My neighbor, Grandma Wang, had an old dog that kept her company for twelve years. When the dog died last winter, she grieved for several weeks and hardly went out. We were all worried because she looked more and more depressed. We did not know how to comfort her, so we visited her every day with snacks she liked. One day, we gave her a photo album of the old dog, and when she opened it, she was amazed and exclaimed, 'What a delightful surprise!' From that day on, she slowly came out of her depression and was content with her life again.
我的鄰居王奶奶養了一隻老狗,那隻狗陪伴了她十二年。
My neighbor, Grandma Wang, had an old dog that kept her company for twelve years.
keep sb company 是「陪伴某人」。dog 後面的 that 引導限定關係子句,說明是哪一隻狗。「十二年」用 for + 一段時間,搭配過去簡單式 kept。
去年冬天牠過世了,奶奶為牠哀傷(grieve)了好幾個星期,幾乎不出門。
When the dog died last winter, she grieved for several weeks and hardly went out.
grieve(for sb)是「為(逝者)悲痛」,多用於死亡或重大失去,語氣比 be sad 重。hardly 本身就帶有否定的意思,意思是「幾乎不」,不可再加 not。「過世」用動詞 die 的過去式 died;dead 是形容詞,不能直接當動詞用。
我們都很擔心,因為她看起來一天比一天沮喪。
We were all worried because she looked more and more depressed.
look + 形容詞是「看起來…」。「一天比一天」可用 more and more + 形容詞;多音節形容詞不能加 -er,所以寫 more and more depressed。depressed 是形容詞「沮喪的」。
我們不知道該怎麼安慰她,只好每天帶她愛吃的點心去陪她。
We did not know how to comfort her, so we visited her every day with snacks she liked.
how to + 原形動詞是「(該)如何…」。comfort 當動詞是「安慰」,後面直接接人。snacks she liked 省略了受詞關係代名詞 that / which。so 引出結果,前面加逗號。
有一天,我們送她一本老狗的相簿,她翻開時又驚又喜(amaze),大聲說:「這真是個令人開心的驚喜!」
One day, we gave her a photo album of the old dog, and when she opened it, she was amazed and exclaimed, 'What a delightful surprise!'
give sb sth 是雙受詞結構。amazed 是「(人)感到驚訝的」,amazing 才是「(事物)令人驚訝的」。exclaim 是因驚訝或高興而「大聲說」,後面直接接引號內的話。What a + 形容詞 + 名詞!是感嘆句;delightful 是「令人愉快的」。
從那天起,她慢慢走出低落的情緒,又能對自己的生活感到滿足。
From that day on, she slowly came out of her depression and was content with her life again.
come out of 在這裡是「從某種狀態中走出來」。depression 在此指情緒低落;如果低落的情緒很久都沒有好轉,應該找醫師或輔導老師協助。content 當形容詞是「滿足的」,重音在後面(con-TENT),常用 be content with。
When her name was called, Mina walked onto the stage with shaking legs. Her anxiety grew as she looked at the crowd, and she was so anxious that her fingers turned stiff. She began to play, but halfway through the song she hit a wrong note and stopped. The whole hall went silent. Mina was horrified. A wave of fright ran through her, and she was sure that she had disappointed her teacher. Her first instinct was to run away, but then she heard her teacher whisper, 'Take your time.' Mina took a deep breath and started again from the beginning. This time her fingers moved smoothly. When she finished, the audience responded with loud applause. Mina had expected to feel disappointment, but she was astonished to find that she was smiling. After the concert, her teacher complimented her on staying calm, and Mina learned that one mistake is not the end of the world.
當她的名字被叫到時,米娜雙腿發抖地走上舞台。她望著台下的人群,焦慮越來越強烈,緊張到手指都僵硬了。她開始彈奏,但彈到一半時按錯了一個音,就停了下來。整個大廳安靜了下來。米娜嚇壞了,一陣恐懼竄過全身,她確定自己讓老師失望了。她的第一個本能反應是逃走,但這時她聽到老師輕聲說:「慢慢來。」米娜深吸一口氣,從頭再彈一次。這一次她的手指移動得很流暢。彈完時,觀眾以熱烈的掌聲回應。米娜原本以為自己會覺得失望,卻驚訝地發現自己正在微笑。音樂會結束後,老師稱讚她保持鎮定,米娜也明白了一次失誤並不是世界末日。
本題屬於「完成故事型」,題目已給開頭(上台前的緊張),範文只寫後續,並依「起、承、轉、合」安排:起——上台後焦慮升高;承——彈錯音、停住,心情跌到谷底;轉——老師輕聲鼓勵,米娜重新開始;合——掌聲、驚喜與領悟。全文使用過去式敘述,先發生的事用過去完成式(had expected),並用 When、As、then、After 等時間連接詞串起事件。結尾用一句簡短的領悟(一次失誤不是世界末日)點出主角學到的事,不必長篇說教。
When her name was called
名字是「被叫到」,所以用被動語態 was called。這裡重點是名字被叫,不需要說明是誰叫的,用被動最自然。
When the bell was rung, the students ran out.
鐘聲一響,學生們就跑了出去。
she was so anxious that her fingers turned stiff
so + 形容詞 + that 子句表示「如此…以致於…」。that 子句說明程度造成的結果,口語中 that 可以省略。
The box was so heavy that I could not lift it.
這個箱子重到我搬不動。
Her first instinct was to run away, but then she heard her teacher whisper
but 連接前後相反的情況,再加上 then 帶出故事的轉折點。heard her teacher whisper 是「聽到老師輕聲說」,hear + 受詞 + 原形動詞,強調聽見整個動作。
He wanted to sleep, but then the phone rang.
他想睡覺,但這時電話響了。
When she finished, the audience responded with loud applause
When 引導的子句用過去簡單式,表示「…的時候」,後面的動作緊接著發生。寫故事時用 When、As、Then、After 等時間連接詞,事件的先後才清楚。
When I got home, my dog ran to the door.
我一到家,我的狗就跑到門口。
Mina had expected to feel disappointment, but she was astonished to find that she was smiling
had expected 是過去完成式(had + 過去分詞),表示在「發現自己在微笑」這個過去時間點之前就已經有的預期。故事裡先發生的事用過去完成式,後發生的用過去簡單式。
I had finished my homework before my friend called.
朋友打電話來之前,我已經寫完功課了。
