35、片断句。一个合乎语法的完整句子必须具有主语和谓语这两种 基本成分。从结构上来说，它应该是可以独立运用的语言单位。片断句是指像短语、从句、 同位语以及其他诸如此类不能够独立使用的语言单位。写作时若错误地使用标点符号将-_这类不能独立使用的语法结构当成句子分列出来，那便叫做片断句，练习中的第 1、第 3 和第 4 句就是这样的非完整句，即片断句。 The runon sentence:误用逗号连接句。该断句的地方没有正确地使用标点符号断句，而将 两个或两个以上结构上各自独立完整而又互不从属的句子融合在一起成为一个不合语法、 结构松散的句子称融合句。如果两个完整的句子中间只用逗号隔开而被错误地并成一
36、个句 子，这种句子便叫误用逗号连接句，练习中的第 2 句即是。The dangling modifier：垂悬修 饰语。由非谓语动词(分词、动名词、不定式)组成的短语若使用不当，与其所修饰的成分 没有实质上的联系，这种结构便叫垂悬修饰语。垂悬修饰语并非语法上的错误，只是修辞 上的毛病，但仍应避免使用这样的结构，尤其是不要使用那些会产生歧义、引起误解的垂 悬修饰语。练习中的第 5、6、7、8 句均含垂悬修饰语。 The illogical or faulty parallelism：误用平行句法。误用平行句法指用平行结构来表达并非平 行的思想内容。这是应该避免的修辞上的毛病。不能将 which
37、或 who 引导的从句用 and 与 主句相联。关联连词(bothand，eitheror 等)只能用于联接句中起同一语法作用的平行成 分。练习中的第 9、10、11、12 句都是误用平行结构的例句。 The shift in point of view：角度转换。不必要的甚至错误的角度转换是应该避免的。若非必 须如此。一般不由主动语态转换成被动语态。人称及单复数也不应随便转换。练习中的第 13、14、15 句都是角度转换的例子。练习中的错句可改正如下： The basketball game was canceled because half of the players were in b
