That is 20 green tea is so good for health.
答案:(D) why
【句型】That is why... 固定句型「這就是為什麼……」,承接前文原因,帶出結果;whether(是否)、whenever(每當)、what(這裡是解釋「為什麼」不是「什麼」)都不合。
That is ______ 這個開頭,很多人第一個想到的是 what,因為 what 在腦中就等於「什麼」,而 That is what... 也確實是常見句型。這一格要分辨的是:空格後面接的到底是「原因」還是「東西」。
把空格後面那一串單獨拿出來看缺不缺成分:green tea is so good for health 的主詞、動詞、補語全都齊了,一個名詞位置都不缺。what 進到子句裡一定要當主詞或受詞(它本身就等於 the thing that),這裡沒有空位給它,第一步就能刷掉。再看前後的邏輯:前面兩句講的是綠茶只乾燥不發酵、因此保留了有益的化學成分,這是「原因」;空格這一句 green tea is so good for health 是「結果」。前因後果,用 That is why(這就是為什麼)。順便把最常搞混的一組並排記起來:That is why + 結果;That is because + 原因。同一份考卷的第 27 題也在考 wh- 詞,那一題分的是「地方 vs 事物」,本題分的是「原因 vs 事物」,兩題可以對著看。
whether(是否):引導的是「是不是」的問題,前文沒有任何待決定的疑問,That is whether... 在這裡講不通。whenever(每當):引導時間子句,但前文給的是原因,不是時間點。what:理由如上,後面的子句不缺名詞位置,what 無處可放。
That is why(這就是為什麼,後接結果)、That is because(那是因為,後接原因)、be good for health(對健康有益)、help retain something(有助於保留某物)、be dried but not fermented(經乾燥但未發酵)、a possible allergic reaction(可能的過敏反應)。
