2.励志的英文句子 篇二
1 子句的恰当使用
句子缺乏变化会使文章读起来单调乏味。并列关系和从属关系常用来增加句子的表现形式。
1.1 并列关系 (Coordination)
将两个或多个紧密相关的想法或动作以连接词结合在一起 (这些连接词通常叫做并列连词和关联连词。) (Wang, 2000:3)
1.1.1 用逗号和并列连词连接独立子句
“并列连词有and, but, or, so, for, neither/nor, 等等, 或者这些独立子句仅用分号连接。
1) They put a new traffic light on the corner.There are still a lot of accidents.
They put a new traffic light on the comer, but there are still a lot of accidents.
They put a new traffic light on the corner;however, there are still a lot of traffic accidents.
2) The man is a detective.He is following a woman.He is investigating a drug case now.
The man following a woman is a detective, and he is investigating a drug case now.
3) Anna's husband forgot her birthday.Anna was disap-pointed.
Anna's husband forgot her birthday, so she was disappointed.Anna was disappointed, for her husband forgot her birthday.Anna's husband forgot her birthday;thus, she was disap-pointed.” (ibid)
使用该写作技巧时应注意如下几点:
1) “…一连串的并列从句会令人生厌。‘There was more crime in the street, the criminals were running around free, the judges were letting people go, nobody was safe in the streets, criminals were out on bail, murderers were on parole, and nobodydid anything.’” (Hall.1985:170)
2) 不能将诸如besides, moreover, still, however, nevertheless, otherwise, hence, thus, therefore作为并列连词。这些副词前面常有分号, 后面接逗号。 (Wang, 2000:3)
3) “使用逗号隔开独立子句, 而不是用分号的话, 就犯了逗号谬误 (comma splice error) 。” (Kinsella.1985:177)
1.1.2 用并列连词和关联连词连接独立子句省略重复和相同的部分
“句子用关联连词连接, 例如:not only…but also…, both …and…, either…or…, neither…nor….
1) Environmental pollution should be solved.Environmenta pollution can be solved.
改为:Environmental pollution should and can be solved.
2) Manufacturers cautiously predict a rapid economic recov-ery.They optimistically predict a dramatic economic recovery.
改为:Cautiously but optimistically, manufacturers predic not only a rapid but also a dramatic economic recovery.
3) Mr.Smith is an amateur athlete.He is a first-rate teacher.
改为:
Mr.Smith is both an amateur athlete and a first-rate teacher.
Mr.Smith is not only an amateur athlete but also a first-rate teacher.
Mr.Smith is a first-rate teacher as well as an amateur athlete.4) We can not go there by train.We can not go there by ship.改为:We can go there neither by train nor by ship.’’ (Wang, 2000:3)
1.2 从属关系 (Subordination)
重要的想法和动作出现在独立子句或主句里, 独立是因为传递信息不需要帮助。
1.2.1 选择主句
“……简单句子无法显示出几个想法相对重要性的差别……下面几对句子哪个想法更重要?或者它们的重要性是同等的?
信息A:Jan excels in tennis.She prefers basketball.…
你只能猜哪一个想法更重要, 除非作者告诉你……若你获得下面信息。
假设你是一所小型大学的网球教练, 那里给女网球手奖学金的机会少之又少。简小姐是其中一种奖学金最优秀的竞争者。你从一位信任的童子军那得到对简小姐的评价。你会给她奖学金吗?
信息A:
Although Jan excels in tennis, she prefers basketball.
(不给她奖学金。)
Although Jan prefers basketball, she excels in tennis.
(给她奖学金) …
第一个信息的作者知道说什么, 但是没有向读者表达清楚。作者若未向读者说明哪一个想法更重要, 信息表达不明了。” (Donald.1987:182-183)
因此, 选择主句时连词的使用要谨慎, 连词放在不同位置甚至会产生相反的结果。
R.T.Berner在他的书中指出:“从属关系的一个误区是从属了错误对象或是与主句不一致的对象。
错误对象:
An 81-year-old Minnesota man was hunting when he died of a heart attack early today.
