這裡的子句跟句子簡單地講了一下,總之寫出來的句子一定都是要在四種句子裡面,獨立子句跟非獨立子句的結合也就只有三種形式:名詞子句,形容詞子句,副詞子句。寫句子跟講句子的留意一下。才十點,又超不多要睡了,大家晚安:)
噢,差點忘了,有錄影片:
D 子句的種類 types of clauses
子句有三種,分名詞子句、形容詞子句跟副詞子句。
1. 名詞子句 noun clause:整個子句當名詞用,不是當句子的主詞就是受詞,主詞補語。
2. 形容詞子句 adjective clause:整個子句當形容詞用,一定是用來修飾名詞。
- 副詞子句 adverb clause:整個子句當副詞用,像時間子句,條件子句等都是副詞子句,整個子句當副詞用,用來修飾動詞或整個句子。
1. 名詞子句 noun clause
I think that Jessie is a crazy teacher.
( S V ) —noun clause
S V O
That the earth is round is true. It’s true that the earth is round.
( S V ) —noun clause
S V SC
I don’t know where she lives. Where does she live? I don’t if it will rain tomorrow?
( S V ) —noun clause
S V O
名詞子句放在最前面帶領子句的有that,whether,if,疑問詞what、when、where、who等。that除了在句首外一般可以省略,其他的疑問詞等則不可省。
2. 形容詞子句 adjective clause
The book which I read last night was great. The book was great. I read the book last night.
( S V ) —adjective clause
S V SC
I like movies that make me laugh. I like movies. The movies make me laugh.
( S V ) —adjective clause
S V O
I’ll never forget the day when I got married.
( S V ) —adjective clause
S V O
形容詞子句又叫關係子句。而放在最前面帶領形容詞子句的字就叫做關係代名詞,如that、what、who、when、where、whose等。通常做為受詞的關係代名詞如which、whom、that,可以省略,可是在限定子句時又不能省。名詞與副詞子句都有who、what、where這些疑問詞,所以容易混淆。其實只要注意子句本身的功能與修飾的對象,應該就可以分得很清楚了。
3. 副詞子句 adverb clause
He ate three hamburgers because he was very hungry.
( S V ) –adverb clause
S V O
If you don’t have enough money, you can give it to me next time.
( S V ) –adverb clause
S V
He was driving while he was talking on the phone.
( S V ) –adverb clause
S V
副詞子句一般是大家最熟悉的,種類也最多。副詞子句可以用來表達時間、因果、對比、條件、讓步等等。副詞子句最前面帶領子句的字叫做從屬連接詞subordinating conjunctions,是用來連接主要子句跟副詞子句的橋樑。
當主要子句在前面時,因為很清楚的可以知道副詞子句是由從屬連接詞開始,所以不需要逗號,如第一與第三句。而當副詞子句在句首時,要有一個逗號清楚地把副詞子句跟主要子句隔開來,如第二個句子。當然這些從屬連接詞是都不能省略的囉。
例外:
當while表示對比,或者是though, 或although在中間時,也會有逗號,但是其他連接詞在中間時,則不需要逗號。
Schools in the north tend to be better equipped, while those in the south are relatively poor.
I thought he’d been drinking, though I wasn’t completely sure.
You can copy down my answers, although I’m not sure if they’re right.
E 句子的種類 types of sentences
四個句子的種類
1. simple sentences 簡單句
I love beef.
2. compound sentences 並合句
I love beef, but I hate pork.
3. complex sentences 複合句
Although I love beef, I hate pork.
4.compound-complex sentences 混合句
My sister who lives in Canada loves beef, and she eats it three meals a day.
- 簡單句是由一個獨立子句形成的一個句子。可能有一個以上的主詞跟動詞,但整體視為
一組,所以還是一個簡單句。
My brother and I cook and eat beef every day.
- 並合句是由對等連接詞(and, but, so, for, or, nor, yet,可以用fanboys記)將兩個獨立
子句連接而形成的一個句子。
I love beef, and I love pork. I love beef, but I don’t like beef noodles.
- 複合句是把一個或一個以上的從屬連接詞(如because, although, when, before等)所帶
領的非獨立子句與一個獨立子句結合成的一個句子。可能包
含了一個名詞子句,或形容詞子句,或副詞子句。
Before I go to bed, I brush my teeth.
I was born and grew up in Taipei, which is the capital of Taiwan.
I can’t believe she is only 17.
4. 混合句是結合了兩個以上的獨立子句跟一個或一個以上的非獨立子句形成的一個句子。
I couldn’t decide where I should work or what I should do, so I did nothing.
F 並合句 Compound Sentence:用對等連接詞連接句子
要把兩個句子連接在一起的時候,有不同的方式。但是必須要按照適當的句型,用適當的連接詞來連接。千萬不要用逗號把兩個獨立子句連接在一起。對等連接詞可以用來合併句子,形成並合句。
對等連接詞 coordination conjunctions 有七個:常用的是 and, but, so, or 其他還有 nor, for 跟yet。可用fanboys來記:for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so
For 用來表原因:I am very tired, for I worked very hard today.
And 用來表達同等的概念:I am very tired, and I want to rest for a few minutes.
Nor 用來表達否定的選擇:I am not tired, nor am I hungry right now.
But 用來表達對比:I am tired, but I have no time to rest now.
Or 用來表達選擇:I will take a nap, or I will go out jogging.
Yet 用來表達對比:I will take a nap, yet I am unable to relax.
So 用來表達結果:I am tired, so I will take a nap.
