『壹』 英語寫作要注意的幾種情況:常見的10個句子錯誤
Incomplete Sentence - Sentence Fragment
句子不完整——殘缺句
One common mistake many students make is the use of incomplete sentences. Each sentence in English must contain at least a subject and a verb, and should be an independent clause. Examples of incomplete sentences without a subject or a verb might include an instruction or a prepositional phrase.
許多學生都會犯一個常見的錯誤,就是寫出來的句子不完整。英語中,每個句子都必須至少有一個主語,一個動詞,並單獨成句。沒有主語或動詞的殘缺句子可能就只有表示指令的句子或者介詞短語了。
For example:
例如:
Through the door.
穿過大門。
In the other room.
在另一個房間。
Over there.
在那裡。
These are phrases we may use in spoken English, but that should not be used in written English as they are incomplete.
在英語口語中,你可能會用到這些短語,但是因為它們畢竟不是完整的英語句子,所以在書面語言中,我們一般不會使用。
Sentence fragments caused by dependent clauses used without an independent clause are more common. Remember that subordinating conjunctions introce dependent clauses. In other words, if you use a subordinating clause beginning with a word such as 'because, though, if, etc.' there must be an independent clause to complete the thought. This mistake is often made on tests asking a question with 'Why'.
由於缺乏獨立分句的從屬子句導致的句子殘缺很常見。記住,從屬連詞引出了從屬子句。也就是說,如果你用一些詞語來引出從句,例如because,though,if等等,就必須要有一個獨立分句來使句子完整。我們在考試中,使用why來提出問題時,經常會犯這樣的錯誤。
For example, the sentences:
例如,下面這個句子:
Because Tom is the boss.
因為湯姆就是老闆。
Since he left work early without permission.
自從他不經允許就早退。
We might answer the question: "Why did he lose his job?" However, these are sentence fragments. The correct answer would be:
我們可能會問:「他為什麼丟掉工作?」但是,這些句子都是不完整的。正確用法應該是:
He lost his job because Tom is the boss.
因為湯姆就是老闆,所以他丟掉了工作。
He lost his job since he left work early without permission.
他因為不經允許就早退而丟掉了工作。
Other examples of incomplete sentences introced by subordinating clauses include:
其他關於從屬子句的殘缺句還包括下面內容:
Even though he needs help.
雖然他需要幫助
If they study enough.
如果他們好好學習
As they had invested in the company.
因為他們投資了這家公司
Run-on Sentences
句子不連貫
Run-on sentences are sentences that:
不連貫句子指的是:
1) are not connected by appropriate linking language such as conjunctions
缺乏合適的連接詞,例如連詞。
2) use too many clauses rather than using periods and linking language such as conjunctive adverbs
使用過多的從句,而非句號和連接語,例如連接副詞
The first type leaves out a word - usually a conjunction - that is required to connect a dependent and independent clause. For example:
第一種是漏掉了一個詞——通常是連接詞——用於連接非獨立子句和獨立子句。
The students did well on the test they didn't study very much.
學生們考得很好他們沒有下多少功夫。
Anna needs a new car she spent the weekend visiting car dealerships.
安娜想買輛新車她整個周末都在約見代理商。
The first sentence should use either a conjunction 'but', or 'yet' or a subordinating conjunction 'although, even though, or though' to connect the sentence. In the second sentence, the conjunction 'so' or the subordinating conjunction 'since, as, or because' would connect the two clauses.
第一句話要麼應該加上一個連詞but,要麼加上yet,或者一個從屬連詞although, even though或though來連接前後兩句。
The students did well, yet they didn't study very much.
學生們考得很好,但他們並沒有下多少功夫。
Anna spent the weekend visiting car dealerships since she needs a new car.
因為想買輛新車,安娜整個周末都在約見代理商。
Another common run on sentence occurs when using too many clauses. This often occurs using the word 'and'.
另一種句子不連貫發生在使用太多從句的時候。常常是由於and一詞導致。
We went to the store and bought some fruit, and we went to the mall to get some clothes, and we had lunch at McDonald's, and we visited some friends.
