而imaginary表達想像中的；虛構(gòu)的;幻想的如：animaginaryfriend想像中的朋友7。literal表“文字的”改成literary指文學(xué)作者的文學(xué)的志向與野心8。

facesth.直面某個事實。不用接介詞in9.定語從句，修飾world，有介詞要用在which前，不能省略10。Therefore，改成Nevertheless句子有轉(zhuǎn)折的意思，作者說他一直沉溺在自已的內(nèi)心世界，然而童年時代所寫的東西數(shù)目不多。而非因此，童年所寫的東西不多。3月專八真題：改錯部分Sofaraswecantell，allhumanlanguagesareequallycompleteandperfectasinstrumentsofcommunication：thatis,（1)everylanguageappearstobewellequippedasanyothertosay（2）thethingstheirspeakerswanttosay.(3)Theremayormaynotbeappropriatetotalkaboutprimitivepeoplesorcultures,butthatisanothermatter。Certainly，notallgroupsofpeopleareequallycompetentinnuclearphysicsorpsychologyorthecultivationofriceortheengravingofBenaresbrass.（4）Whereasthisisnotthefaultoftheirlanguage。TheEskimoscan（5)speakaboutsnowwithagreatdealfurtherprecisionandsubtletythanwecaninEnglish，butthisisnotbecausetheEskimolanguage（oneofthosesometimesmiscalled’primitive')isinherentlymorepreciseandsubtlethanEnglish.（6)ThisexampledoesnotcometolightadefectinEnglish，ashowofunexpected'primitiveness'.Thepositionissimplyandobviouslythat(7）theEskimosandtheEnglishliveinsimilarenvironments.TheEnglishlanguage（8）willbejustasrichintermsfordifferentkindsofsnow，presumably,iftheenvironments（9）inwhichEnglishwashabituallyusedmadesuchdistinctionasimportant。Similarly，wehavenoreasontodoubtthattheEskimolanguagecouldbeaspreciseandsubtleonthesubjectofmotormanufactureorcricket(10)ifthesetopicsformedthepartoftheEskimos'life.Forobvioushistoricalreasons，Englishmeninthe19thcenturycouldnottalkaboutmotorcarswiththeminutediscriminationwhichispossibletoday：carswerenotapartoftheirculture。Buttheyhadahostoftermsforhorse-drawnvehicleswhichsendus,puzzled,toahistoricaldictionarywhenwearereadingScottorDickens.Howmanyofuscoulddistinguishbetweenachaise,alandau,avictoria,abrougham,acoupe,agig,adiligence,awhisky,acalash,atilbury,acarriole,aphaeton，andaclarence？1be後插入as;2their改為its；3There改為It;4Whereas改為But5further改為more6come改為bring；7similar改為different；8will改為would;9asimportant去掉as10thepart去掉the3月專八真題參照答案:改錯部分Theprevioussectionhasshownhowquicklyarhymepassesfromoneschoolchildtothenextandillustratesthefurtherdifference

3。答案：in→on

【詳細解答】固定搭配on。。.occasions

4。答案：rely^→relyon

【詳細解答】固定搭配relyonsb.todosomething

5。答案:makeout→make

【詳細解答】makeout意思是“識別出"，而此處意思是“對.。。做詳細的研究”，故用“makedetailedstudiesof。.?！奔纯伞?/p>

6.答案：its→their

【詳細解答】此處指代的是“investigations”,故用復(fù)數(shù)。

7。答案：^public→thepublic

【詳細解答】the+adj?？杀磉_某一類人，此處意思是“面向公眾”，故應(yīng)用“thepublic”.

8.答案:nevertheless→therefore/thus

【詳細解答】此處不是表達意思的轉(zhuǎn)折,而是與前文構(gòu)成因果關(guān)系，故可改為therefore或thus。

9.答案:interests→interest

【詳細解答】此處當作不可數(shù)名詞為佳

10。答案：these→those

【詳細解答】those指代witnesses,即指代名詞復(fù)數(shù)做定語從句的先行詞,而these不行3月專八真題參照答案:改錯部分DemographicindicatorsshowthatAmericansinthepostwar

2．答案:刪除a

【詳細解答】此處steadydecline指穩(wěn)定下降的行為、過程而不是其成果，為不可數(shù)名詞，故應(yīng)去掉定冠詞a。

3．答案:went∧→on

【詳細解答】goon為固定搭配，意為“持續(xù)”。

4．答案：high→higher

【詳細解答】

背面有than，此處應(yīng)為比較級.

