4 小測驗

1. Which sentence is correct?
2. Which sentence means that the wetland looks healthy?
3. What can you say when the sky changes from light to dark?
4. Officials warn people about the storm. What should people do?
  • 1. B — feel 在這裡連接 air 和形容詞 hot,不是直接接名詞 heat。
  • 2. C — 第三人稱單數主詞使用 seems,後面接形容詞 healthy。
  • 3. A — turn + adjective 可以表示顏色或狀態改變。
  • 4. D — 固定搭配是 head to + 地點,表示前往某地。

5 Be and Linking Verbs:描寫狀態、變化與感受

A. be 描寫主詞的狀態
S + be + adjective
The soil is dry.
土壤是乾的。
B. be 描寫主詞的身分或分類
S + be + noun
This marsh is a habitat for birds.
這片沼澤地是鳥類的棲地。
C. become、turn 和 get 表示狀態改變
S + become/turn/get + adjective

有些動詞不把動作直接施加到受詞,而是把主詞和後面的形容詞或名詞連起來。後面的內容稱為主詞補語,用來說明主詞是什麼、處於什麼狀態,或給說話者的觀察。

用連綴動詞改變描述角度
句型S + be + adjective → S + linking verb + adjective= 連綴動詞後面接主詞補語,用來描述主詞的狀態、身分、變化、外觀或感受。
連綴動詞判斷圖
主詞+連綴動詞+主詞補語+描述主詞?
healthy 描述 wetland 的狀態 The wetland / seems / healthy / 是
更多例子
  • The sky is dark. The sky turns dark. 天空是暗的。/天空變暗了。
  • The air is hot. The air feels hot. 空氣是熱的。/空氣感覺很熱。
小提醒

你可以用 be 直接描述主詞,也可以用 seem、turn 或 feel 表示看起來、變得或感覺如何。連綴動詞後面接形容詞,形容詞是在描述主詞。
