非谓语动词在英语六级综合改错里算是一个较为令人头疼的改错类型,它包括不定式、分词、动名词。英语六级改错中主要出现的是非谓语动词和主要谓语动词之间的混淆,具体分为以下两种情况:
① 分词,主要是现在分词和过去分词的误用,如: a puzzled question → a puzzling question ; an exciting girl → an excited girl 等。
② 动词非谓语形式做主语、宾语,有时需要 it 作形式主语或形式宾语。如: This is no good arguing with him.(This → it )
例1
The idea that learn a foreign language is hard 1.__________
work is realized by every student.
分析句子结构可知:the idea是主语;is realized是谓语部分;that引导同位语从句。从句中learn a foreign language是主语,而learn是动词形式,应改为动名词“learning”。
例2
From these unearthed bones scientists are able
to reconstruct the skeleton of the animal and from
the reconstructing skeleton, they can obtain quite 1.__________
a good idea of its appearance.
“reconstructing”表示正在进行的动作,而根据原句可知,“skeleton”本身并不能发出这个动作,而应该为“reconstructed”,意为“the skeleton that is reconstructed”,这是过去分词作为定语。
