A Community Day in the City
Bearry and Lexi gathered at a community fair near the train station. Visitors could get around by train or bus. A local team showed garments made from recycled fabric. The team gathered feedback and hoped to gain support for a repair program. Lexi explained that a digital skills gap can make some services harder to reach. Generally speaking, people get along when they work toward the same goal. In the evening, everyone gazed at Venus. People gasped when the clouds opened and the bright planet appeared. The fair ended with a plan for a more connected city.

4 小測驗

1. Which sentence is correct?
2. Which sentence means that people watched Venus carefully?
3. How can visitors move around the city?
4. Which sentence means that the team is collecting feedback now?
  • 1. B — 表示「收集意見」時,gather 後面直接接受詞 feedback。
  • 2. B — 固定搭配是 gaze at + 人或物;at 後面的 Venus 是介系詞片語的一部分。
  • 3. A — 交通方式用 by + 交通工具;get around 表示四處移動。
  • 4. B — 被動進行式是 is/are being + 過去分詞;gathered 表示 feedback 正受到收集。

5 完全及物動詞:動詞後面需要直接受詞

A. 主詞做動作,直接影響受詞
S + V + O
The team gathered feedback.
團隊收集意見。
B. 主詞正在對受詞做動作(主動,不是被動)
S + be + V-ing + O
The team is gathering feedback.
團隊正在收集意見。
C. 受詞移到句首,變成被動句的主詞
S + be + p.p. + by + 人
Feedback was gathered by the team.
意見由團隊收集。
D. 受詞正在被處理:being 不能少
S + be + being + p.p. + by + 人
Feedback is being gathered by the team.
意見正由團隊收集中。(不是 is gathering by)
E. at/with/by 後面的名詞不是直接受詞
V + at/with/by + N
People gazed at Venus.
人們凝視著金星。(不是 People gazed Venus.)
F. gather 兩種用法:收集直接接受詞,聚集用 at + 地點
gather + O ↔ gather at + 地點
The team gathered feedback at the station.
團隊在車站收集了意見。(不是 gathered at feedback)

有些動詞的動作會直接影響一個人或一件事,因此動詞後面需要直接受詞。先問:動作直接影響誰或什麼?可以在動詞後面問 what 或 whom 嗎?受詞能不能移到句首,形成自然的被動句?如果動詞後面是 at、with 或 by 開頭的片語,後面的名詞通常是介系詞片語的一部分,不是直接緊接在動詞後面的受詞。

完全及物動詞的四段變化
句型先找到直接受詞,再決定使用主動、進行式、被動或被動進行式= 完全及物動詞後面需要直接受詞;受詞也可以在被動句中移到句首。看到 at、with 或 by 時,先把後面的內容當成介系詞片語整組學習。
完全及物動詞判斷圖
主詞+動詞+直接受詞+能改被動?
主動句的受詞可以變成被動句的主詞 The team / gathered / feedback / Feedback was gathered.
更多例子
  • The team is gathering feedback. Feedback is being gathered by the team. 團隊正在收集意見。/意見正由團隊收集中。
  • The store recycles old garments. Old garments are recycled by the store. 這家店回收舊服裝。/舊服裝由這家店回收。
小提醒

先用同一個動作、同一個受詞練四個短句,最容易看出主動句與被動句的關係。
