托福写作中常见的23个失分点

2015-02-05来源:互联网

  1.结构不平行

  例:I was able to raise my TOEFL score by studying hard and I read lots ofbooks.当使用连词将一系列的单词联接起来的时候,应当使用词性相同或同一类型的短语。

  2.不知所云

  例:Many companies began using computers mouth.

  3.段落过长,不分段,主语与动词一致问题

  She are a good friend of mine that I has known for a longtime.主语和动词在数方面不一致。

  4.句子别扭

  名师讲解:托福写作中常见的23个失分点

  We heated the soup in the microwave for too long and the shape of thecontainer changed.措辞过长或不清。换言之,句子显得滑稽可笑。

  5.不要使用缩写

  在正式的写作中不要使用缩写形式(can"t,don"t,it"s,we"ll,they"ve等等),而应当使用单词的完整形式(cannot,donot,it is,we will,they have等等)。

  6.关联词语重复

  Since I want to go to a good school,therefore I am trying to raise my testscores.不能在该句的主要主语和主要动词前使用连词。

  7.句子不完整

  Many students have a hard time passing all the tests to get into college.For example, my friend in highschool.句子没有主要主语或主要动词,因为其实它应是一个从句。这是一个非常常见的错误,修改的方法是将两个句子连接起来。

  8.不要使用get When I got home, I got tired, so I got a book and got intobed.

  Get太不正式,意思也过于含糊,不适合用在正式的场合。应将get改为一个更加具体的单词,如become,receive,find,achieve,等等。

  9.书写难以辨认,信息不正确

  I would like to study in America because all modern technology originatedthere.传的信息不正确,或者让人听起来觉得可能不正确(如果确实是正确的,应当解释为什么这样,因为读者不认为是正确的)。上述例句中,all的意思是百分之百;我们不能绝对地说每一件新东西都是从美国诞生的。为保险起见,应当使用many或most.非英语单词Computersare very helpful and advantageable.尽管看起来象个单词,其实不是,至少不是个英文单词。使用这个单词的另一种形式。

  10.介词多余

  I would like to discuss about something important that you mentioned aboutto me during yesterday. We went to downtown yesterday to buy a watch. When Ifirst came to the US,I did not have a lot of friends in here. In class, myclassmate never mentioned about herhusband.在表示这种意思时此单词不能与介词连用。这种情况常见于downtown,home,there,here等词。这些词语在英语中是副词而非名词,因而不能在它们前面添加介词。

  11.跑题或不相关

  There are many reasons to buy a car, preferably a nice car.这个意思与文章的主题无关。

  12.陈词滥调

  It is okay for children to failsometimes.所表达的意思很普通大多数人都已经知道到了,因而就没有必要再说出来。

  13.标点问题

  I love animals. And I like to help them. Because they are helpless. So Iwant to become a vet.这是一个非常普遍的问题!许多学生在句子中使用了太多的句号,尤其是当他们用手写的时候。

  14.重复冗余

  Personally,I believe what the newspaper prints.一种意思的表述不止一次,或者某个词语不必要。

  15.单数/复数

  Many year ago, dinosaur roamed theEarths.单词需要从单数变为复数,或者由复数变成单数。单数可数名词不能单独使用,应该将其变为复数形式或者加上限定词(a,the,my,his,her,Gary"s,no,any,1,3,50,most等等)。

  16.拼写错误,主语、动词或宾语有问题

  I want to buy something for my mother that she will like it. There was aterrible accident happen yesterday.句子的基本结构有问题,缺少主语、动词或宾语,或者这些成分重复。

  17.语气与文章不符

  I was kind of mad at the guy who vociferated angry words at me. I haveheard many wonderful things about such cosmopolitan cities asParis,London,Tokyo, and Hong Kong and I would love to visit these cities tocheck them out.语气与文章其他部分不相符, 可能是过于正式或者太不正式。

  18.代词指代不明

  If people do not speak the same language, it has a greater chance ofmiscommunication. I intend to complete my studies in the United States becausethey have good programs there.代词所指代的指示词(介词所代替的名词)不清楚。

  19.过于笼统

  We should use our resources on Earth because the Earth is gettingworse.句子或它所表达的意思过于笼统,不能提供多少信息。

  20.动词时态错误

  Yesterday I will go to the store because tomorrow I needed somefood.动词时态不正确。检查一下是应该用现在时、过去时、将来时还是完成时等等。

  21.选词不恰当

  I was late getting home because I lost myway.在这种情况下不应该使用该词。可选择更好的词语或者所使用的词语与文章的总体语气不符。

  22.单词形式不当

  I want to creation a great web site so that I can becomingwealth.所使用的单词的形式不正确。检查一下应该使用该词的名词、形容词或副词形式的哪一种。

  23.用词错误

  Even I don‘t speak Spanish, I was able to find a bathroom in the departmentstore. I gained a lot of pounds during vacation.用词错误或在此种情况下该词不是最佳用词。
