漫畫中,Robin 寫了一句話:“… have a … lovely … old … little … round … brown … American … ball.”
Martha 說:“There’s a mistake in the order of your adjectives.
The word ‘little’ should be in front of ‘old’. There is a rule for that.”
Q34. What may the order of the adjectives on the paper be?
(紙上的形容詞順序應該是什麼?)
(A) feeling-age-size-shape-color-country
(B) feeling-size-age-shape-color-country ← 正確答案
(C) country-feeling-color-size-age-shape ← 我的答案
(D) feeling-age-size-color-shape-country
我的答案:(C)沒把圖裡的句子和選項一個一個對,用猜的
正確答案:(B)把 Robin 的原句照 Martha 的指示修正一次,順序就出來了
錯在哪裡
這題不需要背文法規則,題目已經把規則「演」給你看了,但沒有拿筆去對。
漫畫裡有兩個現成的線索: ① Robin 寫下的整串形容詞:lovely, old, little, round, brown, American ② Martha 的更正:little 要放到 old 前面