我們去商店買了一些水果,去購物商城買了一些衣服,在麥當勞吃的午飯,又見了一些朋友。
The continuous chain of clauses using 'and' should be avoided. In general, do not write sentences that contain more than three clauses to ensure that your sentences do not become run-on sentences.
我們應該避免使用and來連接一大串的從句。一般來說,從句不要超過三個,以確保句子的連貫性。
Duplicate Subjects
兩個主語
Sometimes students use a pronoun as a plicate subject.
有時候,學生們會將代詞作為第二個主語。
Remember that each clause takes only one sentence. If you have mentioned the subject of a sentence by name, there is no need to repeat with a pronoun.
記住,每個從句只需要一句話。如果之前你已經提到主語的名字,就不需要再用代詞重復了。
Example 1:
例一:
Tom lives in Los Angeles.
湯姆住在洛杉磯。
NOT
而不是
Tom, he lives in Lost Angeles.
湯姆,他住在舊金山。
Example 2:
例二:
The students come from Vietnam.
學生們來自越南。
NOT
而不是
The students they come from Vietnam.
學生們他們來自越南。
Incorrect Tense
時態錯誤
Tense usage is a common mistake in student writing. Make sure that the tense used corresponds to the situation. In other words, if you are speaking about something that happened in the past do not use include a tense that refers to the present. For example:
時態錯誤在學生寫作中很常見。你要確保時態與事情發生的情況一致。也就是說,如果你要表達的是發生在過去的事,就不要使用現在時態。例如:
They fly to visit their parents in Toronto last week.
上周他們坐飛機去看望父母。
Alex bought a new car and drives it to her home in Los Angeles.
亞歷克斯買了一輛新車,並把它開進了洛杉磯的家。
Incorrect Verb Form
動詞形式錯誤
Another common mistake is the use of an incorrect verb form when combining with another verb. Certain verbs in English take the infinitive and others take the gerund (ing form).
另一個常見的錯誤就是在與其他動詞連用時,動詞形式的錯誤。英語中的動詞既有不定式形式,又有動名詞形式。
It's important to learn these verb combinations. Also, when using the verb as a noun, use the gerund form of the verb.
學習這些動詞的連用很重要。當動詞作為名詞使用時,就要使用動名詞形式。
He hopes finding a new job. / Correct -> He hopes to find a new job.
他想找一個新工作。
Peter avoided to invest in the project. / Correct -> Peter avoided investing in the project.
皮特沒有在這個項目上投資。
Parallel Verb Form
動詞復數形式
A related issue is the use of parallel verb forms when using a list of verbs. If you are writing in the present continuous tense, use the 'ing' form in your list. If you are using the present perfect, use the past participle, etc.
在使用多個動詞時,有一個問題就是動詞復數形式的使用。如果你是在用現在進行時進行寫作,就應該使用動詞ing形式。如果你使用的是現在完成時,就應該使用過去分詞形式。
She enjoys watching TV, play tennis, and cook. / Correct -> She enjoys watching TV, playing tennis, and cooking.
她喜歡看電視,打網球和烹飪。
I've lived in Italy, working in Germany and study in New York. / Correct -> I've lived in Italy, worked in Germany, and studied in New York.
我住在義大利,在德國工作,在紐約讀書。
Use of Time Clauses
時間從句的使用
Time clauses are introced by the time words 'when', 'before', 'after' and so on. When speaking about the present or future use the present simple tense in time clauses. If using a past tense, we usually use the past simple in a time clause.
時間從句由時間詞語引導,例如when,before,after等等。當我們表達現在或將來的事時,可以使用一般現在時的時間從句。如果使用過去時態,通常會使用過去時的時間從句。
We'll visit you when we will come next week. / Correct -> We'll visit you when we come next week.
下周我們會來看你。
She cooked dinner after he was arriving. / Correct -> She cooked dinner after he arrived.
他到了之後,她才開始煮飯。
Subject - Verb Agreement
主謂一致
Another common mistake is to use incorrect subject - verb agreement. The most common of these mistakes is the missing 's' in the present simple tense. However, there are other types of mistakes. Always look for these mistakes in the helping verb.
