UNIT 3
1. such (+ a/an) + Adj + N +
that + S + V...
說明
1.
such為形容詞,後面可接可數或不可數名詞。之後再接that子句,such所修飾的內容表
「原因」,而that所引導的子句則表示「結果」,意為「如此……以至於……」。
2. 另外so + Adj/Adj + that + S +V...同樣常用於表示「如此……以至於……」的意思,但強調的重點有所不同。
例句
1.The Ghost Festival is such an important occasion
that businesses in
(鬼月是如此重要的時刻,以至於各行各業常燒紙錢來祈求好運。)

Festival is so important that business in Taiwan often burn “ghost

→ Venus is so
beautiful that people on the streets stare at her.
(Venus是如此的美麗,以至於在路上的人們都盯著她。)
2. It
+ be + believed/considered/said (+ that) + S + V....
→ S + be +
believed/considered/said + to V....
說明
1. 此組句型原來以that子句為主詞,但往往因為that子句過長而影響閱讀。因此,便以虛主詞it代替that子句,將that子句改放在句末。
2. 另一種用法則是把that子句的主詞置於句首,後面的動詞改為to V。
3. be動詞可依時態而作變化,如is、was、has been等。

1. It is believed that the gates of
hell are opened on the first day of Ghost Month.

→ The old man is considered to be the richest man in the town.

3. ...N
+ who/whom/which/that...
說明
1.
此句型為關係子句的限定用法,關係代名詞who、whom、which、that所引導的句子對先行詞有限定及修飾的作用。
2.
關係子句與前面所修飾的先行詞之間不可加逗點。
例句
1. Families set extra seats at tables for relatives
who/that had recently passed away.
(家家戶戶會在餐桌前準備另外的座位給最近過世的親戚。)

3. The restaurant which/that serves
delicious and cheap food is always full of customers.
(那間提供好吃又便宜食物的餐廳總是充滿了客人。)
4. less
Adj (+ than...) (比……)較不……
說明
1. 此句型為形容詞比較級的否定說法,須在形容詞原級前加上less。
2. 形容詞後面若再加上than,便有與其他事物比較的意味,則相當於...not as + Adj + as...的意思。
3. 如果是形容詞最高級的否定說法,須在形容詞原級前加上the least。
例句
1. Later, people gradually became less
serious about these old Halloween traditions.
(之後,人們逐漸變得較不認真看待這些萬聖節的傳統了。)
2. I think that Iron Man 2 is less
exciting than Iron Man 1.

pair is the least expensive.
(在店裡所有的鞋子當中,這雙是最不貴的。)
5. S1
+ V1..., while + S2 + V2....
說明
1. 從屬連接詞while在此用來表示「對比」,為「然而,但是」之意。while所引導的從屬子句可以放在句首、句中及句末,和主要子句作對比。
2. whereas也有相同的意思,但比while來得正式。
