句型重點解析 UNIT 5.3

 

句型重點解析 UNIT 5.3

1. Noun Clauses as Subjects or Objects

說明1. 名詞子句可在句子中當主詞或受詞,視為單數。可引導名詞子句的連接詞有thatifwhetherwh-疑問詞等。

2. that所引導的名詞子句作受詞時常省略that,作主詞時則必須保留。

例句

1. The results showed (that) those participating in the experiment ate 73 percent more soup than normal.

 (結果顯示那些參與實驗的人喝下比平常多了73%的湯。)

2. That Ig Nobel research is fascinating should by now be clear.

 (現在搞笑諾貝爾獎研究的迷人之處應該很清楚了。)

3. What the murderer has done is unforgivable. (那個殺人犯的所作所為是不可原諒的。)

 

2. more A than B

說明:此句型表示「與其說是B,不如說是A」,AB的詞性須一致。

例句

1. Wansink stated that people eat more with their eyes than (with) their stomachs.

 (Wansink說明人們與其說是用胃吃東西,不如說是用眼睛吃東西。)

2. Susan is more diligent than intelligent. (與其說Susan聰明,不如說她努力。)

3. My father was more disappointed than angry about my grades.

 (與其說我父親對我的成績感到生氣,不如說他是感到失望。)

 

3. (Being +) Adj/Vpp..., S + V....

說明:形成分詞構句時,含有be動詞的副詞子句或被動語態可以只保留形容詞或過去分詞(Vpp),省略在句首的Being

例句

1. Because people were unaware of what was going on, they kept eating from these “bottomless bowls.”
Unaware of what was going on, people kept eating from these “bottomless bowls.”

    (因為人們不知道發生什麼事,他們持續從這些「無底碗」中進食。)

2. Since Jill is fond of sweets, she never finishes a meal without dessert.
Fond of sweets, Jill never finishes a meal without dessert.
   (
由於熱愛甜食,Jill一定要吃完甜點才結束一餐。)

3. Because Terry is interested in Chinese culture, he started to learn Chinese.
Interested in Chinese culture, Terry started to learn Chinese.
   (
因為對中華文化感興趣,Terry開始學中文。)

 

4. All (that)/What + S + have to do + is/was + (to) V....

說明1. 名詞子句All (that)/What + S + have to do為此句型的主詞,視為第三人稱單數。

2. 主詞補語為不定詞(to V),其to可省略。

3. 名詞子句中的All可換成What;而have to也可改用其他助動詞如mustshouldcan等代換。

例句

1. The researchers proved that all these farmers have to do is name the cows.
(
研究人員證明這些農夫所必須做的就是幫乳牛命名。)

2. The bus just left. All we can do is wait for the next one. (公車剛剛開走了。我們能做的就是等下一班。)

3. What the police had to do was find out where the bomb was. (警方必須做的是找出炸彈在哪裡。)

 

5. be (un)able to + V                    ()能夠……

此句型用來表示「能力」,常可和can(not)代換,需變化時態直接調整be動詞之時態即可。

例句

1. A woman wearing the Emergency Bra will be able to not only survive a terrorist attack but also save someone beside her. (穿著救難胸罩的女性不只能從恐怖攻擊中存活下來,也可以拯救她旁邊的人。)

2. To get the job, you should be able to speak fluent English. (要得到這份工作,你應該要能說流利的英文。)

3. Tim hurt his legs, so he was unable to run the marathon. (Tim的雙腿受傷,所以他無法參加馬拉松比賽。)

文法講座 1~3

 

文法講座一:關係代名詞


關係代名詞本身並無意思,但有兩大功能:
 a.)
可當「連接詞」,連接兩個句子。
 b.)
可當「代名詞」,取代之前已說過的「名詞」。

例句:穿著黑西裝的那個男人就是 Psy

 The man who wears a black suit is Psy. 

關係代名詞 who 當「代名詞」,代替之前已說過的「名詞」 the man。同時將以下這兩個句子「連接」起來,去除了贅字,也精簡了句型。
 [
句子1] The man is Psy.
 [
句子2] The man wears a black suit.

 

基本的關係代名詞和六大使用原則


基本的關係代名詞:

先行詞

主詞

受詞

所有格

who

whom

whose

事物

which

which

of which/ whose

人、事物

that

that


依關係代名詞所代替的名詞在句中所處位置,可分成「主格」、「受格」、「所有格」;且就該名詞屬性分成「人」和「事物」兩類。以下為使用關係代名詞時應注意的事項:  

1.
「受詞」性質的關係代名詞可省略,但若受詞性質的關係代名詞前有「介係詞」或「逗號」則不可省。

例句:媽媽昨天買的麵包很好吃。

(1) The bread which Mom bought yesterday is delicious.  (o)        

(2) The bread that Mom bought yesterday is delicious.  (o) 

(3) The bread Mom bought yesterday is delicious.  (o) 

