初中英语写作中常见的语法错误：指代不清

　　指代不清

　　指代不清主要指代词与被指代的人或物关系不清，或者先后所用的代词不一致。

　　例:

　　1. Mary was friendly to my sister because she wanted her to be her bridesmaid.

　　玛丽和我姐姐很要好，因为她要她做她的伴娘。

　　解析：读完上面这一句话，读者无法明确地判断两位姑娘中谁将结婚，谁将当伴娘。如果我们把容易引起误解的代词加以明确，意思就一目了然了。

　　改为：Mary was friendly to my sister because she wanted my sister to be her bridesmaid.

　　2.We can also know the society by serving it yourself.

　　我们还可以通过亲身参与、体验的方式了解社会。

　　解析：句中人称代词we和反身代词yourself指代不一致。

　　改为：We can also know the society by serving it ourselves.
