中国学生英语作文常见的错误

中国学生作文中常见的错误：1．标点错误中文与英文的最大区别，在于中文句子是意合，而英文句子则是形合。

例如，中文可以说“他赢了，我们笑了。

”英文则不能说“He won, we laughed.”而是要用连词把两句话连起来，成为“He won, and we laughed.”. 练习：(1) 改错1．It rained all night, the ceiling began to leak.2．He lifted a rock, it fell on his feet.3．She leaped up screaming, a snake was moving toward her.4．Many people lined up at the ticket booth, all the tickets had been sold out.5．The rise in crime is attributed to drug abuse, and organized robbery.6．John Smith, his wife, his two children, and his dog Pluto, were under a pear tree, in the garden.7．The next day, late in the evening, Charles was killed, by a gang of villains.8． A letter, that is written in pencil, is difficult to read. (2) 添上逗号1．“I see my son you are wearing one of my best tiesagain.”2．Rosemary suspected of having murdered her husband was questioned by the police for over three hours. 3．The lady was dressed in gray the color of a pigeon’s feathers.4．It is a sad truth but in this unfriendly world he who cries cries alone.(3) 分号常用在两个或两个以上关系较为密切的分句之间。

下面这些句子，只要添上分号就成立了。

1．The moon went down the stars grew pale.2．One moment he was friendly the next he was indifferent.3．Far into the night he worked as day dawned he sank back into the chair.(4) 引号主要用于直接引语，但也可用于书名或用于要引起人们注意的单词或短语上。

请给下列句子添上引号，同时注意标上其他必要的符号。

1．How do you spell the word Renaissance2．The coach yelled Shoot when the clock had run down to only three seconds.3．He said Alas How foolish I have been2. 搭配问题1．Municipal planners deal chiefly for the physical layout of communities.2．Because of its low cholesterol content, margarine is widely used to substitute from butter.3．Thomas Nast was known primarily for a political cartoonist.4．Compared to other areas, the population of the deserts is sparse.1.模糊。
