在托福写作中,考生需要注意语法问题。虽然很多学生都能理解他们写的句子,但事实上,他们在网上 speaker似乎很尴尬,乍一看就是chinglish的感觉。如果你想写地道的句子,你需要在语法上下功夫。下面由新航道的沈阳托福小编为您解答!
托福写作语法表达改写实例分析
选择合适的句法结构可以使句子意思的表达更加准确和简洁。虽然语法的多样化也很重要,但选择最合适的句法结构仍然是一个更重要的参考标准。以下是考生在考虑选择哪种句法结构时可以参考的原则:
托福写作用句太平凡怎么办?
1.句子的主语和谓语动词应能反映句子中最重要的含义。例如:
The situation that resulted in my grandfather’s not being able to study engineering was that his father needed help on the farm.
从意义上分析,上述句子需要表达的重要概念是“grandfather’s not being able to study“,但在表达这个概念时,原话中使用的主语是situation,谓语动词是was,不能强调需要表达的关键概念,可以改为以下句子:
My grandfather couldn’t study engineering because his father needed help on the farm.
2.防止经常使用“经常使用”there be“结构,如下面的句子:
There were 25 cows on the farm that my grandfather had to milk every day.It was hard work for my grandfather.
能够改成:My grandfather worked hard. He had to milk 25 cows on the farm every day.
更简洁的句型为:
My grandfather worked hard milking 25 cows daily.
3.将从句改为句子或单词。例如:
Dairy cows were raised on the farm, which was located 100 kilometers from the nearest university and was in an area that was remote.
简介的表达方式如下:
The dairy farm was located in a remote area, 100 kilometers to the nearest university.
4.只有在需要强调宾语而不是主语的时候才使用被动语态。例如:
In the fall, not only did the cows have to be milked, but also the hay was mowed and stacked by my grandfather’s family.
这句话不够简洁的原因是这句话的重点应该是“忙碌的家庭”-my grandfather’s
family使用被动语态后,重心似乎变成了cows和hay。以下表达方式为主动语态,相对简洁:
In the fall, my grandfather’s family not only milked the cow but also mowed and stacked the hay.
5.用更准确的动词代替动词短语,如以下句子:
My grandfather didn’t have time to stand around doing nothing with his school friends.
Stand around doing 事实上,nothing可以用一个动词来表示,即loiter:My grandfather didn’t have time to loiter with his school friends.
6.有时两句话的信息可以用一句话简单地表达出来,比如:
Profits from the farm were not large. Sometimes they were too small to meet the expenses of running a farm. They were not sufficient to pay for a university degree.
两句话的信息可以合并为以下更简单的句子:
Profits from the farm were sometimes too small to meet operational expenses,let alone pay for a university degree.
