2013年12月英语六级改错模拟试题(5)
词性的使用错误
词性错误是最容易犯的错误之一,通常而言,对单词记忆不够全面以及受到汉语的影响等都会造成此类错误的产生。

词性的使用错误是指文章中单词的词性用错,主要表现在名词形容词副词以及动词的使用错误上,如把名词错当成动词使用,或者把形容词错当成名词或者该用副词的地方错用了形容词等情况,归纳起来主要涉及三种类型:
名词与动词的错误使用,如:approval — approve ,sale — sell ; 名词与形容词的误用,如:medicine — medical/medicinal ,emotion — emotional ; 形容词与副词的误用,如:high — highly ,mere — merely 等。

这类错误还常出现在be 以外的系动词后,如:feel badly — feel bad ,grow uneasily — grow uneasy .
例1
Ideally, of course, the expression of editorial
opinion should be limited on the editorial page
and the news articles should be objective
— telling the fact as complete as possible. 1.__________
该句中complete为形容词,而在该句中它前面所接词为动词tell,必须改为副词形式,故应该将complete改为completely.
例2
It is a social prejudice that the work of street
cleaners is thought to be dirty and shame by 1.__________
most people.
根据上下可知该句中的系动词be后面必须接形容词,且与前面的dirty并列关系,所以应该将名词shame改为shameful.
例3
It is true that their work may be dirty, but not
necessary shameful. What would our streets 1.__________
be like if nobody cleared away the rubbish?
该句中shameful为形容词,前面必须使用副词修饰,故应该将necessary改为necessarily.
例4
Used wise, science may increase our energy and 1.__________
food supply, improve our health, expand our joy
and extend our lives.
该句的完整结构是“if it is used wisely, science may… ”,“wisely”修饰过去分词“used”,表示“使用得当”的意思。

所以应该将形容词wise改为副词形式的wisely.

句子结构的错误
在英语中按句型来说可以分为陈述句、疑问句、祈使句和感叹句四种,从结构上来说又可以分为简单句、并列句和复合句三种。

句子的结构错误是构成句子完整结构的某一成分用错或者缺少,或者使用了多于成分而造成句意不清的错误类型。

由于英语语法和汉语语法特点在结构上表现得十分明显,主、谓、宾结构在数、格、人称上的一致、连接手段的正确使用以及词序安排等,都与汉语有着相当大的差异,因此在改错中也是一大难点。

句子结构错误类型包括:句子类型使用错误、句子成分短缺、平行结构错误以及词组搭配使用错误。

例1
Computer analyzed marketing reports can help
deciding which products to emphasize now, which
to develop for the future, and which to be dropped. 1.__________
本句中三个平行成分which products to emphasize now, which to develop for the future, and which to be dropped 结构模式应该一致,均采用不定式主动语态,因而to be dropped 应改为to drop .
例2
When we consider the comfortable circumstances
of a working family today, the life of the workingman
in 1882 seems miserable indeed. But earlier it had
been ever hard. 1.__________
根据上文中“ earlier ”可知,原句显然是将1882 年以前的生活与1882 年时的生活作比较,所以此处hard 应该改为harder .
例3
At the beginning of the nineteenth century working
hours were from sunrise to sunset, pay was awful,
and working conditions being poor and dangerous. 1.__________
在该句中,working hours were from sunrise to sunset, pay was awful, and working conditions being poor and dangerous 三个小分句为并列结构关系,因此必须保持成分和结构上的一致性,故应该将being 改为were .
例4
However, a second person thought that this was
more a question of civilized behavior as good 1.__________
manners.
“ more…than… ”是固定搭配用法,在此句中表示“与其…不如…”的意思,而不是“比…多”的意思;没有“ more…as… ”的搭配用法,故应该将as 改为than .
练习题
1 On the contrary, the intimate atmosphere of the
small college allows the student four years of structural
living in which to expect and preparing for the real world. 1.__________
2 In making his choice among educational institutions
the student must, therefore, consider a great many factors.
Going to school is part of the socialization process,
and so going to the movies. 2.__________
3 The next morning the sun rose like a red ball on the
eastern horizon. But somehow after breakfast it hid
itself behind patches of clouds but it seemed a rain was 3.__________ apparent.
4 But luckily, no sooner had we entered the car when it 4.__________
suddenly began to rain.
5 That is worthy of note about these two groups is that 5.__________
among the 40 people there are only two women.
6 Women members are so less than members that we 6.__________
again think of the outdated prejudice that women are
inferior in intelligence.
7 The best way to avoid using dictionaries when you
are reading English books is to try to remember many 7.__________
words as you can.
8 It is just on that day when I bumped into Miss Helen 8.__________
on my way to work.

