An incorrect/illogical sentence
Common sentences are as follows:
(1) Incomplete components: This sentence lacks necessary components and its meaning is incomplete.
(2) Repetition of meaning: This kind of sentence means saying a meaning in front and repeating it later, and the meaning is repeated. For example, "I corrected the incorrect typo."
(3) Improper use of words: This kind of sentence is due to the unclear understanding of the meaning and the misuse of synonyms, which leads to the words failing to express the meaning and violates the structural rules of the sentence. For example, "the students warmly welcome the new teacher."
(4) Word order inversion: Word order is the order of words in a sentence, reflecting the position of words in the sentence structure. Every word has its specific position in the language structure. If you leave your position, you will make mistakes in improper word order. For example, "this year's wheat harvest is in sight and the growth is gratifying."
2. Steps to modify sick sentences.
(1) Read the original sentence and find out the original meaning. First of all, we should read the sick sentences carefully and understand their main meaning.
(2) Find the cause and determine the symptoms. Find out the reason of the sick sentence around the main meaning of the sentence and find out what kind of sick sentence it belongs to.
(3) suit the remedy to the case and modify the ill sentences. After finding out the reason, we should think about what to delete, what to add and what to replace according to the problems in the sentence, and then start to modify the sick sentence.
(4) Check carefully and complete the exercise. Read the revised sentence to see if it is correct and whether it retains the original meaning of the sentence.
3. Methods of modifying ill sentences.
(1) When modifying a sentence with incomplete components, the most important thing is to know which part is missing. For example, "Sing loudly." This sentence lacks the basic component "who", so the meaning of the sentence is not clear. The method of revision is to make up this part and change it to: "Students sing loudly."
(2) To modify a sentence with repetitive meaning, the most important thing is to understand which part of the meaning is redundant. For example, "I corrected the incorrect typo." Obviously, "incorrect" repeats the meaning of "typo". The way to correct it is to remove one of "incorrect" or "typo" and keep one as: "I corrected the incorrect word." Or: "I corrected the typo."
(3) The most important thing to modify a sentence with improper words is to find out which words are improper and the nature of the errors (wrong synonyms, improper scope, improper collocation of words). For example, "Xiaogang cherishes time." "Cherish" is to cherish and protect. It is not appropriate to use it in front of "time", but it can be changed to "cherish" (meaning to value but not spoil) and become: "Xiaogang cherishes time very much."
(4) The most important thing is to find out which word is in the wrong position, such as: "We discussed and listened to the headmaster's report." After reading the sentence, you can find that the order of discussing the report before listening to it is wrong. You must listen to the report before discussing it, which becomes: "We listened to and discussed the headmaster's report."
