正确性错误(Correctives)
1. 逻辑关系的正确性
(1)事物本身不说明问题,要事物的变化说明问题。
Price 不能说明 inflation----price increase
教堂 不能说明 建筑物古老---教堂仍然屹立
佛州 不能说明 经济增长---佛州的就业情况改善
(2)词与词之间的逻辑搭配
l
射线本身可以说invisible radiation, 波长不行 invisible wavelength X
l
人本身可以说blind people, 视力不行 blind eyesight X
l
术语refers to 人,本身不是人
l
城市发展represent 原则,本身不是原则
l
The body was the manX, the body was that of the man
(3)事物不能和自身比较,要把本身排除在外
Than any other
(4)逻辑主语和谓语动词搭配问题
l
分词省略结构
现分 doing 主动
过分 done 被动
不定式要明确动作发出者
l
形容词省略结构
l
当逻辑主语未出现时,主动可以变被动
l
在转折关系中,事物的分类标准必须统一
老人…but 女人X
Big museum…but 综合性museum X
(5)严重损坏 and 彻底摧毁X 应该是or
Prevent and inhibit X
prevent or inhibit 预防或者治疗
(6)句子的修饰顺序不能变,不然强调中心就变了
Detect a condition that is present
不能变成 Detect the presence of a condition
(7)改变原句的合理意思
把when从句改成if 从句X
(8)常识错误
In the Middle Ages, the world is flat.
X
In the Middle Ages, the world is believed to be flat.
(9)导致global warming的不是fossil fuels, 而是burning of fossil fuels
2. 主谓搭配
(1)主语和谓语
l
在英文中永远只有主谓搭配,同位语对谓语动词单复数没有影响
Students each have
Each of the students has
Five hundreds students, a group, each have
l
主语,同位语,谓语
The capital of Bosnia, Sarajevo’s population….
X
中心词population才是主语的同位语,所以错
(2)倒装
There be + A and B
Be 动词的单复数由A决定
介词短语/形容词短语 作表语放句首+系+主
(3)定语从句内部主谓搭配
A of B that 谓语
One of n that 谓语
Only one of n that 谓语
N1 谓语 N2, that
N1 谓语 N2, which
(that 修饰紧跟前面,which 不一定)
(逗号Which 不可以指代前面整个句子,但是可以指代前面句子里的任意一个名词,一般是离逗号最近的那个)
(4)名词性从句和分词短语+单谓
(5)如果原题主语谓语中间插进了很多定语状语,答案可能是把定语状语放到前面,让主语和谓语靠在一起,这样可以make the clause stronger
e.g. Tom, in his books, carefully coordinating the, with his narratives, capitalized…
In his books, which she carefully coordinated with her narratives, Tom capitalized…
(6)A 介/连 +谓
l
随后原则
Not only, but also
Not…but
Neither…nor…
Either…or
Nor
Or
l
随前原则
A of B + 谓语
所有其他不是随后原则的
A with B,
A as well as B,
be integral to A and B…
A, including B
A, together/along with B
A, no less than/more than B
A besides B
A except B
l
看of 后面的名词决定
Part/most/some/all/分数百分比/the rest of +n+谓语
l
复数动词
Ø
A and B, 无论A和B是可数还是不可数
Ø
A total of +复数n
Ø
An average of
An average of 12 persons come…
l
单数动词
Ø
完整句子做主语
Ø
news
Ø
表整体性词组
A body/collection/array/series/set/portion/group of +复数n+单数v
例外A total of/an average of复数n+复数v
Ø
物质名词作主语,谓语动词用单数
Equipment, stone, citrus (柑橘), iron, milk, dioxin(OG 有复数dioxins)
Ø
学科名词作主语,谓语动词用单数,但以下两个作特殊含义时例外
Statistics (统计数据), Economics (经济政策) +复数
Ø
The average of
Ø
集体名词
administration, army, audience, class, crowd (一群,一伙), faculty (全体教员), orchestra, team,group.
l
Majority/minority/plurality 作主语
---指整体动词+单数v
---指整体的每一个个体+复数vs
The majority of students in this class are hard workers.
The student majority is opposed to the death penalty. 单数名词+ majority
3. 代词指代
(1)单复数名词的指代问题
(2)人和物的指代错误
(3)同一句话中的代词和不定代词(One/ones)
(4)同一句话中的相同代词(they, them, their) 必须指代相同的词
代词前面出现一个以上的同复数(或单数)的名词,代词指代一定有问题。
(5)代词不能指代一句话,只能指代一个特定的主体
当动作发出者是前面的整句话,即前面整句话对后文的影响
用”新名词/doing”,不能用it/that/which/to do
(6)虽然代词不能指代一句话,但有例外 (It 作形式宾语)
It is + adj + to do/that
(7)代词只能指代中心词,不能指代修饰语,有一个例外:
A of B…, it (可以指代A or B)
(8)代词优先指代句子主语,除非明显看出单复数不一样
(9)特指>泛指
(10)有It, 尽量把它往前放,减少指代歧义。如果放越后面,指代的可能性对象就越多,语义不清。
(11)Jose’s room is so messy that his mother calls him a pig. X
Jose’s room is so messy that his mother calls Jose a pig.
因为第一句的him指代Jose’s, 不符合题意
(12)代词不能指代“插入语”中的名词,因为插入语可以随时抽离
, in…,….them
Them 不能指代in的宾语
代词宏观
5个选项同时使用名词和代词,尤其是原题使用了代词,答案一般选把代词换成了名词的选项
4. 固定搭配

