學生作文
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.

學生作文
給予孩子的建議:
1. 我(現在)以為火車在我到車站前就開走了。有兩種寫法,務必要把它弄懂。
I
think the train had gone before I arrived at the station.
我(過去)以為火車在我到車站前就開走了。
I
thought the train had gone before I arrived at the station.
è 這個說法你會比較好懂,因為火車離開的動作在你到達車站之前,而過去完成式是過去式的過去式
2. (有件事)讓我鬆了一口氣的是,火車誤點30分鐘,所以我可以從容地上車。建議改為:
The thing (which / that) let me feel relaxed is (that) the
train is delayed for thirty minutes, so I can take (= get on) the train freely / unhurriedly / slowly.
è 用一個關代來點出句子的主詞,(which / that) let me feel relaxed用來形容有一件讓我鬆口氣的事情
è 火車誤點幾分鐘的用法可參考之。另外,
The
train is behind the schedule for 30 minutes. 也是誤點幾分鐘的說法。可練習之!
è 從容的單字可以參考前面兩個,順便多背些單字。其中,hurry為匆忙之意,unhurry為其反義詞。
3. 對一位老師來說,不放棄任何學生是很重要的。這句大致上寫得不錯,有些細節須修改而已。
For
/ To a teacher, it is important to never give up any student. / never
giving up any student is important.
è 前面為虛主詞的用法,後面是動名詞當主詞的用法,兩個都好,it’s
up to you(看你)!
4. 他必須盡其所能的努力,使一個學生能充分展現最好的一面。
He
must / has to try his best to make his student perform best.
è 盡其所能有好多用法,最簡單的就是: try
his best to VR = makes his effort to VR,
兩個用法都差不多也都不難,可以都記起來,會使你得文章更生動些。
è Make 為使役動詞的用法,一定要非常非常留意,不可以不可以加 to! 因為你會念起來很順。
使役動詞要加VR: make 人 do 事物。但help 為例外: + to VR / Ving,可詳見老師上課的筆記。
5. 雖然Thelma 知道電視壞了,但他沒有找人來修。這句話也寫得不錯,很讚!
Although
Thelma knows (that) the television is broken, she doesn’t fix (= repair) it.
è TV盡量寫為television。
6. 他想要過沒有電視的簡單生活。
She
wants to live (=lead to) a easy life without a television.
è 過著…的生活:Live = lead to ,這個用法我們昨天才說過,可以練習用用看。
è 沒有電視的生活,我們可以試著用後衛修飾( 介+N)的方法來練習。a easy life
without a television
例如:帶著紅帽子的女孩 a girl with a red hat
7. 該作家的最新創作都是有關網路對於每個人的生活影響。
The
writer’s latest book (=novel) is about how the Net (=Internet) effect people
life.
è New /
newer / newest,但latest是個非常非常棒的字,可以記起來。
è how
the Net (=Internet) effect people life. 是個名詞字句的用法,其實就你們以前國三間接問句的用法,老師的講義還在嗎?名詞子句:wh- /
h- S + V 例如:what
you say / how you feel

學生作文
給予孩子的建議:
1.
On Chinese New Year’s Eve, a dog, Ian, was sitting on the floor as (=while)
Phebe was cooking delicious and delicate cuisines in the kitchen.
è On + 一年只過一次的節日。另外,in 可表在…期間 = during
è a dog, Ian, 小狗的名子叫Ian 可用同位語表示之。
è when = as / while = as 的用法可參考老師的連接詞講義。而while 通常與 Ving (動作連續) 連用。
è 菜餚: cuisines = dishes
2.
Can’t help but + V.R.
è Can’t help but make its mouth water = Can’t help but run at the mouth.
Mouth-watering 為形容詞的用法。 例如: Ivan is mouth-watering when he saw the
delicious cuisine.
3.
荐漳想表達的意思應該是: 同時間,某人聽見一個奇怪的聲音正在接近廚房。可改為:
At the same time, strange sound was
approaching the kitchen.
è 刪除step是因為 聲音不會踏進廚房阿!只有”人”才會做step 的動作。
老師提供荐漳以下寫法:
At the same time, Phebe’s wife notice a man
with the gorilla costumes appraoched and stepped into the kitchen. The scene
scared his wife a lot!
4.
Not knowing what happen, his wife wanted to call the police and his husband
for help.
è 因為不知道發生什麼事,他太太想尋求警察或是丈夫的協助。
è Not knowing 為省略 連接詞 與 主詞的分詞用法,請練習之。另外,call somebody’s for help 為上星期上課教過的用法,也可練習之。
5.
However,
Phebe’s wife were not aware that the gorilla is a special gift which his
husband dressed up.
è 此句為第二張圖片與第三張圖片之緩衝句(承上啟下)句。
6. 看見他太太驚慌的樣子,Ian決定要把真相告訴太太了。
Seeing
the scare, Ian decided to tell the truth to his wife.
7. Ian immediately turned off the
mask and gave his wife a bunch of flowers.
è 這句寫得不錯! Good ^^
8. 第八句開始可以說明為什麼要送花? 其實就是要增加文章的篇幅、長度。
Because
today is her birthdday, Ian was willing to show his blessing.
可簡單說明夫婦兩人的心情。
After
realizing the her husband’s mind, his wife felt thoughtful and touching.
更可簡單說明小狗的心情。
With the
happiness atmosphere (氣氛), their dog enjoy the dishes as
well and wag its tail. (搖尾巴)
結尾可簡單說明,這一家人在除夕夜的狀況。(某個程度需要想像一下)
After the
accident, Ian and his wife clean the dishes which was fallen on the floor and
then cook the dishes toghther! With the unforgettable memory, they spent the
whole night with their dog pet joyfully.
以下幾點提醒荐漳:
1. 可先用中文將想表達的意思寫下,之後再翻譯成英文,以維持文章的邏輯性。
2. 注意其分段! 建議: 可將第一句至第六句歸類為第一段,其餘歸類為第二段。

