英语六级改错试题20篇第一篇:Error Correction (15 minutes)Most studies suggest that when women and men do thesame job and have the experience, pay rates tend to besimilar. Most of the dollar differences stem from fact that -------71. women tend to be more recently employed and have more -------72. years on the job. Whether women who have started a careerwill attain pay equality with men rest on at least two factors. -------73. First, will most of them continue part time at their jobs after -------74. they have children? A break in their employment, or a decision -------75. to work part time, will slow its raises and promotionsbecause it would for men. Second, will male-dominated -------76. companies elevate women to higher-paid jobs at the different -------77. rate as they elevate men? On some fields, this had clearly not -------78. happened. Many men, for example, have committed their -------79. lives to teaching careers, yet relative few have become -------80. principals or headmasters.答案:71. from fact -> from the fact72. recently -> frequently73. rest -> rests74. part -> full75. its -> their76. because -> as77. different -> same78.

You may even have entered the shopjust to find shelters away a sudden shower. --72.Whatever the reasons, you can soon become totallyunaware of your surroundings. The desire to pickup a book with an attractive dust jacket isirresistible, even this method of selection ought --73.not to be followed, as you might end up with arather bored book. You soon become engrossed in --74.some book or other, and usually it is only muchlater that you realise you have spent far much --75.time there and must dash off to keep some forgotten appointment -- without buying a book, of course.This opportunity to escape the realities ofeveryday life is, I think, the main attraction of a bookshop. There are not many places where it is impossible to do this. A music shop is very much --76. like a bookshop. You can wander round such placesto your heart's content. If it is a good shop, noassistant will approach to you with the inevitable --77. greeting: "Can I help you, Sir?" You needn't buy anything if you don't want. In a bookshop anassistant should remain the background until you --78. have finished browsing. Then, only then, are his services necessary. Of course, you may want tofind out where a particular section is, since when he --79. has led you there, the assistant should retirediscreetly and look as he is not interested in --80.selling a single book.答案:71. if -- whether72. (away) from73. (even) although74. bored -- boring75. (far) too76. impossible -- possible77. /78. (remain) in79. since -- but80.

