複雜句

The students would have made better grades if they had studied hard.

不少人認為”複雜句型”是高分的要件。所謂複雜句型就是利用各種子句、連接詞、分詞、片語等，將簡單句擴充為繞來繞去的長句。首先，它不易閲讀，又容易出錯，尤其是中間有時態、用字等問題。

考試時，儘量將複雜句控制在兩句內，中間穿插簡單句。其實，閲卷老師想看到的是有變化的句型，以及連貫的內容，不是整篇令人眼花的複雜句。

下面是一個同學寫一篇關於林書豪的最後兩句：

“…. Graduating from a prestigious university, Jeremy gave up the road to Wall Street, choosing his dream – NBA. With his marvelous story, he is not only the person I admire most but also everyone’s role model, teaching everyone insisting dreams and goals.”

這兩句都有分詞片語，但用法上必沒有正確表達作者的意思。從連貫的角度，第一句中，看不出第二句所提的 ”marvelous” 的地方，少了一句説明他的成名。看下面改寫是否讓意思更完整，句子更通順：

“With an Economics degree from a prestigious university, Jeremy gave up Wall Street and pursued his NBA dream instead. He eventually became one of the fastest-rising stars in NBA history. His success story not just fascinates me but inspires me to stick to my goals. I want to be as successful as he in the future. That explains the reason I take him as my role model.”

你如果對分詞構句沒把握，忘掉它。上面示範的就是簡單，但有變化的句子寫法，每一句都用不同字開頭，結構也不一樣(劃線部分)。而且意思連貫，從兩句便成易讀的五句。

易讀又連貫的句子才是受歡迎的句子。 ^[1]