另一個常見的錯誤就是主謂不一致。最常見的就是一般現在時中漏掉了-s。但是,還有其他類型的錯誤。這些錯誤常發生在助動詞的使用上。
Tom play guitar in a band. / Correct -> Tom plays guitar in a band.
湯姆在樂隊里是彈吉他的。
They was sleeping when she telephoned. / Correct -> They were sleeping when she telephoned.
他打電話過來時,他們都睡著了。
Pronoun Agreement
代詞一致
Pronoun agreement mistakes take place when using a pronoun to replace a proper noun. Often this mistake is a mistake of use of a singular form rather than a plural or vice versa. However, pronoun agreement mistakes can occur in object or possessive pronouns, as well as in subject pronouns.
代詞不一致發生在用代詞來替代專有名詞的情況下。通常是使用了單復數形式的錯誤使用。但是,代詞不一致也會發生在賓語或物主代詞,和主格代名詞上。
Tom works at a company in Hamburg. He loves his job. / Correct -> Tom works at a company in Hamburg. He loves his job.
湯姆在漢堡一家公司工作。他熱愛這份工作。
Andrea and Peter studied Russian at school. He thought they were very difficult.Correct -> Andrea and Peter studied Russian at school. They thought it was very difficult.
(正確)安德里亞和皮特在學校里學習了俄語。他們覺得俄語很難。
Missing Commas After Linking Language
連接語言後漏掉了逗號
When using an introctory phrase as linking language such as a conjunctive adverb or sequencing word, use a comma after the phrase to continue the sentence.
當我們使用介紹性短語,例如連接副詞或表示順序的詞語,通常會在短語後面打上逗號來連接下文。

『叄』 中國留學生說英語最容易犯哪些錯誤
我出國已經十多年了,現在國外定居。
我覺得咱們中國留學生說英語最容易回犯的錯不答是語法錯誤,最容易犯的錯是因為怕犯語法錯誤/怕說錯詞說錯句子而不敢說或者不敢多說。中國人在國外跟老外交流最重要的不是去想怕煩錯誤,而是要多自信點多說點,老外一定會明白你的,不會說不是還有肢體語言么?你說得多了,說得流利了,這才是最重要的,至於語法錯誤那都是小問題,都可以慢慢糾正的(老外說英語一樣也會犯語法錯誤的)。
『肆』 英語寫作中最易犯的10類錯誤,你有幾個
1. 審題不清
如某一年的中考作文要求寫一項最喜歡的課外活動,有些考生將作文的主題定位為「我最喜歡的活動」,偏離了「一項、課外活動」這一主題。依據作文的評分原則,若文章內容不切題,則不管語言如何規范、用詞如何准確,都會被判為零分。
2. 拼寫錯誤
拼寫是考生應該具備的最起碼的基本功,但在考生的作文中卻經常能發現很多拼寫錯誤。有拼寫錯誤的作文肯定會被酌情扣分,而且有大量拼寫錯誤存在的作文不僅體現出語言基本功差,同時也直接影響內容的表達,通常會降低作文的檔次。
3. 名詞單復數問題
誤:My father and my mother is all teacher.
正:My father and my mother are both teachers.
4. 缺少動詞
在漢語中沒有動詞的句子是允許的,但英語中每個完整的句子都必須有動詞來構成,如:「我累了。」這個句子沒有動詞作謂語,而用形容詞,但英語形容詞不能作謂語,一定要寫成:I'm tired.
誤:I happy I can come to Beijing Zoo.
正:I am happy I can come to Beijing Zoo.
誤:The apples cheap. I'll take some.
正:The apples are cheap. I'll take some.
5. 缺少介詞、冠詞等
還有一些考生因為沒有熟練掌握介詞或者冠詞的用法,不了解中英文語言習慣的不同,也會出現明顯的錯誤,造成丟分現象。
誤:Because heavy rain we can't hold the sports meeting.
正:Because of the heavy rain we can't hold the sports meeting.
