　　大学专八英语考试改错练习题及答案 1

　　Demographic indicators show that Americans in the post war period were more eager than ever to establish families. They quickly brought down the age at marriage for both men and women and brought the birth rate to a twentieth century height __1__ after more than a hundred years of a steady decline, producing the “baby boom.” __2__

　　These young adults established a trend of early marriage and relatively large families that went for more than two decades and caused a major but temporary __3__ reversal of long-term demographic patterns.

　　From the 1940s through the early 1960s, Americans married at a high rate and at a younger age than their __4__

　　Europe counterparts. __5__ Less noted but equally more significant, the men and women who formed __6__ families between 1940 and 1960 nevertheless reduced the divorce rate after a __7__ postwar peak; their marriages remained intact to a greater extent than did that of __8__ couples who married in earlier as well as later decades.

　　Since the United States __9__ maintained its dubious distinction of having the highest divorce rate in the world, the temporary decline in divorce did not occur in the same extent in Europe. __10__ Contrary to fears of the experts, the role of breadwinner and homemaker was not abandoned.

　　参考答案及解析:

　　1. 将height改为high/peak。

　　整句话的大意为他们把男女的婚龄降了下来，使出生率达到了20世纪的高峰。

　　high可以用作名词，意为“高峰”，“高水准”，“最高纪录”。

　　height可以作“极点，顶点”解释。例如：The height of cleverness is to conceal one’s cleverness。

　　2. 将第二个不定冠词a 去掉。

　　steady decline 意为持续的.下降，前面不用加冠词。又如：years of hard work。根据语感可以判断出来。

　　3. 在went后加on，或将went改为lasted。

　　此处是“持续”的意思，所以可以用went on 或者last来表达。

　　4. 将high改为higher。

　　此处意为美国人结婚率比以前提高了，有与战前相比的意思，因此应用比较级。

　　5. 将Europe改为European。

　　6. 删掉more。此处的大意为战后离婚率也下降了，这个现象不大有人注意，但同样也很重要。另外，more与equally相矛盾。

　　7. 将nevertheless改为also或者删掉nevertheless。

　　此处上下文之间不是转折关系，而是递进关系。

　　8. 将that 改为those。

　　此处的代词应指marriages这个复数名词，因此应用those。此处考察代词与先行词一致的问题。

　　9. 将Since改为Although/Though/While。此处是转折关系，不是因果关系。

　　10. 将in改为to。短语to the extent是固定搭配。

　　大学专八英语考试改错练习题及答案 2

　　I have come in China for two years. My friends in 1. __________ England sometimes write to me, ask me how long 2. __________ I’ll stay here, when I’m thinking of returning 3. __________ home. The answer of their questions is simple: I 4. __________ do not know when I return home. At the moment, 5. __________ I have no reason to return back to England. I like 6. __________ living in China; I enjoy meeting Chinese people 7. __________ and travel around the country. My work is very 8. __________

　　interested, and there are so many things I don’t know 9. __________ about China that I hope to discover it in the future. 10. ________

　　【答案解析】

　　1. 将come改为been。come是终止性动词，不与时间段连用。

　　2. 将ask改为asking。现在分词作伴随状语。

　　3. 在when前加and。 when引导的从句与how long引导的从句是两个并列的宾语从句(作asking的宾语)。

　　4. 将of改为to。在answer, key, way, entrance等名词后，习惯上用介词to。

　　5. 在return前加will。这是将来时。注意：不要误以为when引导的是时间状语从句，用一般现在时代替将来时。事实上，when引导的是宾语从句。

　　6. 去掉back或将return改为go。因为return=go back。

　　7. 此行正确。

　　8. 将travel改为traveling。因为traveling与meeting并列，作enjoy的`宾语。

　　9. 将interested改为interesting。表示某事物“令人……的”用-ing形容词;-ed形容词则表示某人“感到……的”。

　　10. 将it改为them。因为此处是指many things。

　　大学专八英语考试改错练习题及答案 3

　　Psychologically there are two dangers to be guarded against in old age. One of these is due absorption in the past. It does not __1__work to live in memories, in regrets for the good old days, or in __2__sadness about friends who are dead. Ones thoughts must be directed to the future, and to things which there is something to be done. __3__This is not always easy; ones own past is a gradually increasing weight. It is easy to think for oneself that onts emotions __4__

　　are used to be more vivid than they are, and ones mind more __5__keen. If this is true it should be forgotten, and if it is forgotten it will probably not be true.

　　The other thing to be avoided is clinging to youth in hope of __6__sucking vigour from its vitality. When your children are growing up __7__they want to live their own lives, and if you continue to be as interested in them as you were when they were young, you are likely to become a burden to them, except they are unusually callous. I do not __8__mean that one should be without interest in them, but ones interest should be contemplatory and, if possible, philanthropic, but not __9__unduly emotional. Animals become indifferent to their young as soon as their young can look after themselves, but human beings, owing to the length of infantry, find this difficult. __10__

　　答案及解析:

　　1.due-undue

　　如果是due absoption，就没有必要说two dangers to guarded against，所以这里犯了语义颠倒的错误。

　　2.work-do

　　work在这里用得不好，应该为do，表示“能……”，work往往表示“行不行得通”，如：It does not work to employ two people. We need at least 5.

