英语中我们经常会遇到一些习惯的语法,导致我们犯了自己都不知道的错误,下面小新就列出20个常见错误,大家一定要注意哦!
1. All the balls are not round. 翻译成汉语:
所有的球都不是圆的。(×)
并不是所有的球都是圆的。(√)
[析] all, every, both等词和not连用时,not通常放在all, every, both的后面,一般情况下表示部分否定,意为"并非……都……"。
2. The Smiths have moved Beijing. (×)
The Smiths have moved to Beijing. (√)
[析] 不及物动词后接名词或代词作宾语时,要在动词之后加上适当的介词;但不及物动词后接home, here, there等副词作宾语时,动词之后不必加任何介词。
3. The box is too heavy for him to carry it. (×)
The box is too heavy for him to carry. (√)
[析] the box既是这句话的主语, 也是不定式to carry的逻辑宾语,若句末再加上it,就和the box重复了。
4. Each of the boys have a pen. (×)
Each of the boys has a pen. (√)
[析] 复数名词前有表个体的each of, one of, every,either of等词组修饰,或有表否定的neither of, none of 等词组修饰时,谓语动词要用单数形式。
5. Neither he nor you is good at English. (×)
Neither he nor you are good at English. (√)
[析] either... or..., neither... nor..., not only..., but also... 等词组连接句子的两个主语时,谓语动词遵循"就近一致原则", 即由靠近谓语的那个主语决定谓语的人称和数用何种形式。
6. Ten minus three are seven. (×)
Ten minus three is seven. (√)
[析] 用英语表示加(plus)、减(minus)等数学运算时,谓语动词也用单数形式。
7. The number of the workers in this factory are about 5,000. (×)
The number of the workers in this factory is about 5,000. (√)
[析] the number of表示"……的数量",谓语动词用单数形式;a number of 的意思是"若干"或"许多",相当于some或a lot of,和复数名词连用,谓语动词用复数形式。
8. Hello! I have important something to tell you. (×)
Hello! I have something important to tell you. (√)
[析] 形容词或动词不定式修饰不定代词作定语时,修饰成分要置于不定代词之后。
9. His son is enough old to go to school. (×)
His son is old enough to go to school. (√)
[析] enough作形容词修饰名词时,可以放在名词前,也可放在名词后;作副词修饰形容词或副词时,只能放在形容词或副词之后。
10. Here is your sweater, put away it.(×)
Here is your sweater, put it away. (√)
[析] put away, pick up, put on等"动词+副词"构成的词组后接代词作宾语时,代词只能放在动词和副词之间。
