In the beginning, I was just as excited as my mother, maybe even more so. (Passage A, Unit 5)
这句句末的so是一个替代词(pro-form)，替代上文提到的 just as excited as my mother。句中的even more so意为 even more excited than my mother。
在英语中，用替代词替代上文出现过的句子成分或分句称为替代(substitution)。替代是连接上下文，避免重复的重要手段之一。当so用作替代词时，主要可替代上文出现过的主语补语、谓语部分(predication)或分句。当主语补语在上文中出现过时，在下
26
文中可用so来替代，以避免重复。例如：
He was very angry, and his wife was even more so. Mary looks pretty, but her sister doesn?t look so.
可以用so替代的谓语部分主要包括“动词+宾语”、“动词+状语”、“动词+宾语+状语”等结构。如果这些结构已在上文出现过，在下文中便可用do so来替代。例如： Jane has read the newspaper today, and she will do so tomorrow.
Dr. Smith always examines his patients carefully, and he is doing so now.
在主语补语或谓语部分被替代的情况下，如果上文和下文都是肯定陈述句，而它们的主语又不相同，通常要用“so + be / do +主语”的结构。例如： Mary looks pretty, and so does her sister.
My father caught a cold, and so did my mother. I answered the question correctly, and so did Lisa.
这种结构常出现在日常对话中用于简短的答语，表示相同或类似的情况。例如： A: Tom came to the class early. B: So did I.
A: The chair needs repairing.
B: So does the one you?re sitting on. 如果上文和下文都是否定陈述句，则下文要用“neither / nor + be / do +主语”的结构。例如：
She doesn?t speak good English, and neither / nor does her husband. A: I?m not worried about it. B: Neither / Nor am I.
有必要注意的是：“so + be / do +主语”或“neither / nor +be / so + 主语”结构中的be / do只是最常用的形式。如上文的动词短语中包含除be / do以外的助动词或情态助动词，则下文中要用相同的助动词或情态助动词。例如： He hasn?t come yet, and neither have his friends. A: Tom mustn?t come back very late. B: Neither / Nor must his brothers.
用替代词so替代分句的情况常见于充当宾语的名词分句，这些宾语分句常跟在一些表示看法、意见的动词之后，这些动词常见的有believe, be afraid, expect, hope, imagine, say, tell, think, suppose等。例如： A: Does Tom agree with you? B: I believe so.
A: Was she an actress when she was young? B: I?ve been told so.
对类似上述问题的否定回答常用not作替代词，也可用“动词否定式+so”。例如： A: Is there going to be a meeting tomorrow? B: I suppose not. / I don?t suppose so.
27
请注意：并非上面列出的所有动词都能同时用于“not作替代词”和“动词否定式 + so”两种形式。例如： I?m afraid not.
[误] I?m not afraid so. I hope not.
[误] I don?t hope so.
