讀者 Fred 問:英文作文時,老師說 "There are many students stay unhealthy" 一句錯,因?yàn)橐痪渲豢梢杂幸粋€動詞。然而為什么 "I was told it was bogus" 又可以成立呢?
不錯,一句句子只可以有一個動詞。Fred 的句子可改寫為 "Many students stay unhealthy." 或者 "There are many students who stay unhealthy."。
為什么 "I was told it was bogus" 一句又成立呢?原因是這句本來是 "I was told that it was bogus.",是一句轉(zhuǎn)述句(indirect speech),只不過 that 被省略了,這種情況在口語中特別普遍。
又或者問:"There are many students who stay unhealthy." 一句不也有兩個動詞嗎?這個是因?yàn)檫@句其實(shí)是由兩句句子組成,中間運(yùn)用關(guān)系代名詞 who 連接起來。從文法上來說,that、who 和which 一類的關(guān)系代名詞帶頭的短語,雖然含有動詞,但不能單獨(dú)成為一句,必須連帶其他部分才可以成立。