句子的中心意思见斜体部分。消息从属了信息中不重要的部分。上述句子不应该用从属关系, 句子应改为:
An 81-year-old Minnesota man died of a heart attack while hunting early today.
句子改过后中心意思就明确了, 而不是被隐含着。不一致:
The judge rejected the Blacks’request for$2, 500 in damages although he
estimated that a horse drops an average of 24 pounds of manure daily.
句子的斜体部分与句子的要点 (法官拒绝上诉) 毫无关联。若记着一个句子是个逻辑形式, 句中里的每个成分都有逻辑关联, 就不会错误地使用从属关系了。” (Berner.1979:41)
1.2.2 从属子句的正确使用
“从句作为形容词使用有标志性记号who, whom, whose, that, and which. (因为这些词与主句的名词有关系, 形容词从句又称为定语从句。) 形容词从句出现在他们修饰的词语后面。请看如下例子:
The gains in the stock value that we had anticipated did not materialize.
A real estate agent whom we know in Pomona gave us the information that led to our purchase of the Kent Building.
形容词从句可以是限定性的或非限定性的.
限定性的:Miss Brainerd likes books that stimulate her in-tellectually.
非限定性的:
Miss Brainerd likes The Hidden Persuaders, which stimulated her intellectually.
状语从句位于句子结构的后面, 典型标记有since, because, unless, as, as if, where, although, 和as…as, 他们又称为从属连词。
当用于主句后面时, 大部分状语从句是限定性的;它们不需要标点。通常是非限定性的、需要逗号标点的状语从句以如下标记开头:
1) even though和although.
Mr.Hall assumes you will accompany him on the trip, even though he may not have said so specially.
Their workmen are experienced and their morale is good although the machinery is antiquated.
2) since当它具有含义because.
The discussion had to be terminated, since the noon whistle had sounded.
(……因为中午笛声……)
I have not seen Mr.Purvis since he returned from Europe. (时间)
3) Because当它只是为陈述增加凭证。当because引入为构成主要论述解释原因和目的的从句, 状语从句一般是限定性的, 不需要逗号标点。
I know the thermostats behave erratically at times, because our customers have said so. (作出声明的事实根据)
The thermostats behave erratically at times because they are improperly connected. (原因)
Martha retyped the letter because she wanted it to be perfect. (目的)
尽管形容词从句必须跟在修饰名词的后面, 状语从句可以从正常位置移开, 用作解释说明:
No buildings have gone up since the ban was first imposed.
Since the ban was first imposed, no buildings have gone up.
They received a bonus because they had worked so dili-gently.
Because they had worked so diligently, they received a bonus.”
(Romine.1981:24-25)
2 句子结构中的错误和从属子句的误用
句子结构中最普遍的错误是Fragment (残缺句或碎句) 和run-on (连写句或混合句) 。 (Kinsella.1985:171) “所有的从属子句都具有语句中单独部分的功能, 例如:名词、形容词、副词。用这样的一个子句代替另一个子句, 错误程度与将形容词用作副词一样严重。” (Harry.1970:301)
2.1 残缺句 (Fragments)
Kinsella提出一个积极的规则:“虽然残缺句出现形式多样, 最常见的是独立的从属子句……可以用主句连接它们或者将他们改写为完整的句子。”
2.1.1 单独的从属子句
“最常见的残缺句是加上标点后很像完整句子的从属子句……然而单独的从属子句是需要主句才能表意的。从属子句的第一个词通常是从属连词或关系代词 (见下面清单) 。当你在一个像是完整句子的开始处发现下面的一个词时, 应仔细检查确定这部分是否恰当与一个主句相结合。
2.1.2 给从属子句加标点
“给从属子句正确加标点在于它们是构成句子的前部还是最后面部分。如果从属子句构成句子前部, 则子句后面加逗号。如果从属子句构成句子的第二部分, 则从属子句前不加逗号。
构成句子的第一部分:
Although I have a two-week vacation this summer, I can’t afford to go anywhere.
