英语专业八级改错练习题及答案解析英语专业八级改错练习题及答案解析Now, it is clear that the decline of a language must ultimately have political and economical causes: it is not due simply to the badinfluence of this or that individual writers. But an effect can becomea cause, reinforce the original cause and producing the same effectin an intensified form, and so on indefinitely. A man may take drinkbecause he feels himself to be a failure, and then fail all the mostcompletely because he drinks. It is rather the same thing that ishappening to the English language. It becomes ugly and inaccuratebecause our thoughts are foolish, but the sloven of our languagemakes it easier for us to have foolish thoughts. The point is that theprocess is irreversible. Modern English, especially written English,is full of bad habits which spread by imitation and which can beavoided if one is willing to take the necessary trouble. If one getsrid of these habits one can think more clearly, and think clearly is anecessary first step towards political regeneration: so that the fightagainst bad English is not frivolous and is not the exclusive concerningof professional writers. I will come back to this present, and I hopethat by that time the meaning of what I have said here will have becomeclearer.答案及解析:1.economical-economiceconomical的意思是“节约的,经济的,省钱的”,而此处应选择economic表示“经济的,有关经济的”。

Band 5 Translation:Section A:Chinese to EnglishText 1“Thank you,” said the woman, and she gave the fairy three silver coins. Then she went home and planted the seed. Soon there grew up a large handsome red flower, something like a tulip in appearance.“What a lovely flower,” said the woman, and she kissed its beautiful petals. While she did so, the flower opened with a snap, and now people could see that it was a real tulip. Within the flower sat a very delicate and graceful little maiden. She was scarcely half as long as a thumb, and they gave her the name of “Thumbelina”.Text 2To know the Joy of being given a new flat, one has only to see the wretchedness of those with inadequate housing; and to know the importance of allotting housing, one need only to see how those in charge calculate as finely as a general confronting a dangerous enemy and how the applicants marshall all their prestige, words, and brains ...On January 14, after much wrangling and rushing about, many clashes, excuses, false alarms, a showdown, waiting, despairs and hope rekindled, he received six keys, three for each flat. The grooved keys of aluminium alloy looked like any other keys, still smelling of dust and dirt with their protective coating of oil. He was pleased to get them, but not as happy as he had expected to be.Text 3She held me in her arms, humming and patting me as I became more aggrieved than ever. “Listen,” she said. “Listen now. Can you hear it?” I stoppedcrying to listen intently and heard a beautiful sound, soft and fluid. Was it a pigeon whistle, the autumn wind, the leaves brushing against the eaves as they fell or was it just Granny humming? I still have no idea. “Go to sleep. I'll hit the grey monkey if it comes.” That was her lullaby. On the ceiling was a quivering spot of light, the reflection of the sun in the water basin. It too was soft and fluid and merged into a peaceful dream as I fell asleep in her arms.Text 4Snow mantled the cottage tiles where the eaves were in disrepair and hung down in finger-like icicles from roofs under which people huddled as though stored away in an icebox, to awaken with cold at midnight and hear the old north wind howling over their heads.Dawn broke, and the sun shed its golden radiance on the bitterly cold village. A couple of dogs were rolling on the threshing ground. A couple of women were breaking ice at the river bank to draw water; three hornwort boats pressed tightly together as if frozen into a block ...Text 5While historical sites of other countries were built at a certain time, enjoyed their prosperity, and then became preserved as relics for people to visit, China's Great Wall is different. It was rebuilt and extended dynasty after dynasty. The Great Wall grew in length as time went on. China has too long a history, of too much war and suffering, for any ancient monument to remain forever unless it was buried underground in tombs, or hidden in places unfrequented by people. The Epang Palace was burnt down, Prince Teng's Pavilion collapsed, and Yellow Crane Tower was rebuilt only recently. Dujiang Dam at Chengdu in Sichuan has remained due to itsirrigation function.Text 6A home is a place for people to live in; therefore everything should be measured against the standard whether people feel at home. Excessive attention to one's dwelling turns one into a slave in bondage to material structure, and a round-the-clock housekeeper. It's hardly worth the while. The layout and ambience of an enviable home should be designed to guarantee the health of every family member and promote domestic harmony. An ideal home should be pervaded by human feeling, and if too clean and too luxurious, the place will have its human touch abridged. Some people like to decorate their home in such a way as if it was open for show to foreign visitors only. The result is: even the owner of the mansion doesn't feel at home.Text 7We will further deepen the reform.In the economic restructuring, we shall speed up the development of a market system, let the market play a bigger role, improve the macro adjustment and regulation by the State and accelerate development of the national economy. Moreover, we shall also endeavor to push forward structural reform in the fields of science and technology, education and culture. We should enthusiastically press ahead with our political reform by promoting socialist democracy and the rule of law. Parallel to our economic reform and development, we should make even greater effort in the reform of our civil administrative system and institutions so as to transform the government functions, cut down staff size and raise efficiency. In all reforms, we maintain that it is essential to be bold in exploring new ways and experimenting and to sum up experience continuously.Text 8Peking opera is a synthesis of stylized action, singing, dialogue and mime, acrobatic fighting and dancing to represent a story or depict different characters and their feelings of gladness, anger, sorrow, happiness, surprise, fear and sadness. In Peking opera there are four main types of roles; sheng (male), dan (female), Jing ( painted face, male), and chou (clown, male or female). The characters may be loyal or treacherous, beautiful or ugly, good or bad, their images being vividly manifested.The types of facial make-ups in Peking opera are rich and various, depicting different characters and remarkable images, and therefore they are highly appreciated. For the painted role, the different colors of the faces represent different characters and personality. Red stands for uprightness and loyalty, black means valor and wisdom, blue and green indicate the vigorous and enterprising characters of rebellious heroes, yellow and white represent cunning and gold and silver represent mystic or super-natural power.Text 9Since the 1990s when China decided to open up in all directions, Shanghai, as an international metropolis, assumed the leading role in implementing the country's reform and open policies on account of her superior geographical position, firm economic foundation and rich talent resources. However, with cramped developing space in the urban area, she was consciously aware of the fact that the cost of remoulding the old city area was much higher than that of building a new city area. Therefore, developing Pudong became a must. In April 1990, Chinese government announced its plan to develop Pudong and open up the area to the outside world. Pudong, symbolizing Shanghai's future and promise, was meant to bedeveloped into a modernized new area that was outward-looking, multi-functional, instead of just an industrial area. It would make full use of the experience gained by several southern economic special zones and in return provide references for the planning and development of other new areas in China.Text 10Near China's northern borders lived a man well versed in the practices of Taoism. His horse, for no reason at all, got into the territory of the northern tribes. Everyone commiserated with him. “Perhaps this will soon turn out to be a blessing,” said the father. After a few months, his animal came back, leading a fine horse from the north. Everyone congratulated him. “Perhaps this will soon turn out to be a cause of misfortune,” said the father. Since he was well-off and kept good horses? the son became fond of riding and eventually broke his thigh bone falling from a horse. Everyone commiserated with him. “Perhaps this will soon turn out to be a blessing,” said the father. One year later, the northern tribes started a big invasion of the border regions. All able-bodied young men took up arms and fought against the invaders, and as a result, around the border nine out of ten men died. This man's son did not join in the fighting because he was crippled and so both the boy and his father survived.Band 5 Translation:Section B:English to ChineseText l在夕阳最后一缕余辉的照射下,它们酷似那高耸的雷雨云,奔腾翻滚着冲向夜空。

