начале предложения они употребляются для усиления: yesterday he gave me a call; ср. he gave me it call yesterday. Наречие образа действия могут занимать место перед дополнением, если оно очень длинное: he could very easily imagine the consequences of being found by the police. Наречие образа действия fast, в отличие от других наречий этой группы обычно стоит перед смысловым глаголом, который наиболее часто выступает в форме Continuous: They were fast becoming a popular party. Наречия образа действия могут занимать положение перед смысловым глаголом для усиления: she carefully wrapped each book; anyone can easily do it. (3.) Наречия неопределенного времени, частоты, длительности, такие, как usually, always, never, ever, often, forever, occasionally, sometimes, constantly и др., как правило, стоят перед смысловым глаголом: he usually rings me up on Sunday; we don't often meet now. Наречие длительности long употребляется только в вопросительных и отрицательных предложениях. В отрицательных предложениях long стоит после смыслового глагола. В утвердительных предложениях long употребляется в сочетаниях с so, too, enough и в сравнительном обороте as long as: have you been waiting long?; I have not been there long; I am afraid it is too long to go; the report lasted long enough to bore the audience. You must obey University rules as long as you are a student. (4.) Наречия степени могут занимать разное положение. Наречия a bit, a great deal, a lot, a little, very much, hard обычно стоят после смыслового глагола и дополнения: I missed you a great deal. Большинство наречий степени стоит перед смысловым глаголом или перед прилагательным и числительным: That film was particularly interesting. The report has been radically changed. (5.) Наречия, выражающие мнение, возможность, вероятность, отношение, обычно относятся ко всему предложению и, как правило, стоят в начале предложения или перед смысловым глаголом. Наиболее часто употребляются такие наречия, как fortunately, unfortunately, luckily, naturally, probably, obviously: Fortunately, he did not notice me. (6.) Усилительные наречия обычно стоят после подлежащего или перед смысловым глаголом или перед тем словом, к которому они относятся: that just can't be done; I don't quite agree with you

12 Gorton, Richard

SUBJECT AREA: Textiles

[br]

fl. 1790s England

[br]

English patentee of a power loom for weaving narrow fabrics.

[br]

In May 1791, Richard Gorton took out a patent for a new type of power-driven loom for narrow fabrics to "work one or several pieces at the same time, either by hand, lath, steam engine, or by water-machinery". The sley with the reed was worked by a crank, and the picker by a lever and cam. The shuttle-box had springs to retain the shuttle, and the warp was kept tight by weights. A stop, which was usually pushed out of the way by the shuttle entering the box, prevented the sley or lath "driving the shuttle against the piece" when the shuttle stuck in the middle. One particularly interesting feature was the sizing of the warp threads by means of brushes and a roller that turned in a square trough filled with size. This pre-dates Radcliffe's sizing machine, which is always considered the first, by a number of years. The mill in which these machines worked was at Cuckney, near Mansfield, England. In 1788 Thomas Gorton had installed one of the earliest Boulton \& Watt rotative steam engines there.
