中考英语短文改错考点·句法错误

1. 并列连词的混用

(1) The world was known to man

and the universe was not. (广元市中考题)

【说明】根据行文逻辑，表示并列关系的and 应改为表示转折关系的but。

(2) Coustean was very interested in diving deep into the sea,

but wanted to be an explorer. (杭州市中考题)

(3) They would never refuse to help people in trouble,

but they would give them food and water. (重庆市中考题)

【说明】根据行文逻辑，表示表示转折关系的but 应改为表示并列关系的and。

((4) He has been to many interesting places in Beijing,

and he has not yet been to many other parts of China. (杭州市中考题)

((5) “So something must be done to keep the air nice

or clean,” said the scientists. (苏州市中考题)

But I have brought a wolf for you besides the chicken.” (郴州市中考题)

【说明】根据行文逻辑，表示表示转折关系的But 应改为表示因果关系的So。

2. 连接词的用法错误

这类错误考查句子与句子之间的关系。连接词的使用错误往往会使句子的逻辑关系发生改变，甚至造成句子的语义逻辑混乱。要想把这类错误纠正出来，需要考生对上下文有总体的理解，头脑中有个大概的框架。如

(1) They had a wonderful train ride to Chengdu

after they went on to Mount Emei by bus. (杭州市中考题)

【说明】根据句子的意思将after改为before，表示“他们坐汽车去峨眉山之前，愉快地坐火车先到了成都”。

(2) The result is that they eat a light breakfast, they will work better. (镇江市中考题)

【说明】在 that 后增加if 或when 。在表语从句that if / when they eat a light breakfast, they will work better中，包含有if或when引导的状语从句，修饰句子they will work better。句子翻译成：(实验) 结果是如果他们少量地吃点早餐，会工作得更出色。

(3) It’s different from

how people think. (镇江市中考题)

【说明】将how 改为what，what people think是一个宾语从句，疑问代词what在从句中充当宾语，有“……的”之意。
