有關英文感官動詞用法

Question

我要請各位大大快幫幫我~~

感官動詞 see watch look hear listen....

如果之後要接的動詞是1. +原形V
或是 2. +V-ing

ex:
I heard him say so.

I can hear someone knocking.

但是我今天上課時~~~老師的題目是:
a. John was walking down the street when the bank was robbed.
b. While John was walking down the street, he saw a bank robbed.

請問上述的2個句子都是對的ㄇ?
see後面是不是要加 rob 或 robbing呢?

Answer 1

這個問題問的很好.

"感官動詞"包括有 : see, watch, hear, look at, listen to, feel.

大部份在講 "感官動詞" 的時候, 都只先說後面的動詞要接1. +原形V 或是 2. +V-ing. 國中生在第三冊學到 了 "感官動詞" , 而在第三冊時國中生還沒學到 "被動語態(第五冊才會學到)", 所以只先學到 "感官動詞" 後面的動詞要接 原形V 或是 V-ing. . 但等到學完了被動語態, 老師會跟學生講 "感官動詞"後面的結構其實可以有三種情形: (1). +原形V ; (2). +V-ing. (3). + p.p.

舉例:
(1) I saw Jack "dance" at the party. (接原形V)
(2) I saw Peter "playing" basketball in the park. (接Ving)
(3) I saw a dog "killed" by a bus. (接過去分詞 p.p.)

這個議題的重點:
一個句子只能有一個主要動詞, 當我們要形容一個名詞, 而所用的敘述語中又含有動詞的成分時, 怎麼辦? 用動狀詞(包括不定詞, 分詞, 以及動名詞三種), 或是用一個關係詞引導形容詞子句來達成這個目的.
可參考這篇.
John was walking down the street when the bank was robbed.
當銀行被搶時, 約翰正順著街道走著.
這句大家都懂.
While John was walking down the street, he saw a bank robbed.
當約翰順著街道走著的時候, 他看到一家銀行被搶了.
為什麼這句會有疑問? 因為句中出現了兩個動作. "被搶"這個動作用來形容"銀行"這個名詞. 感官動詞也是動詞, 也適用一開始所說的原則:
(一)
感官動詞 + 受詞 + (to) V <省略 to 的不定詞>
感官動詞 + 受詞 + Ving <強調動作正在進行>
感官動詞 + 受詞 + P.P. <用於含有被動語態的敘述>
以上的 <(to) V>, , 都當形容詞, 做為受詞的補語.
(二)
感官動詞 + 受詞 + 關係代名詞 + 形容詞子句.

後半句在英文裡其實是以下面兩種方式思考的:
(1) ..., 他看到"一家被搶的銀行". <用動狀詞>
..., he swa a bank robbed (by someone).
(2)..., 他看到一家銀行, "那家銀行被搶了". <用形容詞子句>
..., he saw a bank which was robbed (by someone).
但是個人並不傾向用"省略 which was"這樣的觀點, 因為有些時候動狀詞與子句之間的轉換並非如此單純.
如果版主有興趣, have 動詞之後的接法也是類似這樣, 但是換成 get 這個動詞時, 不定詞的就不能省了.
參考這篇.
希望這樣的說明能給您較為整體的觀念, 而不必瑣碎地去背各別動詞的用法.

..., he saw [ a bank robbed ] (by someone).
..., he saw a bank [ which was robbed ] (by someone).

您好

感官動詞後面加的是ing及原形沒錯
但是你要依"句型"來判斷 肯定 否定 疑問等 一般句是如此
可是這裡的用法不是
這裡用的是"被動式"
a. John was walking down the street when the bank was robbed.
這一句正常

b. While John was walking down the street, he saw a bank robbed.
這一句應該真正的句子是
While John was walking down the street, he saw a bank "which was" robbed.
which was這2個字是可省略的
譬如:我認識一個叫John的人
有2種表示法
1.I know a man who is named John.
也可用
2.I know a man named John.
那個關係代名詞跟b動詞可以省略
所以那並不是感官動詞的用法
而是"被動"

希望有幫到你囉^ ^

A這一句是對的。
B這一句應該說While John was walking down the street, a bank was being robbed. While John was walking down the street, he saw a bank being robbed. 因為這是被動句喔！是搶匪在搶銀行，所以銀行是被搶的。

被動句 a bank was being robbed= a bank was being robbed by a robber，但是後面by a robber也可以不用寫，因為大家都知道是被搶匪搶劫的，所以無須多此一舉，只需寫“一個銀行被搶”就行了。

2006-12-31 12:16:18 補充：
或者你可說While John was walking down the street, he saw a robber robbing a bank. While John was walking down the street, a robber was robbing a bank. 像這兩句就不是被動句了。
要依照情況而改變句型，多多練習就會知道了。
