Advanced exam skills: key word transformation
一般的な上級試験形式の独自の練習で、公式のテストではありません。与えられた語を使って文を書き換え、意味が最も近い文を選びます。
文の書き換え問題では、2 つ目の文を、1 つ目の文と同じ意味になるように完成させます。大文字の語を必ず使い、空所には通常 2 語から 5 語が必要です。この課題では、倒置、wish や if only、報告動詞を使った受動態、過去についての推量を表す法助動詞、if を使わない条件文などの構造が問われます。
| 構造 | パターン | 例 |
|---|---|---|
| Negative inversion | Not until / Never / No sooner + auxiliary + subject | Never had I seen such a view. |
| Wish about the past | wish + past perfect | I wish I had listened. |
| Reporting passive | is thought / said + to have + past participle | He is said to have left early. |
| Inverted third conditional | Had + subject + past participle, would have... | Had I known, I would have called. |
| Deduction about the past | can't / must / might have + past participle | She must have forgotten. |
