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 t he production and sale of fake commodities should be
banned.
(正)I think t he 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 t he problem of energy shortage.
(正)Scientist s are trying to find a solution to t he 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 t he main cause which leads to air pollution.
(正)Waste gas is t he 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。
① (误)The weather was fine, we decided to climb t he mountain.
(正)As the weather was fine, we decided to climb t he mountain.
② (误)The prospect s are bright, the road has twist s and t urns.
(正)While t he prospect s are bright, the road has twist s and t urns.
(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 t he lake.
(3)变成并列句,用分号连接:
The wind was blowing very hard; couldn’t go boating on t he 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 t he lake.
(7)用独立主格结构改写句子:
The wind blowing very hard, they couldn’t go boating on t he lake.