构成句子的第二部分:
You should make a determined effort to avoid sentence fragments because they are considered serious mistakes in writing.” (Kinsella.1985:173)
2.2 连写句 (Run-on sentences)
“在独立子句或主句之间没有加入必要的标点 (句号、逗号、分号) 会产生连写句……要解释这个句子结构的错误, 应努力避免关注基本规则而忽视特例。
两个或多个主句组成复合句时, 必须准确标注标点。如果用并列连词 (and, but, for, nor, or) , 连词前要有逗号。{So和yet前逗号可加可不加。一些教科书把so和yet分类为并列连词.一些把so和yet分类为副词连词……) ……
如果两个主句由副词连词连接 (such, as, so, yet, thus, hence, however, consequently, furthermore, nevertheless, or otherwise) , 主句应由分号连接。如果两个独立子句没有用连词连接, 则必须写成两个单独的句子, 或由分号来分隔。
连写句We spent the entire afternoon working on our pass defense for our coach felt that Lincoln High would exploit this weakness if their backs could not penetrate our line.
修改后We spent the entire afternoon working on our pass defense, for our coach felt that Lincoln High would exploit this weakness if their backs could not penetrate our line.
评论需要在for前加个逗号, 并列连词连接两个独立子句”
(Kinsella.1985:175-176)
2.3 从属子句的误用
“最普遍的误用是把状语从句用作名词性从句, 把状语从句用作名词, 把一个整句用作名词性从句或名词” (Harry 1970:301)
2.3.1 状语从句用作名词性从句
“名词性从句是动词的主语, 动词的宾语, 或是述语主格状语从句则不是。更正误用的状语从句, 把它换成名词性从句, 或补充一个动词, 状语从句可以修饰这个动词。
可疑的:George remembered where the radio said the stock market is
dropping.Because there was no use in his staying was the reason Bob
left the meeting.
正确的:George remembered that the radio said the stock market is dropping.
Bob left the meeting because there was no use in his staying.
That there was no use in his staying was the reason Bob lef the meeting.” (Harry.1970:301)
2.3.2 状语从句用作单独的名词或名词词组
“和上面句子应用的原因类似, 要避免把状语从句用作单独的名词或名词词组。When, where, because子句经常出错。
可疑的:False flattery is when you pay a lot of compliments that are not sincere.
My sailing trophy was because I won three races out of four.
清楚的:False flattery is paying a lot of insincere compli-ments.
False flattery is the payment of a lot of compliments which are not sincere.
Winning three races out of four gained me the sailing trophy.
I earned the sailing trophy by winning three races out of four.”
(Harry.1970:302)
2.3.3 使用名词性从句, 不是句子, 作为is和was的主语或补语“援引句子的使用普遍认为是主语或补语:
‘When I consider how my light is spent’is a line from John Milton’s famous poem, ‘On His Blindness.’
然而, 总的来说, 一个句子不能合适地用作is和was的主语或补语。纠正这种逻辑错误可以把句子或独立子句改写为状语从句, 把状语从句简化成词组, 或使用合适的从属连词 (常用that) 把句子改成从属子句。
可疑的:I had broken my leg was the reason resigned from the team.
Bill’s only virtue is he never is rude to his mother.
正确的:The reason that I resigned from the team was that Ihad broker my leg.
I resigned from the team because I had broken my leg.
Bill’s only virtue is that he is never rude to his mother.
Bill has only one virtue:never being rude to his mother.”
(Harry.1970:302)
3 结论
有效的句子应在英语写作中予以重视。结合独立子句和从属子句的多样性会写出更有说服力的句子。当然, 句子多样性必须服从于写作的内容和目的。过多地增加逗号和从句会让读者感到厌烦。
摘要:英文写作中, 如何有效地传递想要表达的思想?掌握独立子句和从属子句, 可以丰富句子的表现形式, 增加可读性, 将意志与思想向读者表达清楚。错误地使用子句, 会使句子里的成分逻辑关系混乱。当然, 要避免过多地关注句子的多样性而忽视了写作的内容和目的。
