such as 是雅思考试中一个大家很熟悉的词组,但是很多备考雅思的同学经常做的事情是记词汇替换譬如说like, for example, for instance, a case in point等等,却很少真正将such as这个词用准。
雅思替换讲解1 在句中出现,而不是句首,这个和for example区分很大
例:Many students are interested in some non-academic courses. For example, they like music and sports.
例:Many students are interested in some non-academic courses such as music and sports.
雅思替换讲解2 后面加名词或者动名词,不能加句子或者是动词
例:Children should be given more time to pursue some hobbies such as they play sport and learn music. (应该改成playing sport and learning music,动名词才可以)
雅思替换讲解3 such as 后一般不加逗号,直接加名词
雅思替换讲解4 一般加两个或者以上的名词或者是动名词;如果只加一个名词,一般前面不用加逗号;如果加好几个名词,往往such as前要加逗号
例:Countries such as New Zealand have a long record of welcoming refugees from all over the world.
雅思替换讲解5 一般紧跟在所解释的名词后,不能够中间用其他词或者内容隔开
例:Students are interested in several subjects in this course such as child abuse and malnutrition. (例子是解释subjects,不能放在in this course 后面)
改成:Students are interested in several subjects such as child abuse and malnutrition in this course.
雅思替换讲解6 such as 后面的名词必须是前面名词的解释,具备类似的性质
雅思替换讲解7 如果是单句的话,such as前面不需要用逗号,但是如果后面还有分句或者从句,要用逗号
