句型重點解析 UNIT 5.6

 UNIT 6

 

1. S + V + 疑問詞 + S (+Aux) + V....

說明

此句型為間接問句，其中以疑問詞引導之名詞子句(S (+Aux) + V...)在整個句子當中做為動詞或介系詞之受詞。特別注意名詞子句應以直述句語序陳述，不需倒裝。

 

例句

1. A statement of purpose (SOP) is a short essay about yourself that explains why you want to study a subject at a college or university.
(讀書計畫(SOP)是一篇關於你自己的短文，其中解釋你為何想要就讀某大學系所的原因。)

(Peter還太年輕以致於無法知道他未來真正想做什麼。)

3. Cindy is always careless about her study. She even doesn’t know when the entrance exam would be held.
(Cindy對於她的課業總是漫不經心。她甚至不知道什麼時候要舉行入學考試。)

 

2. Subordinating Conjunctions: after, before, when, while, because, since, although, if, etc.

說明

這些詞統稱為從屬連接詞(subordinating conjunctions)，用來引導副詞子句，若副詞子句置於句首時記得加上逗號與主要子句分開。

 

例句

1. Since an SOP is required in applications to many colleges and universities, it’s better to prepare one early on.
(由於許多大專院校都要求在申請入學時須附上讀書計畫，所以最好儘早準備。)

2. The goods had already been sold out when I arrived at the department store.
(當我到達百貨公司時，商品已經賣完了。)

3. Although it is raining outside, Henry still goes jogging as usual.
(雖然外面正在下雨，Henry還是像平常一樣去慢跑。)

 

3.	It’s better to + V….	最好是……
	It’s better +if + S + V….

說明

此句型用來提供建議，better後可接不定詞(to V)或由if引導的子句。若想要加強語氣，則可把better改為best。

 

例句

1. Since an SOP is required in applications to many colleges and universities, it’s better to prepare one early on.
→ Since an SOP is required in applications to many colleges and universities, it’s
   better if you prepare one early on.
   (由於許多大專院校都要求在申請入學時須附上讀書計畫，所以最好儘早準

備。)

→ Mom is coming back. It’s best if you clean up your messy room.
   (媽媽要回來了。你最好把你凌亂的房間整理整理。)

 

4. allow sb to V

說明

此句型表「使某人得以做某事」或「允許某人做某事」，受詞「人」之後接不定詞(to V)當受詞補語，表示「可以做的事情或動作」。

 

例句

1. I believe your program will allow me to develop my skills and help me prepare for both further study and my future career.
(我相信貴校的課程將讓我發展技能，而且對我將來的深造及職業生涯都有所助益。)

3. No one is allowed to eat or drink in the MRT station.
(捷運站內不可飲食。)

 

5. not only...but (also)...　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 不僅……而且……

說明

1. not only...but (also)...是一個對等連接詞片語，前後所連接的單字、片語、子句等的詞性及時態都必須相同。

2. 此片語前後連接不同主詞時，動詞隨著最接近者變化。

3. not only置於句首時，會形成倒裝句型“Not only + Aux/be + S + V..., but + S + (also) +V....”。

 

例句

1. My project had to do with helping my school set up a recycling program that not only was environmentally friendly, but also raised money for the school’s sports teams.
