英语写作的“结构重组”(二)
先准备语言信息:抬头一看:look up;衣衫褴褛的孩子:children in rags;默默:silently;观看:look at .最后范文是:Looking up, I saw that we were surrounded by children in rags who were looking at us as we ate .(新概念3 第48课line35-36)
分析:
范文用到了现在分词作伴随状语(looking up),主动意思由被动形式表达,(were surrounded by)并设计出一个定语从句来(who were looking at us as we ate)原文中看不出来定语的痕迹。
对策
含有多个动词的句子,将动词进行主次区分,次要动词非谓语化,主要动词谓语化,附带从句设计,定语从句首当其冲现行被考虑。
总之,写句子时,不要立马下手,凝神定气,多三思,在结构安排上有所建树和创新,大胆
将信息重组,结构优化,力图写出地道的英文句子,这是个长期的功夫。
最后建议学员可将新概念2,3 册拿来做汉译英的练习,将每篇课文的中文译文试着翻译成英文,再与原文对照,个中差距,一对照即晓个清楚。
