英语改错技巧小结

技巧总结名词错误的可能：（1）名词单复数：这种要点的考察频率相当高，要特别注意！！形容词错误的可能：（1）意思颠倒，要改成反义词：看到错的句子有形容词，先上下文看看，有没有意思反了（2）词性错误：2个形容词在一起，那肯定有一个是修饰另外一个的，所以要改成副词介词错误的可能性（1）固定短语的搭配问题，不如the key to, the answer to, be faced with等这个错错每次改错题目都有，所以看到错的句子有介词，先看左右，有没有搭配错误、连词错误的可能性（1）承上启下的错误：有时候，表示递进的，但题目中给出even if，所以要把if去掉；有时表原因的，但题目中是therefore，所以要改成because。这样的错误也时常出现，但不是每次出现（2）非限制性宾语从句只能由which引导，题目中很会用that来误倒代词错误的可能性（1）代词与先行词不一致前面说了是单数，后面用了them，所以要改成it。这类的错误也经常发生动词错误的可能性考察也相当重要！！（1）时态错误：明明文章在说过去的事情，但用了个is，所以要改成was 这个错错每次改错题目都有，所以看到错的句子有动词，先看上下，有没有时态问题（2）主谓不一致：they was doing ……这样的错误，找不出么，6级也别考了（3）非谓语动词提前形式的错误：viewed……，they were doing……像这样的情况，viewed 就要改成viewing，如果后面是it,前面是 ing 形式，也要注意的（4）平行结构错误：前面连着两句都是to做什么，to做什么and do什么，这时候就要在这个do前加to，如果是to doing，就要改成to do 以上这些错误在考试中占6-7分左右，大家可以一定要抓住，后面的分数就难拿了高考短文改错题具有“高起点、低落点”的特点，对学生的语言感觉和语言能力要求较高，但改正的错误往往比较简单。综合近年的高考题我们可以看出主要在以下语法项目上设题： 1.名词和限制词的搭配主要涉及可数与不可数名词与冠词、指示代词、物主代词的错误搭配，以及名词的单复数的误用。 2.动词的时态、语态以及非谓语动词常出现在总体时态为过去或现在时中间杂有另一时态的现象，以及动词的谓语与非谓语形式、非谓语动词之间的误用。 3.代词的误用

大学英语四级口语改错(15)

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,

高考英语短文改错技巧总结版,考生必看!

短文改错对考生的要求较高，是对语言知识综合运用能力的考查，检测考生发现、判断、纠正文章错误的能力，进而考查学生的词法、句法及行文逻辑等方面的水平。考生在该项上往往失分较多，对该题感到束手无策。但是，如果解题时能从有效掌握解题思路、出题规律及破解题目关键两大处入手，此类题目就会迎刃而解。短文改错解题思路和检查原则 1. 句中各部分的结构是否完整，特别是每个句子要有动词； 2. 谓语动词的时态、语态； 3. 非谓语动词的用法； 4. 名词的单、复数，格的使用是否正确； 5. 定冠词和不定冠词是否正确； 6. 代词的格和性的使用是否有误； 7. 定语从句中关系代词、关系副词是否准确无误； 8. 并列句中的并列连词、主从复合句中的从属连词用的是否得当。短文改错解题四原则改动以最少为原则；虚词以添加或删除为原则；实词以改变词形为原则；以保持句子原意为原则。解题注意要点和能力培养 1. 核对错项时，若的确有一时难以改出的地方，可以参考所改动项是否基本符合“１：1：8”的比例。即多一词1个，缺词1个，错词8个。 2. 核对改正的语法项目是否有重复。因为短文改错往往覆盖面广，一般不会出现重复考查某个语法点的现象。 3. 核对答题符号是否规范，位置是否准确，看看有无遗漏符号、忽略字母大小写和拼写等问题。

解题思路（三步解题法）第一步：快速浏览全文，把握文章的主要时态、人称及文章的主旨大意，顺便标记自己一眼就能看出的错误。第二步：细读文章，找出错误并改正。一般要结合文章的上下文以及出题规律来做题。第三步：代入正确答案通读全文，看其是否通顺。出题规律及破解关键高考短文改错一般会在以下八个方面进行设题。 1. 动词：主要考查时态、主谓一致和固定搭配。例如： ①时态混用 Then the trouble started. We can’t open the door. So we asked the policeman for help. 。）（很显然此段的主时态是一般过去式，因此应把can’ｔ改为couldn’ｔ ②主谓不一致 There were a football game on TV last Saturday evening. （a football game决定了谓语动词用单数，故应该把were改为was。） ③固定搭配 He had little money left, so he had to give up buy the computer. （give up doing sth.是固定用法，故动词buy应该改为buying。） 2. 名词：主要考查单复数混用。例如： Helen is seventeen year old. She is very busy. （表示“年龄多大了”应该为复数形式，故应把year改为years。） 3. 形容词/副词：主要考查两者之间是否混用。例如： ①副词代替正确形容词 During the football season, Helen is much busier than usually. （很明显是“与平时相比较更忙”，因此需要把usually改为usual。） ②形容词代替正确副词 As the time clock showed one minute and forty-two seconds left in the game, she began cheering excited, “Come on —get going!” （显然应把excited改为excitedly，用来修饰动词cheer。） 4. 介词：主要考查固定搭配，特别是动词和介词的搭配。例如： ①介词遗漏 I’m sure you will get rid the sorrow and unhappiness caused by the disaster. （get rid of 是固定搭配，意为“摆脱，除去”。） ②介词多余 My wife is also happy because of I have given up smoking.

