介詞的搭配是SAT語法答題原則中最重要的一項,也是大家在備考中一定要準備的。下面天道小編就從介詞搭配原則中最常見的幾條說起,為大家總結了相關的內容,希望這些能夠幫助正在備考的考生們。
(1) 代詞一定有它要指代的先行詞,找不到先行詞的說明代詞用法錯誤
(2) 代詞與先行詞的數量上必須一致,例如:前面為boys 后面用they而非he
(3) 代詞指代必須符合邏輯,例如:The term “computer killer” may sound exaggerated, but it indeed paralyzed many computers.
此處it 指代term,term使得電腦癱瘓,顯然邏輯意思不正確。
(4) 代詞指代不能同時指代兩個不同意義的詞語,否則為指代歧義
(5) 做主語的代詞,優先指代主語
例如:Because it was robbed last month, the door to the house is locked.
此處it 在從句中做主語,此處它優先指代the door,把the door帶入從句后,發現邏輯出現錯誤,因此指代錯誤,這個句子錯誤。
下面天道專家為大家總結的是經過考生反復實踐之后得出的一些經典的結論,供大家參考。
1、one’s doing結構,如果不是想要表達它的動名詞結構用法,則一般為錯誤的
例如:(1)After several years of rapid growth, the health care company became one of the largest health care providers in the metropolitan area, but proved unable to handle the increase in business, falling months behind in its paying to doctors and hospitals.
分析:后面 in its paying中,paying 想要做的是動詞:pay to doctors and hospitals,在its paying中paying成為了動名詞,是沒有必要的,屬于不簡潔;另外the health care company 是這句話的主語,句子已經很清晰地表述了是the health company fell behind in paying to doctors and hospitals,所以不需要用its來進行強調“是誰fell behind in paying to doctors and hospitals”
因此 its 在此處是多余的
(2)By sucking sap from the young twigs of the hemlock tree, the woolly adelgid retards tree growth, causing the color of needles to change from deep green to grayish green, and the their dropping.
分析:their dropping中,dropping成為了動名詞,使得句子成為cause the color of needles...........and their dropping. 顯然使得句子的意思改變,原句想要表達的是cause the color of needles....and to drop。并且,color 和 dropping不平行。
2、同一句話中相同的代詞優先指代相同的事物
例如:As a baby emerges from the darkness of the womb with a rudimentary sense of vision, it is legally blind if it were an adult with such vision, because it would be rated about 20/500.
分析:出現兩個it,第一個it顯然在指代a baby,根據同一句話中相同的代詞優先指代相同的事物,第二個it也在指代baby,帶入語義后邏輯意思錯誤,不是baby would be rated about 20/500,而是視力。因此此處it使用錯誤
3、代詞不優先指代出現在前面介詞短語或插入語中的名詞
例如:Unlike more established industries, with clearly defined lines of competition, those of the Internet industry are blurred and indistinct, as competing companies one day maybe partners the next.
分析:those此處根據語義想要指代的是lines of competition,但此處lines of competition在兩個逗號之間,視為插入語,為了方便考生,是可以刪除理解的,因此不能成為被指代的內容。
所以大家在備考SAT語法中介詞搭配原則的時候,一定要以最真實的SAT語法真題為基準,這樣才能更加的有條理也能更加的準確。在這個過程中大家就會在掌握知識點的同時對相關的出題方法也有詳細的掌握了。
