本期重點:句子結構不完整
比較復雜的復合句最容易出現此類錯誤,因為句子較長,缺少了某個成分,如主語、謂語、賓語、連詞等等。
考點例析:
例1: If his aim is inaccurate and he scores a goal, enjoys S3.____the hunter’s triumph of killing his prey.
解析:這是由一個條件狀語從句引導的復合句。但主句只有謂語動詞enjoys,缺少主語,因此要步上主語。根據從句的his aim可推斷應該加上主語he。
例2:Nuclear physicists who interested in the structure of 5._________atoms cannot observe protons, electrons and neutrons directly.
解析:如果將who后面的部分作定語從句,那么它絕少謂語,故將who去掉,此時分詞短語interested in直接作定語修飾前面的physicists。或在who后加are,補全定語從句。
例3:This alliance guarantees that all leprosy patients, even they S6.______are poor, have a right to the most modern treatment.
解析:even是副詞,后面不能直接跟句子,根據句子的意思,應該在even后加if或though。
