It’s not like her to have missed two days of classes.
一兩天不來上課，她不是這樣的人。
〖剖析〗It’s (just) like sb to do sth “某人（恰恰）就是這個樣子”，表示表揚(yáng)或者不滿，其否定式則表示懷疑。如：
It‘s like him to leave the work to others. 他就是把工作推給別人的人。
It was like him to fail us at the last minute. 他就是這樣，在關(guān)鍵時刻讓我們失望。
It’s just like her to think of others before thinking of herself. 她恰恰就是先人后己的人。

一兩天不來上課，她不是這樣的人。（不上課的事已經(jīng)發(fā)生）
It’s not like her to miss two days of classes.
她不是那種兩天不來上課的人。（并未發(fā)生過不上課的事，只是泛泛而談）
◆ to have missed 是非謂語動詞的完成式，表示動作早已完成。是高考測試中的重要知識點(diǎn)。又如：
① It isn‘t like him to have told a lie to the manager. 他不是給經(jīng)理撒謊的那種人吧。

直接引語變間接引語的 10 個注意點(diǎn)
本單元的語法要求是復(fù)習(xí)間接引語（Indirect Speech）和直接引語( Direct Speech )。同學(xué)們要通過本單元系統(tǒng)掌握表示請求或者命令的直接引語（祈使句）變成間接引語的方法。掌握當(dāng)直接引語是一個陳述句時，在變成間接引語時應(yīng)把這個陳述句變成由連詞 that 引導(dǎo)的賓語從句，并根據(jù)意思改變?nèi)朔Q和時態(tài)以及時間或者地點(diǎn)狀語。下面是必須靈活駕馭的知識要點(diǎn)：
〖注意點(diǎn) 1 〗
直接引語到間接引語的時態(tài)有變化。如直接引語的現(xiàn)在完成時變成間接引語的過去完成時等。時態(tài)變化中應(yīng)注意：
直接引語表述的是客觀真理時，間接引語中的時態(tài)不變。
Our teacher said, “The earth moves around the sun. ” →
Our teacher said that the earth moves around the sun.
直接引語是過去完成時，變間接引語時時態(tài)不變。
The boy said to his parents, “I had finished my homework before supper.”→
The boy told his parents that he had finished his homework before supper.
直接引語變成間接引語時，虛擬語氣不變。
“We wish we didn‘t have to take exams. ”said the children . →
The children said that they wished they didn’t have to take exams.
〖注意點(diǎn) 2 〗
指示代詞、人稱代詞、時間狀語、地點(diǎn)狀語及方向性動詞也有變化。如直接引語中的 now變?yōu)?間接引語的 then 等。
注意如果轉(zhuǎn)述發(fā)生在當(dāng)?shù)亍?dāng)天的事，直接引語中的 come , here , today , this morning , yesterday , tomorrow 等不必改變。
He said, “I want this. ”→ He said that he wanted that.
He said, “I arrived yesterday morning.” → He said he had arrived the morning before.
He said, “I‘ll come here this evening.”→ He said he would come here this evening.
〖注意點(diǎn) 3 〗
直接引語是陳述句，間接引語為 that 引導(dǎo)的賓語從句。
She said to me, “I’m studying Japanese these days.”→
She told me (that) she was studying Japanese those days.
〖注意點(diǎn) 4 〗 直接引語是一般疑問句時，間接引語為whether / if 引導(dǎo)的賓語從句。
Mr. Howe asked, “Are you preparing for it?”→
Mr. Howe asked whether we were preparing for it.
如果是表示建議時可用 suggest / advise 來完成。
“Shall we meet at the theatre?” he said. → He suggested that we should meet at the theatre. = He suggested meeting at the theatre.
〖注意點(diǎn) 5 〗
直接引語是特殊疑問句時，間接引語為連接代詞（副詞）引導(dǎo)的賓語從句。
He asked, “Which one do you like best?”→ He asked which one you liked best.
〖注意點(diǎn) 6 〗
直接引語是反意疑問句時，間接引語為 whether / if 引導(dǎo)的賓語從句。

〖注意點(diǎn) 7 〗
直接引語是祈使句時應(yīng)把間接引語的句式改為 ask , tell , order 等+ 賓語 + 不定式。間接引語有時可以用 that 引導(dǎo)的賓語從句。以 let 開頭的祈使句變間接引語時要選用 suggest + ing ， suggest + that 從句，ask sb to do , advise sb to 。
The Party secretary said, “Let’s do our best to win still greater victory.”→ The Party secretary advised that we should do our best to win still greater victory.
〖注意點(diǎn) 8 〗
