A. 老是好写些中文式英语,怎么改正英语写作时最基本的语法规则(如介词后接动名词)有哪些
要记得分析句子结构,分得清主谓宾定状补,记住英文的习惯用法,还有救是要记得几个结构,主谓结构,动宾结构,系表结构,介宾结构。弄清楚哪及物不及物动词。弄清哪些词后面加不定式,哪些加动名词。语法要全部过关
B. 写作文用到的英语动词
be动词,look,see ,hear等感观动词.get,catch,help,think,do,know,dare,satisfied……建议你看看语法动词那一章节,有很多动内词.你的课文也行容,里面很多动词呀
C. 英语论文写作要如何避免动词和主词搭配错误
英语学术论文写作是很多大学生(特别是海外学生)需要掌握的一个技能,一篇文笔简洁优雅的论文对于提高被采纳发表的成功率会有很大帮助。但目前的情况是,很多人并没有受过专门的学术论文写作训练,在写论文时经常会出现各种各样的语言问题。今天的文章主要谈一谈英文学术论文写作中的常见错误,希望对你有所帮助。
总体来说,学术论文写作跟其他类型的英文写作一样,都要遵循清晰简洁的原则,这一原则主要有以下体现:
1.主动语态与被动语态
英文中的主动语态特点是简洁有力,动作发出者明确,而被动语态特点是较为冗长且有时候看不出动作的发出者是谁(比如Measures should be taken to address this issue. 从这个句子里面我们无法确定应该是谁采取行动)。在学术论文中,很多地方都要明确指出动作的发出主体(比如实验是谁操作的,数据是谁测量的),且语言要尽可能简洁。因此,学术论文中应该多使用主动语态。
类似下面的句子:
(1) Consideration of whether countries work well on cross-border issues such as immigration was undertaken by Raul (2007).
(2) Identification of poor food, bad housing, inadequate hygiene, and large families as the major causes of poverty was made by Jones (2005).
应该改为:
(1) Raul (2007) consideredwhether or not countries work well on cross-border issues such as immigration.
(2) Jones (2005)identifiedpoor food, bad housing, inadequate hygiene, and large families as the major causes of poverty.
那么有没有需要使用被动语态的情况呢?
有。当我们无法明确动作的发出者,或者需要强调动作本身而不是强调动作发出者的时候,就可以使用被动语态。比如:
(1) Up to 90% of the energy in light bulbs is wasted in the form of heat.
(2) The first edition of Freud’s earliest writings on dreams was published in 1899.
第一个句子里面waste这个动作的发出者无法明确(也没必要明确),第二个句子里面谁出版了Freud的作品并不重要,因此也没有必要使用主动语态来说明出版商是谁。
2.比较句
我们知道,在英语比较句中有时候可以省略被比较主体后面的动词,比如:
On average, men are taller than women are.
可以省略为:
On average, men are taller than women.
但这种省略有时候会造成歧义,举个例子:
Women prefer friendly doctors more than men do.
如果我们将do省略的话,会变成:
Women prefer friendly doctors more than men.
此时句子会产生歧义,因为它可以有两种不同的理解:
Women prefer friendly doctors more than men prefer friendly doctors. 女人比男人更喜欢友善的医生。
Women prefer friendly doctors more than they prefer men. 比起喜欢男人,女人更喜欢友善的医生。
为了避免歧义,我们应该保持比较句型形式上的完整。类似这样的句子:
(1) The finance department focuses on profits more than the human resources department.
(2) Country A funds high-tech innovation more than Country B.
应该改为:
(1) The finance department focuses on profits more than the human resources department does.
(2) Country A funds high-tech innovation more than Country B does.
3.使用动词而不是名词
英语中动词通常要比名词要简洁,因为名词本身看不出动作,经常需要额外的动词去修饰它。比如要表达“做出贡献”,使用名词形式我们要说make contributions to,但如果用动词只需要说contribute,在论文写作中能使用动词的场合尽量使用动词,以保持文章的简洁。类似下面这样的句子:
(1) Enumeration of three reasons why the English language has become so important was made by Thompson (2006).