　　3.^which-about

　　这里缺少了介词about，使先行词things 和something to be done无法连接。

　　4.for-to

　　to think for oneself表示“为自己着想”，这这里显然不是这个意思，应改为to oneself 表示“自己想……”，类似于to say to oneself。

　　5.are(used)-/

　　be used to 表示“习惯于……”，而这里的意思是“过去曾经……”，所以应改为used to do。

　　6.^hope-the

　　词组in the hope of 或 in hopes of 表示“怀着……的希望”。

　　7.growing-grown

　　be growing up 表示“在成长的过程中”，而这里表示的是“当孩子们长大以后……”，所以应改为are grown up。

　　8.except-unless

　　except表示“除了……之外”，在意思上不贴切，应改为unless表示“除非……”。

　　9.contemplatory-contemplative

　　没有contemplatory这个词，有的是contemplative，表示“沉思的'，冥想的”

　　10.infantry-infancy

　　大学专八英语考试改错练习题及答案 4

　　When a human infant is born into any community in any part of the world it has two things in common with any infant, pro- __1__vided neither of them have been damaged in any way either be- __2__fore or during birth. Firstly, and most obviously, newborn children are completely helpless. Apart from a powerful capacity to pay attention to their helplessness by using sound, there is nothing __3__the newborn child can do to ensure his own survival. Without care from some other human being or beings, be it mother, grandmother, or human group, a child is very unlikely to survive.

　　This helplessness of human infants is in marked contrast with the capacity of many newborn animals to get on their feet __4__within minutes of birth and run with the herd within a few hours. Although young animals are certainly in risk, sometimes __5__for weeks or even months after birth, compared with the human infant they very quickly develop the capacity to fend for them. __6__It is during this very long period in which the human infant is totally dependent on the others that is reveals the second fea- __7__ture which is shares with all other undamaged human infants, a capacity to learn language. For this reason, biologists now suggest that language be “species-specific ” to the human race, that is __8__to say, they consider the human infant to be genetic programmed __9__in such way that it can acquire language. This suggestion implies __10__that just as human beings are designed to see three-dimensionally and in color, and just as they are designed t stand upright rather than to move on all fours, so they are designed to learn and use language as part of their normal development as well-formed human beings.

　　答案：

　　1.and ^ infant 加入other。根据上下文，这里主要指的是与其他婴儿相比，不是与任何一个婴儿相比

　　2.have 改成has。Neither 后面跟单数形式。

　　3.pay attention改成draw/ attract/ call .这事一个用词不当的.错误，应是引起别人注意的意思。

　　4.get on their feet on 改成to。 Get to their feet 指站立。

　　5.in risk 或 in risk 改成at或danger。这里可以有两种改法，改成at risk，或是in danger

　　6.fend for them 改成themselves。这里的主语与濒于同指young animals, 因此要用反身代词

　　7.on the others 删掉the ，这里指的是其他人，不是其他婴儿。

　　8.language be be改成is。这里suggest不指建议，他指的是提出(看法等)，因此不需要用动词原形

　　9.genetic 改成genetically。这里应该是个副词。

　　10.such ^ way 加入a。way 在这里是可数名词，因此要加入不定冠词。

　　大学专八英语考试改错练习题及答案 5

　　The great whales are among the most fascinating creatures which __1__have ever lived on the earth, and one of them, the blue whale, is the largest. People in ancient times thought whales as fearsome __2__monsters of the ocean depths. So to hunt a whale, when one occasionally swam toward shore, he was high adventure. People __3__found the adventure was rewarding, too, for the oil and meat fromone whale alone could heat and feed a village for a whole winter.

　　Whales resemble huge fish. They were referred by the ancients as __4__“great fish,” and any whale beaching along the coasts of England was designated “the King’s fish” because it automatically belonged to the Crown.

　　Ever since those early times, human have felt whales a sense of __5__wonder mixed with an intense desire to capture, slaughter, and exploit. Now the slaughter has reached alarming proportions. __6__Even though some species are protected by the regulations of the International Whaling Commission and theoretically all whalehunting is regulated, but the earth’s stock of whales is still being __7__depleted. In fact, some scientists worry that 100 years since now __8__ there may be no whales left. If this happens, mankind will be blame for removing from the earth forever a remarkable and __9__awe-inspiring creature that always fed man’s imagination and __10__ made the world a more exciting place.

　　答案

　　1. 将which改为that。先行词由最高修饰时定语从句的关系代词只能用that。

　　2. 在thought 后面加of，或者将thought 改为regarded。“think of A as B”，指“把A看作B”，为固定搭配。

　　3. 去掉he。这句话的.主语是“to hunt a whale”，“to hunt a whale was high adventure”。中间的“when…”只是插入的状语从句。

　　4. 在referred后加to。“refer to A as B”只“把A称作B”，这句话的意思是“古人把鲸称作大鱼”。

　　5. 在felt 后加for。这句话实际的结构是“feel a sense of wonder for whales”指“对鲸怀有惊奇的感觉”，for引出对象。

　　6. 在exploit后加them。capture，slaughter，exploit都是及物动词，后面必须加宾语。

　　7. 去掉but。前面已有“even though”，后面就不应该再用but。

　　8 .将since改为from。“100 years from now”指“从现在起100年后”since 只能用于完成时。

　　9. 在blame前加to。“be to blame for sth ”指“对某事应负责任”，为固定搭配。

　　10. 在always前加has。这个定语从句强调对现在的影响，很明显应该用完成时，不能用过去式。
