※ 引述《kfsfat (kfsfat)》之铭言:
: 这是我的文章..麻烦大家了
: Recalling the first time used computers in elementary school at age of 11,
: it becomes an essential implement in my daily life till right now.
有几个地方要注意上下句的主词、时态一致性
"used... becomes" 过去式->现在式
可以改用完成式
Since + I used... (过去发生的事) + it has become...
"till right now"已经包含在 since的意思里面了 可以精简掉
"computers... it" 复数->单数
建议用"the" computer 用一个电脑代替所有的电脑
"Recalling... it" 上句没有主词,是一个dependent clause (subordinate clause)
用来形容下句的主词。
但是在进行"recall"这个动作的人是你,不是 it (computer)
整句可以改成
"Since the first time I used the computer in elementary school at the age of 11,
it has become an essential implement in my daily life."
: Computers, doubtless, plays an important role as people pursue more and more
: knowledge as well as the development of the modern technology.
^^^不加定冠词
另外,"plays a role in..." 也是一个常用的句法
例句: "Computers play an important role in our pursuit of knowledge and
the development of modern technology."
: Through the computer, connecting to the Internet, it is not easy
: to image how wonderful this virtual world is.
imagine
: Entering the website of Wikipedia, google, and so on, you can search whatever
^^^^^^
这边要用search for
search (location) for (object)
search Google for information
: you desperately want to figure out. For engineers, it also useful for their
^is
: tedious researches which need complicated calculations even more simulations.
^and
: By the efficiency of the computer which helps people to deal with the
: questions, it fulfils our technologic aspiration (desire, wish).
: PS(上面空格我不知道要用哪个单字比较好,麻烦指教)
这样写法有点乱 写科英尽量使用简单有条理的句子就好
比较不容易出错,也比较好读
"The efficiency of computers helps us (to) deal with our questions, and
fultils our desire for technology."
: Finally, the development of the computer is faster and faster. It does not
: only let us gain the information and the knowledge, but also brings us to the
^^^ ^^^两个都不加定冠词
: future world. It is nothing to say that computer surely occupies an important
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^不太懂这里意思
: position in our daily lifes.
"occupies... position" 感觉好像太literal 像是说有一个实体的地点
最後这句其实就说
"Surely, the computer has an important place in our everyday lives."
这样简单就可以了。
