英语四级六级作文训练营：改词扩句(第十一期)

本期继续我们的话题，主讲改词。

原句：

Unfortunately, it has also caused some problems never thought of. When we are faced with the dilemma, should we carry on the practice?

改句：

Unfortunately, it has also given rise to some unexpected problems. Confronted with the dilemma, should we carry on the practice?

【解析】细看原句，我们首先在词上进行替换，“cause”比“give rise to”这个词组用的多，属于作文常用词汇，所以在考场上用“give rise to”是个亮点。同理，“faced with”改成“confronted with”，意思也是丝毫未变的。然后，原句中使用了定语从句，当然这也是可以的，但是在这里改成"unexpected"更为简洁清楚。最后，原句中 “when”后面跟的主语和主句一致，所以我们可以直接去掉“when we are”。

下面大家自己试试看吧！

When we depend on other countries to win the election, we think we will pay for it some day.

答案：

Depending on other countries to win the election, we think we will pay for it some day.
