關(guān)閉窗口 英語(yǔ)寫作常見(jiàn)錯(cuò)誤例析(詞性問(wèn)題)
英語(yǔ)和漢語(yǔ)不僅在遣詞造句、句型搭配、習(xí)慣用法等方面有很大的差別，就是在詞性方面也有很大的差別，并且這種差別有時(shí)會(huì)使同學(xué)們?cè)趯懽鲿r(shí)稍不小心就釀成錯(cuò)誤。如：
誤用：Unfortunately, my car broke down and I was stuck here during it was being repaired.
改為：Unfortunately, my car broke down and I was stuck here while it was being repaired.
說(shuō)明：during 是介詞，后接名詞或代詞，不接句子。又如：He confidently authorized me to act for him while he is abroad. 他信任地委托我在他出國(guó)期間代行他的事務(wù)。
句意：不幸的是，我的車壞了，在修車的時(shí)候，我就被困在那里了。
誤用：He used to be very anxious if he had to make a speech, even it was only a speech to his old school.
改為：He used to be very anxious if he had to make a speech, even if it was only a speech to his old school.
說(shuō)明：從語(yǔ)義上看，even 和 even if都可表示“即使”，但是兩者的詞性不同：even 是副詞，even if 是連詞。比如：It was cold there even in July. 那里即使在七月，天氣都很冷。Even if I have to walk all the way I’ll get there. 即使我得一路走著去，我也要走到那里。
句意：如果他要演講，他總是焦急不安，哪怕演講是在以前呆過(guò)的學(xué)校進(jìn)行。
誤用：With the cost of keeping money in the bank increases, so it’s spent faster.
改為：As the cost of keeping money in the bank increases, so it’s spent faster.
說(shuō)明：雖然 with 和 as 均可表示“隨著”，但詞性不同：with 是介詞，后接名詞或代詞，而 as 用于此義時(shí)是連詞，后接句子。比較：He will improve as he grows older. 隨著年齡的增長(zhǎng)，他會(huì)進(jìn)步的。People’s ideas change with the change of the times. 時(shí)代變了，人們的觀念也會(huì)變化。
句意：隨著在銀行存錢的費(fèi)用增加，人們的錢花得也更快了。
誤用：She crawled cross the floor, her eyes stinging from the smoke.
改為：She crawled across the floor, her eyes stinging from the smoke.
說(shuō)明： across 和 cross 均可表示“橫過(guò)”、“穿過(guò)”，但詞性不同：across 是介詞，cross 是動(dòng)詞。比較：cross the street 橫過(guò)馬路 / walk across the street 走過(guò)馬路；cross a river 過(guò)河，渡河 / swim across a river 游過(guò)河
句意：她從地板上爬過(guò)去，眼睛被煙熏得直痛。
誤用：We were driving around outside when unfortunately three old ladies emerged from the hotel and came straightly across in front of us.
改為：We were driving around outside when unfortunately three old ladies emerged from the hotel and came straight across in front of us.
說(shuō)明：在現(xiàn)代英語(yǔ)中，straight 既可用作形容詞，也可用作副詞。straightly這個(gè)副詞形式在現(xiàn)代英語(yǔ)中已被廢棄，許多詞典均不再收錄此詞。又如：We enjoy fresh vegetables and fruit, straight from the garden: fresh orange juice, fresh fish, fresh bread. 我們享用直接從果菜園采摘的新鮮的蔬菜和水果、新鮮的橘汁、新鮮的魚、新鮮的面包。
句意：我們正在外面開(kāi)車兜風(fēng)時(shí)，倒霉的是有三位老年婦女突然從飯店出來(lái)，直接從我們面前穿過(guò)。
誤用：He fell down to the ground, his mouth open and eyes close.
改為：He fell down to the ground, his mouth open and eyes closed.
說(shuō)明：open 和 close 均可用作動(dòng)詞，前者表示“開(kāi)”，后者表示“關(guān)”，是一對(duì)反義詞，如：Please open your mouth.(請(qǐng)張開(kāi)嘴)，Please close your mouth. (請(qǐng)閉上嘴)。但是 open 和 close 也可用作形容詞，此時(shí)前者意為“開(kāi)著的”，后者意為“接近的”、“親近的”等，而并不表示“關(guān)著的”，要表示“關(guān)著的”，英語(yǔ)用 closed，即用作形容詞時(shí)，open 與close 不是一對(duì)反義詞，而與 closed 才是反義詞。
句意：他倒在地上，嘴張開(kāi)著，眼睛閉著。