5. 对称性
As well as, rather than, not only…but also…, and
(1)形式上对称

主动和被动可以对称
l
省略
前后两个分句都是不定式的时候,后半个分句的”to”可以省略
前后两个分局都有be 动词,后半个分句的 be 可以省略
而且一般把 to, be省略的都是正确答案
l
平行对称
分句1,分句2,分句3 and 分句4
1. 肯定句
and
否定句/选择句
or
两个程度不同的词要用 or 连接 (damage or vanish)
只有出现 no/not才是否定句,(nor/neither/never)都不是
I’ve never been to USA and Australia.
2. 省略
to do A, to do B and to do C
to do A, do B and do C
把 to 改成 can 一样, 要么全有,要么全省
3. 翻着考
句1,句2, and 句 3
X
才逗号不能连接完整的主谓结构,要用分号;
4. 分号前后要是完整的主谓结构
5. the same…as…
(the same to sb as to sb)
6. 副词不能做连词
副词不能够起连词的作用,如 worrying over…, also over…., also是副词,不能够连接两个介词短语。如:its worry concerning…, also concerning…, also不能够起连词的作用,以上两个例子全错
7. 前一分句用to do, 后一分句也尽量用to do
The best way to build a house……, but the most popular method now is to do… (不用that, doing)
The only way to know is to take the plunge.
The only way to know is taking the plunge. X
8. 代词平行排列