时态语态和语气的使用错误
1. 时态错误。

主要是指在一个句子中,出现不同的时态,从而造成时态不一致,如:He can't remember what he once knows.
2. 语态错误。

在cet6 综合改错题中最常见的语态错误是被动语态被误用为主动语态。

不及物动词不能带宾语,因而也就没有被动语态。

如:She was very angry at not telling the truth when she listened to the account.
3. 虚拟语态错误。

此类使用错误在综合改错题中主要表现为主语和从句的语气不协调,如:We strongly suggest that Henry is told about his physical condition as soon as possible. 句中动词suggest 之后的从句应用虚拟语气,故“ is ”应该“ be ”或“should be ”。

类似的动词还有demand ,insist ,order 等等。

例1These newly wedded couples usually came here and meet
1.__________
together to hold parties.
由于前面的时态已经限制为过去时,而且came 和meet 是并列结构,两者时态应该保持一致,因此应该将meet 改为met ,或者将came 改为come ,具体情况依据上下文的语境时态而定。

例2Computer analyzed marketing reports can help deciding which products to emphasize now, which to develop for the future, and which to be dropped. 1.__________
本句中三个平行成分which products to emphasize now ,which to develop for the future 和which to be dropped 结构模式应该一致,均采用不定式主动语态,因而to be dropped 应改为to drop .
例3In the first place, the scientist at once put some
kind of material into the liquid which has already 1.__________ securely obtained.
根据句子意思可知,此处的liquid 不可能为动作的发生者,显然此处应该是被动语态,故应该将has 改为is 或者在has 后加been 均可,意思是指“已经安全获得的液体”。

例4Did they gone there yesterday, they would have discovered 1.__________ the truth.
根据句子意思可知,这句话是说如果他们昨天去了就会发现事实真相,然而他们并未去,此处是虚拟语气,因此应该使用虚拟语气的格式,将Did 改为Had .
练习题
1 These small households were portraits of
independence: the entire family, mother, father,
children, even grandparents live in a small house
and working together to support each other. 1.__________
2 In the meantime the unscientific world awoke
to the fact that scientists are on the track of a great 2.__________
discovery.
3 For in 1895, the year of the Curie marriage,
Roentgen discovered the famous rays that are 3.__________
named after him—— he forerunners of modern
X-rays.
4 Mary hoped at one time to study at the University
of Cracow, then under Austrian rule. But when she
demanded to allowed to attend science lectures, the 4.__________
secretary said that science was not a thing in which
women can meddle.
5 Many part-time stu dents expected to offered some 5.__________
jobs on campus during the coming summer vacation.
6 Many people who live in London think that life in
a large city offered special advantages. 6.__________
7 The changes that taken place in air travel during 7.__________
the last sixty years would have seemed impossible
to even the most Brilliant scientists at the turn of
the 19th century.
8 I regret having left the work unfinished, I should
have plan every thing ahead carefully. 8.__________

错误类型逻辑表达错误 2.介词使用错误3.代词使用错误4.非谓语动词使用错误5.主谓语前后不一致错误6.名词的使用错误7.冠词的使用错误8.词性使用错误9.句子结构的错误10.时态语态和语气的使用错误11.易混淆词的使用错误。

