代名詞形式一覽表
- 主格放在動詞之前:
They approved the budget. - 受格放在動詞或介系詞之後:
Please send us the file./between you and me。 - 所有格形容詞放在名詞之前:
our clients。所有格代名詞代替「所有格形容詞 + 名詞」,後面不接名詞:This desk is mine.(= my desk)。 - its(它的)不同於 it's(= it is / it has)。所有格代名詞沒有撇號:
yours, ours, theirs。
| 主格 | 受格 | 所有格形容詞 | 所有格代名詞 | 反身代名詞 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| I | me | my | mine | myself |
| you | you | your | yours | yourself / yourselves |
| he | him | his | his | himself |
| she | her | her | hers | herself |
| it | it | its | (極少使用) | itself |
| we | us | our | ours | ourselves |
| they | them | their | theirs | themselves |
- Ms. Lopez sent her report to the director yesterday.羅培茲女士昨天把她的報告寄給了主管。
- Our proposal was cheaper than theirs.我們的提案比他們的便宜。
- The company changed its logo last year.公司去年更換了標誌。
反身代名詞
- 主詞和受詞是同一人/物時:
The new interns introduced themselves to the team. - 加強語氣(emphatic),緊接在名詞之後或放在句尾,拿掉後句子仍然正確:
The president himself answered the call./I checked the figures myself. - by + 反身代名詞 = 獨自、沒有人幫忙:
She completed the audit by herself.相當於on + 所有格形容詞 + own:on her own。 meet, relax, feel, concentrate等動詞之後不用反身代名詞:說We met at 9,不說met ourselves。
- Mr. Chen designed the entire website by himself.陳先生獨自設計了整個網站。
- Applicants should familiarize themselves with the job requirements.應徵者應先熟悉職務要求。
不定代名詞
由 some-, any-, no-, every- 與 -one, -body, -thing, -where 組成。它們一律搭配單數動詞。
- someone/something 用於肯定句以及邀請/提議;anyone/anything 用於否定句和疑問句,或表示任何人。
- no one / nobody / nothing 本身已有否定意義,不再加
not:Nobody has replied. - everyone(每個人)不同於 every one(每一個):
Every one of the boxes was checked. - 再次提到
everyone, someone, anyone時,通常用 they/their:Everyone must bring their ID card. - 形容詞放在不定代名詞之後:
something new、anyone interested。
- Is there anyone who can cover the front desk on Saturday?有人可以在週六代班櫃檯嗎?
- Everyone in the department has completed the training.部門裡的每個人都已完成訓練。
one / ones、those who、that of / those of
- one(單數)和 ones(複數)代替前面提過的可數名詞以避免重複:
This model is cheaper than the old one./We replaced the broken chairs with new ones.不可數名詞不能用 one。 - those who = 那些……的人:
Those who register early will receive a discount.後面的動詞用複數。anyone who + 單數動詞。 - that of 代替單數/不可數名詞,those of 代替複數名詞,常用於比較:
The salary of a manager is higher than that of an assistant./Our prices are lower than those of our competitors. - this/that + 單數,these/those + 複數:
These documents need your signature.
- The sales figures for this year are better than those of last year.今年的銷售數字比去年的好。
- Those who wish to attend the dinner should reply by Monday.想參加晚宴的人應在週一前回覆。
依句中位置選擇代名詞形式
Part 5 的代名詞題通常會給同一個人稱的四種形式。不要翻譯;先判斷空格在句中的哪個位置,再對照下表。
- 複合主詞的訣竅:把另一個人拿掉再讀讀看。
Ms. Diaz and ------- will lead the session→------- will lead→ I,不是 me 或 myself。 - 比較句中
than和as之後,正式文體用主格代名詞加助動詞:She has more experience than he does.口語中說than him也可以接受。
| 位置 | 代名詞形式 | 例句 |
|---|---|---|
| 有時態的動詞前(主詞) | 主格:I, he, she, we, they | They will review the contract tomorrow. |
| 用 and/or 連接的複合主詞 | 仍用主格 | Mr. Lee and I will attend the fair. |
| 動詞後、介系詞後 | 受格:me, him, her, us, them | Please contact us. / between you and me |
| 名詞前、own 前 | 所有格形容詞:my, his, her, our, their | their budget, on his own |
| 單獨使用,代替名詞片語 | 所有格代名詞:mine, hers, ours, theirs | Your proposal was cheaper than ours. |
| a/this + 名詞 + of 結構中 of 之後 | 所有格代名詞(雙重所有格) | a colleague of mine, a client of hers |
| 受詞與主詞相同、by 之後、表示強調 | 反身代名詞:myself, themselves | She prepared the slides herself. |
- The client asked us to send the revised quote to her assistant.客戶請我們把修改後的報價單寄給她的助理。
- Mr. Okada and I will meet the suppliers on Tuesday.Okada 先生和我將在星期二與供應商見面。
段落中的代名詞指涉(Part 6)
Part 6 常在整段文章的脈絡中考代名詞:必須讀前一句,才知道代名詞指的是哪個名詞、那個名詞是單數還是複數、指人還是指物。
- 單數的公司、機構、產品 →
it/its:Brightline Foods opened its first store in 2015.員工、客戶等一群人 →they/their/them。 - this 或 that 可以代替前一句的整個意思,而不只是一個名詞:
The supplier raised its prices by 15%. This means we must revise the budget. - 代替剛提過的複數名詞,用 these/those 或
these + 名詞:We have received several complaints. These will be reviewed by the quality team. - such + 名詞 = 這類的(事情):
Such requests must be approved in advance. - 對於已提過的可數名詞,指同類的另一個時用 one/ones,指同一個東西時用 it/them:
I lost my badge, so I need a new one./I found my badge; it was in my car.