I prefer to hire employees who work hard to those who don’t.
9. include 前后含义对称
The production of new cells includes the brain growing in mice. X
The production of new cells includes the brain growth in mice.
(2)含义上对称
a. 动作性名词-----动作性名词
Duty assignment and the staffing of people (不是the staff)
动作性名词
The onset, the assignment, the staffing, the splitting apart (裂开)
动词ing前面加the 就变成名词
b. 两个句子用and连接,最好主语一致
To Ann, Paris is her home and she remained in France during WWII.
Ann made Paris her home and she remained in France during WWII.
6. 省略原则
(1)两个句子并列,第一个句子含有be动词或者become,第二个句子中的be动词或者become必须省略,同时,一些重复的名词或形容词也必须省略。
例如:Once the economic and social usefulness of the motor car was demonstrated and its superiority to the horse proved, …(proved前省略了was).
(2)习惯性省略
As needed/planned/required/scheduled
Whenever necessary/needed/possible
Wherever necessary/needed/possible than ever
Than before/ever before/usual/expected/predicted/estimated/anticipated
Consider sth sth/adj
Prove adj
(3)一句话中尽量避免重复使用同一个词
…through their being lifted by a chain drive through…X
(4)动词的省略,只能是do V---do
不能是are doing---are, have done---have
e.g. The wines are priced to sell and they (wines) do---确实卖了.
严重的有效性错误 (serious effectiveness)=correctives
(1)严重违反了原文的意思
l
极端性修饰词位置发生改变
First, last, only
(only you---you only)
Only 和all 的修饰位置不能随意改变(原文修饰谁,选项应该还修饰谁)
Primarily从句中放到开头
l
强烈预期的添加或丢失
Any, not unlike (非常喜欢) , however, whatever, wherever
e.g. I don’t know student in the class 不等于 I don’t know any student in the class.
l
Must不能用should 代替, Will 不能用may 代替
原文情态动词不能改变.
若在题中的划线部分(即A选项)中发现情态动词,那么在最后的正确答案中必须有些情态动词或类似语气的词出现。
原文没有as if (though),选项不能有as if (though)
l
句子强调重心发生了一个彻底的改变
(1) 把句子的主干变成从属
主语改变
(2) 把句子的从属变成主干
e.g. 把状语从句 变成 一个独立的句子(where/when/that---and)
She has a house where many parties are held.
She has a house and many parties are held there. X
It is a work that…and that critic Sam pronounces it the greatest novel.
It is a work that… and critic Sam pronounces it the greatest novel. X
l
把倒装句变为正常语序一定错
如果原句是倒装,BCDE全是改成正常语序,一定选A
l
如果原句是正常语序,也不要轻易改成倒装句,awkward and confusing
l
介词/so/极端性词+… 倒装
(2)简洁原则
语义重复-----严重
From….up/down to
不能加up/down
Double-----increase
Opposition---against
Orbit---around
Gain---achieve
Superiority---over
Annual---a year
By the name of---be known as
With---by---include---use
Rise---raise---increase---grow---soar
Now---currently
The possibility that…might do (应该去掉might)
amount to a sum
substitute and in place of
once in every [number] [time]
increase/decrease and up to/down to
be explained---because
e.g the phenomenon is explained not just because…,but also because…X
the phenomenon is incurring not just because…,but also because…
No matter how 应该改成
however
With sth included (with和included重复)
Withhold---disclosure
Seem---like
be able to/ability and afford
consequence and result
can and potentially(can, potentially,…is right)
share the same
return back
although and may
no less than/nothing other than(在完全美有比较的情况下赤裸裸的出现在名次前)
pay and payment
enable---be able to
same---exact
rarely---ever
sum---total
academic---in school
ensure---must
while---simultaneously
though---yet/but
other than what it is ----precisely the opposite
sufficient---enough
include---among them
2. 一个句子里面连续两个that引导的从句, 去掉一个that, 可改成to do
e.g. They have found evidence that suggests that the elephants….
They have found evidence to suggest that the elephants….
3. not any一定会被no替代;
that which一定会被what替代;
having been done会被done(限定词)所替代。
不严重的有效性错误 (light effectiveness)
(1)轻微违反了原文的意思
l
弱语气的添加或者丢失
Just,even
As he do, I am a student.
1. As he is, I am a student.
2. Just as he is, I am a student
3. Like him, I am a student
l
以下不可以随意替换
Only if---if
However much---however
Should---if
Be like---be not unlike
If---on condition that
n---any +n
like---just like
以下可以替换
May---might
l
句子的强调重心发生轻微的改变
主动---被动
状语(即修饰成分)的位置发生改变

分词,动名词>从句
重复性v---政府法令----现在分词
一次性v---定语从句

Differ>have difference
Idealize>ideal
l
在表示”是否”的时候,whether>if

That/which 的区别
l
That+限制性定语从句
That 前不能加介词,要紧跟名词,不能跳跃修饰
l
Which+非限制性定语从句

(5)n that ….v …如果that 后面的修饰语太长,则可以将that 放到v后面
A new type of jet engine is being tested that could eventually propel aircraft anywhere in the world。
(2)时态
同一句话中现在时,过去式不能混用
出现before, after, once等代表事件顺序的词,前后分句的时态要不同
e.g. They want to see whether tourists will continue to visit game parks to see rhinoceroses once the animals’ horns have been trimmed.
考单一时态
l
一般现在时
客观规律,真理
科研成果和统计资料
l
一般过去式

(5)Rate
l
Rate 和rate 比,不可以和 wage 比
l
Rate 和 high/low 搭配, 不可以和prevalent 搭配

当中,动词改成现在分词作伴随状语是典型的错误
(7)like A, B do--------A和B必须是同类事物,A 必须是和主句中的主语对应,不能和谓语对应

1. 有There be 的比较,两个there be 都要写出

主语相同时,可以省略第二个主语

(13)to do sth is to do sth
Doing sth is doing sth
Sth is sth
(14)without (高分标志)
l
Without
+ 名词/doing
中间不能插任何修饰语(例如any)

l
相对简洁,尽量使用
l
强烈语气表达
Without 原文中通常没有,但通过判断句子语气需要加强,就加
(15)倒装

Predict that 后面不跟虚拟语气+will do
It is urgent/vital/essential/necessary/important/imperative/better/preferable that….

In order to/To do sth, sb would have to do sth
