How to work是句子吗？(为你批改作文)

许多英语学习者常误将“how to do sth ”当作一个完整的句子，但实际上，它只是一个动词不定式短语。其结构为“特殊疑问词+动词不定式”，在句中可充当主语，宾语或表语。

1.How to study English well is important for my brother.(做主语)

2.Mr. Brown told me how to study English.(作宾语)

3.The question is how to work out the math problem.(做表语)

若要表达“该如何工作”这类完整特殊疑问句，则必须补充主语和谓语，构成完整句子，而不能仅依赖非谓语动词形式的“how to do ”。尤其要注意：不可仅在“How to do 后加问号就视为一个问句。正确表达应为：

1.How do you work?

2.How will you work next?

3.How can you work?

今天推荐的原创英文材料中，出现了类似的用法错误。虽也存在其他问题，仍要特别感谢作者提供了真实的语境示例。看看原文吧，你能发现几个问题？

一，我发现的问题

二，分析问题并修改

（一）根据中学英语词汇范围，可以这样调整，注意好几个词汇搭配。

Recently, plenty of people are showing a great interest in various curious and unconventional ideas.

（二）注意三点: assuming that可以用if引导的从句替代更地道；可以用与将来事实相反的虚拟语气结构；devote oneself to doing专心致志做某事。

If you were to follow such ideas, an excessive amount of time would be devoted to learning English.

（三）注意四点: either 也不，只能在否定句中使用；how to work也不是完整的句子，所以重新构建句子；manage to do设法做某事。

How, then, could you still manage to work? And without work, how would you make a living?

最后修改如下

Recently, plenty of people are showing a great interest in various curious and unconventional ideas. If you were to follow such ideas, an excessive amount of time would be devoted to learning English. How, then, could you still manage to work? And without work, how would you make a living?

近来，许多人开始对各种新奇而不循常规的想法表现出浓厚兴趣。倘若你追随此类想法，大量的时间便会被耗费在英语学习上。既然如此，又谈何持续工作？没有工作，那又如何维持生计呢？

三，总结

3.Mary is devoted to learn French.

4.He didn't know how to do next.
