📖 一、進階句型翻譯技巧全攻略 🔥 學測必考
學測英文非選的決勝點就在句型變化。閱卷老師每份作文只看幾十秒,進階句型能立刻傳達你的語言實力。這堂課用四大技巧,帶你把平凡句子轉成高分亮點句。
🔍 技巧一:倒裝句——否定、Only 一倒馬上加分
將否定副詞或 Only 移至句首,強制主詞與動詞倒裝,能瞬間凸顯語氣,特別適合強調時間點與對比。
真題片段:Not once did he complain during the hard times. (仿學測試題)
他不但會唱歌,還會跳舞。Not only can he sing, but he can also dance.
🔥考點:not only 放句首時,前方子句要倒裝,後方 but 子句維持正常語序。
我一踏出門,就開始下雨。Hardly had I stepped out when it began to rain.
🔥考點:Hardly / Scarcely ... when ... 搭配過去完成式倒裝,動作一前一後。
那時我才明白他的用心。Only then did I understand his intention.
🔥考點:Only + 副詞/副詞片語 放句首時,後方主要子句倒裝。
🎯 搶分關鍵:never, seldom, rarely, not only, hardly, only then 這六組最常考,先練熟就能穩拿倒裝分。
🤔 常見疑問:倒裝句什麼時候用才自然?
倒裝並非隨時都好,最能自然加分的時機是「否定副詞或 only 開頭」的正式語氣,以及 so ... that 句型中:So touching was the movie that I cried. 作文開頭或轉折處用一次,立即增加亮點。
🔍 技巧二:分詞構句——刪贅詞,句子活起來
用 V-ing 或 p.p. 取代連接詞,能同時表達時間、原因或附帶狀態,讓句子更緊湊專業。
真題片段:Walking into the room, she found everyone staring at her. (仿作)
因為被雷聲嚇到,寶寶哭了。Frightened by the thunder, the baby burst into tears.
🔥考點:被動語意用過去分詞,主詞 the baby 就是承受「嚇到」的人。
寫完作業後,他就去打籃球。Having finished his homework, he went to play basketball.
🔥考點:想要強調作業「先寫完」,用 Having + p.p. 句型。
站在山頂往下看,景色美極了。Looking down from the top of the mountain, I found the view breathtaking.
🔥考點:主動語意 V-ing,而且一定要確認主詞是 I,避免 dangling。
💡 小訣竅:寫完分詞構句後,立刻檢查主要子句的主詞,看它能不能做出分詞的動作。不能就錯。
🤔 常見疑問:分詞構句可以跟倒裝一起用嗎?
當然可以。例如:Not knowing what to do, only then did he seek help. 先以分詞構句點出狀態,再用 only 倒裝拉出轉折,高級連發但主詞要一致。
🔍 技巧三:強調結構——It is/was ... that 框出重點
想強調主詞、受詞、時間或地點時,用 It is/was ... that ... 把訊息推到最前面,取代平鋪直敘。
常見考題:It was not until we lost it that we realized its value.
就是因為他的勇氣,大家才得救。It was because of his courage that everyone was saved.
🔥考點:強調原因,because of 直接置於 It was 後,that 子句還原。
我是在車站碰到他的。It was at the station that I ran into him.
🔥考點:強調地點用 at the station,連接詞只用 that,不可用 where。
直到接到通知,我才知道真相。It was not until I received the notice that I knew the truth.
🔥考點:not until 強調固定公式:It was not until + 子句 + that + S + V。
🎯 搶分關鍵:作文中只要有一句強調結構,就能展示你對句法的控制力。尤其是 It was not until ... that ... 讓人眼睛一亮。
🤔 常見疑問:強調「人」的時候可以用 who 嗎?
可以,It was my mother who / that encouraged me. 兩者皆可,但學測非選以 that 最保險,避免誤用 whom,也確保閱卷零爭議。
🔍 技巧四:假設語氣——時間往回推,語氣更細膩
表達與事實相反的條件或願望時,動詞向後退一步:現在用過去式,過去用過去完成式,馬上拉出英語感。
經典句:If I had known the truth, I would have acted differently.
如果我是你,我就會接受那個提議。If I were you, I would accept that offer.
🔥考點:現在事實相反,be 一律用 were,主要子句 would + 原形動詞。
要是他早點出發,就不會錯過公車了。If he had set out earlier, he wouldn't have missed the bus.
🔥考點:過去事實相反,if 子句用 had + p.p.,主要子句用 would have + p.p.。
我真希望那天晚上我有跟你去。I wish I had gone with you that night.
🔥考點:wish 後面子句與過去事實相反,使用 had + p.p.。
💡 小訣竅:別忘了混合假設:If I had saved enough money, I would travel abroad now. 過去條件,現在結果,學測高級亮點。
🤔 常見疑問:without / but for 可以取代 if 子句嗎?
可以,而且非常加分。But for your help, I couldn't have finished it. = Without your help, ... 但主句要用 would / could / might have p.p.,表達過去無法實現之事。
⚠️ 翻譯常見陷阱:分詞構句主詞不一致、倒裝漏助動詞、假設語氣忘了往回退、強調句誤用 which 當連接詞,這四個錯誤學測每年都有考生踩坑。請務必在檢查時逐句核對。
