文法淺釋系列 (16)

文法(grammar)與句型(sentence patterns)

二. 代名詞 ( Pronoun) :

13) 若用公式表示其句型如下：

such + noun that + 子句 = so + adj. + that + 子句，that 後接的子句乃表示“結果”：

Paul is such a disgusting man that everyone keeps away from him.

Paul 是如此惹人討厭的人以致大家對他敬而遠之。

He has such a low income that he cannot afford a single family house.

(注意：such a + adj. +n…..that….)

 =He has so low an income that he cannot afford a single family house 

他的收入這麼低，以致買不起一幢獨幢房子。

(注意：so+ adj. + a + n…..that…

請看下列長句：

*I found myself an object of great interest; so much so, that the driver told me to keep

our route secret, in order to avoid the press that would otherwise have awaited. 

 (我發現我是公眾很感興趣的一個目標；它們是如此感興趣，以致司機 告訴我，我們行走的路線要保密，否則會被等候我的媒體碰見。)

(so much so, ……；第一個so 作adv.，第二個so 作代名詞，代替前述 an object )

；of great interest= a very interesting object；otherwise = in a different way)

【其他句型】：   

1.    As many people as come will be entertained 來的人全會被招待。

(注意：上句第一 As 作副詞修飾 many 第二 as (=who) 作關係代名詞用；作 come 之主詞) 本句句型與as….as (像…一樣) 不同：I am not so(as) stupid as you might think. 我沒有你想的那麽笨。第一個as還是副詞形容stupid (a.) ；第二個as是連接詞作副詞用，強調程度的比較。

2.    A. This is the same purse as I came upon. 這是我無意間找到同樣的皮夾。

B. This is the same purse that I cam upon. 這是我無意間找到的那個皮夾。

A句强調同一類型 (還有其他皮夾) B.句指完全相同(只有一個皮夾)。as與that均作關係代名詞用=which

14)   as 在句中作關係代名詞用，其前述詞為不是一個人或一件事物，而是後面之全句。

例As is often the case, he is late for class. 他經常遲到。 ( he is late for class) 作前述詞用。As is often the case, = As always, = As usual通常。也可將 as 前述詞 (全句) 置於主要子句之後：

He pretends not to know me, as you can see .如你們所明白的，他假裝不認識我

( as 之前述詞為He……me  )
