环球北美考试院718日。环球托福小编为大家总结了,关于托福写作中一些常见的语法错误,希望对大家有所帮助。

  1.非谓语动词使用不当

  原:Comparing with the money people earns the sense of achievement is more important.

  改:Compared with the money people earns the sense of achievement is more important.

  评:此处是动词compare的现在分词和过去分词使用混淆了。在英语中,动词的现在分词往往表示的是主动的意思,过去分词则表示被动的含义。原句想表达的是“将成就感与钱相比”,“把…与…相比”是明显的被动含义,因此应该使用compared.

  2. 时态混乱

  原:Although I have no work experience when I was a teenager I always dreamed about having a job.

  改:Although I had no work experience when I was a teenager I always dreamed about having a job.

  评:虽然托福写作以议论文为主,为了表示客观性,基本上使用的都是现在时态,但是在举例的时候还是会涉及到一些过去时态,例如上面的句子,切记:主从句时态要保持一致。

  3. 表述累赘

  原:Internet plays an important and indispensible role in peoples life today.

  改:Internet plays an indispensible role in peoples life today.

  评:这个句子一看就知道是作者为了使用高级词汇而犯下的错误。明明已经有Important来表示重要性了,又强行加上了indispensible来表示不可缺少,这种说法只有在中国ZF工作报告中才会出现的,老美是不喜欢的!

  4. 用词不当:用词不当包括词性混淆,同义词错用以及固定搭配错误等。

  词性混淆:

  原句:A large number of people hold the believe that students social activities should be the first priority.

  改:A large number of people hold the belief that students social activities should be the first priority.

  评:这个例子中believe是动词,belief才是名词形式。虽然发音相近,但是用法却完全不同。

  同义词错用:

  原句:Its indeed that people are worrying about the increasing population.

  改:Its true that people are worrying about the increasing population.

  评:虽然二者都表示“真的”,indeed却没有its indeed that…的结构,此处只能用true来表示。

  固定搭配错误:

  原句:As a friend and mentor she drew from humor a beautiful spirit and her faith in the Aboriginal culture to accomplish her work.

  改:As a friend and mentor she drew on humor a beautiful spirit and her faith in the Aboriginal culture to accomplish her work.

  评:draw from: 从……中汲取(经验等) draw on:借鉴(经验等)作者本想使用一个高级的表达法,结果用错了,很可惜。
