1. 句型分析
0 j5 i* {% x: }; @ 英语的句型包括以下几种,简单句、复合句、并列句、并列复合句等。在新托福写作中,一般使用复合句,辅以并列句和并列复合句,当然肯定要有简单句,做到长短句相结合。下面摘抄几个句子给大家认识并分析一下复合句和并列复合句。6 X) l( W" y+ Q# A

朗阁海外考试研究中心分析认为,考生写的句子容易出现三个问题:一是使用破碎句,二是使用接连句,三是句子连接不正确。

所谓破碎句,就是句子不完整,通常是没有谓语(或者说谓语是动词的非谓语形式,如分词),或者是从句单独成句。

/ Y! }' l' d7 @ 通常情况下,考生会马上对这句话进行翻译,基本不会动句子结构。但是以人作为主语的英语句子总是不能够很吸引人,所以这个句子如果稍微做下修改,以后面的宾语“主意”做主语,这个句子会发生一些变化。 |
