<3 俐媽好書推薦： And the Mountains Echoed
「追風箏的孩子」作者再一力作，大推！
裡面有好多很生動流暢的描述、精鍊的辭藻，而且也有好多高中重點單字及句型文法，俐媽想和大家分享，今天先推出Part I分享篇喔！
<3 劇情摘要重點單字：
poverty (n.) 貧窮
trade (v.) 交換；(n.) 貿易
set off (phrase) 出發
fateful (a.) 決定命運的
<3 重點句型：
It was in the 1990s that fughting at least brought...
--> 強調句用法：It was + 強調部分(可為人、物、地、時) + that...
It was me to whom the doctor spoke most often.
--> 此句亦為「強調句」，而片語speak to sb表「和...人說話」，介系詞to向前移到關代that之前，而因that前面不可有逗點及介系詞，因此that改為受格關代whom。
He called for his father again and again, a claw tightening itself around his windpipe.
--> 除了大家很熟悉的分詞構句，也要多學習一下獨立分詞構句。原句為：He called for his father..., and a claw tightened itself...，其中連接詞and被省略，主詞he以及a claw不相同，故a claw留下，再將動詞改為表主動的tightening。這是生動寫作的其中一種常見手法。
I felt as though I had been the one cuckolded.
--> as though即等於as if，表「彷彿」，為假設語氣的一種，所以與過去事實相反，要改用過去完成式(had been the one...)
What if he fell into a well, or got lost?
--> what if亦為假設語氣，時態一樣要退一步，文中原為現在式，故退成了過去式(fell into...got lost...)
I had little trouble carrying him for I was still young and able.
--> have trouble/problem/difficulty + Ving為固定句型，而文中的for是連接詞，表「因為」。
<3 重點片語：
take the initiative (phrase) 採取主動；先發制人 --> EEC寶貝，這可是這週上課的重點補充之一喔！
俐媽祝大家學習愉快！

請問各位前輩
After _______ a bite of cake, I just couldn’t stop.
答案是I took,
但老師說另一個選項my taking 也對, 請問填入my taking文法上是對的嘛?
如果不對 是為什麼呢? 謝謝