【解题技巧】 1、通读全文，了解短文大意，把握全篇的时态、人称及行文逻辑，尤其是有的行文逻辑方面的错误在看单句时难以发现错误（比如前文用mike，后文代词用she等）。在通读全文时把一些容易的错误先改好，再进行分句改错。 2、分局阅读，逐行找错。在完成第一步后，要进行逐行主句的改错。这是要对文中的词法、句法和语篇角度着重分析和特别注意。 3、最后把改好的短文再阅读一遍，检查答案是否正确，感觉是否还有不妥之处，最终形成定稿。【考查要点】 1 词法的测试： 2 定冠词和不定冠词的用法，即a, an, the三者的转化与增减。例：A beauty of the West Lake is more than I can describe.正解：A--The 3 名词的单复数和名词所有格。例：More than one students can’t take in it.正解：students—student 4 动词的时态、语态、语气，情态动词和非谓语动词。

初中英语短文改错技巧

初中英语短文改错技巧一短文改错命题规律分析（一）考查表现英语学科显著特点的曲折附加成分。英语学科的显著特点是指拼音文字所特有的表现形式，如动词的曲折变化，名词的曲折变化，代词的曲折变化，形容词副词比较等级的的曲折变化等。 A.动词的曲折变化。英语动词多变的外在形式，包括动词现在时第三人称单数，动词过去时，过去分词，现在分词及动名词等，在这一类型的命题占相当比例，一般为5处左右,应切实引起重视。 B.名词复数的曲折变化。 C.代词的曲折变化。 D.形容词，副词比较等级的曲折变化。 E.词性的变化。（二）考查学生受本族语影响容易犯的错误。（三）考查学生在运用英语过程中可能出现的错误，如：忽视句意的逻辑关系；忽视近似词语的差异；多用汉语表达中有而英语表达中无的词；忽视词与词，句与句的并列或从属关系。二短文改错解题步骤与技巧１通读全文，把握大意。短文改错不同于单词改错，它涉及逻辑行文错误，及句子与句子之间必要的联系。单独看可能是对的，但从整体看却与上下文不符，因此，事先必须通读全文，把握文章的大意及上下文之间的联系。２记住多，漏，错及正确项命题的数量比例。在短文改错中正确项一般只有一个，多项１到２个，漏项１到２个，错项５个左右。这一特点告诉我们应从哪些方面去发现错误，怎样改正错误。３分句阅读，从以下几个方面去发现问题。

１）实词的曲折变化，如动词的时态，语态变化，现在时第三人称单数形式变化，非谓语动词的形式变化，名词的单复数变化，代词与格的变化，形容词，副词比较等级的变化等。２）冠词，不定式符号，不定代词等一些名词前的限定词是否多用，少用或错用。３）句子中的平行现象以及上下文中的一致现象。４）表示肯定与否定，全否定与部分否定，转折，让步，因果关系的词是否用得恰当，是否影响了句子与句子之间的逻辑关系。４复读全文，消除疏忽。做完后，应把改正后答案放在短文中去复读一遍，一查是否通顺恰当，二查该加符号的地方是否用了该用的符号，以保证答题的准确率。短文改错题综合性强、难度大、考查的知识面广。做此类题时，学生往往感到无从下手。或顾此失彼。笔者认为，要做好这类题，重要的是要有扎实的语言基础，学生不仅要掌握扎实的语法知识，还要有较强的阅读理解和分析判断能力。其次，要掌握一定的解题方法。教师在日常教学中，除了听、说、读、写的全面训练，还要有目的、有步骤、循序渐进地提高学生的解题能力。一、归纳、分析错误现象，提高运用英语的准确性由于英、汉两种语言之间的差异，由于学习中的主、客观原因，在学习英语的过程中学生难免会犯各种各样的错误。在初学阶段，专家认为不必在学生的错误上做文章，这是有道理的。但到了高中阶段，学生已经掌握了一定的英语基础知识和基本技能，理应提高运用英语的准确性的要求。这也正是从1991年起高考试题中出现短文改错题的原因。要提高学生运用英语的准确性，一条行之有效的办法就是把学生平时的错误集中起来，归纳分类，认真研究错在哪里、为什么会错，以便从中吸取教训。学生在运用英语时所犯的错误大致有这样几种情况： 1、句子成分残缺
