常見錯誤

錯誤 1:because 和 so 同句重複使用

Because I was tired, so I slept early.

Because I was tired, I slept early. / I was tired, so I slept early.

通常選一個就夠了。

錯誤 2:轉折卻用 and

He is poor and he is happy.(想表達轉折)

He is poor, but he is happy.

若意思有對比,要用 but 更自然。

錯誤 3:句子一直接短句,不連接

I was hungry. I cooked noodles. I ate quickly.

I was hungry, so I cooked noodles and ate quickly.

適度用連接詞會讓句子更完整。
