    示範例句 · Example

    Ren took up boxing when he was fifteen.

    逐字阿仁在他十五歲的時候開始從事拳擊。

    「boxing」是一項運動的名字,不是一般的打架:兩個人戴上厚厚的皮手套,在一個叫 ring 的方形場地裡比賽,有規則、有裁判、有回合。它是不可數名詞,所以說 I like boxing,不說 a boxing。這個字可以想成是動詞 box(用拳頭打)加上 -ing 變成「這項活動本身」,就像 run→running、swim→swimming 一樣。跟 wrestling 容易搞混——boxing 是戴手套用拳頭,wrestling 是抱住對方、把對方摔倒。

core核心畫面

Think of two people with thick leather gloves on their fists, shut inside a square roped-off space, hitting each other under agreed rules and a referee — fighting, but turned into a sport.

可以想成這樣的畫面:兩個人戴上厚厚的皮手套,被關進一個四方形、圍著繩子的台上,在裁判和規則之下互相出拳。它的重點是「打」這件事被裝進了運動的框架裡——有回數、有規則、有勝負,所以是一項比賽,不是街頭上的打架。
