【文章內(nèi)容簡(jiǎn)介】 書(shū)。Chinglish: I very like reading books.Revision: I like reading books very much.(2) 每天早上我七點(diǎn)起床。Chinglish: I every morning seven o’clock get up.Revision: I get up at seven o’clock every morning. Obviously, Chinglish sentences are in wrong word orders that are the same with Chinese. The structure of Chinese is S+adv.+V+O while the English one is S+V+O+adv..(3) 飛機(jī)從北京起飛。Chinglish: The plane from Beijing take off.Revision: The plane takes off from Beijing.(4) 昨天和同學(xué)們踢球了。Chinglish: I yesterday with my classmates played football.Revision: I played football with my classmates yesterday.Chinese people emphasize on the process while westerners pay more attention to the result. As a result, the English people often put the result or the more important information before the process or the less important information. In addition, orders of persons are often put in wrong orders by Chinese people. For instance:(5) 星期天，我，李明還有李華一塊去圖書(shū)館。Chinglish: I, Li Ming and Li Hua are going to the liberary this Sunday.Revision: Li Ming, Li Hua and I are going to the liberary this Sunday.(6) 王明跟我應(yīng)該對(duì)這事負(fù)責(zé)。Chinglish: Wang Ming and I should be blamed.Revision: I and Wang Ming should be blamed. Generally speaking, “I” is put after other people in English. However, when responsibility or mistake is to be taken or admitted, “I” must be placed before others.(7) 他想到一個(gè)好主意。Chinglish: He came up a good idea.Revision: A good idea struck him. (8) 報(bào)紙報(bào)道他將在上海舉辦音樂(lè)會(huì)。Chinglish: The newspaper reported that he is going to have a concert in Shanghai.Revision: It is reported that he is going to have a concert in Shanghai. Object is usually the study target of western people, while subject is considered more by Chinese. That is to say, the person is the subject in China but the matter is used as subject in English. (9) 我的地址是上海市北京路2號(hào)大街。Chinglish: My adress is Shanghai Beijing Road No. 2.Revision: My adress is No. 2 Beijing Road, Shanghai . (10) 我來(lái)自山東省煙臺(tái)市。Chinglish: I am from Shangdong province, Yantai. Revision: I am from Yantai, Shandong . Places are generally put from the small one to the bigger one in English countries. On the contrary, they are put from the big one to the smaller one in China. Dangling ModifierDangling modifier is one of the most mon Chinglish problems in sentence structure. They are phrases or clauses that function as adjectives or adverbs and that are illogical. They are not because of faulty placement but because of faulty grammatical relations with other elements in the sentence. Therefore, a change in word order will not suffice to correct them. The writer has to deal with them in other ways. Dangling modifiers in English writing appear frequently in structures as participles, infinitives and prepositional phrases.Examples:(1) 寫(xiě)完作業(yè)后，我打開(kāi)了電視。Chinglish: Having finished the homework,the TVwas turned on.Revision: Having finished the homework,Iturned on the TV. This is a typical Chinglish. “Having finished” is a participle expressing action, but the doer is not the TV set becuse TV sets don39。t finish assignments. Since the doer of the action expressed in the participle has not been clearly stated, the participial phrase is said to be a dangling modifier.(2) 明天下午兩點(diǎn)將在學(xué)校禮堂開(kāi)會(huì)。Chinglish: At 2:00 pm tomorrow in the school hall will hold a meeting.Revision: There will be a meeting at 2:00 pm tomorrow in the school hall.The Chinese sentence is typical of “topic prominence”. “明天下午兩點(diǎn)在學(xué)校禮堂” is the adverbial phrase functioning as the theme or topic rather than subject in the sentence. The real subject “faculty” is hidden in this sentence. The use of “there be” sentence pattern in revision is acceptable in English.(3) 用武力或和平方式，都可能擊敗大部分殘余敵對(duì)勢(shì)力。Chinglish: Using either military or peaceful means, most of the remaining enemy forces were put out of action.Revision: Using either military or peaceful means, we put most of the remaining enemy forces out of action. A participle phrase at the beginning of a sentence must modify the subject of the sentence. The subject of the Chinglish sentence is “most of the remaining enemy forces”, but it is “we” in revision that “use either military or peaceful means”.(4) 再一次上課遲到，書(shū)面檢討必不可少。Chinglish: Having arrived late for class,a written excusewas needed.Revision: Having arrived late for class,the team captainneeded a written excuse.Who arrived late? The Chinglish sentence says that the written excuse arrived late. To revise, it must to be decided who actually arrived late. The main clause now names the person (the team captain) who did the action in the modifying phrase (arrived late). (5) 一進(jìn)校門(mén)就看到很多花。Chinglish: Go into my school, you can see many flowers. Revision: Going into my school, you can see many flowers. The action “go” is done by “you” and there must be only one verb in a sentence. (6) 他又做了一遍實(shí)驗(yàn)以改進(jìn)實(shí)驗(yàn)結(jié)果。Chinglish: To improve his results,the experimentwas done again.Revision: To improve his results,he did the experiment again. Who wanted to improve results? The first sentence says that the experiment was trying to improve its own results. To revise, it is necessary to bine the phrase and the main clause into one sentence. (7) 沒(méi)有考慮仔細(xì)，實(shí)驗(yàn)失敗了。Chinglish: The experimentwas a failure,not having studied carefully.Revision:Theyfailed the experiment,not having studied carefully.The doer of “study carefully” should be someone while in the Chinglish sentence, the subject is “the experiement”, so somebody like “they” are used.(8) 要想學(xué)好英語(yǔ)，大量的練習(xí)是必不可少的。Chinglish: To learn English well, a great deal of practice is necessary.Revision: To learn English well, one needs to have a great deal of practice. In English, the logical subject of nonpredicate verb should be consistent with the subject of the sentence. In this example,