6. 代詞的誤用
英語中代詞的形式很多,包括主格、賓格、物主代詞、反身代詞等。而漢語中沒有主格和賓格、形容詞性物主代詞和名詞性物主代詞之分。此外漢語中很多時候不用物主代詞,而英語中物主代詞是不可省略的,代詞的誤用是考生最容易發生的錯誤之一。
誤:I mother and I went to the shop to buy a present for I father.
正:My mother and I went to the shop to buy a present for my father.
7. 句子不完整
有的考生因為對句子結構認識模糊,所以出現只寫半句的現象,這也是造成失分的原因之一。
誤:Many students have a hard time passing all the tests to get into college. For example, my friend in high school.
(這段文章的第二句話沒有動詞,不能獨立構成一個句子。這是一個非常常見的錯誤,修改的方法是將兩個句子連接起來。)
正:Many students have a hard time passing all the tests to get into college, for example, my friend in high school.
8. 前後不一致
所謂不一致,包括數的不一致、時態不一致及代詞不一致、主謂不一致等。
誤:When one have knowledge, he can do what he want to do.
(one是單數第三人稱,因而本句的have應改為has ;同理,want應改為wants。本句是典型的主謂不一致。
正:When one has knowledge , he can do what he wants to do.
9. 時態、人稱和數的搭配錯誤
漢語動詞無時態、人稱和數的變化,而對英語來說,這些都至關重要。
誤:When I get to the station the train leave.
正:When I got to the station the train had left.
10. 綜合性錯誤
綜合性錯誤是指單詞的大小寫和標點符號的錯誤等,以及形容詞和副詞的混淆、連詞的誤用等等。這些都是靠考生平時知識的積累,所以考生應該從平時練習出發,每天堅持寫英語日記,多讀適合自己英語水平的原版著作,提高自己的英語素養。
『伍』 求英語大神解釋下這段話(來自於中國人寫作常犯錯誤) 最好根據這段話舉幾個例子
這段話的抄意思大致是:
國人寫作時經常在陳述一句話的主題時首先把目的,地點,原因,例子和條件等描述一下作為介紹因素。然而這樣做就會降低中心思想的重要性(敘述不夠突出明確),使得讀者認為作者思路不清晰,條理不明確。(應該)先把中心思想放在句首說明,把地點,原因等放在後面。
『陸』 英語寫作最易犯的100個錯誤,看看你有多少
一. 名詞
寫作中,學生們常把握不好名詞的數、所有格以及一些集合名詞的用法。
1. He gave me a very good advice yesterday.
句中的要去掉,因為advice是不可數名詞。一些漢語概念為可數的詞在英語中卻是不可數的,表示數量時在其前加a piece of,類似的詞有:news, bread, work, paper, chalk, furniture, information等等。
2. That girl loves reading book.
可數名詞單數不能孤零零地放在句子里,或前面加冠詞,或將其變為復數。此處最好變為books.
3. He went into a book』s shop and bought a dictionary.
一般表示有生命的東西的名詞的所有格用』s,如my mother』s car, 而此處適宜用名詞修飾名詞,改為a book shop.
4. My family is watching TV.
一些集合名詞如看成一個整體,則用單數的謂語動詞,如My family is a happy one; 如強調集合中每個個體的個人行為,則用復數的謂語動詞。此處看電視是個體行為,應把is改為are。類似的詞有:team, class, audience等。
5. I bought some potatos and tomatos at the supermarket.
中學階段以「o」結尾的名詞中有四個詞變復數時要加es,它們是tomato, potato, Negro, hero; 其餘的都加s變為復數。
6.This has nothing to do with their believes.(這和他們的信仰沒關系。)
以f, fe 結尾的詞變為復數時一般去f, fe 加ves,如knife—knives, thief—thieves; 而roof 和belief直接加s變為復數。所以應把believes改為beliefs.
二. 冠詞
7. The boss wants to hire an useful person.
用a還是an,取決於後面單詞的第一個音標,如為母音用an,為輔音用a。useful的第一個音是輔音所以應把an改為a。類似的,我們說a European country.
