分詞構句（Participial Construction） 應英三丙4A0C0105 黃月樺

何謂分詞構句 • 由副詞子句簡化而來 • 兼具形容詞片語和副詞子句的性質，用以修飾句子中的主詞以及動詞的分詞片語句子中的連接詞:表示時間先後關係、因果關係、條件、讓步或附帶情況

何謂分詞構句 • 表時間: when, as, while, after, before .. • 表原因: because, since, as, for... • 表條件: if • 表讓步: although, though, even though, even if, if, whether • 表附帶情況: and • 分詞構句通常不加連接詞，但有時為了使分詞片語與主要子句的關係更清楚，亦可在分詞片語前加上連接詞。

分詞構句三步驟 • 去掉連接詞 • 去掉副詞子句的主詞（前後句的主詞『相同』) (若主詞不相同，前後句的主詞） • 動詞改為分詞主動→現在分詞(Ving) 被動→過去分詞(p.p) 保留

分詞構句三步驟 • 遇到助動詞　 do/does/did →刪去 has/have/had →現在分詞 having • 若分詞為 being/having been →可省略 • 否定詞(not/never)放在分詞(Ving/p.p)面前

Sentence pattern • 連接詞+主詞(S)+動詞(V)…，主詞＋動詞…→Ving（主動），Ｓ＋Ｖ…→ P.P（被動），Ｓ＋Ｖ…
