a. 可争论的`,成问题的,未决定的

辩论变成了党派间的争吵。There followed a intense debate.
接下来是一场激烈的争论。the affirmative side in a debate
辩论中赞成的一方 The book aroused debate.
这本书引起了争论。Political debate is dynamic.
政治辩论是不断发展变化的。
主谓不一致，人称与动词不符。例如：
My sister go to the cinema at least once a week. (误)
My sister goes to the cinema at least once a week. (正)
上面例句中，主语是My sister ，为第三人称，所以谓语动词应该用第三人称单数形式goes才正确，这种主谓不一致的错误在写作中是很常见的问题，稍一疏忽就会犯，考生需要更加细心才行。
句子成分残缺不全，语句不通。例如：
We should read books may be useful to us. (误)
We should read books which may be useful to us. (正)
这是一个定语从句的例句，其中which在从句中做的是主语，所以不能省略，一旦省略就会造成句子成分残缺，
句子成分多余，累赘复杂。例如：
This test is end, but there is another test is waiting for you. (误)
One test ends, but another is waiting for you. (正)
这一句的错误有点中式英语的'味道，逐字逐句对应翻译，there is 放在这里，累赘而又繁琐。
动词时态、语态的误用，前后不一致。例如：
I was walking along the road, and there are not so many cars on the street. (误)
I was walking along the road and there were not so many vehicles on the street. (正)
这个例句中前面是was walking ，所以后面也要用相应的过去进行时were，同一个句子里，没有特殊情况，前后时态时要保持一致的。
We have little time to read some books which we interest. (误)
We have little time to read some books in which we are interested. (正)
这一句也可以说是定语从句语法错误，be interested in是我们都知道的固定搭配，所以它后面跟宾语一定要有介词in，所以从句引导词要用 in which 。
词类混淆，词性不明。例如：
It is my point that reading must be selectively. (误)
In my opinion, reading must be selective. (正)
这句中，be 后面是形容 reading 的意思，所以要用到一个形容词，而selectively明显是一个副词。
名词可数与不可数的错误。例如：
In modern society, people are under various pressures(误)
In modern society, people are under various kinds of pressure. (正)
pressure是一种无形的但是有很多种类的事物，所以不能直接在后面加复数s，但是要形容他多，各种各样后面加一个种类kinds of 就正确表达出了复数形式。
及物动词与不及物动词的误用。例如：
The traffic accident was taken place at the junction of two highways. (误)
The traffic accident took place at the junction of two highways. (正)
发生是一个主动的过程，没有什么事是被发生的，所以不能用was taken place 。
情态动词的误用。例如：
They should spent much time. (误)
They should spend much time. (正)
情态动词后面常常跟动词原形，所以spend要用原型。
动宾搭配不当。例如：
We must ppay attention to it and make solutions to the problem. (误)
We must pay attention and find a solution to the problem. (正)
There be句型的误用。例如：
There exists some new problems such as being dishonest. (误)
There exist/arise some new problems such as being dishonest. (正)
There be句型中动词一般用原型，exist/arise 不需要变成第三人称单数形式。
以上只是英语写作中大家容易犯的一些语法错误，实际上在平时，我们看来，这些错误都很简单，但是考试的时候由于粗心大意，越是简单的东西越不仔细留心就越容易出错，老师为大家总结的错误都是具有代表性的，希望大家好好了解上面这些错误，争取自己在考试中不要重蹈覆辙，预祝大家考试顺利!
二、一般上说，形容词的位置是紧贴在被修饰的名词前面；不然的话，就跟在接系动词（linking verb）后面充当补足语（complement）。例如：
① Sam is an industrious professional designer.
② What is it that bulky box? May I know?
③ Homeless cats are seen wandering about the field.
④ David looks cheerful everyday.
⑤ Janet is being nasty today.
⑥ The sky suddenly turned dark.
①-③里的形容词修饰它们后头的名词；④-⑥里的形容词是补足语。
三、形容词作定语一般要放在名词前面，但当形容词修饰不定代词something，nothing，anything时要放在所修饰的不定代词之后。如：something important，nothing serious。
当形容词带有表示度量的词或词组作定语或表语时，定语或表语要后置。如：
We have dug a hole two meters deep.
The hole is about two metres deep.
四、单个形容词：
单个形容词修饰名词时，一般要放在名词前。前面常常带有冠词、形容词性物主代词、指示代词、数词等。a clever boy 一个聪明的男孩 my own book 我自己的书
五、形容词词组：
词组或形容词后面有介词短语或不定式短语等补足成分时，形容词必须置于名词后。
It is a problem difficult to work out。这是一道难以解决的问题。
He is a boy deserving of sympathy。 他是个值得同情的男孩。
