expected from a person 點解 ?
發問:
A director need not exhibit a greater degree of skill than may be expected from a person of his knowlege and experience. 句中 .. than may be expected from a person of his knowlege and experience.點解 ? 看起來好複雜, 可以寫成兩句嗎 ?
最佳解答:
句子其實有個 that/what 字、不過巳被省略。 A director need not exhibit a greater degree of skill than that may be expected from a person of his knowledge and experience. A director need not exhibit a greater degree of skill than what may be expected from a person of his knowledge and experience. 而 that 在句中是指 skill。what 是指某東西，在句中也是指 the degree of skill。 中文意思是 董事不須要展示出較他知識和經驗為高的能力。 要求董事的能力只需同他有的知識和經驗相稱。 可以寫成兩句嗎﹖ that/what may be expected from a person of his knowledge and experience. 是一個名詞性分句(noun clause)，全句應是一句為佳，這句類似法律條文固此會較複雜，日常用語可作以下寫法 A director need not exhibit a greater degree of skill than his knowledge and experience allow.

'Need' is not commonly used as an auxiliary verb nowadays, but formerly it was. A director need not...= A director does not need to... (Ref: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/English_modal_auxiliary_verb#Dare_and_need)|||||全句大約是 董事不一定要展示出較一般人為高的知識和經驗. 英文可改寫成 A director's knowlege and experience needed not exhibit a greater degree of proficiency than any other person.