That desire fuels your dreams and thespecial goal keeps you focusing. --71.Deeply down we all have a hope that our --72.destiny is not to be average and prosaic. Everyonetalks about a good game, but the winner goes outand do something. To win, there has to be movement --73. and physical action. Attitudes and persistence canhelp us become who we want to be. --74.Competition is the best motivator. Because --75.many people use competition as an excuse for notdoing something, those who really want to success --76.see competition as an opportunity, and they'rewilling to do the tough work necessarily to win. --77.Learn to deal with fear. Fear is the greatestdeterrent to taking risk. People worry so much --78.about failing that their fear paralyzes them,drained the energy they might otherwise be using to --79.grow.You can cultivate self-respect by developing acommitment to your own talents. It may benecessary to do the thing you fear the most inorder to put that fear in rest, so that it can no --80.longer control you.答案:71. focused72. Deep73. does74. what75. While/Although76. succeed77. necessary78. risks79. draining80. to第四篇:Error Correction (15 minutes)Changes in the way people live bring about changes in thejobs that they do. More and more people live in towns and cities instead on farms and in villages. Cities and states have to provide --71. services city people want, such like more police protection, more --72. hospitals, and more schools. This means that more policemen,more nurses and technicians, and more teachers must be hired. Advances in technology has also changed people's lives. --73. Dishwashers and washing machines do jobs that were once doneby the hand. The widespread use of such electrical appliances --74. means that there is a need for servicemen to keep it running --75. properly.People are earning higher wages and salaries. This leads --76. changes in the way of life. As income goes down, people may not --77. want more food to eat or more clothes to wear. But they maywant more and better care from doctors, dentists and hospitals.They are likely to travel more and to want more education Nevertheless, many more jobs are available in these services. --78.The government also affects the kind of works people do. --79.The governments of most countries spend huge sums of moneyfor international defense. They hire thousands of engineers, --80. scientists, clerks, typists and secretaries to work on the manydifferent aspects of defense.答案:71. (instead) on --- of72. like --- as73. has --- have74. the --- /75. it --- them76. leads --- causes77. down --- up78. Nevertheless --- Therefore79. works --- work/job/jobs80. international --- national第五篇:Error Correction (15 minutes)Traditionally, the American farmer has always beenindependent and hard-working. In the eighteenth century farmerswere quite self-sufficient. The farm family grew and made almost nothing it needed. The surplus crop would be sold to buy a new --71. items in the local general store.In 1860, because some of the farm population had moved to --72.the city, yet eighty percent of the American population was still inthe country. In the late nineteen century, farm work and life --73.were not much changed from that they had been in old days. The --74. farmer aroused at dawn or before and had much work to do, with --75. his own muscles like his chief source of power. He used axes, --76. spades and other complicated tools. In his house cooking was done --77. in wood-burning stoves, and the kerosene lamp was the only improvement on the candle. The family's recreation and social life chiefly consisted a drive in the wagon to the nearby small town or --78. village to transact some business as well as to chat with neighborswho had also come to town.The children attended a small elementary school (often ofjust one room) to that they had to walk every day, possibly for a --79. few miles. The school term was short so that the children couldnot help on the farm. Although the whole family worked, and life --80. was not easy, farmers as a class were self-reliant and independent.答案:71. nothing --- everything72. because --- although73. nineteen --- nineteenth74. that --- what75. aroused --- rose/got up76. like --- as77. complicated --- simple78. consisted后加of79. that --- which80. and --- /第六篇:Error Correction (15 minutes)Living is risky. Crossing the road, driving a car,flying, swallowing an aspirin table or eating a chicken sandwich-they can all be fatal.Clearly some risks worth taking, especially when the --61. rewards high: a man surrounded by flames and smoke generally considers that jumping out of a second-floor window is an acceptable risk to save its life. But in --62. medicine a few procedures, drugs, operations or tests --63. are really a mater of life and death. There may besound medicine reasons are totally dependent --64.in the balance of risks and benefits for the --65.patients.Surgery for cancer may cure or prolong a life, butthe removal of tonsils(扁桃体)cannot save anything a --66. sore throat. Blood pressure drugs definitely help some people live after a heart attack, but these same drugsmay be both necessary and harmful for those with only --67. mild blood pressure problems.Deciding how much discomfort and risk we are preparing --68. to put up with in the name of better health is a high --69. personal matter, not a decision we should remain to --70. doctors alone.答案:61. risks ∧worth →are62. its →his63. a few →few64. medicine →medical65. in →on 或upon66. anything ∧a →but 或except67. necessary →unnecessary68. preparing →prepared 或ready 或willing69. high →highly70. remain →leave第七篇:Error Correction (15 minutes)A good way to get information for essays andreports is to interview people who are experts in --71.your topic or whose opinions may be interesting.Interviews are also a good way to get a sampling of people's opinions on various questions. Here aresome suggestions that will help you make most of a --72. planned interview:1. If the person to be interviewed (theinterviewee) is busy, cancel an appointment in --73. advance.2. Prepare your questions before the interview sothat you make best use of your time. In preparingthink about the topic about what the interviewer is --74. likely to know.3. Use your questions, but don't insist in sticking to --75. them or proceeding in the order you have listed.Often the interviewee will have importantinformation that was never occurred to you, or one --76. question may suggest another very useful one.4. If you don't understand something theinterviewee has said, say politely and ask him or --77. her to clarify it or to give an example.5. Take notes, if the interviewee goes too slowly --78. for you, ask him or her to stop for a moment, especially if the point is important. A taperecorder lets you avoid this problem. Therefore, --79.be sure the interviewee agrees to be taped.6. As soon as possible after the interview, readover your notes. They may need clarified while the --80. topic is still fresh in your mind.答案:71. in -- on72. the (most)73. cancel -- make74. interviewer -- interviewee75. in -- on76. 去掉was77.