- Our new branch opened last week. It is located near the central station.我們的新分店上週開幕。分店位於中央車站附近。
- Several employees requested flexible hours. Their requests are being reviewed.有幾位員工申請彈性工時。他們的申請正在審核中。
whoever、whatever、whichever 與 each other
字尾 -ever 的代名詞既在自己的子句中當主詞或受詞,又把該子句連接到句子裡。它們常和 who、what、which 一起出現在 Part 5 的選項中。
whoever=anyone who,用在後面的子句缺少主詞時:Whoever needs a parking pass should contact HR.(= Anyone who needs a parking pass...)。- 不要把
whoever和who搞混:who前面需要一個名詞讓它修飾(the person who...),而whoever本身就能當主詞或受詞,不需要任何名詞。
| 代名詞 | 意思 | 例句 |
|---|---|---|
| whoever | 任何人、無論誰 | Whoever arrives first should unlock the office. |
| whatever | 任何事物、無論什麼 | We will provide whatever support you need. |
| whichever | (在給定範圍內)無論哪一個 | Choose whichever option suits your schedule. |
| each other, one another | 彼此、互相 | Team members should support each other. |
- The prize will go to whoever submits the best design.獎項將頒給提交最佳設計的人。
- The two teams communicate with each other every day.兩個團隊每天都互相聯繫。
多益解題技巧
- Part 5 的代名詞題通常四個選項是同一人稱(
she / her / hers / herself)。判斷位置:動詞之前 → 主格(she);動詞/介系詞之後 → 受格(her);名詞之前 → 所有格形容詞(her);單獨代替整個名詞片語 → 所有格代名詞(hers)。 - 當受詞就是主詞本身時選反身代名詞(
She introduced herself);放在 by 之後(= 獨自、親自)或用於主詞後/句尾加強語氣時也用反身代名詞(The CEO herself will attend)。如果句子成分已完整而空格在句尾,反身代名詞通常就是答案。 own之前一定是所有格形容詞:their own office、on his own。- Part 6:先找出代名詞所代替的名詞。單數的公司、產品 →
it/its;一群人或複數事物 →they/their/them。比較時用that of(單數/不可數)或those of(複數)來避免重複名詞。

常見問題
英文代名詞有哪些種類?
多益常見的代名詞包括:主格和受格的人稱代名詞(I/me, they/them)、所有格形容詞(my, their)、所有格代名詞(mine, theirs)、反身代名詞(myself, themselves)、不定代名詞(someone, anything, everyone)、指示代名詞(this, these, that, those),以及關係代名詞(who, which, that,在關係子句單元學習)。
所有格形容詞和所有格代名詞有什麼不同?
所有格形容詞(my, your, his, her, its, our, their)一定放在名詞前:our office。所有格代名詞(mine, yours, his, hers, ours, theirs)單獨使用,代替整個「所有格形容詞 + 名詞」:This office is ours(= our office)。訣竅:空格後面緊接名詞,選所有格形容詞;空格後面是句號、動詞或介系詞,選所有格代名詞。
什麼時候用反身代名詞?
有三種情況。第一,受詞就是主詞本身:The interns introduced themselves。第二,在 by 之後表示獨自、親自:He fixed the printer by himself。第三,用來強調,放在主詞後或句尾:The CEO herself answered the call。在 Part 5 中,如果句子成分已完整而空格在句尾,答案通常是反身代名詞。
its 和 it's 有什麼不同?
its 是所有格形容詞,意思是「它的」,放在名詞前:The company changed its logo。it's 是 it is 或 it has 的縮寫:It's important to back up your files。所有格代名詞永遠沒有撇號:寫 yours, ours, theirs,不寫 your's 或 their's。
要說 "between you and me" 還是 "between you and I"?
正確的是 between you and me。介系詞(between, for, with, to...)之後必須用受格代名詞,即使是用 and 連接的兩個人也一樣:for Ms. Park and me、with him and his team。反過來,在主詞位置就用主格:Ms. Park and I will attend。檢查訣竅是把另一個人拿掉:for me 聽起來正確,for I 就是錯的。
that of 和 those of 什麼時候用?
用在比較句中,以避免重複前面提過的名詞。that of 代替單數或不可數名詞,those of 代替複數名詞:The price of our service is lower than that of our competitors(that = the price);Our sales figures are higher than those of last year(those = the sales figures)。如果拿掉 that of 寫成 lower than our competitors,就變成拿價格和公司比較,邏輯上是錯的。