( 2) Discussion of the challenges and strategies for facilitation and promotion of ERP was performed by Smith (2007).
需要改为:
(1) Thompson (2006) enumeratedthree reasons why the English language has become so important.
(2) Smith (2007) discussedthe challenges and strategies forfacilitatingand promotingERP.
4.减少there be句型以及it的使用
There be句型可能是中国学生最熟悉的句型之一,但大部分there be句型都不够简洁,可以使用其他形式来替换。比如:
There is a necessity for a semi-structured approach to be chosen.
可以改为更加简洁的版本:
A semi-structured approach must be chosen.
又比如:
There is a need for implementation of the policy on a larger scale by the president of the association.
可以改为:
The association president must implement the policy on a larger scale.
对于形式主语it,我们也可以进行精简,比如:
(1) It is essential that the model be revised.
(2) It was important for the government to intervene.
可以改为:
(1) The model must be revised.
(2) The government must intervene.
5.Misplaced modifiers
Misplaced modifiers是指将修饰语放在错误的地方,从而产生歧义的现象。举个例子:
I was told that I would be awarded the scholarship by my professor.
这句话因为by my professor这一修饰语放置不当而产生了歧义。它可以理解为“我被我的教授告知我会获得奖学金”,也可以理解为“我被告知我的教授会授予我奖学金”。避免歧义的方法是调整by my professor的位置,比如:
I was told by my professor that I would be awarded the scholarship.
类似的例子还有:
A team led by Dr. Craig Smith from the University of Hawaii at Manoa found the crabs using a remotely operated submersible.
这句话同样有歧义,因为using a remotely operated submersible可以理解为螃蟹发出的动作,也可以理解为研究团队发出的动作。为了避免歧义,句子可以改为:
A team led by Dr. Craig Smith from the University of Hawaii at Manoa used a remotely operated submersible to find the crabs.
6.慎用代名词
我们有时候会用代名词来指代前面提到的名词或是句子成分,但它有个缺点:读者有时候很难确定代名词究竟指代哪一部分。学术论文写作要求清晰严谨,因此使用代名词时一定要谨慎,必要时可以对代名词进行替换。比如:
A case study approach was chosen; thisallowed a closer observation of a single specimen.
句子中this可能指代a case study approach,也可能指代a case study approach was chosen这一整句话,为了使句意清晰,我们可以将句子改为:
A case study approach was chosen to allow a closer observation of a single specimen.
又比如:
X substantially alters Y. Thissuggests that Y can be modified using the proposed model.
句子可以改为更清晰的版本:
X substantially alters Y. This findingsuggests that Y can be modified using the proposed model.
7.避免使用可能会造成性别歧视的代名词
在使用he, she, his, her, him这类代名词时,应避免出现只偏袒一方情况,举个例子:
When a politician campaigns for office, hemust spend considerable funds to compete with his opponents.
这里代名词只提及到了男性一方,为了避免出现性别歧视,我们可以使用名词和代词的复数形式:
When politicians campaign for office, theymust spend considerable funds to compete with theiropponents.
或者将句子中的代名词去掉:
A politician whocampaigns for office must spend considerable funds to compete with opponents.
同时,在使用一些名词的时候也要注意性别问题,比如要表达“人类”,用humankind会比用mankind好一点,因为mankind带有一定的性别色彩,一些人会质疑为什么只有mankind而没有womankind,而使用humankind会显得公平很多。
希望能帮助到你,望采纳!
