關於TPO11聽力講稿一句話 - 英檢

※ 引述《zone0076 (不屬於人類的天堂)》之銘言：
: Science writing, history, political analysis and so forth aren't literature,
: perhaps, but they are often of high quality and these kinds of books can be
: just as creative and round-written as a novel or a play.
: 請問of high quality 是修飾哪個名詞呢 怎麼前面突然出現are?
出自

of的用法非常多
這個用法是 of + 名詞 = 形容詞片語
(表是年齡 . 色彩. 職業的時候 常常把of省略了)
最常見的就是
be (of) no use

中國俗語說 覆水難收
但是西方人說
'It's no use crying over spilt milk.'
就是這個用法

另外就是像本句中的的肯定用法 通常搭配 value, interest, importance
This subject is of great interest to me.

: 是不是跟tpo 7的聽力 habitat selection裡面的
: For example, in Europe studies have been done of blackcap warbler.
分析一下就會發現這個句子不是 be + of + n.

這裡的of 是另一個用法 of 是關於的意思
不過搬家了
In Europe studies of blackcap warbler have been done.
這個是修辭的問題
尤其是有時修飾語很長的時候

我們在論文中常常這樣說
Studies have been done to show that recycling is better for the earth.

Studies have been done that show the happiest people are single women.

A number of studies have been completed to analyze the effects of X.

Many studies have been done examining the effects Y.
: 和這句的一樣呢
: 我兩句都看不太懂他的語法是怎樣 有人可以幫忙解釋一下嗎
: 謝謝.