因先行詞為 bread,連接兩句時需要「物受詞性質」的關係代名詞,故 that which 皆可[ (1) (2) ]。又受詞性質的關係代名詞可省略,故省略關係代名詞也對[ (3) ]


2. that
關係代名詞前不可有逗號,也不可放介係詞。

例句:我還沒見過 John 暗戀的那個女孩。  ( have a crush on N:暗戀…) 

(1) I haven’t met the girl that John has a crush on.  (o) 

(2) I haven’t met the girl whom John has a crush on.  (o)

(3) I haven’t met the girl John has a crush on.  (o)

(4) I haven’t met the girl on whom John has a crush.  (o)

(5) I haven’t met the girl on that John has a crush.  (x) 

(6) I haven’t met the girl on John has a crush.  (x) 

因先行詞為 the girl,介係詞 on 後方需搭配受詞,故連接兩句時需要「人受詞性質」的關係代名詞,that which 皆可[ (1) (2) ]。又受詞性質關係代名詞可省,故省略關係代名詞也對 [ (3) ]。也可將介係詞放在關係代名詞前 [ (4) ]。因 that 關係代名詞前不可有介係詞,故 (5) 是錯誤的句子。受詞性質的關係代名詞前有「介係詞」時,關係代名詞不可省略,故 (6) 是錯誤的句子。

3. that 
關係代名詞不具「所有格」的性質。

例句:我爸媽住在那棟屋頂是紅色的房子裡。  

(1) My parents live in the house whose roof is red.  (o) 

(2) My parents live in the house that roof is red.  (x) 

因先行詞為 the house。這裡的屋頂指的是「房子的」屋頂,故連接兩句時需要「物所有格性質」的關係代名詞 whose [ (1) ]that 關係代名詞不具所有格性質,故(2)是錯誤的句子。


4.
先行詞包括人和物時,只能用 that 關係代名詞。

例句:被困在著火的房子裡的老人和狗,已被救出。  

(1) An old man and his dog that were trapped in the burning house were saved.  (o) 

(2) An old man and his dog which were trapped in the burning house were saved.  (x) 

(3) An old man and his dog who were trapped in the burning house were saved.  (x) 

因先行詞為 an old man and his dog,有人也有物,故連接兩句時只能用既可代替人也可代替物的關係代名詞 that [ (1) ]which 關係代名詞只能代替「物」the dog, 不能代替「人」an old man,故 (2) 是錯誤的句子。who 關係代名詞只能代替「人」an old man,不能代替「物」the dog,故 (3) 是錯誤的句子。

 

5. who which 開頭的疑問句,句中關係代名詞必須用 that,才可避免和疑問詞 who/which 混淆。

例句:剛剛打電話來的那個女人是誰?  

(1) Who is the woman that just called?  (o) 

(2) Who is the woman who just called?  (x) 

因先行詞為 the woman,故連接兩句時需用「人主詞性質」的關係代名詞,前有疑問詞 who,為避免混淆,不可用關係代名詞 who(2) 為錯誤的句子,必須用關係代名詞 that [(1) ]

6. 先行詞前有「最高級」、「序數」、the onlythe verythe same 時,只能用 that 關係代名詞。

例句:這是我看過最棒的一部電影。  

(1) This is the best movie that I have ever seen.  (o)

(2) This is the best movie which I have ever seen.  (x)

因先行詞為 the best movie,當中包含最高級 the best,所以只能用關係代名詞 that [ (1) ],不能用關係代名詞 which(2) 是錯誤的句子。

 

 

關係子句的形成方式


關係子句的形成方式:
步驟 1:先找出兩個句子中「相同的名詞」,此即「先行詞」。
步驟 2:參考關係代名詞表格,找出合適的關係代名詞。

先行詞

主詞

受詞

所有格

who

whom

whose

事物

which

which

of which/ whose

人、事物

that

that

步驟 3:以「先行詞 + 關係代名詞 + 關係子句」的順序將兩句合併。
步驟 4:當「形容詞」使用的關係子句前不需打逗號,但當「補充說明」用的名詞關係子句前(及後) 就一定得打逗號。


實作:請用關係代名詞將以下這兩個句子併成一句。
   [
1 ]  The tiger has been put to death.
   [
2 ]  The tiger killed its keeper this morning.

