大学英语四级口语改错(2)

大学英语四级口语改错(2)我和我的室友一起去商店.Incorrect english:I and my roommate went to the store.Correct english:My roommate and i went to the store.解释:这里的问题是:当i我与别的人称代词或名词同时作主语时,它们的顺序该如何安排?规则是:如果主语包括i与别的人,i总是放在最后;而汉语中则习惯性把我放在第一,这与英语完全不问。

Examples:Frad,john,mr.stfwart,and i live on the same street.The group of athletes and i went to the football field together.Bill and i do not have a very good relationship.注意:有多个主语时,以英语为母语的人通常用me作一个主语,并把它放在其他主语前面.语法上是错误的,但你可能会听到:me and wes are going to watch the baseball game on tv tonight.虽然他很矮,但是他能跑得很快.Incorrect english:Although he is very short, but he can run very fast.Correct english:Although he is very short, he can run fastHe is very short, but he can run fast.解释:这里的问题是:我们能够用 although 或 but ,但不能同时用,因为这是错误的,其中一个就已经表达了“虽然...但是...”的意思。

规则是:although 比 but 更正规些。

Examples:Although I’m tired, I still want to go out and see a movie.I’m tired, but i still want to go out and see a movie.Although Nancy does not like her boss, she likes going to work anyway.Nancy does not like her boss, but she likes going to work anyway.Although I asked him not to marry her, he did it anyway. I’m really mad at him.I asked him not to marry her, but he did it anyway. I’m really mad at him.。

英语四级的口语常见错误

英语四级的口语常见错误

英语四级的口语常见错误Introduction:英语四级考试是大多数中国大学生所面临的一项重要考试,其中口语考试是被广大考生所关注的重点之一。

为了帮助考生更好地准备口语考试,本文将分析并总结英语四级口语中常见的错误,并提供改错建议。

1. Pronunciation Errors:Pronunciation is a crucial aspect of oral communication. However, many Chinese students struggle with certain sounds and intonation patterns in English. One common mistake is the mispronunciation of certain vowels and consonants. For example, the "th" sound is often substituted with "s" or "z", which can lead to misunderstandings. A solution to overcome this error is to practice regularly with a native English speaker or using online resources that provide audio samples for pronunciation practice.2. Grammar Errors:Grammar mistakes can significantly affect the clarity and accuracy of oral expression. One common error is the misuse of verb tenses. Students often confuse past and present tenses, leading to unclear communication. To avoid this, students should review and practice verb tenses regularly through exercises and conversations with native speakers. Additionally, common grammatical errors such as subject-verb agreement or preposition usage should also be addressed through focused practice.3. Vocabulary Errors:Limited vocabulary is another issue that hinders effective oral communication. Chinese students often rely on basic or repetitive words instead of employing a wide range of vocabulary to convey their thoughts. To expand vocabulary, students should actively read English books, newspapers, and articles. They should also make use of vocabulary-building tools, such as flashcards or vocabulary apps, to acquire and review new words regularly.4. Fluency Errors:Fluency and coherence are crucial aspects of oral communication. Many students struggle with pauses, hesitations, and disorganized speech, which can affect their overall fluency. To improve fluency, students should engage in regular conversation practice with English speakers or language exchange partners. They can also listen to English podcasts or watch English movies to familiarize themselves with natural speech patterns and improve their overall flow.5. Pronoun Errors:Pronoun errors are common among Chinese English learners. Students often misuse pronouns such as "he," "she," "it", or "they". This can lead to confusion and misunderstandings. To overcome this error, students should pay attention to noun-pronoun agreement and practice using pronouns correctly in various sentences and contexts.Conclusion:In conclusion, the English four-level oral exam poses challenges for many Chinese students. However, by addressing and rectifying commonerrors in pronunciation, grammar, vocabulary, fluency, and pronoun usage, students can enhance their oral communication skills and perform better in the exam. Regular practice, exposure to native English speakers or resources, and a conscious effort to improve in these areas will contribute to overall success in the English oral exam.。

大学英语四级单句改错例题解析(最终版)

大学英语四级单句改错例题解析(最终版)

大学英语四级单句改错例题解析(最终版)第一篇:大学英语四级单句改错例题解析(最终版)单句改错例题解析【例1】Sorry,I haven't got any small changes on me.【解析】这里的“changes”应改为“change”,因为“change”作“零钱”解时为不可数名词。

【例2】Is the education free in all the countries?【解析】这里“education”前面的“the”要去掉,因为抽象名词表示泛指意义时不用定冠词。

【例3】Peter is stronger than him.【解析】在省略句或不完整的从句中,代词的格应跟没有省略、完整时的格一致。

这一句完整的结构应该是“Peter is stronger than he is,因此不能用“him”。

【例4】The man bought 20 dozens socks.【解析】象dozen,hundred,thousand等数量词被大于1的基数词修饰时,仍用单数形式。

