文法 – 分詞構句(獨立分詞構句)
1. 當副詞子句要簡化成分詞構句,但副詞子句的主詞與主要子句的主詞不一致時,其簡化過程要將連接詞省略,其後副詞子句的主詞保留下來,語態(voice)是主動,則將副詞子句的動詞簡化成[ verb-ing ],若是被動,則將副詞子句的動詞簡化成[ p.p. ]。這種分詞構句稱為獨立分詞構句。

請問改寫成分詞時 主格需要改成受格嗎 謝謝 Many polls show that he was widening the gap with Jack. Many polls show HIM/HE widening the gap with Jack. 答案是HIM
這是另一種寫法,但跟分詞沒有關係 Many polls show him widening the gap with Jack. show是雙賓動詞,一個受詞是him,另一個是widening the gap with Jack(動名詞片語當名詞使用)
謝謝回覆 :)
我想請問一下這個句法可以這樣寫嗎? 原始句: After we reciving your payment, we will sent you the package. 下面這兩種寫法都可以嗎? 1. After receiving your payment, we will send you the package. (After當介係詞, Receive當動名詞用) 2. Receiving your payment, we will send you the package. (分詞構句)
正確 1. After receiving your payment, we will send you the package. (After當介係詞, receive是主動,所以要改變成Verb-ing,就成為revceiving) 2. Receiving your payment, we will send you the package. (分詞構句)
原始句打錯.. 應為: After we receive your payment, we will send you the package.
感謝您的分享,看完讓我受益良多,不過有二個地方有問題,分享給您!! 7) Mr. Long arriving at office at nine, and his customers came in ten minutes later.(X) = Mr. Long arriving at office at nine, his customers came in ten minutes later.(O) 第七句改法, 連接詞 and 應該拿掉才比較正確。 8) He not being a member of this project team, so I will not invite him to attend the project review meeting.(X)=He not being a member of this project team, I will not invite him to attend the project review meeting.(O) 第八句改法, 連接詞 so 應該拿掉才比較正確。
Thanks!
