  今天小编就给大家带来一篇实用文,曾有人说,在老外眼中句子分3个档次,最好的是nominalization(名词化)的句,其次是被动句、倒装句,最后就主动句。名词化的句子会为自己的

  什么是名词化?

  简单说,名词化即是动词或形容词被用作名词的现象。 比如动词转成名词:discovery→discovery, move→movement, refuse→refusal; 比如形容词转成名词:careless→carelessness, difficult→difficulty, intense→intensity。

  什么情况下,我们需要句子名词化?

  1. 谓语动词的宾语部分 原句:I do not know either what she meant or what he intends.名词化:I do not know either her meaning or his intentions.

  2. 结合被动形式 原句:If people decide without enough persuasive information,...名词化:If a decision is made without enough persuasive information,...

  3. 取代诸如从句中“the fact that”的用法 原句:The fact that I denied what he accused me of impressed the jury.名词化:My denial of his accusations impressed the jury.更好的名词化:a. When I denied his accusations, I impressed the jury. b. In denying his accusations, I impressed the jury.

  4. 名词化部分用在there is/are的后面 原句:We demand that the government stop taxing entertainment.名词化:There is a demand for an end to taxation on entertainment.原句:The floods considerably eroded the land.名词化:There was considerable erosion of the land from the floods.

  哪些是毫无意义的名词化?

  这些我们在托福写作中认为应当使用的名词化,其实是没必要的:

  1. 名词化部分跟在动词后面 原句:The police conducted an investigation into the matter.改后:The police investigated the matter.

  2. 名词化部分作为主语 原句:Our discussion is concerned with a tax cut.改后:We discussed a tax cut.

  3. 连续进行名词化 原句:a. First, she reviewed the evolution of the dorsal fin. b. There was a first a review of the evolution of the dorsal fin.改后:First, she reviewed how the dorsal fin evolved.

  4. 连接部分名词化 原句:Their cessation of hostilities was because of their personnel losses.改后:They ceased hostilities because they lost personnel.原句:The instability of the motor housing did not preclude the completion of the field trials.改后:Even though the motor housing was unstable, the research staff completed the field trials
