語文雙聲道:不規則動詞令人頭痛


http://paper.wenweipo.com   [2007-02-02]

 英文動詞的變化,是令學生於學習英文時最感頭痛的根源之一。

 試讀讀這小故事:John lay in bed wondering how to lie to his parents about his poor examination results. His sister, Judy, was laying the table, preparing for dinner. Mother shouted out from the kitchen, “ Is John still lying in bed ? He has lain there since he came back from school.”Judy replied, “ OK, Mom ! I'll go and check on him after I have laid the table.”

 In fact, Judy knew that John was worrying about his examination results. She had told John that lying about it would make matters worse. John had lied before and Mother would be furious if he lied again this time.

 學生列表去分辨 lay, lie, laying, lying, lain, laid, lied 糾纏不清的動詞:

 Stem(詞幹) Past Tense(過去式) Past Participle(過去分詞) Present Participle(現在分詞)

 lie(說謊)   lied      lied        lying

 lie(躺)    lay      lain        lying

 lay(擺放)   laid      laid        laying

 試用lie或lay的各種變化,完成這個故事:

 “ Hey, Pal ! How long(1)_________ you __________ there ? Don't(2)________ to Mom again ! ” Judy said to John. Mother shouted out from the kitchen again, “ Come out for dinner, John ! I don't want to see you (3)_________there all evening and it's no use (4)____to me about your exam results. Your teacher called me this afternoon and I know everything now !” ( Answers :1. have lain2. lie 3. lying 4. lying )  ■韓Sir
