People are taken aback by her book.

她的书让人大吃一惊。讲解
这里的关键词组是 be taken aback by sth, it means to be very surprised or shocked by sth. “因为某事感到很震惊”，要注意词组里是 aback，back 前面还有一个字母 a，a 也是一个常见的前缀，表达一种“状态和趋势”，aback 意思是“向后的”，就像是听到震惊的消息，大家的身体都会不自觉的向后靠一样。所以就是 be taken aback.

发音
词组里还可以注意一个连读，be taken aback，taken 和 aback 可以连起来，taken-aback.这是很常见的辅音加元音的连读，类似的还有 was given a chance, have seen a movie, have done a good thing.