所以这里的“dozens”应该改为“dozen”。

【例5】M illion of years ago,there lived a lot of huge animals on the earth.【解析】“hundreds of”,“thousands of,“millions of等结构中,不可遗漏-s。

【例6】China is still a developed country.【解析】过去分词作定语表示完成或被动之意,而现在分词作定语则表示进行或主动之意。

而中国现在仍然是一个发展中国家,因此应把“developed”改为“developing”。

【例7】What a ashamed thing to do!【解析】“ashamed”是“感觉羞耻的”,通常很少用在形容词前面作定语,一般只作表语,而“shameful”是“可耻的”,通常用在形容词前面作定语。

英语四级的口语部分常见错误英语四级口语部分常见错误Introduction:The oral test in the English Proficiency Test for College Students (CET-4) is one of the most challenging parts for students. It requires not only a good command of English grammar and vocabulary but also effective communication skills. In this article, we will explore some common mistakes that students make in the oral test of the CET-4 and provide suggestions on how to overcome these errors.1. MispronunciationOne of the most prevalent mistakes in the CET-4 oral test is mispronunciation. Due to the influence of their native language, students often struggle with English pronunciation. This can lead to difficulty in understanding and communicating with native English speakers.To overcome this issue, students should focus on improving their pronunciation by paying attention to phonetic symbols and practicing speaking with native speakers or through online language exchange platforms. Additionally, listening to English songs, watching English movies, and practicing tongue twisters can also help improve pronunciation skills.2. Grammar ErrorsGrammar mistakes are a common occurrence in the CET-4 oral test. Students sometimes confuse tenses, use incorrect verb forms, or misuseprepositions. These errors can affect the overall coherence and accuracy of their spoken English.To address this issue, students should review and practice grammar rules regularly. Engaging in conversations with English speakers, attending language workshops, and utilizing online grammar resources are effective ways to improve grammar skills. It is also beneficial to keep a record of the common grammar mistakes made and revise them regularly.3. Lack of VocabularyLimited vocabulary is another major obstacle students face in the CET-4 oral test. It can lead to repetitive and monotonous speech, making it difficult to express ideas clearly and effectively.To expand vocabulary, students should read extensively in English, including newspapers, magazines, and books. They should also create a personal vocabulary list and review it regularly. Engaging in discussions on various topics and learning new words in context can further enhance vocabulary skills.4. Lack of FluencyDifficulty in maintaining fluency during the CET-4 oral test is a challenge faced by many students. They often pause for lengthy periods, struggle to find appropriate words, and experience a lack of natural flow in conversation.To improve fluency, students need to engage in regular speaking practice. This can be achieved by participating in group discussions, joining English clubs, or finding conversation partners through language exchange platforms.Regular practice will help students think in English and respond quickly, resulting in improved fluency.Conclusion:Improving oral skills is crucial for success in the CET-4 oral test. By addressing common errors such as mispronunciation, grammar mistakes, limited vocabulary, and lack of fluency, students can enhance their communication abilities. Continuous practice, exposure to English in various forms, and utilizing available resources will significantly contribute to improving oral proficiency. With dedication and consistent effort, students can overcome these common errors and perform well in the oral test of the CET-4.。

大学英语四级口语改错(11)

我曾……/ 不曾……A: “Have you ever been to South America?”Incorrect English:B: “Yes, I have ever been there.”Correct English:B: “Yes, I have been there.”A: “Have you ever sung a Beatles song in front of a crowd of people?”Incorrect English:B: “Yes, I have ever sung a Beatles song in front of a crowd of people.”Correct English:B: “yes, I have sung a Beatles song in front of a of people.”解释: 上述A提出的问题是正确的,当我们询问某⼈是否曾经有过别的经历时,我们⽤“ever”,但是“Incorrect English”中B的回答显然是错误的。

当回答我们确实有过某种经历时,不⽤“ever”;⽽回答没有某种经历时,我们或者⽤“never”,或者⽤带有“ever”的否定句。

请看:Explanation:The above questions spoken by A are correct .when we are asking someone if they have had a particular experience,we use the word “ever”. But the responses given by B under “incorrect English” are indeed incorrect .When we are stating that we have indeed had the experience of doing something ,we do not use the word “ever”. If we are stating that we have not had a particular experience ,we either use the word “never”or a negative sentence with the word “ever”.Let’s look at some examples:A:“Have you ever been to the Museum of Modern Art in San Francisco?”B:“Yes ,I have been there . In fact ,I just went last Thursday.”-or-B:“No,I have never been there .The entrance fee is too expensive.”-or-B:“No,I haven` t ever been there. I` m looking forward to going sometime,though.”A:“Have you ever seen the film “pretty Woman”?”B:“Yes,I’ve seen it . it made me cry.”-or-B:“No,I’ve never seen it .I don’t really think Richard Gere is a very good actor.”-or-B:“No,I haven` t ever seen it .perhaps someday I will rent the videotape.”A:“Has your mother ever come to see you here in Paris?”B:“Yes,she came time twice last winter.”-or-B:“Yes,she has come about six or seven times.”-or-B:“No,she has never come to see me.”-or-B:“No,she hasn’t ever come to see me . She Promised she will come next spring. She really wants to see Eiffel Tower.。

