句型重點解析 UNIT 4.5

 UNIT 5

 1. S + make/find/think/consider + it + Adj (+ for sb) + to V....

說明

1. 不完全及物動詞make、find、think、consider加上受詞之後,必須再加上形容詞作為受詞補語,才能使句意完整。

2. it在此句型中為虛受詞,真受詞為之後的不定詞片語(to V)。

 

例句

1. My busy job and family life made it extremely difficult for me to visit her regularly.  (我忙碌的工作及家庭生活讓我很難經常去探望她。)

2. I found it dangerous to ride a motorcycle without a helmet.

(我發現騎機車沒戴安全帽很危險。)

3. Most companies consider it necessary for employees to have basic computer skills.  (大部分的公司認為員工需要有基本的電腦技能。)

 

2. S + V + as if + S + were/V-ed....

說明

1. as if為連接詞,表示「彷彿,好像」,用來引導「與現在事實不符」的假設句。

2. 其中as if所引導的副詞子句,be動詞不論人稱一律用were;一般動詞或助動詞則一律用過去式。

 

例句

1. You look as if you were going to attend a banquet for a king.

(你看起來好像是要去參加國王的宴會。)

2. Michelle always talks as if she knew everything.

(Michelle總是說得好像她什麼都知道一樣。)

3. Troy eats up all the food on the table as if he starved for days.

(Troy吃光了桌上所有的食物,彷彿他已經餓了好幾天了。)

 

3. with + 抽象名詞 = 狀態副詞

說明

介系詞with加上「抽象名詞」形成副詞片語,可代換成狀態副詞;常見的搭配有:with/in surprise = surprisingly「驚訝地」、with ease = easily「輕易地」、with kindness = kindly「親切地」、with anger = angrily「生氣地」、with care = carefully「小心地」等。

 

例句

1. At first, my mother reacted with surprise (= surprisingly) to my invitation.

(起先,我媽媽對我的邀約感到很驚訝。)

2. Betty takes care of these flowers with care (= carefully).

(Betty小心地照顧這些花。)

3. Sebastian passed the exam with ease (= easily).

(Sebastian輕鬆地通過了考試。)

 

4. used to V                                       以前經常……

說明

此句型用來表示「過去的狀況或經常發生的動作」。另外有兩個易混淆的句型, “sb + be used to + N/V-ing”表示「某人習慣……」;“sth + be used + to V”表示「……被用作……」。

 

例句

1. It was I who used to read menus to you, but now it’s the other way around.

(以前都是我念菜單給你聽的,但是現在卻反過來了。)

2. Rita, an exchange student from the U.S., is used to the life here in Taiwan.

(Rita,來自美國的交換學生,已經習慣臺灣這裡的生活了。)

3. The giant machine is used to dig the tunnel.

(這個巨大的機器是用來挖隧道的。)

 

5. Vpp + N

說明

此句型為過去分詞(Vpp)當形容詞的用法,用來修飾後面的名詞。因為和其修飾的名詞關係為被動,故用過去分詞(Vpp);此外,若與其修飾的名詞關係為主動,則用現在分詞(V-ing)。

 

例句

1. It was then that I realized how important it is to give our loved ones the time they deserve.  (就在那時我才了解到多花點時間和我們所愛的人相處是多麼重要。)

2. The stolen car was found by the police.  (被偷的車子被警方找到了。)

3. We lowered our voice in order not to wake up my sleeping father.

(我們降低音量以免吵醒正在睡覺的父親。)

 UNIT 4

 1. S + has/have/had + difficulty/trouble/a hard time + (in) V-ing

說明

此句型用以表示「在……方面有困難,很難做到……」。其後接介系詞in 再加上動名詞(V-ing)當作補語,但in常被省略而直接接V-ing。

2. A + be + Adj-er/more Adj + than + B

→ B + be + less Adj + than + A

→ B + be + not + as Adj as + A

說明

第一個句型為形容詞比較級的用法,表示「A比B較為……」;而第二個句型是第一個的反向說法,為劣等比較,表示「B不比A……」;第三個則為形容詞原級比較的否定用法,表示「B不如A……」。

 

例句

1. Trying a small amount of everything first is wiser than filling your plate up with a lot of food.

(每種東西都先嚐一小口比起把你的盤子裝滿許多食物來得明智。)

→ Filling your plate up with a lot of food is less wise than trying a small amount of everything first.

(Oliver的哥哥不像Oliver這麼勇敢。)

 

3. S + V... + whatever (S) + V....                    ……任何,無論什麼……

說明

whatever為複合關係代名詞,代替的是anything that;在子句中可當作主詞或受

詞用。

 

例句

1. It is diplomatic to take a bite of whatever is being served to you in order not to offend.  (為了不冒犯別人,嚐一口供應在你面前的食物是一種得體的作法。)

(Dora會掏錢買任何和凱蒂貓有關聯的東西。)

 

4. A be considered (to be) B                     A被認為(或視為)是B

說明

此被動語態句型表示「A被認為(或視為)是B」,B可以是名詞或形容詞,而to be

可以省略。

 

例句

1. A tourist is considered (to be) someone who just travels around on a tour bus that is full of people from his or her own country.

(所謂的遊客被認為是只和自己的同鄉共乘遊覽車四處遊覽的人。)

說明

rather than用來連接兩個文法上有對等關係的字詞,表達「而不是……」之意,

其後可接名詞、形容詞、副詞和動名詞等。此外,rather than通常可以和instead

of替換使用,但需注意instead of後面只能接名詞或動名詞。

 

例句

1. It is the thought rather than the taste that stops you from enjoying the meal.

(是你的想法而非味道讓你無法享用那樣餐點。)
