(我们必须做我们知道是正确的事,而且要全力去做) 决不能读成We/must/dwhat/ we/know/is right,/and do/it with all/our might. 长句中有短暂的, 藉以调和呼吸, 这是自然的现象, 但的地方必须恰到好处通常在: 1有标点符号的地方; 2词组或思想单元之间短语, 从句等思想单元成一单位, 但它们之间可以短暂例如:We must do/what we know is right,/and do it/with all our might.(斜线为可以稍做之处).有人曾对时间的长短提出过一个大致的比例:意群之间如没有标点符号, 停半拍; 有逗号处停一拍; 有分号处停两拍; 有句号处停三拍当然不一定这么机械, 但大致上还应有一个适当的时间比例1.They live in that large house / on the other side / of the bridge. // 2.In the morning / the boy goes to school early. // Sometimes / he was late, / because his mother was in poor health. // 3.It is very important for us / to take part in manual labour / from time to time. // 4.
