　　1、 复合句和标点符号

　　1)句子或者从句要完整，要有主、谓和宾语。

　　On May 20, 1927, Charles Lindbergh, a 25 year old from the Midwest, embarked on a journey. Destined to become the first successful solo, non stop flight from New York to Paris.

　　划线部分改为“embarked on a journey destined to become the first successful solo, nonstop flight from New York to Paris. ”

　　… that instinct having precluded a change in territorial prerence. (“that”从句，需要谓语动词，而非谓语动词 “having precluded” 不能做谓语，所以此句不完整，改为“has precluded”.)

　　2)一个句子不能出现两个动词(联动)。

　　To many, Prince Vlad was a national hero and call him Dracula reduces him to Stoker’s fictional monster. (该句子里面出现了两个动词：call 和 reduce , 所以call要改为“to call”做主语)。

　　3)非谓语动词的逻辑主语必须和主句的主语符合。

　　Horrified by trench warfare, a lasting imprint was lt on the generation of Europ ean intellectuals…(过去分词逻辑主语和主句主语不一致，所以改为The horror of trench warfare lt a lasting imprint…)

　　4)一些连接词或者介词及其短语，如however, nevertheless, nonetheless, notwithstanding, despite, in spite of ,due to 的用法。

　　However: used when you are adding a fact or piece of information that seems surprising, or seems very different from what you have just said

　　Nevertheless / nonetheless: in spite of a fact you have just mentioned

　　Notwithstanding: (是介词，不能跟句子) in spite of

　　In spite of /despite: 介词或者介词短语，不能跟句子，表示“尽管如此”。

　　Due to: 由于。

　　5) 关于标点符号。

　　A. 逗号不能连接两个句子;英语从句连接必须有连接词。

　　B. 连接词使用，如“although, when”等，要断句, 要用逗号, 即两个从句之间需要逗号。

　　e.g. Although the exact cause for such journeys is impossible to determine.Scientists speculate that continental drift has pulled traditional seasonal homes far apart ….

　　F. No Change G.. determine-scientists H. determine; scientists J. determine,scientists (答案为J)

　　e.g. When soldiers deserted his army or failed to meet his military standards received the same treatment. (后半句应改为：standards, they received the same treatment. )

　　e.g. Bore Mary could reach the teacher she saw the woman offer the bird part of bagel. (划线部分需要在“teacher”和“she”之间增加一个逗号。)

　　C. 短语之间不必加逗号，“that”引导的宾语从句、限制性定语从句之前都不加逗号，而“which, who”引导的非限制定语从句，一定要加“逗号”。

　　e.g. I went to the library every night, smuggling in big cups of coffee, to keep me awake…(划线部分逗号不需要)

　　e.g. We were all charged with the excitement, that comes from embarking on a great adventure…(划线部分逗号不需要)。

　　e.g My father, who snores loudly, always sleeps in his long johns. (非限制性定语从句需要逗号)

　　D. “and”连接的并列句必须增加“逗号”。

　　Susie ate seven hamburgers, and that’s why she was sick.

　　E. 冒号表示说明前面的内容。

　　e.g I changed into my uniform and immediately got my first customers, a father, with tow little boys.(划线部分第一个逗号需要改成冒号)

　　F. 分号表示两个并列的句子。

　　G. 破折号表示停顿，或者插入语，句子中间需要两个破折号，结尾处一个就可以。

　　2、 省略原则，(omit the underline), 简介原则, 尽量简化语言的使用。

　　e.g.. “similarly/likewise , alter/ change，complex and complicated，adaptations and adjustments” 等类似同义的词不必两个合在一起使用; people who write (改为writers)。

　　3、 “For doing sth” 不能表示目的，“to do sth”表示。

　　e.g.. For understanding why they do it, we need only look at the changing seasons in the north. (“for doing sth”不能放在句首表示目的，所以原句要改为 “to undertand”)。

　　4、 动词有名词形式，一般不用“动名词”(contribute/contribution)。

　　e.g.. they domesticated the plants and animals they needed for surviving. (for survival)

　　e.g.. the story of Martian’s invading of Earth. (invasion)

　　e.g.. Max Ernst is best known for contributing to this movement was the development of the frottage technique. contributing 要改为 contribution, 所以该部分改为：Max’s best-known contribution)

　　5、 时态、人称一致，现在时态不能和过去完成时连用，过去时不能和现在完成时连用。

　　e.g. When he got back to the United States, the uproar only has grown. (过去时态 不能和现在时态连用，后面必须改为“grew”. )

　　e.g. Why do they travel so very far? During its migration from equatorial Africa to northern Europe, the white stork crossed the Sahara Desert and the Mediterranean Sea. (时态不一致，整个语篇是现在时，后面不能使用过去)

　　以上就是ACT阅读考试的注意事项的一部分内容。大家在备考ACT考试的过程中，要有意识地注意这些问题。