易混淆词的使用错误
英语词汇中有很多词在拼写上、语义上很相似,如assure/ensure ,rise/arise/raise ,effect/affect ,但是它们的用法却迥然不同。

这些易混淆的词构成六级改错的一个重要错误类型,也是比较难的一种类型,这个需要考生在平时的学习过程中注意知识的积累,并多做些总结和归纳,从中找出一些规律。

例1His persistence was awarded when the car finally started.
1.__________
句中“ award ”是“颁发,授予(奖赏)”之义,而文中要表达的意思是“汽车终于启动了,那就是对他坚持不懈精神的回报”,应把award 改成reward .
例2Deciding how much discomfort and risk we are prepared to put up with in the name of better health is a highly personal matter, not a decision we should remain to doctors 1.__________ alone.
“ remain ”意为“保持,仍然”,是一个表示状态的动词,其用法和系动词“ be ”相似,后面所接成分一般是名词或形容词,作表语,而“ leave sth. to sb. ”意思是“把某物留给某人”。

本句很明显是“ leave…to… ”的句型,所以应该把remain 改为leave .
例3Of course the press means more than newspaper. A vast
amount of magazines are published, aimed at readers 1.__________interested in all sorts of subjects.
因为amount 表示数量时只与不可数名词连用,而本句中后面所接名词为“ magazines ”,是复数名词,应该使用表示复数形式的number ,故应该把amount 改为number .
例4Today, flint has small importance as an industrial product.
1.__________“small”用于表示人或物的体积尺寸,不能修饰抽象名词importance ,因此应把small 改为可以修饰不可数抽象名词的little .
练习题
1 Industry officials predicted that mobile communications
service will soon be comparative in many respects to the 1.__________ service provided by telephone that do not move.
2 In today's society, “Smoking effects your health” has 2.__________
become a warning which is known to almost every house hold.
3 For his outstanding achievements in graduate teaching
he is held in big esteem by his students and colleagues. 3.__________
4 Supersonic craft may disturb the upper atmosphere to
such an extent that dangerous radiation from the sun might
reach the earth, with unimaginative effects on life there. 4.__________
5 In the late nineteen century, farm work and life were not 5.__________
much changed from what they had been in the old days.
6 Deciding how much discomfort and risk we are prepared
to put up with in the name o better health is a high personal 6.__________ matter, not a decision we should remain to doctors alone. 7.__________
7 Whenever the subject of smoking and health is risen, 8.__________
the governments of most countries hears no evil, see no evil
and smell no evil.
8 If I were to live my life over again, I would pay more
attention to the cultivation of the memory. I would strengthen
that faculty by every possible mean, and on every possible 9.__________ occasion.
9 The government of most countries spending huge sum of
money for international defense. 10.__________

第 2 页:参考答案
Thomas Malthus published his “Essay on the
Principle of Population”almost 200 years ago. Ever since then,
forecasters have being warning that worldwide famine was (S1)
just around the next corner. The fast-growing population’s
demand for food, they warned, would soon exceed their (S2)
supply, leading to widespread food shortages and starvation.
But in reality, the world’s total grain harvest has risen
steadily over the years. Except for relative isolated trouble (S3)
spots like present-day Somalia, and occasional years of
good harvests, the world’s food crisis has remained just (S4)
around the corner. Most experts believe this can continue
even as if the population doubles by the mid-21st century, (S5)
although feeding 10 billion people will not be easy for
politics, economic and environmental reasons. Optimists (S6)
point to concrete examples of continued improvements
in yield. In Africa, by instance, improved seed, more (S7)
fertilizer and advanced growing practices have more than
double corn and wheat yields in an experiment. Elsewhere, (S8)
rice experts in the Philippines are producing a plant with few (S9)
stems and more seeds. There is no guarantee that plant
breeders can continue to develop new, higher-yielding
crop, but most researchers see their success to date as reason (S10)
