专八改错训练之错词考点
错词原因很多,归纳起来,有以下几个方面:
1. 时态、语态误用
例1 The time passes quickly.
分析:原文讲的是上周游览峨眉山,故将passes改为passed。
例2 Books must be keep for four weeks.
分析:根据句意,该句为被动语态,故将keep改为kept。
2. 非谓语动词误用
例1 I was often a little tired after a day’s work and watch TV demands very little effort.
分析:and并列结构之后缺少一个主语,故将watch改为watching。
3. 主谓是否一致、主语和代词是否一致
例1 Now my picture and the prize is hanging in the library.
分析:句中my picture and the prize为并列主语,谓语动词应用复数形式,故将is改为are。
例2 The Smiths did his best to make me feel at home.
分析:句子的主语为复数,与之相应的人称代词his应改为their。
4. 形容词和副词(比较等级)的误用
例1 As a result, people in the modern world generally live much more longer than people in the past.
分析:longer本身即构成比较级,故将more去掉。
例2 After learning the basic of the subject, nothing else seemed very practically to me.
分析:连系动词后要用形容词,故将practically改为practical。
5. 连接词的`误用
例1 The food was expensive and the service was good.
分析:the food was expensive与the service was good 是转折关系,不是并列关系,故应将and改为but。
例2 I told Mother, Father, Sister and all my friends that a great time I had.
分析:此句中含一个感叹句作told的宾语,故应将that改为what才正确。
6. 思维定势的干扰
例 I also enjoyed the evening when we spent together.
分析:尽管evening是时间名词,但是spend是及物动词,需要关系代词作宾语,故应将when改为which / that, 或者将when去掉。
7. 句式结构中平行、并列关系混乱
例1 It was very kind of you to meet me at the railway station and drove me to your home.
分析:句中drove应改为drive, 才能与前面的to meet保持平行并列关系。
例2 As we climbed the mountains, we fed monkeys, visiting temples and told stories.
分析:句中用了三个并列的谓语动词,故应将visiting改为visited。
8. 行文逻辑错误
例1 Now someone at home reads instead.
分析:根据上文可知,电视机卖掉以后全家人都看书,故应someone 改为 everyone。
