  在托福写作中,固定搭配能为我们的文章增添色彩,下面北外网课小编就为考生分享托福写作固定搭配问题修订,希望对考生有所帮助。
  固定搭配的特点
  适当地使用固定搭配(如固定短语)可以使文章表达流畅、到位,考生应在平时阅读范文或其他材料时,注意摘录一些固定搭配,表明他们的用途范围,并在练习写作中留意固定搭配。当然,记忆一定要准确,特别要注意固定搭配中所使用的词性、词形等。
  固定搭配的案例分析
  1、Original: ...there is no deny that a university or college really offers us great enlightment for students future development and growth.
  Revised: ... there is no denying that a university diploma really offers great opportunities for student's personal growth.
  there is no deny改为固定搭配there is no denying“不可否认”。原句中还存在表达不当的问题,应该是大学文凭给学生们的个人发展提供了很多机会。
  2、Original: Modern technologies have improved today's factories technology and brought pollutions to the minimum.
  Revised: However, with the modern technology, air and noise pollution can be kept to a minimum.
  “降到最低程度”是to a minimum。
  3、Original: If you want to catch the pace of the rhythms of the modern world you had better get ready.
  Revised: If you want to keep pace with the rhythms of the modern world, you had better get up early.
  原句catch up with the pace的搭配是不对的,如果表述“和现在世界的快节奏同步”可以用keep pace with(与…同步)或catch up with(赶上…步伐)。
  4、Original: Every year, Lenovo spends a large amount of money to product environment without regret. By doing this, Lenovo makes a profit at the same time.
  Revised: Every year Lenovo spends a large amount of money on environmental protection while at the same time makes a profit.
  原句中动词spend的词组搭配不正确,spend可以表示“花费钱或时间”。常用的搭配有:spend money on sth./sb.表示“在某人或某事上花钱”;spend time with sb.表示“花时间和某人在一起”;spend time(in)doing sth. 表示“花时间做某事”等。另外,原句有些啰嗦,改后稿用while结构省略了一个句子,使句子更加简洁。
  5、Original: The advertisement as the news inform us the current technologies of a country.
  Revised: The ad informed us of the current technology, solar, available within that country.
  “让某人得知什么消息或事情”,要用inform sb. of sth.,不能直接说inform sb. sth.。
  6、Original: I do admire those people who trust their first intuition for their courage to follow what their hearts believe.
  Revised: I do admire those people who trust their first impressions, for they have the courage to follow their hearts.
