作文中出现过多的简单句会让人觉得单调乏味,句子与句子之间的关系显得松散;而文章中过多地出现复合句又显得累赘,读起来费劲。恰当地运用非谓语动词对简单句和复合句进行转换,不仅句型多样,句子活泼,而且读起来结构紧凑,言简意明。
正确使用非谓语动词
原则一:用不定式作目的状语

原则二:用分词作伴随和方式状语(尤其是现在分词)

原则三:用现在分词作结果状语和原因状语,个别特殊结构也用不定式

We should speak more English. We think it is very important.
→We think it very important to speak more English.
think, consider, find, feel, make+it + adj./ n. +to do
原则六:非谓语动词作状语时,其逻辑主语通常应与主句主语保持一致
To get yourself fully developed, you need to take an active part in all kinds of activities.
Having cleaned the rooms, we began to paint the house.
Blamed for the accident, she left the office without saying a word.
原则七:若强调动作发生在主句谓语动作之前,要用完成式,(可根据情况选用不定式的完成式或现在分词的完成式)
