Informl: People can’t put up with the alienation brought by the Internet.

兩種文體在語言特征上的第二類主要差異體現(xiàn)在語法上，具體包括以下幾個方面：
1. 在構(gòu)成比較句型時，很多考生選擇使用了人稱代詞的賓格形式，其實使用人稱代詞的主格形式要顯得更正式些。
Informal: He spent more time playing computer games than me.
Formal: He spent more time playing computer games than I.
2. 在表達(dá)“讓步”概念時，很多考生選擇使用的but, anyway, all the same, though, although等為非正式文體常用詞語表達(dá)。正式文體則常使用yet, however, nevertheless, in spite of (despite), notwithstanding等詞語，
Informal: He tried to overcome his addiction to the Internet, but he failed.
Formal: He endeavoured to overcome his addiction to the Internet; however, it turned out to be a failure.
3. 在構(gòu)成“方式狀語”時，很多考生偏愛使用副詞，而這正是非正式文體常用的表達(dá)方式，正式文體則常用介詞和與該副詞同根的詞構(gòu)成的介詞短語：
Informal: It’s very important to….
Formal: It is of great importance to….
4. 在表達(dá)“原因”、“后果”等概念時，很多考生由于水平所限，總是使用非正式文體常用的so, because或其他形式的表示原因的從句醫(yī)學(xué)全在,線gydjdsj.org.cn，正式文體則常用 on account of, accordingly, thus, hence, consequently, owing to (the fact that…)等詞或詞組，且比較經(jīng)常地運用分詞短語、獨立主格結(jié)構(gòu)等。
Informal: Since computers had proliferated, many people become addicted to the Internet.
Formal: Computers having proliferated, many people become addicted to the Internet.