Planet Earth will be crowded,dirty and lack of resources. A sort of exodus --71.of mankind will begin.Spaceships will be assembled so that theyrevolve around the earth. Some may orbit around Mars. These space stations will be serviced byspace buses. We saw the first space bus launch in --72. April 1981. This was "Columbia", it made several --73. orbits around the earth and then returned, landingon a huge dry lake bed in California. "Columbia"will be used again. Previous spaceships havebeen abandoned, only the nose cone being usedto bring the crews back to earth. --74.Upon established, each space station will --75. generate its own atmosphere and have its own agriculture. It will need to rotation to provide --76.an artificial gravity; people will be forced inwards --77. from the center by centrifugal force.The moon and Mars could become new sources ofnew materials. Driving through space will no --78. longer need Earth fuel- the energy would comefrom the sun. This energy would be converted from --79. electricity to work magnetic rockets.That all sounds quite fantastically but, with --80.the rapid development of moderns technology, who knows about what the future holds?答案:71. lack--short72. launch--launched73. it--which74. crews--crew75. upon--once76. rotation--rotate77. inwards-outwards78. will--would79. from--into80. fantastically--fantastic第九篇:Error Correction (15 minutes)Some people, in all seriousness, say thathumans will be living in space within the next hundred or so years.

Such a place, however, is very good to be true: --72. such a place is nowhere, and that's what the word "Utopia" means. It is made up two Greek words meaning "not a place". --73. The word was first used by Thomas More, a sixteen century --74. English writer whose book Utopia, published in 1516,describing a perfect island country. More's idea for tale came --75. from Plato. Plato's The Republic described what would be a perfect state. Early legends told a perfect place existing --76. somewhere in Atlantic. These legends were no longer believed --77. when the explorations of Americans began, but after More'stime they became common for writers to imagine there places. --78.

Many people justcannot agree what they mean. We asked a lady, who replied that shethought you could tell a well-mannered person on the way they (71) occupied the space around them—for example, when such aperson walks down a street he or she is constantly unaware of (72) others. Such people never bump into other people.However, a second person thought that this was more aquestion of civilized behavior as good manners. Instead, this (73)other person told us a story, it he said was quite well known, (74)about an American who had been invited to an Arab meal at (75)one of the countries of the Middle East. The American hasn’t (76) been told very much about the kind of food he might expect. Ifhe had known about American food, he might have behaved (77) better.Immediately before him was a very flat piece of bread thatlooked, to him, very much as a napkin (餐巾)Picking it (78) up, he put it into his collar, so that it falls across his shirt. (79) His Arab host, who had been watching, said of nothing, but (80) immediately copied the action of his guest.And that, said this second person, was a fine example of good manners.参考答案:71. on →by72. unaware →aware73. as →than74. it →which75. at →in76. hasn’t →hadn’t77.

Similarly, we feel comfortablewith people with physical qualities similar as ours. (71) Y ou may have noticed about how people who live or work (72) closely together come to behave in a similar way. Unconsciously wecopy these we are close to or love or admire. So a spor tsman’s (73)individual way of walking with raised shoulders is imitated by an admired (74) fan; a pair of lovers both shake their heads in the same way; anemployer finds himself duplicating his boss’s habit of wagging (摆动) (75) a pen between his fingers while thinking.In every case, the influential person may consciously notice the (76) imitation but he will feel comfortably in its presence. And if he does (77) notice the matching of his gestures or movements, he finds it pleasinghe is influencing people; they are drawn to them. (78) Sensitive people have been mirroring their friend and acquaintances (79) all their lives, and winning affection and respect in this waywithout aware of their methods. Now, for people who want to win (80) agreement or trust, affection or sympathy, some psychologists recommendthe deliberate use of physical imitation.参考答案:71. as →to72. about →/73. these →those74. admired →admiring75. employer →employee76. consciously →unconsciously77. comfortably →comfortable78. them →him79. friend →friends80.

