【问】
____ felt amazing not having to hide away behind my scarf. (2013四川卷完形填空)
A. It B. I
答案:A
问题:这道题的思路是什么?
【答】
amazing不是“惊讶的”,而是“令人惊讶的”,所以在逻辑上,amazing主语通常是“事”或“物”而不是“人”;amazed是“惊讶的”,在逻辑上其主语通常是“人”。即:Sth is amazing; Sb is amazed,这也是同类单词——如interesting/interested、exciting/excited、shocking/shocked——的共同逻辑。
例:
- It is surprising that Mr Moreira still has his job. 令人惊讶的是Moreira先生仍然拥有这份工作。
- We are surprised that Mr Moreira still has his job. 我们惊讶的是Moreira先生仍然拥有这份工作。
