The fire, fueled by dry plants and strong winds, has rapidly spread and is currently covering 43 acres. Local authorities, along with dedicated firefighting teams, are working diligently to stop the fire. Evacuation orders have been issued in several communities within the fire's path to ensure the safety of residents. Emergency shelters have been set up for those affected by the wildfire. The situation remains dynamic and challenging due to the unpredictable nature of wildfires.

[問]:請問EXERCISE 實戰演練為何the conditions 後面直接接形容詞，沒有be動詞在兩者之間~? 

[答]: 因為這是形容詞片語 “conducive to hail formation”，修飾前方名詞。
原句： … specific weather patterns has created the conditions conducive to hail formation.
 此句已經有動詞 has created … 不可以再有第二個動詞喔。 

這裡的文法觀念「形容詞片語」類似於關係代名詞省略的分詞∕形容詞片語，也歡迎參閱超級英語通系列的「句型英語通」的 Pattern 85(https://channelplus.ner.gov.tw/viewalllang/118) 喔。
