英语写作中出现的想当然错误 有的同学在写作时,常将一些似是而非的东西想当然乱用,不注意语言的准确性和地道性。 1. 我说两个小时的时候,那是包括了吃饭的时间。 误:When I say two hours, which includes the time for eating. 正:When I say two hours, that includes the time for eating. 析:许多同学往往想当然地认为在逗号后面总是用 which 引导定语从句,而不用 that。其实,本句中的 that includes the time for eating 不是定语从句,而是主句(that 用作主句主语),其前的 when I say two hours 为状语从句。 2. 你应该更注意练习你的英语口语。 误:You should pay more attention to practise your spoken English. 正:You should pay more attention to practising your spoken English. 析:有的同学们认为to后总是接动词原形,构成不定式。其实,此句中的to不是不定式符号,而是介词,所以其后的动词要用原形。 3. 几年前,对大多数中国人来说,在家里有一台电脑的想法还是不大现实的。 误:Just a few years ago, the idea to have a computer in one's home seemed very difficult for most Chinese. 正:Just a few years ago, the idea of having a computer in one's home seemed very difficult for most Chinese. 析:许多同学认为表示做某事就用动词不定式,这要根据具体情况来定。idea后面要用of短语说明idea的内容。 4. 尽管他只有十六岁,但是他已经学会用英语和外国人交谈了。 误:Although he is a boy of sixteen, but he has learned to talk with the foreigners in English. 正:Although he is a boy of sixteen, he has learned to talk with the foreigners in English. 正:He is a boy of sixteen, but he has learned to talk with the foreigners in English. 析:许多同学往往认为“虽然…但是”是关联词组。但although是从属连词,而but为并列连词,故不能同时出现在同一句中。类似的还有because和so,也不能连用。 5. 他迟到的原因是因为他没赶上早班车。 误:The reason why he was late is because he didn’t catch the early bus. 正:The reason why he was late is that he didn’t catch the early bus. 析:许多同学认为“因为”表原因就用because,但在此句The reason why…is that中that引导表语从句,无实际意义。 6. 他说他将尽最大努力学好英语。 误:He said he would do what he could learn English well. 正:He said he would do what he could to learn English well. 正:He said he would do / try his best to learn English well. 析:情态动词后只能跟动词原形。于是有的同学就出现了误句。实际上,此句中“学好英语”是“尽最大努力”的目的状语,应该用不定式。 |
