7、[誤] My father likes swimming and to collect stamps.
[正] My father likes swimming and collecting stamps.
[析] 由并列連詞連接的兩個部分要保持相等的語法結(jié)構(gòu)。如是動名詞則都用動名詞,如用不定式則都應(yīng)用不定式,這是初學(xué)者要注意的一點(diǎn)。
8、[誤] My father is reading a newspaper, I am doing my homework.
[正] My father is reading a newspaper while I am doing my homework.
[析] 兩個并列句中間不可用逗號連接,要用并列連詞來連接。
9、[誤] My father asked me that if I wanted to learn how to drive.
[正] My father asked me if I wanted to learn how to drive.
[析] 賓語從句的連接詞只能有一個不能重復(fù)使用。
10、[誤] We will go both to Beijing and Shanghai.
[正] We will go to both Beijing and Shanghai.
[析] 用both…and…作連接詞時,其相連接的部分結(jié)構(gòu)也要相同。
11、[誤] Not only Mary but also her brothers is going to dance.
[正] Not only Mary but also her brothers are going to dance.
[析] 由not only… but also…連接兩個主語時,其重點(diǎn)在其后面的那一個主語,所以謂語形式應(yīng)采用就近原則。
