这短短3句话的开头段里，密布着8处语法错误！纳尼！八处！你都找到了没？如果没有，好好的看一下解析哦！这些小细节，会让你的写作在Grammatical Range and Accuracy一条上大打折扣！
下面我们就挨个来讲解一下这些看似微小，但却决定了雅思写作成败的细节问题，也请各位烤鸭对号入座！力求不要再犯！
【细节一】冠词的使用
错误1：Nowadays, a increasing number of people.
纠正：元音单词increasing前的不定冠词应用an而不是a。这样的错误在口语中不容易犯，但写到纸上时就容易忽视。不要以为一个小小的a或者an没什么大关系，但其实在native speaker眼里，这个错误很“耀眼”！
错误2：However, whether the government... on arts is controversial issue.
诊断：issue是可数名词，但这里既没有用冠词又不是复数，显然是有问题的。
纠正：However, whether the government... On arts is a controversial issue.
【细节二】名词单复数
错误3：However, whether the government should allocate fund to public services …
诊断：fund表示政府拨款的“资金”，此处应该使用复数，表示多笔拨款。
纠正：However, whether the government should allocate funds to public services …
错误4：In my view, public service are vital to our life, but…
诊断：句子主语public service与谓语are不一致，主语是单数，而谓语是复数用法。 此处public services泛指“公共服务”，应用复数。
纠正：In my view, public services are vital to our life, but…
【细节三】动词词组用法
错误5：Nowadays, an increasing number of people concerned about the enhancement of public services.
诊断：动词词组be concerned about 表示“对……关注”。但这句话中使用时漏掉了be动词，导致整个句子语法错误。
纠正：Nowadays, an increasing number of people are concerned about the enhancement of public services。
【细节四】近似用法混淆
错误6：However, whether the government should allocate fund to public services other thanwaste…
诊断：考生原本想用的应该是rather than，表示“而不是”，却错误地写成了形式类似的other than，表示“除了……之外”，整句话的意思就改变了。
纠正：However, whether the government should allocate fund to public services rather than waste…
【细节五】非谓语动词用法
错误7：However, whether... to public services rather than waste money on arts is…
诊断：rather than是介词，后面可接名词或动名词形式，但此处考生错误地接了动词原形。
纠正：However, whether... to public services rather than wasting money on arts is…
错误8：In my view... but spending money on arts is definitely not just waste money.
诊断：考生想表达“在艺术上投资绝不仅仅是浪费金钱”，但却错误地用动词原形waste作表语，暴露了基本功不扎实的问题
纠正：In my view... but spending money on arts is definitely not just wasting money.
怎么样？这些个不起眼的小错误，你都有找出来吗？如果有漏掉的，那么在看了解析以后，一定要好好研究一下自己为什么会遗漏哦！弄懂这个语法点，那么下次就不会再犯错啦！要想在雅思写作中收获高分，要留心语法细节，不要让这些小错误毁了你的雅思写作！