8.Plane is a machine that can fly.
Plane為可數名詞單數,不能單獨放在句中,應在其前加冠詞或把它變為復數,而本句後有a machine, 因此只能在其前面加a,變為A plane。
9.He played a piano at the party yesterday.
把a 改為the ,因為樂器前用定冠詞。
10.The machine was invented in 1920s.
在in後加the,因為表示年代用in加the再加幾十的復數,如在八十年代in the 80s。
11.Xiao Hong went to school by the bus every day.
去掉the,因為表示交通方式用by直接加交通工具。

以f, fe 結尾的詞變為復數時一般去f, fe 加ves,如knife—knives, thief—thieves; 而roof 和belief直接加s變為復數。所以應把believes改為beliefs.
二. 冠詞
7. The boss wants to hire an useful person.
用a還是an,取決於後面單詞的第一個音標,如為母音用an,為輔音用a。useful的第一個音是輔音所以應把an改為a。類似的,我們說a European country.
8.Plane is a machine that can fly.
Plane為可數名詞單數,不能單獨放在句中,應在其前加冠詞或把它變為復數,而本句後有a machine, 因此只能在其前面加a,變為A plane。
9.He played a piano at the party yesterday.
把a 改為the ,因為樂器前用定冠詞。
10.The machine was invented in 1920s.
在in後加the,因為表示年代用in加the再加幾十的復數,如在八十年代in the 80s。
11.Xiao Hong went to school by the bus every day.
去掉the,因為表示交通方式用by直接加交通工具。
三. 代詞
使用代詞時請注意其單、復數,主、賓格以及形容詞性物主代詞和名詞性物主代詞的用法。
12.He is one of those speakers who make his ideas perfectly clear.
定語從句的先行詞是those speakers,為復數,因此從句中的指示代詞應為復數,應把his改為their。
13. Whom do you think has left the lights on?
放在疑問句特殊疑問詞後的do you think / believe / guess / imagine / suppose等都不參與句子成分,把它們去掉後,疑問詞在句中做主語用主格,做賓語用賓格。本句中去掉do you think後缺的是主語,應把Whom改為Who。
14.The boss pretended not to see John and I.
John和I在句中都做的賓語,應把I 改為me。
15.These books are mine; those in the bag are her.
Her是形容詞性物主代詞,後面應該加名詞books,或把her 改為hers。
四. 數詞
16.There are fourteen hundreds students in our school.
Hundred / thousand / million / score/ dozen等詞前有具體數字時後不加s,前面沒有具體數字時在其後加s 和of,表示大約幾百幾千的概念。如 two hundred students(兩百個學生),hundreds of students(成百上千個學生)。例句中應把hundreds 改為hundred。
17.Their school is twice as larger as our school.
表倍數關系的as---as中間只能用形容詞或副詞的原級。因此把larger改為large.
18.Today』s homework is a five-hundred-words composition.
幾個單詞由連字元連接而組成的復合形容詞中的名詞只能用單數,所以把five-hundred-words改為five-hundred-word.
19.Two third of the students in our school are from America.
英語表達中分數的分子用基數詞,分母用序數詞,分子大於一時分母後要加s,所以就把third 改為thirds.
五. 形容詞和副詞
形容詞和副詞容易被誤用,形容詞和副詞的比較級和最高級也是應注意的重點。
20.The patient appeared nervously when he talked to the doctor.
appear在此是個系動詞,其後應接形容詞作表語。所以把nervously改為nervous.
21.The artist worked hardly to finish his drawings on time.
此句需要一個副詞來修飾,hardly是副詞,但意為「幾乎不」,hard 也可以是副詞,表努力,因此把 hardly 改為hard.
22.This shirt is more cheaper than that one.
More只構成比較級,而不能修飾比較級。因此把more去掉。
23.He is the most successful of the two businessmen.
兩者相比較時,比較級前用定冠詞,三者或三者以上才用most,因此把most改為more.
24.He works less harder than he used to.
表不如… 時用less加上形容詞和副詞的原級,因此把harder改為hard.
