1. wh + S + V → wh +
to V
說明 疑問詞wh (whom、what、when、where、which、how)引導的名詞子句中,
若句意為「應該……」或「可以……」,通常可簡化成名詞片語(wh + to V)。
此類的名詞子句中常搭配should、can或could等助動詞。
例句 1. Many household objects can be a great help to us, as long as we know how
we can use them.
→
Many household objects can be a great help to us, as long as we know how to use
them.

(只要我們知道如何使用,許多居家常備的物品可以幫上大忙。)

2. S + seem(s) to + V....
→ It seems (that) + S + V....
→ It seems (that) + S + V....
說明 1 此句型有推測的意味,用來表達「不確定的看法或推論」,意思為
「似 乎……,好像……」。句子中以人或具體的事物作主詞,後面則
以seem(s) to加上原形動詞來表示。注意seem不能為進行式。
2 另外,此句型也能以第二個句型替換。句子中的it為虛主詞,用以代替
that所引導的子句(真主詞)。當從第一個句型換成第二個句型時,須注意
動詞的時態變化。
例句 1. Cola seems to be the same as any other beverage.
→ It seems that Cola is the same as any other beverage.
(可樂似乎和其他飲料一樣。)
→ It seems that Cola is the same as any other beverage.
(可樂似乎和其他飲料一樣。)

3. in fact 其實

和as a matter of fact。

lives.
(事實上,許多居家用品可以對我們的日常生活起很大的幫助。)

4. S + make + it + Adj (+ for sb) + to V....
說明 1此用法表示「使……變得……,使……成為……」的意思。make為不完
全及物動詞,加上受詞後還須加上形容詞作為受詞補語,才能使語意完整。
2此句型中真正的受詞為後面的不定詞片語(to V),爲避免頭重腳輕,故用
虛主詞it來代替。

away.
