雅思写作备考常见错误为大家讲解,想要取得雅思写作高分,考生怎能不知这些错误。赶紧来看看到底有哪些吧,好让自己的备考中有所准备,尽力去避免。
1. 概念的错误
在写作中,有类词语表面上看似乎是对的,但实际上却没有表达出你想要表达的意思,有时恰恰适得其反。用这类词语写成的英语句子常常引起误解。
① (误) When we go into society after graduation, we will encounter many difficulties.
(正)When we start to work after graduation, we will encounter many difficulties.
“go into society”没有汉语“进入社会”的含义。在西方,它是指一个人到一定的年龄可以开始社会交往,如结交异性朋友,进入某些社交或公共场所等。而汉语“进入社会”一般指学生中学或大学毕业后参加工作。
② (误)Left alone in the jungle at night ,she felt very dangerous.
(正)Left alone in the jungle at night, she felt that she was in great danger.
“dangerous”与作者要表达的意思完全相反。说某人dangerous,实际上是说他在某一方面对某人构成危胁,而不是处于危险的境地。这个词用错,意思就完全变了。原意是“她”感到处于危险中。
2、搭配不当
用词搭配是我国学生学英语最感棘手的地方,在雅思写作中,这种错误也是经常出现的,所以希望大家引起重视,因为中文里的某些词语在不同的语境里,英语有不同的说法,而这些说法是约定俗成的, 完全是习惯用法所致,我们稍有不慎,便会犯错。
现举一些考生在考试中常犯的错误:
① (误)At college, we should learn as much knowledge as possible so t hat we can be well prepared for our future career.
(正)At college, we should acquire as much knowledge as possible so t hat we can be well prepared for our future career.
“学习知识”是学生写作时经常用到的词组,但不少学生都写成learn knowledge,实际上knowledge是不能与learn搭配的,只能与acquire,obtain,absorb,accumulate,develop,advance,gain,broaden,enlarge,impart,derive,deepen, brush up, digest等词搭配使用。
② (误)In July, they will take part in the final term examinations.
(正)In July, they will take t he final term examinations.
“examination”或“test”不能与“take part in”搭配使用,但可以和attend, have, sit for, conduct, enter for, get through, pass, fail等词语用在一起。
3、用词累赘
由于对某些词和词组的意思缺乏真正的理解或把要表达的意思先用中文想好,然后逐字翻译成英语,造成累赘。
例如:
① (误)In my opinion, I think the production and sale of fake commodities should be banned.
(正)I think the production and sale of fake commodities should be banned.
in my opinion与I think意思完全相同,可以删去其中的一个。
② (误)Scientists are trying to find a solution to solve the problem of energy shortage.
(正)Scientist s are trying to find a solution to the problem of energy shortage.
一个词与它的派生词一起出现,造成意思重复,给人以累赘的感觉,改正后的句子变得简洁多了。
③ (误)Waste gas is the main cause which leads to air pollution.
(正)Waste gas is the main cause of air pollution.
cause和lead to都表原因,同时使用造成意思重复。
4、逗号连接错误
中国学生在英语写作中常常单独使用逗号而不用句号、分号、冒号或连结词来连接两个或几个独立的分句。例如:
① (误)The weather was fine, we decided to climb the mountain.
(正)As the weather was fine, we decided to climb the mountain.
② (误)The prospects are bright, the road has twists and turns.
(正)While the prospects are bright, the road has twists and turns.
上面两个标有误的句子在语法上没有错误,它错就错在逗号的使用不当。错误的根源是学生受汉语写作习惯的影响,把汉语逗号的作用等同于英语逗号的作用。在汉语中,逗号可以单独使用在并列分句之间。
(1) 变成两个简单句:
The wind was blowing very hard. They couldn’t go boating on t he lake.
(2) 变成并列句,用逗号加并列连接:
The wind was blowing very hard they couldn’t go boating on the lake.
(3) 变成并列句,用分号连接:
The wind was blowing very hard; couldn’t go boating on the lake.
(4) 变成并列句,用分号加连接性副连接:
The wind was blowing very hard ,therefore, they couldn’t go boating on lake.
(5)变成并列句,有时也可以用冒接,这时第二个分句解释说明第一个分句
They couldn’t go boating on the lake; the wind was blowing very hard.
(6)变成复合句:
As the wind was blowing very hard they couldn’t go boating on the lake.
(7) 用独立主格结构改写句子:
The wind blowing very hard, they couldn’t go boating on the lake.
5、冠词的使用
原文:Nowadays, a increasing number of people...
诊断:元音单词increasing前的不定冠词应用an而不是a。这样的错误在口语中不容易犯,但写到纸上时就容易忽视。所以说,写完的作文不仅要重看,更要“重读”,才能借助语感揪出这样的小错误。
修改:Nowadays, an increasing number of people...
原文:However, whether the government... on arts is controversial issue.
诊断:issue是可数名词,但这里既没有用冠词又不是复数,显然是有问题的。
修改:However, whether the government... on arts is a controversial issue.
6、名词单复数
原文:However, whether the government should allocate fund to public services ...
诊断:fund表示政府拨款的“资金”,此处应该使用复数,表示多笔拨款。
修改:However,whether the government should allocate funds to public services ...
原文:In my view, public service are vital to our life, but...
诊断:句子主语public service与谓语are不一致,主语是单数,而谓语是复数用法。此处public services泛指“公共服务”,应用复数。
修改:In my view, public services are vitalto our life, but...
7、动词词组用法
原文:Nowadays, increasing number of people concerned about the enhancement of public services.
诊断:动词词组be concernedabout...表示“对....关注”。但这句话中使用时漏掉了be动词,导致整个句子语法错误。
修改:Nowadays, increasing number of people are concerned about the enhancement of public services.
注:中括号内单词表示已在原文中修改的错误。下同。
8、近似用法混淆
原文:However, whether the government should allocate fund to public services other than waste...
诊断:考生原本想用的应该是rather than,表示“而不是”,却错误地写成了形式类似的other than,表示“除了……之外”,整句话的意思就改变了。
修改:However,whether the government should allocate fund to public services rather than waste...
9、非谓语动词用法
原文:However, whether... to public services than waste money on arts is...
诊断:ratherthan是介词,后面可接名词或动名词形式,但此处考生错误地接了动词原形。
修改:However,whether... to public services than wasting money on arts is...
原文:In my view... but spending money on arts is definitely not just waste money.
诊断:考生想表达“在艺术上投资绝不仅仅是浪费金钱”,但却错误地用动词原形waste作表语,暴露了基本功不扎实的问题
修改:In myview... but spending money on arts is definitely not just wasting money.
除了动名词之外,其他几种非谓语动词——动词不定式、现在分词、过去分词等,也是写作中的重头戏。如果用得好自然锦上添花,但这些往往也是最容易出错的部分。