5．答案：Europe→European

【詳細解答】根據(jù)上下文，此處應(yīng)用形容詞作定語修飾名詞counterparts。

6．答案：more【詳細解答】由上下文可知，more與equally矛盾,故應(yīng)去掉。

7．答案：nevertheless→also

【詳細解答】由上下文可知，此處講的內(nèi)容與前部分內(nèi)容之間為遞進關(guān)系，而非轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系。

8．答案：that→those

【詳細解答】由上下文可知，此處所指代的應(yīng)為前面復(fù)數(shù)形式的marriages，故指示代詞也應(yīng)當用復(fù)數(shù)形式。

9．答案：Since→Although（或While）

【詳細解答】從邏輯上講，此處應(yīng)體現(xiàn)讓步關(guān)系,而非因果關(guān)系。

10．答案：in→to

【詳細解答】to．．．extent為固定搭配，意為“到……程度”改錯Therearegreatimpedimentstothegeneraluseofastandardinpronunciation

10.___答案與詳解1。答案：and→while/whereas【詳細解答】前半句意為“發(fā)音是在無意識之中學(xué)成的”,後半句意為“拼寫是故意識地學(xué)成的"，它們之間是對比關(guān)系，故應(yīng)當用連詞while來連接。2。答案：with→of【詳細解答】beunconsciousof是固定搭配,意為“無意識地，未意識到”。即“我們之中諸多人一輩子都不懂得自已的話聽起來是什么樣的"。3.答案:speak∧→out【詳細解答】speakout意為“大膽地說出”,在這裏句意不通。在speakout中加上it，指代前面的speech,意為“當我們說出話後,自已聽起來像什么”。4.答案：firstly→first【詳細解答】firstly表達次序中的“第一"，first則表達時間上的“第一次，初次”.這裏是說“當我們第一次聽到自已的錄音時，一般會震驚”。故應(yīng)將firstly改為first才合乎句意.5.答案：which→that【詳細解答】在定語從句中，假如先行詞是代詞something，everything,nothing,little,few等時，關(guān)系詞應(yīng)用that而不是which，故此處應(yīng)將which改為that。6.答案：went→go【詳細解答】本文通篇用的都是一般目前時,因此此處也應(yīng)用一般目前時，使上下文保持時態(tài)一致。7.答案：刪除per或every【詳細解答】per和every都是“每"的意思，在此屬反復(fù)錯誤，故將兩者去掉一種即可。8。答案：This→It【詳細解答】根據(jù)句子構(gòu)造，句中缺乏一形式主語，而作形式主語的只能是代詞it，this是“這”的意思，不能用做形式主語,因此應(yīng)將this改為it。9。答案：community∧→together【詳細解答】hold意為“抓住，占據(jù)，包括”。此處想體現(xiàn)的意思是“語言用作使小區(qū)具有凝聚力、給人歸屬感的一種方式”，用holdacommunity不能體現(xiàn)此意；holdsth．together表達“使結(jié)合在一起不破，使團結(jié)一致”的意思，符合句意。10。答案：far→away【詳細解答】要體現(xiàn)距離上的遠近，在英語中一般用副詞away。far表達“遠，從（到)很遠距離”,不合句意。3月專八真題參照答案:改錯部分Duringtheearlyyearsofthiscentury,wheatwasseenasthe

答案：

1。strict改為strictly

2.holiday改為holidays.由于原句的謂語動詞為復(fù)數(shù)are，因此holiday必須使用復(fù)數(shù)。此外no背面可以用復(fù)數(shù)也可以用單數(shù)。

3。which前面加上on。由于先行詞theday在關(guān)系從句鐘做狀語，還原回去應(yīng)為:eachholidayiscelebratedontheday，因此必須加on。

4.obsevation改為observance.observation意思為“觀測，觀測”，observance則表達“遵守，慶?！?。

5.Independent改為Independence.獨立曰的說法是“IndependenceDay”。

6.apart改為aside。setapart指“使分離，使分開”，語義不一樣，setaside表達“留出,保留”的意思.

7.at改為in

8.begun改為beginning。動詞begin和分句的主語federalemployees的關(guān)系是積極的，應(yīng)此要用beginning.

9.three—days改為three-day。用連字符連接起來的表達數(shù)量的名詞的前置修飾語的復(fù)數(shù)概念仍然是單數(shù),如：amillion—poundbanknote.

10。also前面加had。假如一種句子裏面有by引導(dǎo)的時間狀語從句則動詞一般用完畢體.專八改錯模擬題2Nowyou’veseentheadsforcomputersfor“free”oralmost_1_