英语四级口语常见错误解析Introduction:In this article, we will discuss some common errors that students make in English oral communication. By understanding and rectifying these mistakes, learners can improve their spoken English skills and enhance their overall proficiency.1. Incorrect Pronunciation:One of the most common errors in English oral communication is incorrect pronunciation. Many students struggle with pronouncing certain sounds and stress patterns. For example, mispronouncing words with "th" sounds as "s" or "z" is a common mistake. To rectify this, learners can practice pronunciation through listening to native speakers, using pronunciation apps, and working with a language tutor or teacher.2. Lack of Vocabulary:Another mistake students often make is the limited use of vocabulary. They tend to rely on basic and repetitive words, which results in a lack of depth and variety in their speech. To overcome this, students should actively expand their vocabulary by reading extensively, learning idiomatic expressions, and using new words in daily conversations. Regularly practicing with vocabulary flashcards and engaging in language games can also be beneficial.3. Improper Word Choice:Choosing the wrong words or phrases is a common error that affects the accuracy and clarity of oral communication.

Lack of Fluency:A lack of fluency is another common error in English oral communication. Students often struggle with pauses, hesitations, and repetition. Developing fluency requires regular speaking practice, engaging in discussions, and actively participating in conversations. Students can also benefit from shadowing exercises, where they imitate and repeat natural speech patterns of native speakers.6.

大学英语四级考试—— 改错

大学英语四级考试—— 改错

四级考试“改错的目的是测试学生综合运用语言的能力”。

改错题的主要错误类型有主谓不一致、时态和语态错误、连接词误用、形容词与副词错误、反义词误用、非谓语动词错误、关系代词错误、介词错误、缺漏和赘述、句子结构等等。

考生在做改错题时,首先应通读短文,对文章有个大致的了解。

然后,仔细读出现10个错误的所在行,一般来说,每个错误基本都可以归入上述的某一个错误类型,看有没有出现语法错误和词汇错误。

如果通过细读确认没有语法错误和词汇错误,那就把细读扩大到该行上下各二、三行,有时甚至要联系该行所在的自然段,这时的重点必须转移到对文章的理解上来,从上下文的关系找出连接关系和逻辑关系的前后矛盾的错误。

最后应再通读一篇改正后的文章,看整篇文章总体上是否连贯一致。

1、反义词误用这是短文改错中出现频率较高也是比较有特色的一种错误类型,这类错误必须在透彻理解上下文语义的基础上才能发现并改正。

比较常见的错误有:a、派生反义词如00年1月的72题将directly改为indirectly。

b其他反义词如00年1月的77题将little改为much。

2、连接词误用连接词的错误虽然是属于传统的语法题范畴,但其用法主要根据上下文语义上的逻辑关系,也就是上下文的理解。

连接词有很多种,有并列连词,如and, but, or等,主从连词,如because, if, after等,以及其他连接介词和副词,如however, despite等。

曾经考查过的题目有00年6月的73题,将as改为than,这考查的是比较连词的搭配,根据上一行中之more即可确定改as为than。

3、指代错误这一般考查的是代词的指代,在文章当中如果说出现了代词,那么代词所指代的对象在前文中一定是出现过的,否则就会出现指代不清,所以出现代词时候,我们要注意它所指代的对象的单复数是否与代词一致。

如03年9月的S9题将it改为they,因为它指代的是前面的复数名词new houses。

A more effective way tocomplete the assignment is to divide the reading intosmaller goals by thinking each chapter as a separategoal. Thus you experience success as you complete.each chapter.

英语四级改错常见形式

英语四级改错常见形式

英语四级改错常见形式英语四级改错常见形式一、英语四级短文改错常见形式1、错词(words mistaken)在标有题号的一行中有一词在词法、搭配或词义等方面有错误,要求考生找出错误并换上正确的词(change a word),这类错误在所有错误中占绝大多数。

2、缺词(words missing)在标有题号的一行的任何位置——包括行首词前和行末词后——缺了一词,要求考生按语法、搭配或上下文语义的需要找出缺词的位置并补上所缺的词(insert a word)。

3、多词(words redundant)在标有题号的一行中有一词按语法、搭配或上下文语义要求纯属多余,要求考生认定该多余的词并划去(cross out a word)。