25.The book is fairly more interesting than that one.
fairly只能修飾形容詞和副詞的原級,可以修飾比較級的副詞或短語有:much, even, still, far, a lot, a little, a bit, any, no, by far, rather等,因此把fairly改為rather.
26.This is as an interesting a story as the one in the magazine.
as … as中間的詞序是as加上形容詞加上a(n)加上名詞再加上as,因此應改為as interesting a story as the one.
27.The weather here is nicer than Xizang.
同樣的事物才能相比較,weather和Xizang不具有可比性,因此應改為The weather here is nicer than that of Xizang.
29.I would rather take a train than went by bus.
這個片語為would rather do … than do …,因此把went改為go.
30.Is there interesting anything at the meeting?
修飾anything, something, every-thing, nothing的形容詞都要放在它們的後面。
31.I never have seen such a person before.
像never之類的副詞在句中應放在be動詞、助動詞之後,實意動詞之前。因為應改為I have never seen such a person before.
32.The book is worth to be read.
be worth doing 意為值得被做。因此改為The book is worth reading.
33.It is sure that he will succeed.
sure 的主語只能為人,而certain的主語可為人和物。因此把sure改為certain.
34.He is regarded as one of the best alive writers at present.
alive 為表語形容詞,偶爾也做後置定語。因此把alive改為living,或把alive 放在writers後面。
35.I don』t know that he has finished the work yet.
yet 用於否定和疑問句,already用於肯定句。把yet 改為already.
36.He said nearly nothing at the meeting.
nearly 不與否定詞用在同一個句子中,而almost可以。因此把nearly 改為almost.
六. 介詞
37.He usually goes to school by his father』s car.
by加上名詞表示一種交通方式,中間什麼都不加,如by car, by bus, by plane等;如果名詞前有其他的詞修飾,則應除by以外的其他介詞,此處把by改為in.
38.Please wait me at the school gate.
wait為不及物動詞,需加介詞for後才能再跟名詞或代詞做賓語。
39.He has been married with Betty for more than twenty years.
marry不跟 with連用,應把with改為to。
40.I finished the work on time under the help of him.
「在…的幫助下」用with而不用under。
七. 情態動詞
41.He can be at home now because the light in his room is still on.
表特別有把握的肯定判斷時用must,表特別有把握的否定判斷時用can, can表判斷時只用在否定句中。因此把can 改為must。
42.He need come here before the meeting begins.
作情態動詞時need用在否定,疑問和條件句中,不能用於肯定句中,而作實意動詞時則可以。所以應改為:He needs to come here before the meeting begins.
43.He used to get up very early in the morning, and now he is still doing so.
used to 用來表示過去常常做某事而現在不了,所以應把後半句改為:but now he is not doing so.
44.I needn』t come yesterday because all the work had been finished.
由於情態動詞本身不體現時態,所以在談論過去的事情時在情態動詞後加 have done,因此在 needn』t 後加have。
45.You hadn』t better stay up too late because you have to get up early tomorrow.
had better 的否定在 better 後面加not.
八. 動詞的時態
英語的常用時態有十六種,一般根據上下文和時間狀語來確定時態。
46.I will tell her about that when she will come tomorrow.
主句為將來時,其時間、條件、方式和讓步狀語從句中用一般現在時。因此將will come改為comes。
47.The meeting is about to begin in ten minutes.
be about to 一般不與具體的時間狀語連用。因此把 in ten minutes 去掉。
48.The boy opened his eyes for a moment, looking at the captain and then died.
此處look並非伴隨狀語,而是三個並列的謂語動詞,因此把looking 改為looked。
49.I have bought this bike for ten years and I am still using it now.
當句中有for加一段時間作狀語時,謂語動詞必須為延續性動詞,此處把bought改為kept。
50.I haven』t learnt any English before I came here.
我來這兒已經是過去的動作,在此之前發生的事應該用過去完成時。因此應把haven』t改為hadn』t
九. 動詞的語態
及物動詞用在主動語態時要有賓語,因此可以變為被動語態;不及物動詞用於主動語態時不能接賓語,因此無被動語態。
51.The two thieves have been disappeared.
disappear 為不及物動詞,因此不能用於被動語態。所以把 been去掉。
52.The building built now will be our teaching building.
