新东方网为同学们整理了PTE写作语法常犯易错点,供考生参考学习。
主谓一致错误
1. 动词不定式、动名词、主语从句作主语要看作为一个整体,谓语动词用单数形式。
例子:To deliver newspapers are a tiring job.
修改:To deliver newspapersisa tiring job.
解析:这里的To deliver newspapers作主语,谓语动词看作单数,应改为is。
2. Not only…but also为并列连词,连接动词是都需注意和主语保持一致。
例子:Selling newspapers not only makes some money but also give us someworking experience during the summer vacation.
修改:Selling newspapers not only makes some money but alsogivesus some working experience during the summer vacation.
解析:本句的主语Selling newspapers为动名词,谓语动词give应改为gives,makes 和gives 为平行结构,作并列谓语。
3. As well as/together with/along with/including结构,放在句子做插入语,主语在前一个名词,谓语动词与前一个名词保持一致。
例子:Tom, as well as his children, are to visit Beijing this summer.
修改:Tom, as well as his children,isto visit Beijing this summer.
解析:主语为Tom,谓语动词are应改为is。
非谓语动词类错误
1. Spend some money (on) do sth, spend some time (in) doing sth., 注意固定搭配doing。
例子:A lot of money has been spent to buy the book.
修改:A lot of money has been spentbuyingthe book.
解析:to buy应改为buying。
例子:I will spend a week reading and prepare for the examination.
修改:I will spend a week reading andpreparingfor the examination.
解析:preparing 和前面的 reading 是并列结构,prepare改为preparing。
2. 感官动词see/hear +sb. +do sth. 表示看到/听到某人做某事,强调动作的全过程;see/hear +sb. +doing sth. 强调动作的正在发生。
例子:I heard her sing a song which moved me to tears. “我”听完了整首歌曲,强调动作的全过程。
例子:I heard her singing a song in the classroom this morning. “我”今天早上在教室听她正在唱歌。强调动作的正在发生。
3. enjoy 后面用动名词作宾语,Enjoy doing sth。
例子:I enjoy to listen to the classic music.
修改:I enjoylisteningto the classic music.
解析:to listen改为listening。
连词错误
1.同一个句子里有两套主谓宾/主谓。
例子:The day is almost over, the game was a draw.
修改:The day is almost overandthe game was a draw.
解析:把逗号改成and。
2.However不是连词,是副词,不可连接两个句子。while/whereas是连词,可以连接两个句子,表达“然而”。
例子:My mother is cleaning the fruits in the chicken, however, my father is watching TV in the living room.
修改:My mother is cleaning the fruits in the chickenwhilemy father is watching TV in the living room.
解析:把however 改成 while 即可。
