在大学英语写作中,与语法学问有关的标点错误主要有:

 

(1) 把非限制性定语从句(non -restrictive attributive clause) 了解成限制性定语从句(restrictive attributive clause) 而疏忽用逗点。如:

 

〔错误〕7. We were led into a nearest fabric shop that was divided into two parts.

 

从句意来看,上句是一个非限制性定语从句,故应在shop 后加逗点,把that 相应改成which 即:

 

〔修正〕7. We were led into a nearest fabric shop , which was divided into two parts.

 

(2) 不管状语从句在整个句子中处于何种位置,一概以逗点隔开。

 

〔错误〕8. We will go there , if it is fine tomorrow.

 

状语从句可置于句首或句末。置于句首时,普通要用标点隔开;而置于句末时,则无需与主句隔开,故 以上句子应改为:

 

〔修正〕8. If it is fine tomorrow , we will go there. 或We will go there if it is fine tomorrow.

 

(3) 在疑问句方式的陈说句后运用问号。

 

〔错误〕9. What fun we girls could expect , to stay in the same class , studying for four long years with them ?I wondered.

 

〔修正〕9. What fun could we girls expect , to stay in the same class , studying for four long years with them , I wondered.

 

英语疑问除可用问号来表达外,尚可用词序加以表达。故上例的疑问可用逗点表示。

 

(4) 误把however ,therefore , because , thus 等起联络作用的副词当成并列连词,招致写作中的逗号粘连(comma splice) 错误。

 

〔错误〕10. She thought what the teacher pointed out was right , however , she didn’t care for that .

 

两个完好的句子或两个并列句之间不能一概用逗点点开, 可用句号、分号或在逗点后加并列连词(and , but , or , for , so , nor , yet) 等办法修正。

 

故上例可改为:

 

〔修正〕10. She thought what the teacher pointed out was right . However , she didn’t care for that .或She thought what the teacher pointed out was right ; however , she didn’t care for that .或She thought what the teacher pointed out was right , but she didn’t care for that .

 

(5) 与comma splice 相映成趣的是,许多学生作文时,极少思索句子间的逻辑关系,一个逗点连首尾,招致大量熔句(fused sentence) 的堆砌。例如:

 

〔错误〕11. Young men like blue jeans they wear them all the time.

 

〔修正〕11. Young men like blue jeans ; they wear them all the time.

 

或Young men like blue jeans. They wear them all the time.

 

或Young men like blue jeans , and they wear them all the time.

 

或Young men like blue jeans ; they wear them all the time.

 

或Since young men like blue jeans , they wear them all the time.

 

(6) 两个并列的形容词间以and 替代逗点。

 

〔错误〕12. Through the window , in front of me were large green fields which reminded me of the small clearing where I spent my lonely and hard childhood.

 

现代英语表达普通在两个形容词中间不运用and , 而是用逗点分隔。

 

〔修正〕12. Through the window , in front of me were large green fields which reminded me of the small clearing where I spent my lonely , hard childhood

 

因语体错位而形成的标点错误。英文写作是一种口语的输出。其口语体的特征请求其与口头语相区别。口语中存在的大量缩约 (contraction) 在口语体中应尽量防止。而许多学生在书面作文中大量运用省字号(’),简直1/ 3 左右的作文在文体上存在破绽,现代英语的开展对此却难以容忍。如:

 

1. I’d like to share my joys with you. ( I would like to)

 

2. You can’t behave like that . (You cannot)

 

3. There’re so many splendid toys for me to select . (There are)
