句型重點解析 UNIT 2.6

UNIT 6

 

1. because + S + V... → because of + N

說明

because為從屬連接詞,引導表「原因」的從屬子句,不可直接接名詞或動名詞,且不可單獨成句;而because of為介系詞片語,後須接名詞或名詞片語。兩者皆可置於句首或句中,置於句首時,須加逗點隔開兩個子句。

 

例句

1. Because people like this “green” way of living, more and more companies are now offering LOHAS goods.

Because of this “green” way of living, more and more companies are now offering LOHAS goods.

(由於這種「綠色」的生活方式,越來越多公司現在提供樂活的商品。)

2. The ball game was canceled because it rained heavily.

→The ball game was canceled because of the heavy rain.

(由於下大雨,所以球賽取消了。)

3. Because there was a big earthquake, many houses were destroyed.

Because of the big earthquake, many houses were destroyed.

(因為大地震,很多房子都損毀了。)

 

2. N + who/which/that + V... → N + V-ing...

說明

此句型為關係子句簡化成「分詞片語」的用法。當關係代名詞為主格時,可將其省略,並將關係子句裡的動詞改為表主動的現在分詞(V-ing);若關係子句為進行式時,則只須將關係代名詞和be動詞省略即可。

 

例句

1. LOHAS has become a term which/that describes a healthy and earth-friendly lifestyle.

→LOHAS has become a term describing a healthy and earth-friendly lifestyle.

(樂活已經成為一個描述一種健康且環保的生活方式的用語了。)

2. Do you know the man who/that sits over there?

→Do you know the man sitting over there? (你認識坐在那邊的那個男子嗎?)

3. The little cat which/that is walking toward us looks cute.

→The little cat walking toward us looks cute.

(朝我們走來的小貓看起來很可愛。)

 

3. what = the thing(s) which/that

說明

1. what在此為複合關係代名詞,可作主詞、受詞或補語,表示「非特定的事物」,等同於the thing(s) which/that。複合關係代名詞兼具先行詞和關係代名詞的作用,相當於「先行詞 + 關係代名詞」。

2. 注意,當what作為主詞引導名詞子句時,須視為單數,後接單數動詞。

 

例句

1. What the student does is an example of LOHAS.

The things which/that the student does are an example of LOHAS.

(這位學生所做的事便是一個樂活的例子。)

2. Cathy happily showed me what she bought today.

→Cathy happily showed me the thing(s) which/that she bought today.

(Cathy 開心地向我展示她今天買的東西。)

3. I don’t think what Eric said was right.

→I don’t think the thing which/that Eric said was right.

(我不認為Eric 說的事情是對的。)

 

4. N-Adj

說明

此為「名詞 + 形容詞」所構成的複合形容詞。複合形容詞是由兩種或兩種以上獨立的字組合而成的形容詞,這些字之間通常會加上連字號(-­)。複合形容詞有非常多種,以下概列九種常見的組合:

1. N + V-ingtime-consuming (耗費時間的)peace-loving (愛好和平的)

2. N + Vpphandmade (手工的)man-caused (人為的)

3. N + Adjworld-famous (世界聞名的)fat-free (不含脂肪的)

4. Adj + V-inggood-looking (好看的)sweet-smelling (香氣迷人的)

5. Adj + Vppnewborn (新生的)red-dyed (染成紅色的)

6. Adv + V-ingfast-moving (快速的)long-lasting (持久的)

7. Adv + Vppcarefully-made (仔細製作的)well-known (知名的)

8. Adj + N-edgood-hearted (好心腸的)middle-aged (中年的)

9. 數量詞 + 單數名詞:名詞多為時間、價值、長度等的數值,ten-minute (十分鐘的)five-story (五層樓的)

 

例句

1. We can all become earth-friendly people by living a LOHAS lifestyle.

(我們可以藉由過著樂活的生活方式成為對地球友善的人。)

2. Hans Christian Andersen has been considered a world-famous writer of children’s stories. (安徒生被視為一位舉世聞名的兒童故事作家。)

3. Olivia is on a diet, so she only drinks fat-free milk.

(Olivia 正在節食,所以她只喝脫脂牛奶。)

 

5. S + V + rather than + N/V...
→ S + V + instead of + N/V-ing...

說明

1. rather thaninstead of均為「而不是……」或「代替……」的意思,不過rather than後面須接原形動詞,instead of則須接現在分詞。

2. instead of也可以副詞instead替代,instead表示「反而,作為替代」的意思,可置於句首或句尾;置於句首時,需以逗號與句子隔開。要注意的是,instead所接的句子表示「有去做的事情」,而instead of接的句子則意味著「沒有去做的事情」。

 

例句

1. We take the stairs rather than elevators, so we can save more electricity.

We take the stairs instead of elevators, so we can save more electricity.

(我們走樓梯而不是搭電梯,所以能夠節省更多的電力。)

2. We can walk or take a bus rather than ride a scooter.

→We can walk or take a bus instead of riding a scooter.

(我們可以用走的或是搭乘公車,以代替騎摩托車。)

3. We use our own shopping bags instead of using the paper or plastic bags from the store.

→We don’t use the paper or plastic bags from the store. Instead, we use our own shopping bags.

→We don’t use the paper or plastic bags from the store. We use our own shopping bags instead.

(我們不使用店家的紙袋或塑膠袋,而用自己的購物袋作為替代。)
