在九月份我自己把 Island of the Blue Dolphins ( 1961 Newbery Medal Winner )看完了,
很喜欢作者Scott O'Dell 的文笔, 文字很容易打动心弦. 书中使用了不少倒装句式 (Inversion), 例如
So hard did the women work that we really fared better than before when the hunting was done by the men.
I knew that only by the best of fortune would I ever reach it.
On this mound, among the grasses and the plants, stood Rontu.
Only then did I know that Mon-a-nee was their mother.
I had an otter cape for my shoulders, which I used until it wore out, but never again did I make a new one.
Never in my life on the island had I see the tide so low.
我觉得值得推荐给女儿看, 我还特意找来了一些视频, 先让她了解倒装句式,
学完了都快两星期了, 书本还沒开始看. 唉, 初中生活抽时间看英语课外书, 真的有点奢望