5. 如果人當作主詞,喝咖啡當作動詞,這個句子或許會簡單些。
In
Taiwan, more and more people drink coffee.
又或者是練習the number of 的句型。(……的數量)
In
Taiwan, the number of people who drink coffee is increasing.
6. Every day, many people are used to
drinking coffee in the early morning.
à 兩個時間副詞(every day/ in
the early morning)重疊時,可嘗試擺放不同位置。
è Be used to ving / be used to VR 的相關用法,請參考上課筆記。
è
7. 此句重點為: 視A為B的用法。請詳見上課筆記。

parents regarded their children as treasure.
Value (X) property (X)
8. 最後一句寫得算是不錯,但仍有小錯誤,顯得有些可惜!
As
their children can’t reach (= meet) their expectation, they may take the
punishment.
能勇於寫出句子已非常難能可貴的了,請孟軒繼續加油! 別怕!
以下三點建議,請留意之:
1. 詞性的變化
2. 單複數的變化
3. 上課的例子,可多加嘗試

英文講義--Need 的用法
Need 可當 1.「半語氣助動詞」(marginal
modal or semi-modal - dare、ought
to 和 used to 也是屬於這類助動詞) 和2. 普通動詞用。前者與其他語氣助動詞一樣,後接原形動詞,但它幾乎都是用在否定句和 (少部分用在) 問句中。例如:
- He needn’t earn overtime. (他不必賺加班費)
- You needn’t take off your shoes. (你不必脫鞋)
- Need I reply? (我必須回覆嗎?)
當語氣助動詞用的 need 鮮少用於肯定句,除非是在正式的上下文中。但即使 need 後面未接 not,句子中也幾乎都會使用 no one、nobody、nothing
等否定詞,使得句子仍屬否定句。例如:
- Nothing need be done about his birthday
party untill Saturday. (週六之前有關他的生日派對,什麼事都不必做)
- Nobody need trouble about this. (沒有人必須為這事操心)
- No one need write a report about this
book. (沒有人必須寫這本書的讀書報告)
- Not a thing need change on this
document. (這份文件不必做任何修改)
當語氣助動詞用的 need
是直接在後面加上 not 來變成否定,即 need not (正式的寫法),但可縮寫為 needn’t (非正式的寫法)。所以,我們不可在 need 的前面再加上 don’t/doesn’t/didn’t。例如:
- You need not worry about this issue. (你不用擔心這問題) (正)
- You needn’t worry about this issue. (正)
- You don’t need worry about this issue.
(誤)
當語氣助動詞用的 need 也很少用於問句,除非是在正式的上下文中。Need 用於問句時是直接挪到的主詞的前面,句末加上問號。所以,我們不可在主詞的前面使用 Do/Does/Did。例如:
- Need you go so soon? (你需要這麼早走嗎?) (正)
- Do you need go so soon? (誤)
當語氣助動詞用的 need 不可再跟其他語氣助動詞連用。例如:
- No one need write a report about this
book. (正)
- No one need must write a report about
this book. (誤)
- No one must need write a report about
this book. (誤)
當語氣助動詞用的 need 沒有過去型。所以,若要表示過去的「必須,必要,需要」,所們要使用 didn’t need to (need 在此為普通動詞) 或 didn’t have to。例如:
- We didn’t need to lend money to him. (我們不必把錢借給他) (正)
- We didn’t have to lend money to him. (正)
- We didn’t need lend money to him. (誤)
Needn’t have + P.P. 和 didn’t need to + 原形動詞 都是在表示過去發生的事件。
è Needn’t have done 是表示本來不必做或用不著做,但卻做了(與過去事實相反);
è didn’t need to do 則是表示不必做或用不著做,但有可能做了,也可能沒做。例如:
- Mary needn’t have taken her umbrella. (瑪麗本來不用帶傘的) - 但她卻帶了。
- Mary didn’t need to take her umbrella.
(瑪麗不必帶傘) - 但實際上可能帶了,也可能沒帶。
當語氣助動詞用的 need
和 need to 可以互換,但當普通動詞用的 need 須接帶 to 的不定詞,而且有人稱、數和時態的變化。例如:
- Need you study? (你必須唸書嗎?)
Do you need to study? - He needn’t study. (他不必唸書)
He doesn’t need to study. - He needs to study. (他必須唸書) - 在肯定句中,need 幾乎都是用作普通動詞;主詞為第三人稱單數,動詞須加 s。
Need 後面若要接名詞片語或動名詞,則 need 只能用作普通動詞。例如:
- I don’t need a jacket. (我不需要外套) (正)
I needn’t a jacket. (誤) - The room doesn’t need painting.
(房間不需要粉刷) (正)
= The room doesn’t need to be painted. à 以現在分詞(Ving)代替被動的特例之一。
The room needn’t painting. (誤)
