我最近读了旋元佑老师的英文信 http://0rz.tw/033Zh 我有以下问题想问旋老师，但是目前没有得到回应，我把问题贴到下面 请大家给我一些在英文见解上的主观或是客观的意见(只就英文方面的)谢谢。 1. 在句子"I believe there may be a serious mistake in the book."中，我不太了解 为什麽这个mistake会是如何的serious。我不是希望您解释为什麽，而是说是否应该加一 些句子会更完整? 例如改成"I believe, in this book, there may be a mistake, which is obvious and should not be found in a popular teaching material" 2. "When I looked at the corresponding Explanations, they failed to convince me"，convince的用法跟据 http://www.ldoceonline.com/dictionary/convince 是否要 改成类似 they failed to convince me of the choice 或是改用其他字，例如 I cannot be persuaded by them. 3. "There are two problems with this choice". 我认为第一句话要能给大家这个段落 的方向，是不是在加一些子句会更佳，例如 "This choice has a problem in logical with two reasons." 4. "First, The first sentence of the last paragraph says" 这里有两个first，是 不是不要用第二个first改成 "First, the beginning of the last paragraph says "会 比较好呢? 5. since the first clause (starting “Even though”) is merely a concession. "starting “Even though” "是否要改成"starting with “Even though”" ? 6. "The structure of the last paragraph indicates that the concluding sentence is a summary of the main idea," 是否不需要The structure....较通顺，修 改後如下"In last paragraph, the concluding sentence is a summary of the main idea," 7. "This Explanation necessitates a look at" 和"The logic of the Explanation necessitates a look at"哪个比较通顺呢? 8. "Therefore, the theme of Choice 2 is neither broader nor narrower than that of Choice 1."与"And, the theme of Choice 2 is neither broader nor narrower than that of Choice 1." Therefore和And您认为哪个比较通顺呢? 9. "The first two sentences of paragraph 2 serve as transition that leads to the third:" 是不是serve as transition少了一个 "a"，应该是"serve as a transition"? 10. 请问句中"which is basically what Choice 1 says."，我常看到basically的用法 ，但是我想不透在文法上这个句子中basically是形容谁呢? 11. "Sentence 5 (not sentence 4 as the Explanation says) truly points out a “ significant difference” between the two kinds of arts.t"中，truly我认为改成 "does"比较好，kinds改成types比较好，我的想法正确吗? 12. I’m supposed to start teaching a TOEFL Reading class in Taipei around May 25, 中若是改成"start to teach"或是" I’m supposed to teach"会比较好还是没 差呢? 为什麽好或不好或是真的没有差别吗? 13. "I cannot in good faith tell my students what they see in the Official Guide is correct."，为什麽要用" in good faith"，而且就算是一个小错也不代表说整 本书都是没有价值，我认为只要"I cannot speak loudly that the Official Guide is totally correct in the classroom." or "This Official Guide is not worth to be used in the classroom, if a teacher cannot fully trust it" 14. "If I am mistaken in my interpretations"，我认为改成"If I am mistaken in interpretation of these Explanations in the book"比较好，对吗? 15. 最後 "please enlighten me"是不是错的呢? 根据 http://www.ldoceonline.com/dictionary/enlighten. enlighten後面会加as to/on/about something。 --