表「現在正在建的」應用被動語態的正在進行時,因此在built 前加being。
53.He is being operated by the famous doctor.
主動語態變為被動語態時,應注意短語動詞的完整性,別忘了介詞或副詞。「給…做手術」應為operate on sb,所以在operated 後加上on。
54.I wonder if the doctor has been sent.
原因同上,應在sent 後加上for。
55.The book written by him is sold well.
說一本書暢銷是指書本身的屬性,因此不用被動語態。本句應改為:The book written by him sells well.
56.This history book is worthy reading.
「值得被做」可以有如下幾種說法:be worth doing; be worthy of being done; be worthy to be done. 因此本句應該為:This history book is worthy to be read.
十. 非謂語動詞
57.We are going to talk about the problem discussing at the last meeting.
此處為分詞作定語,問題應該被討論,所以把discussing改為discussed。
58.The girl dressed herself in red is my sister.
dress為及物動詞,意為「給…穿衣服」,此處為分詞作定語修飾girl, girl應是它的邏輯賓語,因此把herself去掉。
59.Being seriously ill, his class-mates sent him to hospital.
分詞作狀語時,其邏輯主語為這句話的主語,此句應為「因為他病了,他的同學才把他送到醫院去」,因此把前半句改為:He being seriously ill.
60.Having not seen her for many years, we could hardly recognize her.
現在分詞的否定應把not放在現在分詞前面,所以前半句應改為:Not having seen her for many years.
61.Seeing from the space, the earth looks like a ball.
分詞作狀語,其邏輯主語應是這句話的主語,此句中地球應該被看,所以把Seeing 改為Seen。
62.English is easy to learn it.
此句中是不定式作狀語修飾easy, English應該是learn的邏輯賓語,所以把it去掉。
63.I will get somebody repair the recorder for you.
「讓某人做某事」可以有以下幾種表達法:make sb do sth; have sb do sth; get sb to sth. 因此在repair 前加to。
64.She decided to work harder in order to not fall behind the others.
不定式的否定把not放在to前面。因此應改為:She decided to work harder in order not to fall behind the others.
65.It』s better to laugh than crying.
表比較時比較的雙方應為同種結構,或都是名詞或都是不定式。因此有兩種改法:It』s better to laugh than to cry 或 It』s better laughing than crying.
66.It』s no use to send for the doctor.
做某事是沒用的要說成It』s no use doing,所以把to send 改為sending。
67.She practices to play the piano after school every day.
practise 後只跟動名詞作賓語,因此把to play 改為playing。
68.When the teacher came in, he stopped listening to the teacher.
stop doing 為停止做這件事,而stop to do 為停下來正在做的事去做這件事。所以後半句應該為:he stopped to listen to the teacher.
十一. 名詞性從句
69.We are talking about if this plan should be carried out.
If 和whether都可以引導動詞的賓語從句,如果從句做的是介詞賓語,只能用whether引導。所以把if 改為whether。
70.I can not decide if to stay or not.
只有whether才能和不定式搭配使用。因此把if 改為whether。
71.My suggestion is we try for a second time.
表語從句的引導詞如為that,一般不省略。因此在we前加上that。
72.What will the professor say is not known yet.
名詞性從句的語序都是陳述句語序。因此應改為:What the professor will say is not known yet.
十二. 狀語從句
73.I will go unless he invites me.
此句意為「除非他邀請我,否則我不去。」而unless相當於if not, 所以本句應改成:I won』t go unless he invites me。
74.Although he tried, but he still couldn』t keep up with the others.
although 和but 不能同時用在一句話中,去掉任何一個都可以。
75.I won』t stay until he comes back.
含有not…until的句子的謂語動詞應是點動詞,含有until的肯定句的動詞應是延續性動詞,此句有兩種改法:I will stay until he comes back.或I won』t leave until he comes back.
十三. 定語從句
76.An orphan is a child who』s parents are dead.
