有人开玩笑说，外国人眼中的句子分为三个层次，最差的是主动句，最好的是被动句、倒装句等。，而nominalization(名词化)的句子，这是最学术、最适合写论文的句子。所以面对这样的差异，我们应该重新审视托福写作中的思维方式，这样才不会“画蛇添足”。下面由新航道的沈阳托福培训小编为您解答！
简单地说，名词化是指用于名词的动词或修饰词。例如，动词转换为名词：discovery->discovery， move->movement， refuse->refusal，另一个例子是将修饰词转化名词：careless->carelessness， difficult->difficulty， intense->intensity。那么在什么情况下，我们需要名词化呢？
A 谓语动词的宾语部分
原话：I do not know either what she meant or what he intends.
名词化：I do not know either her meaning or his intentions.
B 与被动形式相结合
原话：If people decide without enough persuasive information...
名词化：If a decision is made without enough persuasive information...
C 替代品，如从句“the fact that”的用法
原话：The fact that I denied what he accused me of impressed the jury.
名词化：My denial of his accusations impressed the jury.
更好的名词化：a. When I denied his accusations， I impressed the jury.
b. In denying his accusations， I impressed the jury.
D 名词化部分用于therere is/are后面
原话：We demand that the government stop taxing entertainment.
名词化：There is a demand for an end to taxation on entertainment.
原话：The floods considerably eroded the land.
名词化：There was considerable erosion of the land from the floods.
然而，有时，当外国人认为在准备新托福写作时理所当然地使用“名词”时，他们认为这是没有必要的。例如：
A 跟随动词后面的名词化部分
原话(名词化“冗余”)：The police conducted an investigation into the matter.
改后：The police investigated the matter.
B 名词化部分作为主语
原话：Our discussion is concerned with a tax cut.
改后：We discussed a tax cut.
C 连续进行名词化
原话：a. First， she reviewed the evolution of the dorsal fin.
b. There was a first a review of the evolution of the dorsal fin.
改后：First， she reviewed how the dorsal fin evolved.
D 连接部分名词化
原话：Their cessation of hostilities was because of their personnel losses.
改后：They ceased hostilities because they lost personnel.
原话：The instability of the motor housing did not preclude the completion of the field trials.
改后：Even though the motor housing was unstable， the research staff completed the field trials.
