四、非謂語動(dòng)詞使用錯(cuò)誤
非謂語動(dòng)詞在六級綜合改錯(cuò)里算是一個(gè)較為令人頭疼的改錯(cuò)類型,它包括不定式、分詞、動(dòng)名詞。六級改錯(cuò)中主要出現(xiàn)的是非謂語動(dòng)詞和主要謂語動(dòng)詞之間的混淆,具體分為以下兩種情況:
① 分詞,主要是現(xiàn)在分詞和過去分詞的誤用,如: a puzzled question → a puzzling question ; an exciting girl → an excited girl 等。
② 動(dòng)詞非謂語形式做主語、賓語,有時(shí)需要 it 作形式主語或形式賓語。如: This is no good arguing with him.(This → it )
例1
The idea that learn a foreign language is hard 1.__________
work is realized by every student.
分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知:the idea是主語;is realized是謂語部分;that引導(dǎo)同位語從句。從句中l(wèi)earn a foreign language是主語,而learn是動(dòng)詞形式,應(yīng)改為動(dòng)名詞“l(fā)earning”。
例2
From these unearthed bones scientists are able
to reconstruct the skeleton of the animal and from
the reconstructing skeleton, they can obtain quite 1.__________
a good idea of its appearance.
“reconstructing”表示正在進(jìn)行的動(dòng)作,而根據(jù)原句可知,“skeleton”本身并不能發(fā)出這個(gè)動(dòng)作,而應(yīng)該為“reconstructed”,意為“the skeleton that is reconstructed”,這是過去分詞作為定語。
例3
Lighthouses are set up to warn the passed ships 1.__________
of the dangers along the coast. Ancient people used
simple fire signal which could only mean “Danger!
Keep off”.
“passed ships”表示“已經(jīng)過去的船只”,當(dāng)然不可能再給予警告,這不符合邏輯,應(yīng)該改為passing,意為“過往的船只”,此處現(xiàn)在分詞作定語。
例4
But modern lighthouse also identifies itself in a
code knowing to all ships that pass by. Most of the 1.__________
modern lighthouses have a revolving light that is
red and then green.
根據(jù)句意可知,這些代碼所有的船只都知道,即“a code which is known to all ships”的省略形式,“knowing”表示“正在知道,了解”這個(gè)動(dòng)作過程,顯然不符合題意,故應(yīng)該將knowing改為known。
非謂語動(dòng)詞的使用錯(cuò)誤雖然不外乎不定式、分詞(包括現(xiàn)在分詞和過去分詞)以及動(dòng)名詞三種類型,然而使用起來往往容易混淆,而且也不易區(qū)分,所以得分率通常都較低。
