如何正确地使用标点符号是学习英语必须具备的基本条件。标点符号能帮助作者清楚地传达他的思想,使读者对每一句话的结构与意义一目了然。一段没有标点符号的文章是很难看懂的。

1. 没有标点符号难以了解的例句:

(a) After eating the child left the table 乍看起来,好像是:「吃完那小孩以后…」。有了标点符号之后的句子是:After eating, the child left the table. 「吃完之后,那小孩离开了餐桌」。

(b) Inside the dog was growling乍看起来,好像是:「那只狗的肚子里在咆哮」。有了标点符号之后的句子是:Inside, the dog was growling. 「门里面,那只狗在咆哮」。

(c) What do you think I mend for nothing and give you two dollars乍看起来,好像是:「我免费给你补(鞋)之外,还要送你两块钱,你以为如何?」。有了标点符号之后的句子是:

What! do you think I mend for nothing and give you two dollars?

什么!你以为我免费给你补(鞋)之外,还给你两块钱吗?」

2. 增减标点符号的例句:

(a)Happily he died.

他含笑而终。本句中happily修饰died.

Happily, he died.

真高兴,他死了。本句中happily修饰 he died.

(b) No tax will be imposed on foreign fruit trees.

外国进口之果树将不征税。

No tax will be imposed on foreign fruit, trees.

外国进口之水果,树将不征税。

(c) Dr. Johnson, our family doctor cannot come today.

詹生医师,我们的家庭医师今天不能来。

本句是向詹生医师传达一项讯息。

(d) Dr. Johnson, our family doctor, cannot come today.

我们的家庭医师詹生今天不能来。

本句中our family doctor 是Dr. Johnson 的同位语。
