L6 + L7 文法-假設語氣+倒裝句
假設語氣 + 倒裝句
※假設語氣之時間順序：
過去完成→→→→過去式→現在式→未來式
1. 對未來不確定的假設：
If + S + beV/V現在/助V, S + 一般V/助V + V原
可根據事實而改變
※假設語氣沒有未來式, 所以現在式代替未來式
Ex: (1) If I study hard, I will get good grades.
倒裝：
1.去If
2.一般V找助V幫助 (如果本身有beV/助V就直接提至S之前)→類似疑問句寫法
3.主要子句不改變, 改變的是有If那一句
疑問句：
I am a good student. → Am I a good student?
I study English. → Do I study English?
I can study hard. → Can I study hard?
假設+倒裝句型：
If + S + beV/V現在/助V, S + 一般V/助V + V原
→BeV + S + ~, S + 一般V/助V + V原
→Do + S + V原, S + 一般V/助V + V原
→助V + S + V原, S + 一般V/助V + V原

※beV一律用were, 即使是I, she, he
Ex:(1)If I were you, I would kiss her.
(2)If I kissed her, she might love me more.
假設+倒裝句型：
If + S + were/V-ed, S + would/might/could/should + V原
→Were + S + ~, S + would/might/could/should + V原
→Did + S + V原, S + would/might/could/should + V原
句子改寫：
(1) If I were you, I would kiss her.
→Were I you, I would kiss her.
(2)If I were a nurse, I should be patient.
→Were I a nurse, I should be patient.
(3)If I kissed her, she might love me more.

3. 與過去事實相反：
If + S + had + p.p, S + would/might/could/should + have + p.p
Ex:(1)If I had enough money, I would have bought this house.
假設+倒裝句型：
If + S + had + p.p, S + would/might/could/should + have + p.p
→Had + S + p.p, S + would/might/could/should + have + p.p
句子改寫：
(1) If I had had enough money, I would have bought this house.
→Had I had enough money, I would have bought this house.

L5 文法-倒裝句
倒裝句
1. 地方副詞：
1→2→3＝3→2→1
Ex:(1) The bus comes here.＝ Here comes the bus.
1 2 3 3 2 1
(2) A book is on the desk.＝ On the desk is a book.
1 2 3 3 2 1
※ S(主詞)為代N, 1→2→3＝3→1→2
Ex:(1) I am here. ＝ Here I am.
1 2 3 3 1 2
(2) Here you are.→翻譯為：1.你在這裡 2.你要的東西在這裡
(3) I lived somewhere (inside that good device).
＝Somewhere (inside that good device) I lived.
→假如地方副詞後面有一個形容詞or形容詞子句,記得要連同副詞一起搬走
2. 時間副詞：then那個時候
Ex: The softly spoken answer came then. ＝ Then came the softly spoken answer.
1 2 3 3 2 1
3. 否定副詞：否定副詞放句首,句子倒裝
(1) 否定副詞：only, never, little, few, hardly, scarcely, barely, seldom, no sooner~ than~…
Ex:(1) I never study English.＝ Never do I study English.
(2)I hardly loved him.＝ Hardly did I love him.

＝No sooner than I found myself~ had he entered the room.
(5)I realized how much she meant to me only at that very important.
＝Only at that very important did I realize how much she meant to me.
※注意”否定副詞”是否有修飾後面的字,如果有,一定要一起搬家
4. 也：
肯定：S + beV/助V, too.＝ So + beV/助V + S
Ex:(1) I am a good student. My brother is, too. (My brother is a good student, too.)
I am a good student. ＝ So is my brother.
(2)I study English. Curly does, too. (Curly studies English, too.)
為一般V,所以簡答時用助動詞”does”表示
I study English. ＝ So does Curly.
否定：S + beV not/助V not, either. ＝ Neither + beV/助V + S
本身為否定
Ex:(1) I am not a good student. My brother isn’t, either. (My brother isn’t a good student.)
(2)I am not a good student. ＝ Neither is my brother.
(3)I don’t study English. Curly doesn’t study, either. (Curly doesn’t study English, either.)

Greetings from Chris
Dear all,
It is Chris, who just finished having surgery and came back from the hospital. Everything goes fine with me. The medical treatment still needs to last a few months. What I feel uncomfortable is I cannot have fun with you. You know, Chris is the person who never stops. Getting together with you is especially interesting and always makes me young. Haha! Tako and Momo still make some fun for us? Do you all pay attention to the substitute teachers? Do you have fun with them? Perhaps it is lucky for you to have different kinds of teachers. I believe you can learn a lot from them.
Though I have been feeling tired, I still have some energy to read your paper. Hey, the ones who do not finish homework and the ones who do not work hard must be very careful.
Don't forget: Hmmmm... Chris is always watching you!
