中式英语大扫除.pdf

1、 中式英语大扫除，地道表达看这里！中式英语大扫除，地道表达看这里！ 中国人在学习英语时， 由于中西方文化差异和语言表达习惯不同， 往往会说出或写出以 英语为母语的人理解不了的英语句子， 有的完全是 Chinglish (中式英语)， 闹出笑话。 比如:“做 早操对你的身体有好处”的英语表达不是“Doing morning exercises is good for your body.” 而是“Doing morning exercises is good for your health.又如:“他适合这项新工作吗?”不是 “Does he fit the new job?而是“Does th

2、e new job fit him?再如:“他耳朵听不见”不是“His ears are deaf.”而是“He is deaf ( in both ears). 本编文章主要是纠正中国人说写英语所犯的错误，即“中式英语”错误。每组句子都采 取误正句对比的形式， 进行矫正分析， 使学生能够在对比中知错， 迅速知道病句的症结所在， 避免再犯类似的错误。 a (great )deal of 大量，相当多 例句 教授给了我许多书。 【误用】 The professor gave me a great deal of books. 【正确】 The professor gave me a great

3、number of books. 【说明】 a great deal of 表示“许多.”的意思，只能修饰不可数名词，谓语动词用单数形 式。类似的短语还有 a great deal of。 例句 对这个问题他们谈了很多。 【误用】They talked a great deal of about the problem. 【正确】They talked a great deal about the problem. 【说明】a great deal 后面没有名词时，不加 of。 as.as 和.一样 例句 他和她一样是位好老师。 【误用】 He is as a good teacher as

4、her. 【正确】 He is as good a teacher as her. 【说明】在 as.as.结构中，第一个 as 是副词，不能修饰名词，因此要将形容词 good 提前。 例如: Your mother is not as young and strong as she used to be.你妈妈现在可不如从前那样年 轻、强壮了。注意:在肯定句中，as.as.也可以说成 so.as.,但在否定句中只能说 so.as.。 as far as 远到，远至;至于 例句 我一直送他到车站。 【误用】I saw him as far as to the station. 【正确】I sa

5、w him as far as the station. 【说明】as far as 中已经含有“到达”“远至”的意思，再使用 to 就语义重复了。例如: Hell go with you as far as the station for company. 他将陪你到车站。 as follows 如下所述 例句 说明如下。 【误用】The explanation is as follow. 【正确】The explanation is as follows. 【说明】无论谓语动词是单数还是复数，“如下” 一律使用 as follows,不说 as follow。 as good as 和.一

6、样，等于 例句 这台 DVD 播放器用了两年，看上去还像新的一样。 【误用】 This DVD player has been used for two years and looks as well as new. 【正确】 This DVD player has been used for two years and looks as good as new. 【说明】as well as 是“也”“又”的意思，as good as 是“和.一样”“等于” “简直是”的意思，两者不能混淆。 as much as 与.一样 例向 汤姆与约翰一样擅长数学。 【误用】 Tom as much a

7、s John were good at mathematics. 【正确】Tom as much as John was good at mathematics. 【说明】as much as 与主语连用时，并不影响主语的数。 as soon as 一.就. 例向 他一来， 我们就告诉他。 【误用】 As soon as he will come, well let him know. 【正确】As soon as he comes, well let him know. 【说明】在 as soon as 引导的时间状语从句里，要用一般现在时表示一般将来时。 as though 好像 例向 他

8、看上去似乎累了。 【误用】 He looks as though he is tired. 【正确】 He looks as though he were tired. 【说明】as though 和 as if 一样是“好像.似的”“仿佛.似的”的意思， 它所讲述的情况是主观想象的或夸大事实的，与实际情况不相符，所以要用虚拟语气。 as well 还，也 例句 这个小女孩不仅会唱歌，还会弹钢琴。 【误用】The little girl not only sings, and she as well plays the piano. 【正确】 The little girl not only

9、sings, and she plays the piano as well. 【说明】 as well 在肯定句中是“还”“也”的意思，与 too 同义，通常放在句末作状语。 as well as 也， 同样地; 即.又.,不仅.而且. 例句 老师以及学生都想参观博物馆。 【误用】 The teacher as well as the students want to visit the museum. 【正确】The teacher as well as the students wants to visit the museum. 【说明】 as well as 是并列连词， 当其连接两

10、个主语时， 谓语动词应与 as well as 前面的名词 或代词的人称和数一致。例如: I,as well as he, know that.我和他一样， 也知道那件事。 He as well as you is responsible for it.你和他对这件事都有责任。 at once 同时，立刻 例句 所有的事都一起发生了。 【误用】 Everything happened all at once. 【正确】Everything happened at once. 【说明】 all at once 的意思是“突然”，而 at once 的意思是“同时”“立刻”“马上”。 in cas

11、e 万一；以防 例句 如果着火了，请马上拨打电话 119。 【误用】In the case of fire, dial 119 at once. 【正确】In case of fire,dial119 at once. 【说明】in case of 是“假使” “如果”“以防”“万一”的意思。In the case of 表示“就.而言” “在.情况下”“至于”。 例句 穿上雨衣，以防下雨。 【误用】 Take your raincoat in case it will rain. 【正确】 Take your raincoat in case it rains. 【说明】in case 表示

12、“以防”“如果”“万一”。当它引导从句时，用现在时表示将来时间或条 件，而不用一般将来时。 in order to that 为了， 以便 例句 他们坐飞机走，这样可以及时赶到那里。 【误用】 They went by plane in order that they got there in time. 【正确】 They went by plane in order that they might get there in time. 【说明】in order that 引导表示过去的目的状语从句，从句中不能用一般过去时， 一般要加 might,could, should 等情态动词。 例

13、句 唯恐失败，我努力学习。 【误用】 I studied hard in order to not fail. 【正确】 I studied hard in order not to fail. 【说明】in order to 的否定形式是 in order not to, 而不是 in order to not,表示的意 思是“以免.” “为了不.”。 instead of 代替 例句 她没去游泳，而是去跑步。 【误用】 She went to run instead of to swim. 【正确】She went to run instead of swimming. 【说明】 inst

14、ead of 后面跟名词或动名词，而不能接动词不定式结构。 used to 习惯于; (过去)惯常 例句 那是我孩提时读书的地方。 【误用】Thats where I used to studying when I was a child. 【正确】 Thats where I used to study when I was a child. 【说明】used to do sth.表示“过去经常(做某事)”，to 是不定式符号。 例句 他习惯于坐在沙发上看报纸。 【误用】 He is used to read newspapers sitting in sofa. 【正确】 He is used to reading newspapers sitting in sofa. 【说明】表示“习惯于.”的意思，要用 be used to doing sth. , 其中的 to 是介词。
