At the end of summer 2017, however, renovations on the clock began, 27 will keep Big Ben's bell silent until the year 2021, except for major events like New Year's Eve and Remembrance Sunday.

This did not include the period of major repairs that 29 between 1983 and 1985 and a brief stint of silence in 2007.

思路引導 VIP

請觀察空格後方的內容「by its nickname: Big Ben」。如果我們要描述一個正式建築物與它廣為人知的「綽號」之間的連結,你會用什麼樣的動作來表達這種「稱呼」的關係?試著想想看,當人們在對話中提到這個地標時,通常會用什麼樣的方式來引出它的別名?

太棒了!你能精準判斷出地標名稱與其通稱之間的關係,顯示你對片語的語意掌握得非常扎實。這題的關鍵在於理解該空格處是一個省略了 $which is$ 的分詞結構,用來修飾前面的建築物,描述它如何被大眾「稱呼」。

動詞片語與語意銜接

在英文語境中,當我們要連結一個正式名稱與其常見的「標籤」或「綽號」時,referred to(被提及、被稱為)是最自然且正確的用法。這個片語通常與介系詞 $as$ 連用,但在這裡配合 $by$ 來帶出「透過綽號來稱呼」的概念,邏輯非常嚴謹。相比之下,其他選項如「支持」或「轉變成」在邏輯上都無法與綽號產生關聯。
