LarkVeil 學測英文非選題：洗衣前的分類與檢查 — 範例解析

測驗重點解析

本題重點：doing laundry、may seem + 形容詞、clothes of different materials or colors、be suitable for + V-ing。

句型說明

1. 動名詞作主詞

Doing laundry 是動名詞片語，在句中作主詞，視為單數，因此若使用現在式動詞，應搭配單數形式。

2. may seem + 形容詞

may seem simple 表示「可能看起來很簡單」。seem 後接形容詞，不寫成 seem simply。

3. be suitable for + V-ing

be suitable for 表示「適合……」，介系詞 for 後接名詞或動名詞：suitable for washing together。

參考答案

Doing laundry may seem simple, but clothes of different materials or colors may not be suitable for washing together.

推薦答案

Laundry may look easy, but some clothes should be washed separately because of their material or color.

加分寫法

Although doing laundry appears straightforward, garments made of different materials or in different colors are not always safe to wash in the same load.

常見錯誤

不要寫：

Wash clothes seems simply, but different material and color clothes may not suitable to wash together.

錯誤原因：

1. 作主詞時應使用動名詞 Doing laundry，不可直接用原形動詞 Wash。
2. seem 後接形容詞 simple，不是副詞 simply。
3. clothes 為複數，且應寫 clothes of different materials or colors。
4. may not 後須有原形動詞 be：may not be suitable。
5. suitable for 後接動名詞，不寫 suitable to wash。

測驗重點解析

本題重點：before + V-ing、check the care label、sort the clothes、lower the risk of + V-ing。

句型說明

1. before + V-ing

當前後動作的執行者相同時，可用 before + V-ing 簡潔表達「在……之前」：before starting the washing machine。

2. check the care label

care label 指衣物上的洗滌與保養標示。若泛指多件衣物上的標示，可使用複數 care labels。

3. sort + 受詞

sort the clothes 表示將衣物依材質、顏色或清洗方式分類。若要補充分類依據，可寫 sort the clothes by color。

4. lower the risk of + V-ing

lower the risk of damaging them 表示降低損壞衣物的風險。介系詞 of 後接動名詞 damaging。

參考答案

Before starting the washing machine, checking the care labels and sorting the clothes can lower the risk of damaging them.

推薦答案

We can reduce the chance of damaging our clothes by checking their care labels and sorting them before turning on the washing machine.

加分寫法

Checking each garment's care label and separating the laundry before a wash cycle helps protect clothes from unnecessary damage.

常見錯誤

不要寫：

Before start the washing machine, see the care labels and classify clothes can reduce the risk to damage them.

錯誤原因：

1. before 後若接動作，使用 starting，不可寫 before start。
2. 「查看標示」用 check the care labels，see 只表示看見，不含確認之意。
3. 衣物分類最自然的動詞是 sort，不是 classify。
4. 兩個動名詞片語作主詞時要保持平行：checking... and sorting...。
5. 應寫 the risk of damaging，不是 the risk to damage。
