留學(xué)加拿大英語(yǔ)考試托福寫(xiě)作這些詞的用法你真的懂了么

加拿大留學(xué)托?？荚?，非母語(yǔ)寫(xiě)作很多時(shí)候=做（顱內(nèi)）翻譯。翻譯水平越高，我們的思想就能越不打折扣地傳遞給接收者。但是在語(yǔ)言水平有限的情況下，就會(huì)鬧出一些笑話而不自知。比如“有聲讀物”在同學(xué)們筆下會(huì)變成sound book（幫助小孩識(shí)別聲音的書(shū)），而本來(lái)我們尋找的是“audio book”。加拿大托福

所以就會(huì)出現(xiàn)明明思路沒(méi)問(wèn)題（甚至很精彩），分?jǐn)?shù)卻遲遲提不上去。原因很簡(jiǎn)單。想象中的文章是栩栩如生有血有肉，考官看到的卻是奇奇怪怪（甚至有些inappropriate）的四不像。

好在，鑒于大部分同學(xué)們的主動(dòng)語(yǔ)料庫(kù)并不是很大，可以犯錯(cuò)的空間也是有限的，并且很多錯(cuò)誤是常見(jiàn)的。如果經(jīng)常總結(jié)，可以有效地減少文章的錯(cuò)誤提高從而language use板塊的得分。經(jīng)過(guò)整理，我們會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)，常錯(cuò)單詞本身并不難（都認(rèn)識(shí)），難的是用對(duì)。

我們之前整理過(guò)一批被同學(xué)們反復(fù)用錯(cuò)的詞和短語(yǔ)：10個(gè)考生9個(gè)用錯(cuò)，這些托福寫(xiě)作易錯(cuò)詞到底難在哪？10個(gè)考生9個(gè)用錯(cuò)，這些托福寫(xiě)作易錯(cuò)詞到底難在哪？

“the”的過(guò)度使用

錯(cuò)誤：First,accepting the criticism helps people improve their weaknesses,which makes them better in the group work.

正確：First,accepting criticism helps people improve their weaknesses,which makes them better in group work.

錯(cuò)誤：Firstly,creating jobs for unemployed workers reduces the crime rate.To be specific,the government can offer some jobs such as carrying the block and building the infrastructures for the workers.

正確：Firstly,creating jobs for unemployed workers reduces crime rate.To be specific,the government can offer some jobs such as carrying blocks and building infrastructure for workers.

解析：上面的兩個(gè)例子都是從同學(xué)們的作業(yè)當(dāng)中摘抄的，在你作業(yè)中見(jiàn)過(guò)無(wú)數(shù)的例子不該用the的時(shí)候用了the。冠詞的使用一直是中國(guó)學(xué)生的一大難點(diǎn)，即便是對(duì)于advanced learner來(lái)說(shuō)，也經(jīng)常會(huì)犯錯(cuò)。但是，記住一些基本的規(guī)則還是能夠避免大多數(shù)的錯(cuò)誤。The的使用主要三種情況：特指，固定搭配，專有名詞。如果不屬于這三種，就大膽放棄。

interested/interest/interesting

“感興趣的科目”

錯(cuò)誤：interested subjects

正確：subjects we are interested in/subjects that interest us

解析：interested邏輯主語(yǔ)是“人”。中文“感興趣的東西”，可以用interest的動(dòng)詞形式：sth.interests me。

affordable

“我能買得起這輛車。”

錯(cuò)誤：I am affordable the car.

正確：This car is affordable for me.

正確：I can afford this car.

解析：affordable本身含義包含了被動(dòng)-“able to be afforded”，所以只能用來(lái)跟隨可以被購(gòu)買的物品，所以”I am affordable”就是把自己當(dāng)成了商品……

accessible

錯(cuò)誤：And children are more accessible to education.

正確：Education is more accessible for children./Children can access education more easily.

解析：這兩個(gè)詞的意思都是“容易接近的，容易獲得的”，與affordable類似，用來(lái)修飾可以獲得的東西。

Prefer

錯(cuò)誤：Specifically,everyone prefers to contact open-minded and easy-going teammates.

正確：Specifically,everyone likes to contact open-minded and easy-going teammates.

解析：例句中把Prefer當(dāng)作“喜歡”來(lái)使用。Prefer的字典釋義里的確有“like”的意思，但是是有比較級(jí)的--“to like better or best”。當(dāng)有上下文的時(shí)候，對(duì)比另一方可以省略。當(dāng)時(shí)單獨(dú)表示“喜歡”不能使用。

Lead to

錯(cuò)誤：Some people who receive criticism would not like to change themselves,which leads people who give suggestions to be upset.

正確：Some people who receive criticism would not like to change themselves,which makes people who give suggestions upset.

解析：lead to當(dāng)中的to是介詞，所以不能跟“to do”（雖然按照中文翻譯-“讓某人生氣”-很順滑）。

because of vs because

錯(cuò)誤：Because children are fast learners.

正確：This is because children are fast learners.

解析：Because不能單獨(dú)引導(dǎo)句子，只能引導(dǎo)從句。

錯(cuò)誤：We canceled our date because of the weather was terrible.

正確：We canceled our date because the weather was terrible.OR We canceled our date because of the terrible weather.

解析：because of后面不能跟句子。托福寫(xiě)作

Easy

“他們很容易找到工作”

錯(cuò)誤：They are easy to find jobs.

正確：They can find jobs easily.

解析：”容易”修飾的是“找工作”這個(gè)動(dòng)作而非“人”。同理，hard，difficult等詞同學(xué)們經(jīng)常會(huì)出現(xiàn)修飾錯(cuò)位，錯(cuò)因是做了點(diǎn)對(duì)點(diǎn)的翻譯而忽略了英文固有的規(guī)則。