And any large or rich city is going to attract poor (S1)immigrants, who flood in, filling with hopes of prosperity (S2) which are then often disappointing. There are backward townson the edge of Bombay or Brasilia, just as though there were (S3) on the edge of seventeenth-century London or earlynineteenth century Paris. This is new is in the scale. Descriptions (S4) written by eighteenth-century travelers of the poor of MexicoCity, and the enormous contrasts that was to be found there, (S5) are very dissimilar to descriptions of Mexico City today—the (S6) poor can still be numbered in millions.The whole monstrous growth rests on economicprosperity, but behind it lies two myths: the myth of the city as a (S7) promised land, that attracts immigrants from rural poverty (S8) and brings it flooding into city centers, and the myth of the (S9) country as a Garden of Eden, which, a few generations late, (S10) sends them flooding out again to the suburbs.参考答案:S1.

The (S3) underlying reason for the change is that for information to befair, appropriate, and subjective, it should be reported by the (S4) same kind of population that reads it.A diversity committee composed of reporters, editors, and photographers meets regularly to value the Seattle Times’ (S5) content and to educate the rest of the newsroom staff aboutdiversity issues. In an addition, the paper instituted a content (S6) audit (审查) that evaluates the frequency and manner ofrepresentation of woman and people of color in photographs. (S7) Early audits showed that minorities were picturedfar too infrequently and were pictured with a disproportionate number of negative articles. The audit results from (S8) improvement in the frequency of majority representation and (S9) their portrayal in neutral or positive situations. And, with a (S10) result, the Seattle Times has improved as a newspaper.The diversity training and content audits helped the Seattle Times Companyto win the Personnel Journal Optimal A ward for excellence in managing change.参考答案:71. it → they72. percents → percent73. maintain → maintaining74. subjective → objective75. meets → meet76. 去掉an77. woman → women78. from → in79. majority → minority80. with → as[题目五]2003年12月大学英语六级(CET-6)真题Thomas Malthus published his “E ssay on thePrinciple of Population” almost 200 years ago. Ever since then,forecasters have being warning that worldwide famine was (S1) just around the next corner. The fast-growing population’sdemand for food, they warned, would soon exceed their (S2) supply, leading to widespread food shortages and starvation.But in reality, the world’s total grain harvest has risensteadily over the years. Except for relative isolated trouble (S3) spots like present-day Somalia, and occasional years ofgood harvests, the world’s food crisis has remained just (S4) around the corner. Most experts believe this can continueeven as if the population doubles by the mid-21st century, (S5) although feeding 10 billion people will not be easy forpolitics, economic and environmental reasons. Optimists (S6) point to concrete examples of continued improvementsin yield. In Africa, by instance, improved seed, more (S7) fertilizer and advanced growing practices have more thandouble corn and wheat yields in an experiment. Elsewhere, (S8) rice experts in the Philippines are producing a plant with few (S9) stems and more seeds. There is no guarantee that plantbreeders can continue to develop new, higher-yieldingcrop, but most researchers see their success to date as reason (S10) for hope.参考答案:S1. being →beenS2. their →itsS3. relative →relativelyS4. good →badS5. as →去掉S6. politics →politicalS7. by →forS8. double →doubledS9. more →fewerS10. reason →the reason[题目六]The total net income of society is a big issue concerningthe wealth and strength of the nation.In his book The Wealth ofNations,Adam Smith expressed an important point of view:thecontribution individuals made to society in pursuing their own good is 1.more greater than that made by individuals attempting to benefit society. 2.This kind of“self-interest”and“selfishness”is somewhat attractive,3.because such‘‘self-interest”can bring benefit to others.When one’sown“interest”is combined to the“interest”of others.the total net 4.income of society will certainly increase and the nationwill of course become wealthily become wealthily and powerful.5.Using the total net income of society as our criterion,we call thus explain that the manufacturing of counterfeit goods is to 6.be considered undesirable.Those who make or sell counterfeit goodsmay make a profit,and the waste of resources and manpower 7.caused by counterfeiting will eventually lead to a decrease of totalnet income of society.If we do something about this,it will surely 8.weaken the strength of the nation.A society composing of those who 9.have become rich through counterfeiting and all the rest who havebeen deprived from their wealth is a poor society in which poverty is 10.unevenly distributed.答案:1.made→make2.more great→greater3.and→or4.to→with5.wealthily→wealthy6.that→why7.and→but8.something→nothing9.composing→composed10.from→of[题目七]When we mention China’s ancient civilization,we thinkof the Four Great Inventions--paper,gunpowder,the compassand printing.which have had an immeasurable impact to 1.the development of world culture,military affairs,andcommunications and transportation.The science and technologyof ancient China no doubt occupy a very important and 2.prominent position in the scientific and technological historyof the world.yet modern science and technology did notoriginate in China.Why is that modem science and technology did not 3.originate in China?

