To sum up 是什么意思?总结要点,代词放在 sum 和 up 中间

To sum up 表示“总的来说”。总结报告时,把 the report 换成 it,位置却不能照旧:这个短语对代词有什么要求?

To sum up 表示总的来说、概括而言,用来在作文、邮件或会议结束时简短回顾要点。动词 sum up 本身就是总结,例如 sum up the discussion 是简要概括讨论内容。

练习在对话中灵活使用英语词汇

开始学习

To sum up, + summary; sum up + noun; sum it/them up

  • To sum up, cities should make cycling safer rather than simply building more car parks.
  • At the end of the meeting, our manager summed up the main decisions in five minutes.
  • So, to sum up, we're meeting at nine, and everyone brings their own lunch.

修改原因

修改前Summarising, remote work has more benefits than drawbacks for most office staff.

修改后To sum up, remote work has more benefits than drawbacks for most office staff.

这里容易只写一个 Summarising 来引出结论。但这个位置通常使用固定表达 To sum up,单独的 Summarising 不是自然的总结开场。修改只替换开头,其余句子保持不变。

Cambridge Dictionary

代词要放在 sum 和 up 之间:sum it up、sum them up。名词则也可以放在 up 后面:sum up the results。作文中,To sum up 和 In conclusion 常可互换,但 To sum up 语气稍轻,也适合日常交流,例如工作会议的结尾。

动手练习

The report is twenty pages long, but the director wants us to ___ in one sentence.

(sum it up / sum up it)

查看答案

sum it up — 代词 it 放在 sum 和 up 中间,所以选 sum it up。不能说 sum up it;普通名词则可以放在后面,例如 sum up the report。

会议后给工作群或学习群写一条简短消息。以 To sum up 开头,列出已经达成一致的两件事。

To sum up, Anna will send the budget by Wednesday, and we'll meet again next Monday at ten.
