一個國中英文問題

Question

Matsu, ___ in 960 A.D., was given the name Mo-niang, which means quiet girl because she seldom cried as a baby.
(A)born
(B)was born
(C)is born
(D)to be born
答案是(A)請解釋,謝謝

Answer 1

Matsu, ___ in 960 A.D., was given the name Mo-niang, which means quiet girl because she seldom cried as a baby.

既然是選擇題 看清楚整體句後 在看重要細節部分 Matsu後面有個小逗點 所以一般應該是 Matsu was born in 960........ 可是有了逗號 was born 被省略 就變成 Matsu, born in 960........

For example, compare the two sentences
Mary, a beautiful woman, is a teacher.
Mary is a beautiful woman who is a teacher.
看Mary 後有加逗號和沒加逗號的差別
第一句 a beautiful woman 就如同補充 (所以 is 被省略)
第二句 a beautiful woman 是被強調的 (is 是需要的)

Answer 2

說明白一點....這題是考形容詞子句的限定用法 我說一下限定用法
限定用法是指 因為十分的多 要把他侷限起來 才知道的叫限定用法
打個比方:My father , who has gone to Japan , likes to play golf.這句話就是非限定用法...因為每個人都只有一個老爸
如果變成My fatherwho has gone to Japan likes to play golf.那就怪了 你老爸有一大堆 要限定才可
限定用法說完了 換形容詞子句::
當一個形容詞子句中的動詞為主動時 可以把動詞改成動名詞 省略關係代名詞 如:
He is a teacher who teaches us.
可以變成 He is a teacher teaching.
當一個形容詞子句的動詞為被動時(就像你的題目) 可以把關係代名詞和be動詞省去 把動詞改成被動:
Matsu, who was born in 960 A.D.,..................................
變成 Matsu,born in 960........................
這文法到高中常用透了

Answer 3

此為p.p.子句當形容詞子句。

本來應為who was born

這裡把who was省略後

因為born本來就是p.p.不用在做變化

故選(A)。

Answer 4

答案是A沒錯, 最簡單的說法是 p.p.(過去分詞)可以拿來形容人.
所以這裡的born in 960...是在補充說明Matsu的資料.

Answer 5

1. 分詞構句，主動用 Ving ，被動用 p.p. (原文還原如最下)
媽祖不會自己生自己所以用 born ，順便說一下，沒有一個人會自己生自己…
生的動詞三態 bear-bore-born

2. 因為字句 was 重複所以分詞構句可以避免掉

3. 因為只有一個媽祖所以要用非限定用法

Matsu, who was born in 960 A.D., was given the name Mo-niang, which means quiet girl because she seldom cried as a baby.
媽祖，出生於西元960年，因為鮮少哭泣而被賦予默娘之名以示她的安靜

Answer 6

原來是who was born(被動)
因為出生 永遠只能用被動

被動的簡寫
去掉who和be 留下過去式
直接簡寫成born

Answer 7

原本應該是Matsu who was born in 960 A.D., was given the name .............................現在加入","who was 可省略 (birth born born)

Answer 8

原文翻譯「出生在公元960年的媽祖，原名叫林默娘，因為她是一個從嬰兒時起就極少哭泣的安靜小女孩。」

正確答案所以是（A）born。原因是：[born in 960 A.D.]是一句過去分詞片語，它不是一個完整的句子所以前面不需要加 [was]或者[is]。因為媽祖老早已前就出生了，所以這個片語必須用過去分詞 [born]，而不能用帶有「未來」含意的 [to be born]。