D. 关于英语写作(句子的语法)
句子的开头就是主语吧,主语当然不能用动词,只能用名词性质的单词或者短语,这不单单是写作里的语法,而是渗透在英语各个方面中的语法。其实个人认为,学好语法最大的优势就是英语写作,帮助作文整体的严密工整,所以如果要学好语法的话,还是建议买一本好的语法书,每天多看多练,还有就是模仿优秀英语作文中的语句和写作技巧,会有很大帮助的哦~
E. 英语问题 写作时first和firstly后面的句子有什么不同吗动词要注意什麽之类的
firstly可以单独使用表示首先 就等于at first
first加逗号与后面句子隔开表示第一点 一般写作时为避版免单权调 不这样使用
另外在写作中副词的作用 非常重要 应多进行积累好的副词 如occasionally等等 并应用于写作中
F. 英语写作中的动词名词化短语
所谓复用“名词短语”代替“动制词”,其实可以看成是“同义词、近义词”。
例:
1、借钱:
Borrow sb's money = take a loan from sb.
= take a credit from sb.
2、感谢:
Thank sb.= Show gratefulness to sb.
= express appreciation to sb.
= express gratitude to sb.
3、拒绝:
Refuse sb.= give sb. a refusal.
= give sb. a denial.
= say no to sb.
= reply sb. in negative.
很多很多的呀。
建议你买一本英语同义词典(dictionary of synonym)
G. 写作的动词ing形式
composing 或者writing
composing 指写一篇作文、信函、讲稿,诗歌,writing 写作的目的可以说论文,也可以是小说,散文,各式各样的文章。
H. 如何在英语写作中做到用词生动,简洁,多样,具
1. 如何做到用词生动
中国同学写作喜欢滥用两个词:is 和make。make sb do sth, 这个结构广泛收到中国学生们的欢迎。
这两个词语的问题在于是静态的, there be 句型也是如此。只有尽可能在英语表达中选用短小有力的动词,比如action verb,才能使文章更有活力。
要尽量避免be/make的系动词形式表达,尽可能选择表示强有力的行为动词,写出生动、简洁、有力、耐读和连贯的文章。
例如,如果你想表达“让某事变得更快”,在考场的紧张心情下可能直接会写出“make it faster”,为了让这个词组更生动地表达,我们可以用动词accelerate(v.加速)来取代make词组。Accelerate就是一个“行为动词”。
举例
1.
His criminal record made him unable to be admitted to the university.
His criminal record disqualified him from being admitted to the university.
原句中用了make sb unable to…这个词组,我们可以用disqualify(使失去资格)一词来取代。
2.
Ecological imbalances is the biggest threat to the survival of wild animals and plants.
Ecological imbalances threaten the survival of wild animals and plants, even human beings.
要表达“某事物是一种威胁”,很多学生会直觉地用汉英直接翻译的思维写出sth is a threat to…, 然而,threat其实可以直接做动词,它使得修改后的句子更加的生动。
在日常写作训练中,我们需要摆脱习惯性思维的束缚,直接以英语来思维和表达,而不是先用汉语思维,再翻译成英语。

2. 如何做到用词简洁
善用分词短语
例如
他猛然倒在一把椅子上,椅子被压得吱吱作响。
He crashed down on a chair which proced a protesting sound.
He crashed down on a protesting chair.
有的定语从句可以直接简化为一个分词形式作为定语,修饰名词成分。
善用形容词短语
例如
当我的工作很忙时,不得不经常搬家,我女儿只得转学。
My daughter had to change schools when my work schele was busy and this made it necessary for me to move houses.
My daughter had to change schools when my busy schele made it necessary for me to move houses.
某些单独的形容词就表示复杂的意思
例如
这份杂志内容有趣,文字浅显,立即受到大家的喜欢。
The magazine is immediately popular as its content is interesting and its language is easy.
The magazine has gained immediate popularity at once as it is interesting and easy.
路面结冰,又很滑,加上能见度很低,因为导致了这场交通事故。
The road was frozen and slippery and one could hardly see clearly, so the road accident was caused.
Icy road and poor visibility led to the accident.
运用单个副词
例如
然而,近年来关于该问题的警告引起了公众的广泛关注,这是可以理解的。
Nevertheless, recent alarms about this problem caused wide public concern. This is understandable.
à Nevertheless, recent alarms about this problem have understandably caused wide public concern.
