托?？荚?/a>的作文一直讓不少烤鴨十分撓頭。從確定主題、理清思路，到劃好層次、遣詞造句，環(huán)環(huán)相扣缺一不可，因此作文永遠(yuǎn)不是一項(xiàng)小工程！
雖說ETS在評判托福作文時(shí)采用的是綜合評分的方式，即以作文的整體水平判分，而不糾結(jié)于小細(xì)節(jié)。但有些同學(xué)往往會(huì)在語言方面疏漏多多，問題明顯到影響了考官整體評斷的程度，那即便你的思路和論證屬于一流，最多也只能得個(gè)二流分?jǐn)?shù)，豈不可惜！
下面，我們就來談一談同學(xué)們在托福寫作中最容易犯的語言錯(cuò)誤。大家可以對號(hào)入座，看看自己是不是也犯過類似的錯(cuò)誤呢？

1. 用詞不當(dāng)

原：The absence of groupwork is a disaster for teenagers in modern society.
改：The absence of teamwork is a disaster for teenagers in modern society.
評：groupwork是“分組”或者“小組集體任務(wù)”的意思。這位同學(xué)原本想說teamwork“團(tuán)隊(duì)合作”，卻用了一個(gè)看起來很像，但實(shí)際完全不同的詞，表達(dá)出來的意思就風(fēng)馬牛不相及了。

原：You will be dangerous if you keep moving without a clear view of the whole picture.
改：You will be in danger if you keep moving without a clear view of the whole picture.
評：dangerous表示所修飾的對象是“帶來危險(xiǎn)的，有危險(xiǎn)性的”，而be in danger才是“身處險(xiǎn)境”的意思。到底誰才是威脅呢？

原：Firstly, the job, providing the opportunity for students to utilize what they learned in class, might effect their further development.
改：Firstly, the job, providing the opportunity for students to utilize what they learned in class, might affect their further development.
評：模樣長得像，意思可不同了。這里想用動(dòng)詞affect表示“影響”，卻誤寫為名詞effect“效果”，一字千里啊！

2. 搭配錯(cuò)誤

原：Nowadays, people are crazy pursuing to be excellent.
改：Nowadays, people are crazy about excellence.
評：這位同學(xué)顯然記錯(cuò)了be crazy about sth. 這個(gè)用法，寫出來的句子自然會(huì)出問題啦。

原：Besides, public speech can effectively increase your communication skills, which facilitate your salesman career.
改：Besides, public speech can effectively improve your communication skills, which facilitate your salesman career.
評：此處是一個(gè)明顯的動(dòng)賓搭配錯(cuò)誤?！疤岣摺记伞睉?yīng)該是improve the skills，而不是increase the skills.

3.詞性錯(cuò)位

原：I will forget my sad and pressure from the work and the study.
改：I will forget my sadness and pressure from work and study.
評：sad是形容詞，而這里明顯需要一個(gè)名詞，應(yīng)該是sadness。

原：Although making money is a priority for most people, spending time with the family is equal significant.
改：…, spending time with the family is equally significant.
評：形容詞significant前需要用副詞來修飾，所以equal應(yīng)該改成equally。

4. 時(shí)態(tài)混亂

原：Although I have no work experience when I was a teenager, I always dreamed about having a job.
改：Although I had no work experience when I was a teenager, I always dreamed about having a job.
評：過去時(shí)的句子中冒出了現(xiàn)在時(shí)，同學(xué)你太粗心了，要仔細(xì)檢查哦~

原：I would explain my view in the following paragraphs.
改：I’d like to explain… / I will explain…
評：可能是兩種說法記混了吧，結(jié)果把時(shí)態(tài)搞錯(cuò)了……

5. 主謂不一致

原：The way we deal with the environmental problems are crucial to the prosperity of human-being.
改：The way we deal with the environmental problems is crucial to the prosperity of human-being.
評：謂語之前有兩個(gè)名詞時(shí)，主謂搭配的問題就常常出現(xiàn)了。這里真正的主語應(yīng)該是單數(shù)名詞the way，所以與之搭配的謂語也應(yīng)該是單數(shù)的is。

6. 重復(fù)累贅

原：From my point of view, I think this argument is quite limited since many other ways can also help learning a foreign country.
改：From my point of view, this argument is quite limited since many other ways can also help us learn a foreign country.
評：from my point of view和I think重復(fù)啦，保留一個(gè)就好。當(dāng)然這里建議留下更“高級(jí)”的from my point of view.

原：There are the majority of people who deem that they like to spend money on things which can bring them long memory.
改：Majority of the people like to spend money on things that can be memorized for long.
評：中文句式說的“有很多人……”，但別一看到“有”就非要用there be句型不可哦，直接擺出主謂賓就行了。
“things that can be memorized for long”，被動(dòng)語態(tài)明顯更地道~

7. 中式英語

原：Thus, one is easier to draw bosses’ attention and gain appreciation.
改：Thus, it’s easier for you to draw bosses’ attention and gain appreciation.
評：中文習(xí)慣說“人們可以更容易地吸引老板的注意力”，而英語則習(xí)慣說“It’s easier for sb. to…”同學(xué)們要注意中英表述習(xí)慣的區(qū)別哦！
