各位好,請教一下 在中央社英語新聞看到這則內容 http://focustaiwan.tw/news/asoc/201804030002.aspx Taiwanese teen threatening school in U.S. had handmade gun, ammo Thornton, Pennsylvania, April 2 (CNA) A Taiwanese student who was arrested in the United States last week for threatening to shoot up his school had built a 9mm handgun with parts bought online and had over 1,600 rounds of ammunition for various firearms, U.S. media reported Monday. An Tso Sun (孫安佐), 18, had approximately 225 rounds of 12-gauge ammo, 663 rounds of 9mm ammunition, 295 rounds of AR-15 ammunition, and 425 rounds of AK-47 ammo, cbsphilly.com said, citing Michael Chitwood, superintendent of the Upper Darby police in Pennsylvania. ------------ 想請教 1.一般新聞標題不都用現在式代替過去式嗎?為何這則新聞的標題卻用過去式 的had呢? 2.第一段第三行and had over 1,600 rounds of ammunition...這個and had是過去式, 還是過去完成式(和前面的had built共用一個had)?不過第二段第一行確實是過去式的 had,因此第一段的and had似乎是過去式的可能較大? 這兩題貼於英語討論區https://goo.gl/wb7FUU -------------- (更新)網友J&K Tutoring回應: 1. I doubt the student still has the weapon. 2. Simple past. Not the same as the additional example cited. 但我不懂第二題,為何前面用過去完成式,後面用過去式?為何不統一呢? ------------- 3.(更新)usingenglish.com不順的問題似乎目前已解決 4.因為上述新聞標題的疑惑找到了這個網站 http://htmfiles.englishhome.org/grammar/newsenglish_syntax.htm 但我對它末段的說明有疑惑: TOULOUSE, France, July 19 (AP) - A train moving at 30 miles an hour hit another train stopped with mechanical problems today and 15 people were reported wounded. 在上例中,"moving at 30 miles an hour" 和 "stopped with mechanical problems" 分別為現在分詞 (moving) 與過去分詞 (stopped) 片語。 其實,不管是同位語還是分詞片語,它們都是關係子句,即形容詞子句的減化。所以上例 可以改寫或還原為 "A train which was moving at 30 miles an hour hit another train which had stopped with mechanical problems...."。 --------- stopped with mechanical problems如果原本是完成式的話, 應該減化成having stopped with mechanical problems....才對? 原句似乎比較像是which was stopped/had been stopped with mechanical problems ....的減化? 這則新聞的原始出處: https://www.nytimes.com/1988/07/20/world/15-hurt-in-french-crash.html 請教一下,謝謝! -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc), 來自: 111.251.42.83 ※ 文章網址: https://www.ptt.cc/bbs/Eng-Class/M.1522747677.A.ACB.html ※ 編輯: scju (111.251.42.83), 04/03/2018 23:31:01

SailorPluto: 1.新聞標題用過去式比比皆是,現在式是為了臨場感 04/04 05:35
感謝回應! 抱歉D大,您第四點回應我不太懂,我是想問原句對減化的說明是不是有誤?但您給的網址 是解釋同義詞@@a http://www.thesaurus.com/browse/stopped?s=t 第四點我寄信給站長,以下是他的回應: another train stopped with mechanical problems 就是 another train which was stopped with mechanical problems 的減化,因為時間副詞 today 的關係,stopped 和 hit 的動作並無明顯的先後關係,應視為一連串動作的一項。下句就有明顯的先後關係 :John told me yesterday that he had killed his wife.,約翰在告訴我之前已經殺 了他太太。 ※ 編輯: scju (111.251.42.83), 04/04/2018 10:01:24
