我今天早上讚美了我的朋友的新髮型。它真的很適合他們,我覺得看起來非常棒,所以我告訴了他們。
Just this morning, I praised my friend for their new haircut. It really suited them, and I thought it looked fantastic, so I made sure to let them know how great they looked.
就在今天早上,我讚美了我的朋友他們的新髮型。它真的很適合他們,我覺得看起來非常棒,所以我特地告訴他們看起來有多好。
語法分析
1. 過去簡單式:使用過去簡單式("praised", "suited", "thought", "looked")有效地描述了發生在過去的已完成動作。 2. 使役結構:"made sure to let them know" 這個片語展示了使役結構的用法,表明說話者有意確保他們的朋友知道這個讚美。

考官答案
I don't remember the last time I praised someone. I usually show appreciation by doing things for them instead of saying it.
我不記得上一次讚美別人是什麼時候了。我通常透過為他們做事情來表達感謝,而不是說出來。
I can't quite recall the last time I verbally praised someone. It's been a while, as I tend to show appreciation through actions rather than words. I believe actions speak louder than words, so I often express my gratitude by helping others out or doing something nice for them.
我不太記得上一次口頭讚美別人是什麼時候了。已經有一段時間了,因為我傾向於通過行動而非言語來表達感激。我相信行動勝於言辭,所以我經常通過幫助別人或為他們做些好事來表達我的感謝。
語法分析
1. 情態動詞的使用:「I can't quite recall」使用了情態動詞「can't」來表達不確定性,顯示說話者無法回憶起具體事件。 2. 連接詞的使用:「as I tend to show appreciation through actions rather than words」使用「as」來引出原因,解釋為什麼口頭表揚不常出現。

  • express my gratitude