If it is a good shop, no assistant will approach to you with the inevitable --77. greeting: "Can I help you, Sir?" You needn't buy anything if you don't want. In a bookshop anassistant should remain the background until you --78. have finished browsing. Then, only then, are hisservices necessary.

Every normal person isexpert in the skill of pronouncing his own language, and --71--few people are even moderately proficient at pronouncingforeign languages. Now there are many reasons about this, --72-- some obvious, some perhaps not so obvious. But I suggestthat the fundamental reason why people in general do notspeak foreign languages very better than they do is that --73--they fail to grasp the true name of the problem of learningto pronounce, and consequently never set about tacklingit by the right way. Far too many people fail to realize --74--that pronounce a foreign language is a skill, one that --75--needs careful training of a special kind, and one thatcannot be acquired by just leaving it to take care of himself. --76--I think even teachers of language, while recognizing theimportance of a good accent, tend to neglect, in their practical teaching, the branch of study concerning with speaking the --77-- language.

There are great many reasons for studying what philosophers 1.________ have said in the past. One is that we cannot separate thehistory of philosophy from which of science. Philosophy is 2.________large discussion about matters on which few people are quite 3.________ certain, and those few hold opposite opinions. As knowledgeincreases, philosophy buds off the sciences.For an example, in the ancient world and the Middle Ages 4.________ philosophers discussed motion. Aristotle and St. ThomasAquinas taught that a moving body would slow down until a force 5.________ were constantly applied to it. They were wrong. It goes on movingunless something slows it down. But they had good arguments ontheir side, and if we study these, and the experimentswhich proved them right this will help us to distinguish truth 6.________ from false in the scientific controversies of today. 7.________We also see how different philosopher reflects the social 8.________life of his day. Plato and Aristotle, in the slave-owning societyof ancient Greece, thought man’s highest state was contemplationrather than activity. In the Middle Ages St. Thomasbelieved a regular feudal system of nine ranks of angels. Herbert 9.________ Spencer, in the time of free competition between capitalists,found the key to progress as the survival of the fittest. Thus 10.________ Marxism is seen to fit into its place as the philosophy forthe workers, the only class with a future.Passage 2The white House began to be built in 1792, but it was notcompleted until ten years later. Every American president livedin it except for George Washington, although he did have a 1.________majority part in designing it. 2.________The government held a competition to choose the bestdesign for the president’s house.

