动词加名词结构在英文议论文中使用的频率最多。它既可以用在主动语态的句子中，也可以用在被动语态的句子中。但要注意：这里使用的动词是及物动词。下面给大家列举几个例子。

　　例一：spoil one’s children 溺爱孩子

　　剑四4 These children are often spoilt, not in terms of love and attention because working parents do not have the time for this, but in more material ways.

　　例二：Encounter situations and experiences 遭遇不同的处境和经历

　　剑五4 Instead, the traits we inherit from our parents and the experiences and situations we encounter in life are so unpredictable and so powerful, that they can boost or over-ride other influences, and there seems to be plenty of research findings to confirm this.

　　例三：shape one’s personality 影响人的性格

　　剑五4 It is the interaction of the two that shapes a person’s personality and dictates how that personality develops.

　　例四：raise the awareness 提高意识

　　剑五B I think, therefore, that governments need to raise this awareness in the general public.

　　例五：take action 采取行动

　　剑五B Children can be educated about environmental issues at school, but adults need to take action.

　　例六：produce waste 制造垃圾

　　剑五B I think it is true that in almost every country today each household and family produces a large amount of waste every week.

　　二、动词+介词

　　动词加名词是英文表达中容易出错的结构：考生总会想当然的给动词搭配一个介词，甚至直接省略不加。朗阁海外考试研究中心提醒考生注意：这种结构主要用在主动语态的句子中，很少用于被动语态。同时，这里使用的动词是不及物动词。下面给大家列举几个例子。

　　例一：lie in something 在于…

　　剑四2 While some people link happiness to wealth and material success, others think it lies in emotions and loving personal relationships.

　　例二：lie with somebody 应由…承担责任

　　剑四4 But I think the solution to the problem lies with the families, who need to be more aware of the future consequences of spoiling their children.

　　例三：benefit from something 从…中获益

　　剑四B They still spend plenty of time at home with their parents, so they can benefit from both environments.

　　例四：end up doing something 以…告终

　　剑四4 Young people may end up never returning to their studies or finding it difficult to readapt to an academic environment.

　　例五：depend on 依赖，取决于

　　剑五4 But whether these characteristics are able to develop within the personality of an individual surely depends on whether the circumstances allow such a development.

　　例六：use up something 用完，耗尽

　　剑五B We forgot that even the cheapest plastic bag has used up valuable resources and energy to produce.

　　三、形容词+名词

　　形容词加名词的结构使用频率也比较高。形容词能够使表达的意思更具体更生动，名词能够使表达显得更加正式和学术。下面给大家列举几个例子。

　　例一：unpredictable and powerful experiences

　　无法预知且有影响力的经历

　　剑五4 It seems that the experiences we have in life are so unpredictable and so powerful that they can boost or over-ride other influences, and there seems to be plenty of research findings to confirm this.
