改错专项训练题参考答案
（1）
1. 去掉in。“多宽多厚”一般用“×××meter wide /thick”表示。
2. 把from改成in。result from 后接原因，而result in 后才接结果。
3. 把extensively 改成extensive。extensive在这里做was的表语，故用形容词形式。
4. 把live改成alive。alive, live都有“活的，活着”之义，但alive一般做表语或后置
定语，live一般只做前置定语。Alive在本句中做主语的补语。
5. 把close改成closure。the …of 结构中间应该用名词。
6. 把followed改following。following在此做伴随状语，如果用followed做并列谓语必须
在此词前加and 。
7. 把in改成on。表示具体的一天的早上，下午，晚上用介词on。一般用in。
8. 把also改成and。also只是副词，不能连接两个谓语，而and是连词，可以起连词作用。
9. 在gouged 的后面加by，表被动，“被火山熔岩凿出一个大峡谷”。
10. 去掉north前的the。north在这里用作副词。
（2）
11.what改为whatever。whatever引导让步状语从句，相当于no matter
what，意思是“无论什么”，“不管什么”，whatever在从句中作宾语。
12.turn改为return。短语in turn表示“轮流地; 挨个, 依次; 反过来”，而在这里是指孩子对父母的回报。
13.interesting改为interest。在形容词性物主代词their的后面应跟名词性成分。
14.do改为are。与前面的is相对应。
15.that改为what。that引导的是定语从句，在本句中应该使用关系代词what，相当于the thing/ things
that。
16.not改为no。固定搭配的副词短语“no longer”
https://www.doczj.com/doc/ff5562381.html,fortable改为comfortably。修饰动词live应为副词而不是形容词。
18.suffer改为go或become或be。或把hungry改为hunger。
19.therefore改为however。此处的条件状语从句表示转折。
20.making 改为make。
（3）
21.and→but。and表示递进并列关系；but表示转折关系。根据上下文应用but。
22. about→for。reason与介词for搭配，表示“……的原因”。
23. very better→very much better。very不能修饰形容词的比较级，只能用much,far, very much, a lot, any, no, rather, a little, a bit修饰。
24. by→in。by the way：顺便说一下；in the right way：以正确的方式，又如：in your own
way：以自己的方式。
25. pronounce→pronouncing。在that 引导的宾语从句中主语是动名词短语pronouncing a foreign language,原形动词（这里为pronounce）不能作主语。
26. himself→itself。one在本句中不是指人，所以其反身代词可用itself，而不用himself。
27. concerning→concerned。be concerned with：关于，如：The book is chiefly concerned with history。concerning作分词用，意为“涉及到”，此处不仅词义不当，而且concering后绝不能加with。
28.may→should。may表示推测、请求、允许或祝愿：should表示义务、建议、惊奇、推测等。这里讲的是老师的义务，故应该为should。
29. worth→worthy。worth可用在两个结构中，后面跟ing形式。1)用先行词it作主语，如：it isn'tworth getting upset。2)用名次或代词作主语，如：The book is not worth reading. worthy 多用于worthy of + n. or be worthy to + v. 结构中，也可用作定语，如：
a cause worthy of support/ a man who is worthy to have a place in the team/ a worthy winner。
30. where→when。occasion是指动作发生的时机而不是地点，故应用表示时间的副词引导的定语从句修饰occasion。
（4）

34. sixteen →sixteenth
35. describing →described

Public attitude towards science owe much the way science is taught in these S1________ institutions. Today, school is what most people come into S2________ contact with a formal instruction and explanation of science for the first time, at least in a systematic way. It is at this point which the foundations are laid for an interest in science. S3________ what is taught (and how) in this first encounter will largely determine an individual’s view of the subject in adult life. Understanding the original of the negative attitudes S4________ towards science may help us to modify them. Most education system neglect exploration, understanding and reflection. S5________ Teachers in schools tend to present science as a collection of facts, often by more detail than necessary. As a result, S6________ children memorize processes such as mathematical formulas or the periodic table, only to forget it shortly afterwards. The S7________ task of learning facts and concepts, one at a time, makes learning laborious, boring and efficient. Such a purely S8________ empirical approach, which consists of observation and description, is also, in a sense, unscientific or incomplete. There is therefore a need for resources and methods of teaching that facilitates a deep understanding of science in S9________ an enjoyable way. Science should not only be ‘fun’in the same way as playing a video game, but ‘hard fun’----a deep feeling of connection made possibly only by imaginative S10________ engagement. 06年12月新六级 The National Endowment for the Arts recently released the results of its “Reading at Risk”survey, which described the movement of the American public away from books and literature and toward television and electronic media.

大学英语四级口语改错（15） 欢迎(welcome to) 英文表达“欢迎”之意的句子并不是很简单,这里有一个重要的句型：“Welcome to(某个地方)”。这个句型能够作为日常家中来客人 时的欢迎语,也能够用在饭店宾馆服务员招待顾客时。还能够用在招牌 或标语上，欢迎人们来到某地。 例如，当乘客乘机抵达洛衫矶时，第一眼看见的就是“Welcome to Los Angeles.”不过“欢迎你再来北京站”就不能译成“Welcome you to Beijing Station”. 应译为“Welcome to Beijing Station” 或“Please come again.” 再看“欢迎”的另一种表达方式： Translating sentences and thoughts containing the Chinese word “欢迎”into English i s difficult. Here is an important sentence pattern： “Welcome to (some place)”. This pattern can be used when someone arrives at your home. You can say, “Welcome ! Welcome to my home. Please come in and make yourself at home.” It can also be used by hosts and waiters and waitresses in restaurants and clerks in hotels： “Welcome to McDonald’ s! May I take your order?” “Welcome to the Hilton Hotel. How may I help you?” It can also be used on signs welcoming people to a particular place. For example,
1. Three friends and I was driving on a highway. While we were going at least 50 miles per hour, we passed over a car. It had broken down, stopped on the side of the road. My friend slows down, and pulled behind the other car. He got out of the car immediate and before I knew it he was helping the other person push the car down the road to a spot where wasn’t so close to the passing cars. From the way they were pushing the car, it looked as if my friend was pushing them all by himself. I thought my friend help a complete stranger like this was a great thing, but I won’t forget his good nature or character. 2. Dear Brad, I’m very glad to hear from you. In your last letter you ask about the post-80s in China. Actually I am the boy who belongs to this group. Comparing with our parents, life for us is getting much hard. The job market is tough and the house is expensively to afford. Now many girls prefer to marry with a man who owns a house and a car. Therefore, I don’t think love built on house and cars is true love, and I doubt how long it will last. As a matter of fact, though situations are tough today, a lot of we post-80s are making great efforts live a good life. I believe we will have a nice future. Li Hua 3. Good morning, ladies and gentlemen, Some of us are having problems about our parents, as they often look into our school bags or read our diaries. I fully understand why we are comfortable about it, but it is no need to feel too sadly. Our parents are checking in our bags or diaries to make sure we’re not getting into troubles. They have probably heard of some horrible stories about other kids and thinking we might do the same. Or perhaps they just want to connect with us and are doing it all wrong. My suggestion is: Tell them we want them to trust us as many as we’d like to trust them. If you don’t think you can talk to them, write them a letter and leave it lie around --- they are bound to read it. Thank you!