定語從句中表「…的」引導詞只有whose,所以把who』s 改為whose。
77.This is the very thing which I lost yesterday.
如果先行詞為物且前有the only, the last, the very修飾時,定語從句的引導詞只能用that。
78.This is the car for that I paid a high price.
定語從句的先行詞為物,而且引導詞放在介詞後時,只能用which.
79.She is one of the students who has passed the exam.
定語從句修飾one of 加上復數名詞時,復數名詞是定語從句的先行詞,因此把 has 改為have。
80.This is the place where we visited last year.
定語從句的先行詞用關系代詞還是關系副詞要看定語從句中缺不缺主語或賓語,如缺用關系代詞,如不缺用關系副詞。此句中visit為及物動詞,後無賓語,因此把where 改為which或that。
81.I, who is your friend, can understand you.
定語從句的謂語動詞應與其先行詞保持一致,因此把is 改為am。
82.China is a developing country, that is known to all.
非限定性定語從句的引導詞永遠不會是that,因此把that 改為which 或as。
十四. 主謂一致
83.The poet and writer are invited to give a speech at the meeting.
poet和writer共用一個冠詞,指的是一個人身兼二職,所以謂語動詞應為單數。把are改為is.
84.No one except my parents know it.
主語後加except再加上若干數量的名詞,謂語動詞和主語保持一致。所以把know改為knows。類似的用法的詞或短語有:but, besides, with, together with, along with, as well as等等。
85.Your clothes is on the table over there.
clothes為復數句詞,謂語動詞應為復數。把is改為are。
86.The number of the students in that school are about one thousand.
此名的主語為number而不是students。因此把are 改為is。
87.The class was watching TV when I entered the room.
class作主語時,把它看成一個整體時謂語動詞用單數,看成每一個成員的個體行為時謂語動詞用復數。一般來說,一些具體行為如看電視、吃飯、洗澡等都屬於每一個成員的個體行為。此處把was改為were。
88.The population of our country are increasing slowly now.
population 單獨作主語謂語動詞經常用單數;如果其前有分數或百分數,而且後面又有復數名詞時謂語動詞用復數。如:One fifth of the Chinese population are workers. 此處把are改為is。
十五. 倒裝
89.No sooner he had reached the station than the train left.
no sooner 為否定副詞,放於句首時句子要部分倒裝,因此此句應改為:No sooner had he reached the station than the train left.
90.Here comes he.
here 放於句首時,句子主謂要完全倒裝,但句子主語為代詞時,則主謂不倒裝。此句應改為:Here he comes.
91.A child as he is, he can speak five languages.
用as引導讓步狀語從句,可把形容詞、副詞和不帶冠詞的名詞放於as前。所以前半句改為:Child as he is...
十六. 虛擬語氣
92.She would have come if we invited her.
這是與過去事實相反的虛擬假設,從句應該用過去完成時。所以在 we 後加 had.
93.My suggestion is that we would send a few people to help them.
suggestion 的表語從句也應用虛擬語氣,必須用should加動詞原形,should可以省略。此處去掉would 或把would 改為should。
94.The secretary wishes that she has time to type the letter now.
wish 後的時態應該把真實時態往後推一個時態,所以把has改為had。
95.It』s time that we go to bed.
句式為It』s time sb did sth 所以把 go 改為 went。
96.I would rather you have another try tomorrow.
片語為would rather sb did sth. 所以把have改為had。
十七. there be句式
97.There are a bag and several books on the table.
There be 句式遵循謂語動詞就近原則,a bag為單數,所以把are改為is。
98.There were several people stood at the back of the room.
There be句式的謂語動詞為be動詞,句中其他的動詞應為非謂語動詞。所以把stood改為standing.
十八. 修飾語在句中的位置不當
99.We almost have written twenty compositions this term.
像almost這樣的副詞在句中放在助動詞、be動詞之後,實意動詞之前。因此把almost放在have後面。
100.The girl has beautiful, silky hair who lives high in the mountains.
定語從句應緊跟先行詞,所以改為:The girl, who lives high in the mountains, has beautiful, silky hair.