When he and his wife moved onto the new house 6.________in November, 1800, work was still going on, although the mainlive area was completed. The whole work did not finish until the 7.________ administration of the 3rd president, Thomas Jefferson.Twelve years later, the British army invaded Washingtonand burned the White House. The fire completely destroyed theinside of the building and experts said the White House was so 8.________ dangerous to live in. Later on workers rebuilt the inside of theWhite House. More offices were added, most of which underground. 9.________ None of the work, however, changed the appearing of 10.________the building. Many people asked why the president’s house iscalled the White House. Historians say it has been so calledsimply because it was painted white.passage 3When some nineteenth century New Yorkers said “Harlem”,they meant almost all of Manhattan above Eighty-sixth Street.Toward the end of the century, however, a groupof citizens in upper Manhattan-want perhaps, to shape a closer 1._________ and more precise sense of community—designated a section thatthey wished to have known as Harlem. The chosen area was theHarlem which Blacks were moving in the first decades of the 2.________new century as they left their old settlements on the middle andlower blocks of the West Side.As the community became predominantly Black, the veryword “Harlem” seemed to lose its old meaning.

Blacks living thereused the word as though they had coined it on themselves—not 7.________ only to designate their area of residence but to express theirsense of the various qualities of its life and atmosphere. As theyears passed, “Harlem” asserted an even larger meaning. In 8.________the words of Adam Clayton Powell, Sr., the pastor of theAbyssinian Baptist Church, Harlem “became the symbol of libertyand the Promised Land to Negroes everywhere”.By 1919 Harlem’s population had grown by several thousand.It had received its share of wartime migration from the South,the Caribbean, and parts of colonial Africa. Some of thenew arrivals merely lived for Harlem; it was New York they had 9.________ come to, looking for jobs and for all the other legendary opportunitiesof life in the city. To others who migrated to Harlem, NewYork was merely the city in which they found themselves:Harlem was exactly what they wished to be. 10.________Passage 4After months of speculation about what woulddo with its mysterious search-engine company, A9, Websurfers finally got their first taste on Apr. 14.Yet despite of some intriguing new features not yet found 1. ____on leading sites such as Google and Yahoo! , the site() -- still in test mode -- rises as many questions 2 ____ as it answers.The biggest question remains is whether Amazon, 3. ____through A9, would clash into Google more directly. 4. ____Google itself is testing a search engine for productscalled Froogle that’s starting to appeal Web shoppers. 5. ___At the same time, Amazon clearly isn’t looking to limit A9’s horizons.

While you have completed the overall 5.________ goal, you know you have progressed toward it.A second block to obtaining closure is unfinishedbusiness. You may have several tasks with the samedeadline. If changing from one task to another serves 6. ________ as a break, changing tasks too often waste time. 7. ________ Each time you switch, you lose momentum.

例1His persistence was awarded when the car finally started.1.__________句中“ award ”是“颁发,授予(奖赏)”之义,而文中要表达的意思是“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 .例2Deciding how much discomfort and risk we are prepared to put up with in the name of better health is a highly personal matter, not a decision we should remain to doctors 1.__________ alone.“ remain ”意为“保持,仍然”,是一个表示状态的动词,其用法和系动词“ be ”相似,后面所接成分一般是名词或形容词,作表语,而“ leave sth. to sb. ”意思是“把某物留给某人”。
本句很明显是“ leave…to… ”的句型,所以应该把remain 改为leave .例3Of course the press means more than newspaper. A vastamount of magazines are published, aimed at readers1.__________interested in all sorts of subjects.因为amount 表示数量时只与不可数名词连用,而本句中后面所接名词为“ magazines ”,是复数名词,应该使用表示复数形式的number ,故应该把amount 改为number .例4Today, flint has small importance as an industrial product.1.__________“small”用于表示人或物的体积尺寸,不能修饰抽象名词importance ,因此应把small 改为可以修饰不可数抽象名词的little .练习题1 Industry officials predicted that mobile communicationsservice will soon be comparative in many respects to the 1.__________ service provided by telephone that do not move.2 In today's society, “Smoking effects your health” has 2.__________become a warning which is known to almost every house hold.3 For his outstanding achievements in graduate teachinghe is held in big esteem by his students and colleagues. 3.__________4 Supersonic craft may disturb the upper atmosphere tosuch an extent that dangerous radiation from the sun mightreach the earth, with unimaginative effects on life there. 4.__________5 In the late nineteen century, farm work and life were not 5.__________much changed from what they had been in the old days.6 Deciding how much discomfort and risk we are preparedto put up with in the name o better health is a high personal 6.__________ matter, not a decision we should remain to doctors alone. 7.__________7 Whenever the subject of smoking and health is risen, 8.__________the governments of most countries hears no evil, see no eviland smell no evil.8 If I were to live my life over again, I would pay moreattention to the cultivation of the memory.