短文共有10处错误,但究竟哪一行多一词,哪一行缺一词或错一词,则没有任何规律和标记。

历年考题的统计资料表明,绝大多数改错设计为错词一类。

其主要原因除了命题因素外,更由于这类错误形式难度较大,并更能考查考生的实际语言驾驭能力。

改错规则:不论是错词,缺词或多词,考生在改错时只能动一个词。

二、英语四级短文改错的解题方法1、三步法解题(1)通读全文,了解全文大意和主题;(2)找错并改正;(3)通读全文,核对检验。

2、解题步骤(1)在理解句子的基础上,先从动词、句法的角度判断有无这方面的错误以及错误的位置;(2)确定无句法错误后,再考虑用法、搭配和近形近义方面的错误;(3)在排除了上述两种可能后,应着重从语篇角度寻找有无上下文语义方面的错误(注意连接性词语和那些可能有反义词的词);(4)注意标有题号的各行与上行或下行相临处的错误;(5)若经过以上步骤还无法判断错误所在,则应暂时放弃该行,而继续往下做,待做完全文,对全文有更深入、更完整的理解的基础上进行检验时再作判断。

宜从介词及一些简单而易被忽视的语法角度的“细微处”多加考虑。

大学英语四级口语改错(4)因为他很聪明,所以他的成绩总是很高。

Incorrect English:“Because he is smart ,so his grades are always very high。

”Correct English:“Because he is smart ,his grades are always very high。

”OR“He is smart ,so his grades are always very high。

”解释:这个问题与“问题3”非常类似。

在表达“因果关系”的句子里,用“because”的句子与用“so”的句子并没有明显的区别。

Explanation:This problem is very similar to the problem in number 3。

In a sentence of this kind,we can use “because”or “so”。

“ many ” 用来修饰可数名词,如“ pieces of chalk , erasers , desks , bowls of salad , dollars , books , people , apples ”等等。

而“ much ” 是用来修饰不可数名词的,如“ chalk , mud , salad , money , knowledge , time , food ”等等。

请看下面的例子:Students often confuse the words “ many ” and “ much ”. “ Many ” is used to talk about things that can be counted , such as pieces of chalk , erasers , desks , bowls of salad , dollars , books , people , apples , and things . “ Much ”, on the other hand , is used to describe things that cannot be counted , such as Chalk , mud , salad , money , knowledge , time , and food . Let ` s look at some examples :“ There are many people is the gymnasium .”“ There is much space in the gymnasium .”“ The campus has much buildings .”“ The campus has much plant life .”有时, 我们也常用更口语化的短语来表达“ many ” and “ much ”,比如“ a lot of ”, 或“ lots of ”.例:Often , however , we change both “ many ” and “ much ” to a more colloquial phrase , such as “ a lot of ”, or “ lots of ”. For example :“ I can learn a lot of knowledge from my teachers .”(“ A lot of ” here replaces “ much”. “ A lot of ” 在句子里相当于“ much ”.)“ I saw lots of horses in Inner Mongolia .”。

"to have”和“to be ”(“存有”或“有”)
英语表达“存有” (既汉语“有没有” 的“有”)的概念有两
种方法,既“to have”和“to be ”,
学生们经常混淆这两个词,不能准确使用。

Because there are two basic ways of expressing existence
in English, or expressing the
Chinese word “有”,students often mix them up and incorrectly use them together .
The two ways of expressing “you” are the verbs “to have” and “to be ”.
Incorrect English:
“In Harbin every year there has an Ice-Lantern
Festival. ”
Correct English:
“In Harbin every year there is an Ice-Lantern Festival.”
-or- “Every year Harbin has an Ice-Lantern Festival.”
Incorrect English:
“In Italy there has a beautiful coastline.”
Correct English:
“In Italy there is a beautiful coastline.”
-or- “Italy has a beautiful coastline.”
解释:
在上面错误的范例中,所话者错误地使用了“to have”和“to be ”句型。

在改正后的句子中,
第一句使用了“to be”句型,第二句使用了“to have”句型。

请看更多的例句:
Explanation:
In the incorrect English sentences above,the speaker is mistakenly using parts of both the
“to have”and the“to be”pattern。

In the corrected sentences,the first sentences use the“to be”pattern and the second sentences use the“to have”pattern. Let’s look at more examples:
“Lots of people are in the yard enjoying the sun.”
“The yard has a lot of people in it enjoying the sun.”
“There is a CD on the desk.”
“The desk has a CD on it .”
“There is a stain on my pants.”
“My pants have a stain on them.”
“There is a beautiful advertisement for shampoo on that huge building.”
“That huge building has a beautiful advertisement for shampoo on it.”
“My kitchen has a strange smell right now. I guess there are some rotting vegetables in it.”
“There is a strange smell in my kitchen right now . I guess it has some rotting vegetables in it。
