用法說明
How is "Shocked" different from similar structures?What usage mistakes are common with "Shocked"?
shocked doing vs shocked to do
- shocked doing 通常用於描述一個持續或反覆發生的、令人震驚的狀態或行為，強調的是「震驚地正在做某事」或「對做某事本身感到震驚」。
- shocked to do 則強調在「某個特定時間點」或「發現某個事實時」所感受到的震驚，常用於表達對一個具體事件或結果的反應。
- 在許多情況下，兩者可以互換，但細微差別在於 doing 側重過程或習慣，而 to do 側重瞬間的發現或結果。 EN: We were shocked seeing the vandalism in our neighborhood every morning. 翻譯: 我們每天早上看到社區裡的破壞行為都感到震驚。
EN:We were shocked to see the extent of the vandalism this morning.
翻譯:我們今早看到破壞行為的嚴重程度時，大為震驚。

翻譯:她對於他經常粗魯地對顧客說話感到震驚。

常見錯誤
What are common mistakes with "Shocked"?Which "Shocked" sentences look correct but are wrong?
×I was shocking.
✓I was shocked.
當描述人的感受時，應使用過去分詞 'shocked'（感到震驚），而非現在分詞 'shocking'（令人震驚的）。
×I shocked at the price.
✓I was shocked at the price.
動詞 'shock' 在表示「感到震驚」時，通常以被動語態 'be shocked' 出現，後面接 'at', 'by', 'to hear' 等。
×It shocked me very much.
✓I was very shocked. / It shocked me.
雖然 'It shocked me very much.' 文法上正確，但母語者更常使用 'I was very shocked.' 或 'It shocked me.'。'very much' 在此處顯得多餘且不自然。
×I am shocking to see that.
✓I am shocked to see that.
表達當下的感受時，應使用 'am shocked'（感到震驚），而不是 'am shocking'（我是令人震驚的）。
×He felt shocking.
✓He felt shocked.
動詞 'feel' 後面應接描述感受的形容詞 'shocked'（感到震驚的），而非 'shocking'（令人震驚的）。
×The news made me shocking.
✓The news shocked me. / The news made me shocked.
'make someone + adjective' 結構中，形容詞應描述某人的狀態，因此要用 'shocked'（感到震驚的）。'shocking' 是形容事物本身令人震驚。
