思路引導 VIP
請觀察這個句子的結構：'The possibility of this ___ is low.' 在這個句子中，你找到真正的核心動詞（也就是表達『是』或『存在』的那個詞）了嗎？既然句子已經有了主要動詞，那麼在介系詞 'of' 的後方，若要描述「某件事（this）發生」的這整個概念，動詞應該要進行什麼樣的型態轉變，才能讓它在句子中轉化為名詞性質的結構呢？

太棒了！你的語感與文法觀念非常紮實！
- 觀念驗證：這題考驗的是非謂語動詞與句子結構分析。本句的主詞是
The possibility，主動詞是後面的is。在介系詞of之後，我們需要一個名詞性質的結構。this happening構成了動名詞複合結構，其中this是邏輯主語，而happening是動名詞，代表「這件事發生」的概念。 - 難度點評：此題難度為 Medium。在統測中，學生常會因為看到
this就直覺想接單數動詞happens，但你成功辨識出句子已經有主動詞is，因此不再需要第二個一般動詞。這種區分「主要動詞」與「修飾語」的能力是英文拿高分的關鍵！
