問題分析：該句不僅存在例20中的連詞使用問題，而且還存在標點符號使用不當問題，即yet前的分號應改為逗號；to the effect意思是“大意是說”，既然是“大概意思”，就不是原話，因此“rhetoric just means smoothness”不應使用引號。
22. Since some Chinese sentences need no verbs so some onomatopoeias may form the rheme.(p. 136)
問題分析：本句存在的問題同前。在英語中，在同一個句子中，since與so兩者中只能用一個。
23. Ideas are placed at the beginning or at the end of a sentence receive the greatest emphasis. (p. 141)
問題分析：這句話存在兩個謂語，即are placed和 receive，不符合英語句子結構基本要求，按照句子意思，應把第一個謂語動詞are placed改為過去分詞結構placed，即全句改為：Ideas placed at the beginning or at the end of a sentence receive the greatest emphasis.
24. However, to the Chinese mind the shifts of the subject is not a violation of unity on condition it reads smooth. (p. 142)
問題分析：主謂數不一致，應將主語shifts由復數改為單數 shift。
25. There is no need to bother unduly with the considerations of stylistic elegance that affect some varieties… (p. 167)
問題分析：定語從句所修飾的先行詞stylistic elegance是單數，因此從句謂語動詞affect應改為affects。
26. The science English bear the same features. (p. 166)
問題分析：主語English是第三人稱單數，謂語動詞bear應改為bears。另外，The science English中的冠詞The多余，應去掉。
27. Recently some terms are complete borrowed from the related languages or they maybe partly transplanted semantically. (p. 168)
問題分析：(1)在英語中修飾動詞的是副詞，而不是形容詞，因此complete應改為completely；(2) maybe存在拼寫問題，應分開成兩個詞，即may和be；3、the related languages中的定冠詞多余。另外，本句的時態有待商榷。
28. Since the thought pattern of one people differs from that of another, much adjustments should be made in translating long sentences. (p. 175)
問題分析：adjustments既然使用復數形式，就說明這里是用作可數名詞的，因此much應改為many。或者把adjustments改為單數形式adjustment。
29. Historical narrative have informative and instructive aims. (p. 202)
問題分析：主語Historical narrative是第三人稱單數，因此have應改為has。
