BUU8 Sentence Patterns

 

Unit 8

1. Not until + S + V... + Aux + S + V....

說明 本句型為not...until之倒裝用法,表示「直到……才……」。當句中出現not...until時,可將not until及副詞子句置於句首,並將助動詞移至主詞前形成倒裝,用來加強否定的語氣。

例句 1. These early people did not begin to favor their left or right hands until they had invented more sophisticated tools. 

Not until they had invented more sophisticated tools did these early people begin to favor their left or right hands. (直到他們發明出更精密的工具,這些早期人類才開始偏好使用左手或右手。)

2. Sam did not stop playing video games until his mother scolded him.

Not until Sam's mother scolded him did he stop playing video games.

(直到他媽媽把他罵了一頓,Sam才停止打電動。)

3. Helen did not talk to Larry until he apologized to her.

Not until Larry apologized to Helen did she talk to him.

(直到LarryHelen道歉,Helen才跟他說話。)

練習 1. My parents did not buy me a smartphone until I turned 16. (改寫句子)

                                                               

2. Danny did not leave the office until he finished his job. (改寫句子)

                                                               

 

2. whoever = anyone who

whatever = anything that

whichever = any/either one of them that

說明 此句型為複合關係代名詞whoeverwhateverwhichever的用法。複合關係代名詞相當於「先行詞 + 關係代名詞」,在名詞子句中可當主詞也可當受詞。

例句 1. In English, whatever (= anything that) is related to right is thought to be good and correct.

(在英文中,任何和「右邊」有關係的都被認為是好且正確的。)

2. You can choose whichever (= any/either one of them that) you like to bring home.

3. S + have/has + Vpp

說明 現在完成式的句型用來強調「過去所發生的事情」對「現在情況的影響或結果」。通常用來表示以下三種狀態:

1. 表示「從過去某時起一直持續到現在的動作或狀態」,通常與「for + 一段時間」或「since + 過去某個時間點」連用。Last/past

2. 表示「動作剛完成或尚未完成」,通常與alreadyjustyet連用。

3. 表示「截至目前為止已有過或未有過的經驗」,常和everneveronce等時間副詞連用。

例句 1. Many researchers have studied why some people are right­handed and others are left­handed.

(許多研究人員研究了為什麼有些人是右撇子而其他人是左撇子。)

2. 醫生尚未發現治療這個疾病的方法。

The doctors               a way to treat this disease       .

 

4. N + who/which/that + V... → N + V­ing

說明 1. 關係子句中的關係代名詞若為主格時,可將關係代名詞省略,並將子句中的動詞改為現在分詞(V­ing)簡化成現在分詞片語,來修飾先行詞(N)

2. 若關係子句為進行式,則直接省略關係代名詞及be動詞,保留V­ing 即可。

例句 1. In contrast, the word “left” comes from an Old English word which means “weak or worthless.”

→ In contrast, the word “left” comes from an Old English word meaning “weak or worthless.”

(相反地,「左」這個字由古英文而來,意思是「脆弱的、毫無價值」。)


2. The man who is wearing a green jacket is my brother.

The man wearing a green jacket is my brother.

(那位穿著綠色外套的男人是我的哥哥。)

3. The machine that is making weird noises seems to be broken.

2. Do you know the girl who is singing on the stage?  (用分詞片語改寫)

                                                          

 

5. ...N, who/whom/which...

說明 非限定用法的關係子句用來說明對象很明確的先行詞,前面須有逗點隔開,且關係子句省略後主句的意義仍然完整。注意,此句型中的關係代名詞不可省略,且關係代名詞that不適用於此句型。

例句 1. Furthermore, left­handed people can now even celebrate their “rights” annually on August 13, which is International Left­Handers Day.

(此外,左撇子現在可以在每年八月十三國際左撇子日慶祝自己的權益。)
