改错练习
1.平行结构
(1) At the heart of the NEA survey is the belief that our democratic system depends on leaders who can think critically, analyze texts and writing clearly.
【解析】这里的writing显然与think和analyze并列,因此应该用同样的形式,所以应该改成write.
(2) Their experiments have shown that reading disorders are most likely the result of what is, in effect, faulty wiring in the brain-----not lazy, stupidity or a poor home environment.
【解析】这里的lazy应该与stupidity和a poor home environment并列,因此该用名词形式laziness.
(3)凉拌面条 The task of learning facts and concepts, one at a time, makes learning laborious, boring and efficient.
【解析】本题中 efficient和laborious与boring并列,根据并列成分意思一致原则,也可以推断出这里的efficient应该换成它的反义词inefficient.
2. 动词
(4) Viewing biologically, the modern footballer is revealed as a member of a disguid hunting pack.
【解析】本句的主语the modern footballer是view的逻辑主语，根据view的词性和句子的意思，两者之间应该是被动关系，所以只能用view的过去分词形式。
困难党员(5) Culture refers to the social heritage of a people - the learned patterns for thinking, feeling and acting that characterize a population or society, include the expression of the patterns in material things.
【解析】分析该句结构可知，谓语是refers to，因此include必须改成including才符合语法规范。
(6) Do not nd a photo unless specifically requested. If you have to nd one, make sure it is one taking in a professional tting, rather than a holiday snap.
【解析】根据上文可知，one代替前面的photo，其后的分词短语充当one的后置定语，表示“被拍的照片”，故应将taking改为taken。
3. 介词短语固定搭配
(7) If you are nding your CV electronically, check the formatting by nding it to yourlf first. Keep up the format simple.
丁香作用【解析】keep在此处的含义应该是“保持”，是及物动词，后面后面可以接形容词充当宾补，keep the format simple意为“保持格式简洁”。而keep up意为“(使…)保持或继续下去”，后面可以跟名词，但不能接形容词充当宾补，因此应将原文中的up去掉。
(8) But to sociologists, to be human is to be cultured, becau of culture is the common world of experience we share with other members of our group.
复杂是什么意思
【解析】分析句子的结构可知，becau of 后面是一个完整的句子。当表示原因时becau of 后跟名词，becau 后跟句子，所以此处的of应该去掉。
(9) As we know, smoking not only gives harm to smokers’ health, but also non-smokers who live with them.
客厅鱼缸摆放哪里最佳【解析】此处考查固定搭配do harm to，意为“对…有害”，所以此处的gives应改为does。
国产卫浴品牌4. 名词
(10) There is so much voice outside that I can’t concentrate on my study and thinking.
【解析】本题中voice意思是“(人的)声音”，而noi指的是噪声。因此此题为词的误用。
(11) If you smoke and you still don’t believe that there’s a definite link between smoke and troubles, heart dia and lung cancer.
炒海带的做法
【解析】本题中smoke作名词时意为“烟雾”，作动词时意为“吸烟”。此处指吸烟和肺部疾病的关系故使用smoking。
5. 冠词
(12) Most American business are open five days a week. American school children attend the school five days a week as well.
婴儿积食了怎么办【解析】attend school意为“上学”，而不是特指“学校”，所以将the 去掉。相类似的词还有go to bed, in hospital（住院），in the hospital（在医院）等。
6. 代词
(13) The fast-growing population’s demand for food, they warned, would soon exceed their supply, leading to widespread food shortages and starvation.
【解析】此处是说，迅速增长的人口对食物的需求很快将超过“食物”的supply(供应)，因此supply前面的代词应与food保持一致，故应该将their改成its。
(14) Traditionally, the American farmer has always been independent and hard-working. In the eighteenth century farmers were quite lf-sufficient. The farm family grew and ma
de almost nothing it needed. The surplus crop would be sold to buy a few items in the local general store.
【解析】上一句说“在18世纪农民是自给自足的”，那么接下去应该是“农民生产自己生活的一切东西”才符合逻辑，所以应该将nothing改成everything.
7. 易混词
(15) His persistence was awarded when the car finally started.
【解析】句中“award”是“颁发，授予(奖赏)”之义，而文中想要表达的意思是“汽车终于启动了，那就是对他坚持不懈精神的回报。”应把award改成reward。
(16) A diversity committee compod of reporters, editors, and photographers meets regularly to value the Seattle Times’ content and to educate the rest of the newsroom staff about diversity issues.
【解析】动词value有两个含义：第一，to think that someone or something is important，
比如I value our friendship。第二，to decide how much money something is worth，比如we decide to get this hou valued。不论哪个含义，用于此都不适合。从文中可以推测这些人碰头人是为了judge how good, uful, or successful the paper is，因此要用evaluate。
8. 词性
(17) Now what started in schools across the country is playing itlf out on a nation stage and is possibly having an impact on the reading habits of the Ameri- can public.
【解析】“在国内舞台”应该是on a national stage,在这里名词nation要改成它的形容词形式national。
(18) Most experts believe this can continue even if the population doubles by the mid-21st century,although feeding I0 billion people will not be easy for politics, economic and environmental reasons.
【解析】reasons有三个修饰词politics, economic， environmental , 后两个是形容词，第
一个也应该是一致的，所以把politics改称political。