运用抽象名词
例如
他每天花三小时看体育节目。他把心思都放在体育上,这对他的学习是妨碍的。
He spends nearly 3 hours on watching sports events. The fact that he was completely absorbed in sport interfered with his studies.
He spends nearly 3 hours on watching sports events. His complete absorptioninterfered with his studies.
他有才能,人品好,办事效率高,他肯定会提升的。
He is capable, easygoing and works efficiently. He will surely be promoted.
His aptitude, personality and efficiency guarantee his promotion.
运用介词短语
例如
医生给了她一些治疗感冒的药。
The doctor have her some medicine for her cold.
For 就是治疗的意思,写成give her some medicine for curing her cold 就是不了解介词的意思。
英语中at, with, over, out of 等这些介词在表示感情列致使行为时,往往替代动词。如:I am surprised at the news. / He is pleased with your progress.等
3. 如何做到用词多样
“Never use the same word or write the same thing twice in a sentence unless you are repeating intentionally for emphasis or for clarity.”
英语中的意思接近,场合接近的同义词种类非常多,但是汉语的同义词主要集中在形容词上。
中文是意合型语言,不是靠连词,代词等语言手段,而主要是靠句子内在的意思来连接的。这就给句子的表达提出了更高的要求。也就是说句子的意思必须清楚明了,歧视性和模糊性要低,句子才能行文通畅。英语则可以大量变换用词,不会引起歧义。
丰富的词汇变换手段包括——
同义词
例如
I first heard this tale shortly after the Cultural Revolution (1966-1976). Later someone told me that the story appeared in a travel magazine.
同义词还可以扩展到结构
例如
One great ignorance about the distant past also makes it difficult to identify great men. For example, no one knows who invented the wheel or discovered he proctive use of fire. Little is known about the invention of writing and of numbers.
近义词
近义词和同义词只是程度上有差异而已。有些词孤立起来看完全没有联系。但是在上下文里指的是同一间事。它们就构成了同义关系。
例如
The Second World War in some ways gave birth to less novelty and genius than the First. It was, of course, a greater cataclysm, fought over a wider area, and altered the social and political contour of the world at least as radically as its predecessor.
笼统词
指的是那些范围更大,意思更含糊的词,比如thing, task等。
例如
Perhaps is will suffice to mention the nuclear bomb. Imagine the effect on a reasonably advanced technological society, one that still does not possess the bomb, of making it aware of the possibility, of supplying sufficient details to enable the thingto be constructed.
4 如何做到用词具体
用词具体忌笼统是使文章具体生动的又一方法。
例如
She had straight A’s and scholarship offers from some of the most prestigious universities in the country.
She had straight A’s and scholarship offers from some of Stanford and Cornell.
在第二句话中,“prestigious universities”被具体地改为“斯坦福”与“康耐尔”
在写作时,要有意识的注意具体词的用法,表示人可以具体地用称谓来表达,如babysitter, colonel, teacher, doctor等;表达“说”,除了“say”或者“speak”还有很多表达方式,如exclaim (大声说)、 blurt (脱口而出)、stammer (结结巴巴说)等。
I. 英语中有的动词作名词是不需要加ing的,那有哪些呢我写作文有时都不敢用如help,study等
应该说明的是,动复词作名词 与动名制词是两个完全不同的概念。动名词通常用在各类的从句里。
但动词作名词的概念就不一样了,你所问的只涉及单词而不是从句。
动词作名词需不需要加ing? 有的要加,有的不需加。有没有规律技巧,没有。只能靠长期使用中的积累。
需要加ing的几个例子: begin beginning (开始), belong belonging (属于/属于物)
不需加ing的几个例子: take a (look), (look) at that, have a nice (travel), (travel) to somewhere.
希望对你有帮助。
J. 求助英语动词分词作定语的问题,比如翻译”所观察到事实“,英语写作observed fact好,还是fact observed
a retired teacher 一位退休的教师 和 A teacher retired 有个教师退休了。 你觉得哪个好?
看语境,自己选择就是了。