英语专八改错部分真题及答案

英语专八改错部分真题及答案

英语专八改错部分真题及答案英语专八改错部分真题及答案So far as we can tell, all human languages are equally complete and perfect as instruments of communication: that is, every language appears to be as well equipped as any other to say the things its speakers want to say. It may or may not be appropriate to talk about primitive peoples or cultures, but that is another matter. Certainly, not all groups of people are equally competent in nuclear physics or psychology or the cultivation of rice or the engraving of Benares brass. But this is not the fault of their language. The Eskimos can speak about snow with a great deal more precision and subtlety than we can in English, but this is not because the Eskimo language (one of those sometimes miscalled ’primitive’) is inherently more precise and subtle than English. This example does not bring to light a defect in English, a show of unexpected ’primitiveness’. The position is simply and obviously that the Eskimos and the English live in different environments. The English language would be just as rich in terms for different kinds of snow, presumably, if the environments in which English was habitually used made such distinction important. Similarly, we have no reason to doubt that the Eskimo language could be as precise and subtle on the subject of motor manufacture or cricket if these topics formed part of the Eskimos’ life. For obvious historical reasons, Englishmen in the nineteenth century could not talk about motorcars with the minute discrimination which is possible today: cars were not a part of their culture. But they had a host of terms for horse-drawn vehicles which send us, puzzled, to a historical dictionary when we are reading Scott or Dickens. How many ofus could distinguish between a chaise, a landau, a victoria, a brougham, a coupe, a gig, a diligence, a whisky, a calash, a tilbury,a carriole, a phaeton, and a clarence ?1 be后插入 as;2 their改为its;3 There改为It;4 Whereas改为But;5 further 改为much6 come改为bring;7 similar改为different;8 will改为would;9 as important去掉as;10 the part去掉the。