1.
先找出兩個句子中相同的名詞 the tigerthe tiger 即為「先行詞」。
2.
第一句不動,觀察第二句,「物」性質的先行詞 the tiger ,放句首當「主詞」,因此可用「物主詞性質」的關係代名詞 “which” “that”來連接兩句。
3. 
以「先行詞 + 關係代名詞 + 關係子句」的順序將第二句併入第一句即得:

例句:今天早上咬死飼養員的那隻老虎已被安樂死。

The tiger which killed its keeper this morning has been put to death.
[
先行詞 [ 關代 ]  [ 關係子句 ]

關代所帶出的關係子句放在「名詞」the tiger 後面當「形容詞」使用,故關代前不需打逗號。

The tiger which killed its keeper this morning has been put to death.
[
先行詞 ]  [ 形容詞關係子句 ]              [ 動詞 ]

合併後的句子,主詞為單數的 the tiger,所以搭配單數動詞 has been put

 

 

限定和非限定關係子句


限定和非限定關係子句,一個逗號差很大。

大家在學限定和非限定關係子句時,老師總會說:關係代名詞前有「,」時為「非限定」用法的關係子句,而沒有「,」時為「限定」用法的關係子句。但我覺這樣解釋總讓我滿頭霧水,所以我傾向不討論限定還是非限定,而以「形容詞關係子句」和「名詞關係子句」來區分是否需在關係代名詞前打逗號

一般而言,
若關係子句當「形容詞」使用時,關係代名詞前不需打逗號。
若關係子句當「補充說明」的「名詞」使用時,關係代名詞前打逗號。

請看這組例句:

 

(1) Jeff has a girlfriend who lives in Taipei.
關係代名詞前不打逗號,當形容詞使用,要把關係子句翻成「的」。這句意思為:Jeff有個住在台北的女朋友。可見 Jeff 是個花心大少,女友眾多,其中一個女友住在台北。

(2) Jeff has a girlfriend, who lives in Taipei.
關係代名詞前打逗號,關係子句具補充說明的功能,可將這裡的逗號看成中文的括號。這句意思為:Jeff 有女朋友了 ( 她住在台北 )。可見 Jeff 只有一個女友,而且他的女友就住在台北。

 

 

 

文法講座二:關係副詞 where / when / why


關係副詞 = 介係詞 + which

關係副詞

地點

時間

理由

介係詞 + which

where

when

why

 

 

表示地點的關係副詞 where

 

例句:這就是他被謀殺的那間房間。  

未使用關代連接兩句時

This is the room.
He was murdered in the room. 

使用關代連接兩句

This is the room which he was murdered in.
This is the room in which he was murdered. 

改成代替地點的關係副詞:關係副詞 = 介係詞 + which

This is the room where he was murdered. 

 

 

表示時間的關係副詞 when

 

例句:我記得我們分手的那一天。 

未使用關代連接兩句時

I remember the day.
We broke up on the day. 

使用關代連接兩句

I remember the day which we broke up on.
I remember the day on which we broke up. 

改成代替時間的關係副詞:關係副詞 = 介係詞 + which

I remember the day when we broke up. 

 

 

表示理由的關係副詞 why

 

例句:這是我不原諒他的原因之一。

未使用關代連接兩句時

This is the reason.
I will never forgive him for the reason. 

使用關代連接兩句

This is the reason which I will never forgive him for.
This is the reason for which I will never forgive him. 

改成說明理由的關係副詞:關係副詞 = 介係詞 + which

This is the reason why I will never forgive him. 

 

 

 

文法講座三:代替「物」的複合關係代名詞 what


what 為表示「物」的複合關係代名詞。what = 先行詞 + 關係代名詞 。

當發現該填關係代名詞的格子前沒有先行詞 (即沒有名詞) 時,就可使用複合關係代名詞。
常用的複合關係代名詞有:what (代替物)whatever (代替物)whoever (代替人)whomever (代替人)whosever (代替人的) whichever (代替哪一個東西)

複合關係代名詞有兩大特色:
1.
前方沒有先行詞(即名詞)。
2.
複合關係代名詞所引出的子句,在句中當「名詞」使用。


例句:金錢常引誘我們做不該做的事。

未使用關係代名詞連接兩句時

Money often tempts us to do the things.
We shouldn't do the things.

使用關代連接兩句

Money often tempts us to do the things  which we shouldn't do.
                                 [
先行詞 ] [ 關代 ]

改成複合關係代名詞:複合關係代名詞 = 先行詞 + 關係代名詞。表示「物」的複合關係代名詞為what

Money often tempts us to do what we shouldn't do.                                                       [ 代替物的複合關代 ]

請注意 "what" "that" 關係子句的差別。關代 what 引出的是 "意思不完整" 的句子;而關代 that 引出的是 "意思完整" 的句子。請比較下列兩個例句:

例句:他辭職了這件事是千真萬確的。  

That he quit his job is true.
[
關代 ]  [ 關係子句 ]

That he quit his job  is true.
[
主詞 ]            [ 動詞 ]

關係代名詞 that 帶出一個意思完整的關係子句 [他辭去工作],整個句子放在句首當新句子的主詞。

例句:他說的話是真的。  

What he said is true.
[
關代 ]  [ 關係子句 ]

What he said is true.
[
主詞 ]       [ 動詞 ]

複合關係代名詞 what 帶出一個意思不完整的關係子句 [他說,說了甚麼?],整個句子放在句首當新句子的主詞。
