2.00）
__________________________________________________________________________________________
解析：
2.The two most celebrating holidays in the North and South America, Australia and Europe, and in most of Christian world are Christmas and Easter.
（分数：2.00）
填空项1:__________________ （正确答案：正确答案：非谓语动词误用，应把celebrating改为celebrated。

）
解析：解析：celebrate和holidays在逻辑上是动宾关系，即“节日被人们庆祝”，因此使用其过去分词。

3.This normally takes from five days to one week for a person to adapt to reversed routine of sleep and wakefulness, sleeping during the day and working at night.
（分数：2.00）
填空项1:__________________ （正确答案：正确答案：形式主语错误，应把句首的This改为It。

）
解析：解析：该句真正的主语是后面的不定式，由于主语太长，所以将其放在句尾，并用It作形式主语，且It takes sb．sometime to do sth．为固定表达。

4.The millions of calculations involved, if they had been done by hand, all practical value have lost by the time they were finished.
（分数：2.00）
填空项1:__________________ （正确答案：正确答案：虚拟语气错误，应在have前加上would。

）
解析：解析：本句包含了与过去事实相反的虚拟条件句，从句谓语动词使用了had+过去分词，主句谓语动词应使用would／could／should／might+have+过去分词。

句意为“如此之大的计算量，如果用手工计算的话，等到完成的时候也失去了所有的实用价值。

”根据句意，在have前加上would最合适。

5.The man who was driving the truck would not admit that he had been at fault, and neither the other driver.
（分数：2.00）
填空项1:__________________ （正确答案：正确答案：倒装句错误，应在neither后面加上would。

）解析：解析：neither后面的句子没有谓语，应该加上would。

neither用作副词，作“也不”解释，放在句首，表示前面否定的内容也适用于另一个人或物，句子需采用部分倒装，因此把would加到neither后面。

6.In an attempt to find out how different creatures see the world, psychologists at Brown University in the U. S. had been comparing the behavior of birds and humans.
（分数：2.00）
填空项1:__________________ （正确答案：正确答案：时态错误，应把had been comparing改为have been comparing。

（分数：2.00）
填空项1:__________________ （正确答案：正确答案：主谓不一致，应把produce改为produces。

）
解析：解析：that引导的定语从句修饰先行词stimulus，这个词看似复数形式，其实是单数，表示“刺激，刺激物”，其复数形式为stimuli，因此从句的谓语应该使用单数形式。

8.Unlike many mid-century papers, The Columbian, publishing every Saturday in Olympia, one of Washington's largest towns, was "neutral in politics" , meaning that it was not the organ of a
particular political party or religious group.
（分数：2.00）
填空项1:__________________ （正确答案：正确答案：非谓语动词误用，应把publishing改为published。

）解析：解析：publish与前面提到的报纸The Columbian是动宾关系，因此应该使用过去分词形式表被动。

（分数：2.00）
填空项1:__________________ （正确答案：正确答案：虚拟语气错误，应将might be改为should be
或者be。

）
解析：解析：for fear that意为“以免……”，其引导的状语从句要使用虚拟语气，谓语用should+动词原形，should可以省略。

11.Not only tears keep your eyes lubricated, they also contain a substance that kills certain bacteria so that they can't infect your eyes.
（分数：2.00）
填空项1:__________________ （正确答案：正确答案：倒装句错误，应在tears前加上助动词do。

）
解析：解析：这是not only放在句首的倒装句，要使用部分倒装，把助动词do提到主语tears前面。

12.The money they invest for training also more highly concentrated on professional and managerial employees.
（分数：2.00）
填空项1:__________________ （正确答案：正确答案：语态错误，应在also前面加上is，变成被动语态。

（分数：2.00）
填空项1:__________________ （正确答案：正确答案：从句引导词错误，应把what改为that。

）

（分数：2.00）
填空项1:__________________ （正确答案：正确答案：定语从句的关系词误用，应把which改为where 或者在which前加上in。

）
解析：解析：此处定语从句的先行词是position，而定语从句中的引导词在句子中作状语，因此需要使用关系副词where，或者in which。

16.According to United States Coast Guard requirements, life preservers must be simple in design, reversible, capable of be quickly adjusted to fit the uninitiated individual, and must be so designed as to support the wearer in the water in an upright or slightly backward position. （分数：2.00）

填空项1:__________________ （正确答案：正确答案：语态错误，应在prescribed前加上are。

”

（分数：2.00）
填空项1:__________________ （正确答案：正确答案：主谓不一致，应把are改为is。

）
解析：解析：本句中的waste and poison(有毒的废物)是属于同位语等立关系，该词组中and的含义实际上和with相似，因此，必须作单数看待。

类似的词组有：bacon and eggs(腊肉荷包蛋)，bread and butter(黄油面包)，truth and honesty(真诚)等。

26.Either reading aloud of poetry or reciting it by heart compel the students to study their meaning closely.

）
解析：解析：在英语中，either…or…，neither…nor…连接的复合主语，其谓语单复数形式取决于离它最近的主语单复数情况，在本题中，reciting it by heart是离谓语最近的主语，因此谓语用单数形式。
