雅思写作常犯的十大典型错误分析

2014-04-29来源:互联网

  4、 悬垂修饰语(Dangling Modifiers)

  所谓悬垂修饰语是指句首的短语与后面句子的逻辑关系混乱不清。例如:

  At the age of ten, my grandfather died. 这句中“at the age of ten”只点出十岁时,但没有说明“ 谁”十岁时。按一般推理不可能是my grandfather,如果我们把这个悬垂修饰语改明确一点,全句就不那么费解了。

  改为:

  When I was ten, my grandfather died。

  例1. To do well in college, good grades are essential。

  剖析:句中不定式短语 “to do well in college” 的逻辑主语不清楚。

  改为:

  To do well in college, a student needs good grades。

  5、词性误用(Misuse of Parts of Speech)

  “词性误用”常表现为:介词当动词用;形容词当副词用;名词当动词用等。

  例1. None can negative the importance of money。

  剖析:negative 系形容词,误作动词。

  改为:

  None can deny the importance of money。

  6、指代不清(Ambiguous Reference of Pronouns)

  指代不清主要讲的是代词与被指代的人或物关系不清,或者先后所用的代词不一致。试看下面这一句:

  Mary was friendly to my sister because she wanted her to be her bridesmaid。

  (玛丽和我姐姐很要好,因为她要她做她的伴娘。)读完上面这一句话,读者无法明确地判断两位姑娘中谁将结婚,谁将当伴娘。如果我们把易于引起误解的代词的所指对象加以明确,意思就一目了然了。这个句子可改为:

  Mary was friendly to my sister because she wanted my sister to be her bridesmaid。

  例1. And we can also know the society by serving it yourself。

  剖析:句中人称代词we 和反身代词yourself指代不一致。

  改为:

  We can also know society by serving it ourselves。
