及物动词和不及物动词
在改错题目中,经常会出现混淆及物动词和不及物动词,
(1) 不及物动词后面必须要加上介词,比如go Guangzhou(到广州去),这样表达是不对的,必须改为 go to Guangzhou
(2) 而及物动词后面不能随意加上介词,因为及物动词后面可以直接接名词
比如 find the mistake (寻找错误) , 不应该说 find for the mistake
例题:
(1)
What makes for human skeleton hard and strong is the presence of the metallic element calcium.
应改为:human
解释:make是及物动词,直接加宾语,for是多余的
词汇:skeleton: 骨骼, metallic: 金属的, calcium: 钙
(2)

应改为:to be a / a.
解释:及物动词prove可直接加名词或不定式作宾语
词汇:situation comedy: 情景喜剧, durable: 持久的, format: 形式
