× There is the tallest building in Beijing, China Tower, which is also a famous landmark in the city.
✓ The tallest building in Beijing is China Tower, which is also a famous landmark in the city.
句型中存在“there be”使用不当。原句用“There is the tallest building...”在英语中不常用于介绍特定的独一无二的事物。对于特定主体(the tallest building),应将其作为主语置于句首,使用“is”连接。建议把“China Tower”放在主语后作为表语或用主系表结构重写,句子更自然。
× I always come across its pictures online and they are truly magnificent.
✓ I always come across pictures of it online, and they are truly magnificent.
原句中“its pictures”搭配虽可理解,但更常见和自然的表达是“pictures of it”。此外保持代词指代清晰,“they”指代“pictures”是正确的,但前半句的短语顺序可改为更自然的“come across pictures of it”。建议多用“pictures of + 名词/代词”结构,使表达地道。
× I think waiting for the elevator is very troublesome and time consuming, and I'm also a little afraid of heights.
✓ I think having to wait for the elevator is very troublesome and time-consuming, and I'm also a little afraid of heights.
原句中“waiting for the elevator”虽然可用,但在表示被迫或必须做某事时,更自然的结构是“having to wait”。另外“time consuming”作为复合形容词作定语时应连字符“time-consuming”。建议在此类情形使用“have to / having to”来强调需要做某事,并注意复合形容词的连字符用法。
