（高考英語作文煉句）第16篇譯文老師筆記

PAGEPAGE11.那些支持學(xué)校把學(xué)生的能力作為錄取依據(jù)的人們認(rèn)為：如果學(xué)校錄取過程成為一個"能力擇優(yōu)”的過程,這樣可以引入一些競爭因素,從而激勵一些學(xué)生更加努力.他們還指出一個事實：如果尖子生與落后生混合在一起,授課就很難步調(diào)一致.最有才華的學(xué)生會覺得課程太容易,而墊底的學(xué)生卻很吃力.Thosewhosupportschoolsadmittingstudents

()但鑒于美聯(lián)儲設(shè)立了貨幣規(guī)則,而國際貨幣基金組織根據(jù)自己的預(yù)測給眾多國家建議,這肯定算是次嚴(yán)重失敗.

替換表達：accordingto/basedon

學(xué)生錯誤表達：(1)

somethingasabasis的表達.(2)

take...as

admissionbasis點評：搭配不當(dāng),admission不可以與basis搭配,這里應(yīng)該改為admitstudentsonthebasis

of…

2-meritocracy范例中給出的句子中,makingtheschoolselectionprocessameritocracy作introduces的主語,其中make為動詞,theschoolselectionprocess是賓語,a

替換表達：asmallamountof

4-strugglestruggle和我們中文所說的"奮斗、拼搏”不同,它在英文中含有比較負(fù)面的意味,通常指在艱苦困難中的"掙扎”.

替換表達：finditdifficulttocatchup

學(xué)生錯誤表達：(1)

feel

difficult點評：中式表達,沒有feel

difficult的說法,一般是finditdifficulttodosomething(2)

thinkithard

點評：搭配不當(dāng),thinkit

hard的常見搭配是thinkithardtodosomething,thinkithard不能單獨使用.

Q：anelementof一些,和some一些有什么區(qū)別呢?如何分辨其中的區(qū)別?A：anelementof后面一般接抽象內(nèi)容,比如competition/truth等,some后面一般接具體內(nèi)容,比如somestudents/schools等.

Q：指出事實,是不是應(yīng)該使用pointout?詞典中

pointto的意思是指向,朝向,向某人指出.A：pointtothefactthat…是一個常見說法,例如朗文詞典例句：Otherexperts

pointtothe

factthat

evenspecialistsarelosingjobs.

Thosewhosupportschoolsadmittingstudentsonthebasis

harder.

[分析]本句是一個主謂賓結(jié)構(gòu),其主干為Those…believe(that)…,其中,主語部分為Thosewhosupport

schoolsadmittingstudentsonthebasisoftheirability,這里who引導(dǎo)的定語從句修飾Those,在這個定語從句中,who為關(guān)系代詞,作主語,指代those,謂語為support,賓語為schoolsadmittingstudentson

thebasisoftheirability,這是一個含有邏輯主語的現(xiàn)在分詞短語.believe之后是一個省略了that的名詞性從句,作believe的賓語.在這個賓語從句中,makingtheschoolselectionprocessameritocracy是主語,其中,theschoolselectionprocess是making的賓語,ameritocracy是賓語的補足語,introduces是賓語從句中的謂語,anelementofcompetitionwhichmotivatessomestudentstotry

harder是賓語從句中的賓語,其中又包含了一個which引導(dǎo)的定語從句,修飾competition.

2.在學(xué)生完全成熟之前就把他們分隔到不同學(xué)校是很不公平的.孩子們通常都沒意識到努力學(xué)習(xí)的重要性,而且很多人處于一個困難的家庭環(huán)境中,在這種環(huán)境里面,努力學(xué)習(xí)是不被鼓勵的.有些孩子在還沒明白過來的情況下就發(fā)現(xiàn)自己已經(jīng)不可避免地踏上了通往平庸的道路.Segregatingstudentsintodifferentschools

foodandblanketstotherefugees.

數(shù)以千計的士兵正在給難民們分發(fā)食物和毯子.不可以用在指將學(xué)生分到不同的學(xué)校.(2)

學(xué)生錯誤表達：(1)

thewayto

theroad

tonormal/common點評：搭配錯誤,theroadto后面應(yīng)該接名詞,不能接形容詞.

Q：我認(rèn)為第一點,將學(xué)生分隔到不同學(xué)校Segregatingstudentsintodifferentschools,用"divide”是不是更好一點.A：不能用divide,dividestudentsintodifferentschools含義是"將學(xué)生分隔為不同的學(xué)校”,這里應(yīng)該改為segregatestudentsintodifferentschools(將學(xué)生分隔到不同的學(xué)校).

3.網(wǎng)絡(luò)課程一直被指責(zé)膚淺,和正規(guī)大學(xué)體驗相比只是劣質(zhì)的替代品.批評者指出盯著電腦屏幕根本不能和豐富的校園生活和活躍的課堂辯論相提并論.此外,有人指出這些課程的輟學(xué)率非常之高,在很多例子中高于90%.Onlinecourseshavebeen

學(xué)生錯誤表達：(1)

regular點評：regular是指"普通的,尋常的”,例如：Herregularsecretarywasoffsickforaweek.她平時的秘書生病了,休假一周.regular沒有"正規(guī)的”這一層含義.(2)

official點評：official側(cè)重于強調(diào)"官方的”,這與proper(正規(guī)的、恰當(dāng)?shù)?有所不同.

Q：請問這句話中onlinecourses是復(fù)數(shù),為什么用apoorsubstitute?謝謝!A：主語和賓語并不一定要嚴(yán)格按照"復(fù)數(shù)-復(fù)數(shù)”的形式,"復(fù)數(shù)-單數(shù)”也可以,例如朗文例句：Thegovernment’seducationalreforms

[分析]本句是一個被動句,主語是Onlinecourses,謂語是havebeencondemned,其后asshallowandapoorsubstituteforaproper

universityexperience是主語補足語,對Onlinecourses的特點進行說明,一是shallow,二是apoorsubstituteforaproperuniversity

experience.逗號之后是一個獨立主格結(jié)構(gòu),構(gòu)成形式是"介詞+名詞+現(xiàn)在分詞”,作伴隨狀語,這里that引導(dǎo)一個名詞性從句,作pointingout的賓語,在該賓語從句中,staringatacomputerscreen是主語,canhardlycompare是謂語,tovibrantcampuslifeorlivelylecturehall

debates是狀語,表明作比的對象.
