　　八、词性的使用错误

　　词性错误是最容易犯的错误之一，通常而言，对单词记忆不够全面以及受到汉语的影响等都会造成此类错误的产生。词性的使用错误是指文章中单词的词性用错，主要表现在名词形容词副词以及动词的使用错误上，如把名词错当成动词使用，或者把形容词错当成名词或者该用副词的地方错用了形容词等情况，归纳起来主要涉及三种类型：

 名词与动词的错误使用 ，如： approval — approve ， sale — sell ；  名词与形容词的误用 ，如： medicine — medical/medicinal ， emotion — emotional ；  形容词与副词的误用 ，如： high — highly ， mere — merely 等。这类错误还常出现在 be 以外的系动词后，如： feel badly — feel bad ， grow uneasily — grow uneasy .

　　例 1

　　Ideally, of course, the expression of editorial

　　opinion should be limited on the editorial page

　　and the news articles should be objective

　　— telling the fact as complete as possible.        1.__________

　　该句中complete为形容词，而在该句中它前面所接词为动词tell，必须改为副词形式，故应该将complete改为completely.

　　例2

　　It is a social prejudice that the work of street

　　cleaners is thought to be dirty and shame by       1.__________

　　most people.

　　根据上下可知该句中的系动词be后面必须接形容词，且与前面的dirty并列关系，所以应该将名词shame改为shameful.

　　例3

　　It is true that their work may be dirty, but not

　　necessary shameful. What would our streets      1.__________

　　be like if nobody cleared away the rubbish?

　　该句中shameful为形容词，前面必须使用副词修饰，故应该将necessary改为necessarily.

　　例4

　　Used wise, science may increase our energy and    1.__________

　　food supply, improve our health, expand our joy

　　and extend our lives.

　　该句的完整结构是“if it is used wisely, science may… ”，“wisely”修饰过去分词“used”，表示“使用得当”的意思。所以应该将形容词wise改为副词形式的wisely.
