× I keep a wide range of plants in my home.
✓ I keep a wide range of plants at home.
这里介词用法不准确,英语通常说 'keep plants at home' 而不是 'in my home'(虽然'in my home'不是完全错误,但在此情境下更自然使用'at home')。建议多读写常见短语搭配,记忆固定搭配。
× I love being with plants because they often make me feel like in nature.
✓ I love being with plants because they often make me feel like I'm in nature.
句中缺少主语和动词构成的从句,应使用 'like I'm in nature' 或者 'as if I'm in nature'。错误是从属结构不完整。建议使用完整的从句或改用形容词短语。
× When I was young, one type of plant that I often grew was flowers.
✓ When I was young, one type of plant that I often grew was the flower. / When I was young, one type of plant that I often grew was flowers.
原句中 'one type of plant ... was flowers' 在逻辑上不够严谨:'one type' 后通常接单数可数名词或用复数表示多类。可以改为 'the flower'(指一类植物)或直接说 'I often grew flowers'。建议根据想表达的意思选择单数或复数结构。
× I remember I grew multiple flowers including chrysanthemums, Lotus, and roses.
✓ I remember I grew multiple flowers including chrysanthemums, lotus, and roses.
单词 'lotus' 不应大写,除非是专有名词。注意大小写规则,常用名词小写。
× They often made me feel satisfied.
✓ They often made me feel satisfied. / They often made me feel happy.
句子本身语法正确,但与上下文时态混用有点不自然(之前为一般过去时,'when I was young',使用 'made' 是可以的)。如需更自然,可改为 'They often made me feel happy' 表达更贴切情感。
× Yes, I do apart from knowing some basic techniques, one thing about growing plants is that it often takes time and patience if you want to grow plants, you must be dedicated, devoted and patient because you need to take good care of the.
✓ Yes, I do. Apart from knowing some basic techniques, one thing about growing plants is that it often takes time and patience. If you want to grow plants, you must be dedicated, devoted, and patient because you need to take good care of them.
原句为 run-on sentence(连句过长且结构混乱),并且句末缺少宾语 'them'。需要拆分成多句并补全代词。建议练习分句与代词使用,避免把多个想法堆在一长句中。
× For example, when someone is ill or when someone is moving into a new house.
✓ For example, when someone is ill or when someone moves into a new house.
在列举情况时,保持时态一致更自然。'is moving into' 可改为一般现在时 'moves into' 表示常见情况。两者并不都是错误,但在习惯表达中使用一般现在时更好。
× People often receive plants with good wishes.
✓ People often receive plants as gifts with good wishes.
原句语义上略显不完整,通常表达为 'receive plants as gifts',即加上 'as gifts' 来明确身份。建议在固定搭配中加入必要成分以清晰表达。
