有很多考生,在做了大量的准备后,信心满满的上了考场,原本以为可以考取好成绩,却没想到,写作上还是不行,那么托福考试写作中,有哪些常犯错误需要避免呢?美世教育为你盘点。
托福写作常犯错误之词性误用
词性误用(Misuse of Parts of Speech)指的是考生在写作的过程中,不考虑单词的词性和词法功能,单纯地从词义对照的角度出发来运用单词,从而造成病句。
例如:I against these rules because they are not so good.
剖析:本句是典型的词性误用,against 是一个介词。需要与be 动词一起构成谓语成分。
改为: I am against these rules because they are useless.
托福写作常犯错误之不一致
不一致(Disagreements)除了主谓不一致之外,还包括数的不一致、时态不一致及代词不一致等等。
例如: Watching TV too much are bad for our eyes.
看电视太久会对我们的视力造成伤害。
剖析:不定式、v-ing形式充当句子主语时,谓语动词用单数形式。本句是典型的主谓不一致。同学们在考场上难免紧张,很容易无意识地犯下这种不该犯的错误。建议同学们留出10分钟左右的时间,逐句检查。>>托福写作攻略详情
改为:Watching TV too much is bad for our eyes.
托福写作常犯错误之不间断句子
不间断句子(Run-on Sentences)指的到底是什么呢?
例如:There are many ways we get to know the outside world.
剖析:这个句子包含了两层完整的意思:“There are many ways。” 以及“We get to know the outside world.”但简单地把它们连在一起就不太妥当了。
改为:There are many ways for us to learn about the outside world. 或:There are many ways through which we can become acquainted with the outside world.
托福写作常犯错误之悬垂修饰语
悬垂修饰语(Dangling Modifiers)是指句首的短语与后面句子的逻辑关系混乱不清。
例如:To help raise people’s living standards, basic healthcare is a necessity.
剖析:句中不定式短语 “To help raise people’s living standards” 的逻辑主语不清楚。
改为:To help raise people's living standards, the government should provide basic healthcare.
托福写作常犯错误之句子不完整
写作和口语有一个极大的不同之处,就是在口语当中,说话人即使表达不完整,听者也能通过上下文语境、手势、表情等,理解对方的意思。可是写作却不同,句子结构的不完整(Sentence Fragments)会令意思表达不清,可能使读者二丈和尚摸不着头脑。
例如:There are many ways to learn English. For example by reading English novels, listening to English radio, taking courses and so on.
剖析:后半部分“For example ……and so on .”不是一个完整的句子,仅为一些不连贯的词语,不能独立成句。
改为:There are many ways to learn English, for example by reading English novels, listening to English radio or taking courses.
