給予孩子的建議:
1. 由於一場車禍,Victor在三歲時失去了視力和雙臂。
Visual (adj)視力的、看得見的
Sight = vision (n) 視力
at three years = at the age
of three 兩種方式皆可表達在…歲的時候
è Because of a car acciddent,
Victor lost his vision and arms at three
years.
這一句寫得不錯的地方在於:
1.有注意動詞時態的變化:
lost 2. 名詞單複數的變化: arms
2. 儘管這些缺陷,他決心要成為一名作家,並終於實現夢想。
必須留意despite的用法,是
介係詞 的用法: 介+ Ving / N.
缺陷 應該指的是 身體上的缺陷,英文字有: defect = flaw = fault 這三個字一定要記!
è Despite the
defects, he decides to become a writter and finally reaches his dream.
一定要非常留意拼字,明明會寫,但卻寫錯,這種錯誤在大考中非常不可原諒!
3. 在演講比賽之前,Windy非常緊張,很怕自己輸了比賽。
Nervous 是 adj ,所以要留意
be.v + adj的用法。Ex: I am very tall.
演講比賽,其實著重的可以是 演講本身 或是 比賽本身
都可以。但是game 可以換掉,建議可改為: competition,
這個字用的很廣泛,因為字的本身有 競爭 的含意,因此適用於任何有關比賽!
Lose- lost-lost 動詞三態要很留意,這種錯誤在大考中非常不可原諒!
è Windy was very nervous and afraid to lose the competition before the speech.
整體來說,這個句子也寫得非常不錯,架構完整! Good ^^
4. 幸虧有家人和朋友的支持,她才能勇敢面對挑戰。
Thanks to 的用法一樣是 介係詞 的用法,可參考前述。
Brave 乃adj用法,若當作名詞,則翻譯為勇士。
建議可改為:she can face the challenge bravely.
è Thanks to the
support from her friends and family, she can face the challenge bravely.
5. 他在追求夢想中的過程從不放棄,而最後她成功了。
追求夢想 除了可用fellow以外,更好的用法建議改為:pursue-pursued-pursued 或是
Dream- dreamed- dreamed。
Dream本身就有追夢的意思,ex: dream my dream of being a doctor.
成功這個字補充一下好了! 有各種不同詞性,必須留意!
Succeed V. 成功 success N. 成功 successful adj successfully adv.
à He never gives
up in the process of pursuing his dream and he finally succeeds.
6. 這個故事告訴我們,不論我們會遇到什麼困難,都應該要加油。
Tell 要留意拼字!! 小心!
No matter what = whatever
很棒! 能記得如此(連接詞)用法!
加油 的意思,因為是要翻譯成英文,老師試著解釋一番,因為加油也還有 cheer sb. up,但很明顯這裡並非這種意思!因此是否可想成: 試著去努力克服它!
è His story tells
us no matter what difficulty we meet, we have to try hard to overcome.
7. Williams太太以為她先生會忙到忘記他們結婚十週年紀念日。
So… that…很棒的用法!但需要留意的是 that 後面必須接子句(S.+ V.)
十周年紀念日可參考其用法: tenth anniversary of marriage
五周年紀念日可參考其用法: fifth anniversary of marriage
其餘以此類推。
à Ms. Williams
thought (that) her hisband was so busy that he will forget their tenth
anniversary of marriage.
8. 令她驚喜的是,她丈夫不但記得,還送她一條珍珠項鍊作為禮物。
令某人驚喜 的用法: to sb.’s surprise =
surprisely. 建議可後者為第一考量,因為簡單有力,且surprisely較為常見,比較不容易拼錯。
Not only…but also…的用法很棒!good!
但可留意以下兩點:
1.
後面的動詞必須留意單複數(remembers / gives)à 文法AB本:主動詞一致性
2.
行有餘力之餘,可參考其倒裝句用法。
To her surprise, her hasband not only remembers (their important
day) but also gives (=buys) her a pearl necklace as a gift.