六、名词的错误
一般来说名词错误是指误用了某个在形式上或意义上与正确的单词相似的单词,包括名词单复数的误用,可数名词和不可数名词的混淆,抽象名词和具体名词的混用以及词数的表达错误等类型,如find a work →find a job ;woman doctors →women doctors ;these phenomenon →these phenomena 等。
例1
Between sunrise and sunset, streets and highways
are a constant source of voice from cars, buses and
1.__________
trucks.
原文中讲述的是噪音污染,voices 是指人的声音或者比较抽象的声音,根据常识轿车公共汽车以及卡车发出的声音必然是噪音,所以此处的voice 应该改为noise 。
例2
My dream was to find a piece of place, and build
1.__________
a house for one’s family.
此句中的place 在此处为可数名词,不需要在前面加上 a piece of 便可直接跟在不定冠词a 后面,而land 为不可数名词,不能直接跟不定冠词,所以应该将a piece of 改为a place ,或者直接将place 改为land 。
根据改错原则,应该将place 改为land 。
例3
Anyone understood the life and death importance
1.__________
of family cooperation and hard work.
此句中的anyone 不太符合上下文语意场的要求,一般来说anyone 使用于否定句或者疑问句型中,在肯定某一事实时,应该使用everyone 取代anyone 。
例4
If indeed silence is golden, it is also becoming as rare
as gold. It seems that the progresses of man includes
1.__________
a rising volume of noise.
此句中结构十分完整,然而通读整段文字可发现,这句话的主谓不一致。
错在progress 上,progress 作进步讲时是不可数名词,没有复数形式,故应将progresses 改为progress 。
练习题
1 I told her not to use the office phone for personal call.
1.__________
2 He left words with my mother that he would come
to help me in the afternoon and kept his words.
2.__________
3 Father went to his doctor for advices about his heart
3.__________
trouble.
4 Tom, will you boys play soldiers outside? There’s not
enough rooms for you here.
4.__________
5 If by chance someone comes to see me, ask them to
leave a notice.
5.__________
6 In order to buy a nice pair of shoes, he went to two
shoes stores.
6.__________
7 Sensitive people have been mirroring their friend
7.__________
and acquaintances all their lives, and winning affection
and respect in this way without being aware of their
methods.
8 But we must keep in head the billions of dollars
8.__________
we might spend in carrying out the project.
9 I turned into the first sock shop that caught my
eyes, and a clerk who could not have been more
9.__________
than seventeen years old came forward.
10 In many shops the customer has to wait for
someone to wait upon him. And when finally some
clerks does design to notice you, you are made to
10.__________
fell as if you were interrupting him.
答案解析:
1.call→calls。
因为call为可数名词。
2.第二个words→word。
“keep one’s word”为固顶短语,意为“遵守诺言”。
3.advices→advice。
因为advice不可数。
4.rooms→room。
因为当room表示“空间”的意思时,room为不可数名词。
5.notice→note。
根据语境,这里表达的是“留便条”,应该用“leave a note or message”,而notice的意思是“通知”,不符合题意要求。
6.shoes→shoe。
当名词作定语表类别,一般用名词的单数形式。
7.friend→friends。
8.head→mind。
“keep sth. In mind”为固定搭配,表示“记住,牢记”的意思。
9.eyes→eye。
“catch one’s eye”是固定短语,表示“引起某人注意”的意思。
10.clerks→clerk。
此句中,由后面的him可知“some clerk”并不是指“一些店员”,而是不定指,表示某个“店员”的意思。
