本期重點:句子結構混亂
主要問題是一個簡單句出現了兩個或多個謂語,或者用動詞作句子的主語或賓語, 或者句子關系結構混亂等
考點例析
例1:In ordinary speech, a person of culture is the individual
can speak another language - the person who is familiar S5.______
with the arts, music, literature, philosophy, or history.
解析:這個句子出現了兩個位于動詞,在英語中不符合語言規范,從下文可以看出后面部分是修飾individual的定語從句,缺少了引導詞,所以要在can前加who或that。
例2:There are backward towns on the edge of Bombay or
Brasilia, just as though there were on the edge of S3._______
seventeenth-century London or early nineteenth-century Paris.
解析:本句大意是:在孟買或巴西利亞周邊有一些落后的城鎮,正如17世紀的倫敦或19世紀初期周邊也有一些落后城鎮一樣。兩句之間的連詞應該表示比較,“與...相同”,使后一句成為前一句的比較狀語從句。連詞as意為“像...一樣”,前面just強調程度表示“正如,與...相同”。
例3:When the wedding is gathered by the altar, the bride and
groom exchange vows. Fllowing the vows, the couple
exchange rings. Wear the wedding ring on the forth finger of ________
the left hand is an old custom.
解析:本句的主語是動詞短語Wear the wedding ring on the forth finger of the left hand,但動詞本身不能做主語,只有用其相應的動名詞形式才能做主語,所以將wear改為wearing
