托福写作中分词的正确使用方法
分词的巧妙使用能够为托福作文赚得很多印象分,但如果使用不当就会弄巧成拙。那么托福写作中分词怎么用?怎样恰当使用?下面,天道小编为大家介绍一下托福作文中如何慎用托福写作词汇,帮助大家把握几种分词使用的注意事项,提高托福独立写作成绩。
托福写作怎么慎用巧用分词一:
用分词替换定语从句时,分词的逻辑主语就是定语从句前的先行词。
如现在分词:We stood on the bridge connecting the two halves of the building.(... the bridge which connects/connected the twohalves...)前一句中的分词connecting的逻辑主语是the bridge,和后一句中定语从句先行词the bridge, 两者一致。
试比较:The man who Tim is meeting for lunch is from Taiwan.此句的定语从句who Tim ismeeting for lunch不可用分词结构替换,即绝不能改成:The man Tim meeting for lunch is from Taiwan.因为分词meeting的逻辑主语并不是定语从句先行词the man,而是Tim,所以这是完全错误的说法。
又如过去分词:The issue that club members are being asked to vote on at tonight’smeeting is that of a fee increase. 绝不可改成:The issue club members being asked tovote on at tonight’s meeting is that of a fee increase.分词being asked的逻辑主语是clubmembers,并不是定语从句先行词the issue。
托福写作怎么慎用巧用分词二:表因果
表因果,即当分词所指行为或事件引发了主句所指的事件或行为,可以替换定语从句。
比较:A. The snow which fell overnight has turned to ice. (不可改为The snowfalling overnight...)只表先后,不表因果
B. The snow which fell overnight has caused traffic chaos. (可以用分词The snowfalling overnight has caused traffic chaos.)又先后,表因果。
托福写作怎么慎用巧用分词三:用分词时,不表动作先后,表伴随状态
用分词时,不表动作先后,表伴随状态。如: The girl who fell over on the ice broke her arm.(不可改成The girl falling over on the ice broke her arm.)瞬间性行为动词fell over 和broke有先后。 比较:I pulled off sheets which covered the furniture.表状态伴随的动词cover,替换成分词....sheets covering the furniture.
托福写作怎么慎用巧用分词四:情态动词做谓语的定语从句,不可用分词替换
情态动词做谓语的定语从句,不可用分词替换。如:There are a number of people who should beasked.
要写出变化的句式,需在熟练掌握各种句型的同时,做到活学活用融汇贯通,并非易事。希望大家平时认真打好好语法和词汇的基本功,多开口勤动笔,在实践中学习。