1. "Their football team plays good."改正:Their football team plays well.解析:在英语中,用来描述动词的方式有两种,一种是用副词,一种是用形容词。

SECTION B ENGLISH TO CHINESETranslate the underlined part of the text into Chinese.David Dary’s The Santa Fe Trail is one tough trip into the history of the Old West, a straightforward narration extending from the early exploration of the southwest to today, based on accounts of what many accept as the ―truth‖ about an important part of United States history.The author is an experienced enough guide when it comes to westering. His books are testimonials to a penchant for covering the biggest subjects in the most comprehensive way. But experience as an Old West historian, especially in New West times, isn’t everything.The Santa Fe Trail is an epic subject. It is filled with dreams and disappointments, romance and myth, or as his book’s subtitle would have it, ―history, legends, and lore‖. But what is history?One might assume that this will be a ―factual‖, realistic narrative of people, times, and places with some legends and lore as condiment. But the ―facts‖ here generally reflect the once-accepted dominant Anglo culture’s belief in Manifest Destiny and the realization of mercantile dreams. And the few attempts at recounting legends and lore often fall flat, given the lack of panache in the telling.Model Test 11TRANSLATION (60MIN)SECTION A CHINESE TO ENGLLSHTranslate the underlined part of the text into English.我们找不出话来了。

Just then the inn-keeper began to steam a plate of millet. Lu Sheng merrily took the pillow and lay down to sleep without even undressing himself.

Translate the following underlined part of the text into English.泼水节是傣族的年节。

按照傣历,它在清明节后四月十三日至十五日之间。

泼水是傣族年节的主要喜庆活动。

人们相互泼水,表示洗去身上一年的污尘,祝福新的一年幸福平安。

泼水有文泼和武泼之分。

文泼是对长者的,舀起一勺净水,说着祝福的话,拉开对方的衣领,让水沿着脊梁流下去,被泼的人高兴地接受祝福。

武泼则没有固定的形式,用瓢、用盆、用桶都可以,互相追逐,迎头盖脸地泼。

被人泼的水越多,说明受到的祝福越多,被泼的人也越高兴。

除了泼水,傣族年节还有赛龙船、放高升、放火花等活动。

SECTION B: ENGLISH TO CHINESETranslate the following underlined part of the text into Chinese.Scientists say that every time we sleep we dream. Some people say that they very seldom or never dream. These scientists would then say that such people have just forgotten their dreams, not that they have not dreamt. So if we dream every night, what use does dreaming have?Some say that dreaming is very important, that it can predict future troubles and joys or that the monsters and demons in our dreams represent our deepest anxieties and fears. Some say though that a nightmare does not necessarily have a negative meaning.For example, dreaming of your own death is highly frightening and can cause you to wake suddenly from dreaming, your whole body covered in sweat with fright. However the meaning of this dream is not death, but a turning point in life, the future has no limits and you can achieve full success. On the other hand dreaming of finding moneyactually means you will lose something.However you cannot just say that a good dream means something bad and a bad dream means something good, it all depends on the circumstances. Take for example dreaming of water; clear water can indicate riches, muddy water indicates disputes. If the water is hot then you must guard against unexpected dangers.This all may be very interesting, but I feel I have some kind of duty to inform everyone that there are some experts who say that dreams have no meaning at all. Dreams are no more than the brain sorting through various things while we sleep and it is best if we forget them altogether.The number of motor vehicles using the roads in Great Britain(1) has increased.

Instead, not only has (4)(5) there been an increase in numbers, and what is also (5)(6) highly significant, there has been a great increase (6)(7) in the speed and sizes of the vehicles, and it is (7)(8) this never-growing density of road traffic, as well (8)(9) as the high speed which it travels, that must be (9))(10) reckoned between the chief causes of road accidents.
