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,又比如形容词转成名词:careless->carelessness, difficult->difficulty, intense->intensity。那么什么情况下,我们需要进行名词化呢? A 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. B 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,... C 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. 好的名词化:a. When I denied his accusations, I impressed the jury. b. In denying his accusations, I impressed the jury. D 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. 然而,有些时候,在我们的思维方式中认为理所应当使用“名词化”时,老外认为是没有必要的。比如: A 名词化部分跟在动词后面 原句(名词化“冗余”):The police conducted an investigation into the matter. 改后:The police investigated the matter. B 名词化部分作为主语 (责任编辑:admin) |
