《美国文学教程》中的若干语法表达问题(02) 挑刺书名:《美国文学教程》 出版单位:南开大学出版社 书 号:ISBN 7-310-00751-4 出版时间:1995年8月第1版 ■6. It was at this critical moment that the Constitutional Convention held in Philadelphia in May, 1787, during which fifty-five delegates wrote a wholly new Constitution, instead of revising the Articles of Confederation as called by the Continental Congress.(第26页第11-15行) 问题:显然,the Constitutional Convention held in Philadelphia 应改为被动语态 the Constitutional Convention was held in Philadelphia。 ■7. After the purchase of Louisiana, the Americans turned their attention to this vast land that had a few ranchers and hunters living in it.(第69页第7-9行) 问题:这句中的定语从句不仅不符合英语表达习惯,即表示某地存在某物应该用there be句型之外,而且定语从句本身存在语法问题。显然,定语从句中的in it完全多余。 ■8. Generally speaking, the poetry of Philip Frenuea bears the first distinctly romantic quality in American literature, but it did not established the trend.(第76页第7-10行) 问题:这句中的did not established应改为did not establish,这是初中学生都不会犯的错误。 ■9. Edward Everett and George Ticknor ranked among the representatives of those at first came into contact with European romanticism…(第76页第18-20行) 问题:显然,those at first came into contact应改为those who at first came into contact才符合英语语法。 ■10. His travel to Europe brought him not only into contact with romanticism but also the meeting with Sir Walter Scott, one the most important English authors of the period…(第76页倒数第6-4行) 问题:这句话中的one the most important 应改为one of the most important才符合英语表达习惯。
