進階片語動詞與搭配詞

🎯 這一課你會學會

兩種讓你「聽起來像母語者」的東西:更進階的片語動詞(come across、put up with…)和搭配詞(collocations——哪些字天生搭在一起,如 make a decision 不是 do a decision)。B2 的流利,很大一部分靠這些。

💬 先聽一段對話

Mia: How's the new job?（新工作如何?) Jun: Good, but I have to put up with a long commute. I'm looking into moving closer.（不錯,但得忍受很長的通勤。我正在考慮搬近一點。) Mia: Makes sense. Did you come across any nice areas?（有道理。有發現不錯的區域嗎?) Jun: A few. It'll work out — I just need to make a decision.（幾個。會解決的——我只是得做個決定。)

🔑 常用進階片語動詞

片語動詞	中譯	例句
come across	偶然發現/遇到	I came across an old photo.
put up with	忍受	I can't put up with the noise.
look forward to	期待(+ -ing)	I look forward to seeing you.
get on with	相處融洽;繼續做	I get on with my boss.
carry out	執行	carry out a plan
turn out	結果是	It turned out fine.
run out of	用完	We ran out of time.
look into	調查、研究	I'll look into it.

注意 look forward to + -ing:這個 to 是介系詞,後面接動名詞——I look forward to seeing you(❌ to see)。

🧩 文法點:搭配詞(collocations)——哪些字天生一對

英語很多「動詞 + 名詞」是固定搭配,用錯字雖然聽得懂,但一聽就知道不是母語者:

① make / do 最常錯:

• make:make a decision、make a mistake、make progress、make an effort、make friends。
• do:do research、do homework、do business、do someone a favor、do the dishes。
• ❌ do a decision、❌ make a research —— 全錯。

② take / have / pay 的常見搭配:

• take:take a risk、take a break、take action、take responsibility、take a photo。
• have:have a look、have an effect、have fun、have a rest。
• pay:pay attention、pay a compliment、pay a visit。

③ 怎麼學搭配:別死背——整組記(不是背 decision,而是記 make a decision)。多讀多聽,自然就知道哪些字在一起。

📒 高頻搭配(整組記)

搭配	中譯
make a decision	做決定
take a risk	冒險
pay attention	注意
do research	做研究
have an effect	有影響

🗣️ 發音提醒

• 片語動詞重音多在小字:come aCROSS、look INto、run OUT of。
• put up with 三個字連讀「pu-dup-with」。
• look forward to →「look-FOR-wərd-tə」,to 弱讀。

✍️ 開口練習

練習 1:配對片語動詞意思。 說出:come across / put up with / turn out / run out of / look into 的意思。

練習 2:make 還是 do?

• ＿ a decision → make　　＿ research → do
• ＿ a mistake → make　　＿ someone a favor → do

練習 3:用三個片語動詞 + 兩個搭配詞講你的近況。

I'm looking into ＿. I need to make a decision about ＿.

🎒 帶走

• 進階片語動詞:come across(偶遇)、put up with(忍受)、look into(調查)、turn out(結果是)…look forward to + -ing。
• 搭配詞整組記:make a decision、do research、take a risk、pay attention——用錯字一聽就露餡。
