专八改错模拟题1 Successful aging is a psychological feat. Fear for _1_ death, for example, may sometimes oppress you. even when this is successfully overcome, there is still something for you to deal with-loneliness. Loneliness can speed your demise no matter conscientiously _2_ you care for your body. “ We go through life surroundedby protective convoys of others,” says Robert Kahn, a psychologist of the University of Michigan who studied the health effects of companionship. “ People _3_who manage to maintain a network of social support do best.” One study of elderly heart-attack patients found that those with two or more close associations _4_ enjoyed twice the one-year survival rate of those who were completely alone. Companionship aside, healthy oldsters seem to share a knack for managing stress, poison that contributes _5_ measurably to heart disease, cancer and accidents. Researchers have also been kinked successful aging _6_ to mental stimulation. An idle brain will deteriorate just as sure as an unused leg, notes Dr. Gene Cohen, _7_ Head of the gerontology center at George Washington University. But just as exercise can prevent muscle _8_ atrophy, mental challenges seem to preserve both the mind and the immune system. But what most impresses researchers who study the oldest old is his simple drive and resilience. “ People who reach 100 _9_are not quitters,” says Adler of the National Centenarian Awareness Project. “ They share a remarkable ability torenegotiate life in every turn, to accept the inevitable losses _10_ And move on.” 参考答案及解析: 1.把 for 改为 of 与 fear 搭配的介词通常是of,表示对 , 的恐惧。2.在 no matter 后面加上how 3.在 studied 前面加上has 本文的基调是一般现在时,此句的主语也是现在时,定语从句介绍Roberts 做过的研究项目,所以用现在完成时比较合适。4.把 associations改为 associates本句的意思是:一项对高龄心脏病人的研究发现,有两个或者两个以上亲密伙伴陪同的病人在一年危险期的幸存几率是完全无人陪伴的病人的两倍。5.在 poison 前面加上 a 不定冠词修饰不可数名词,该名词后面再加上定语成分对该词进一步说明。 6.删除 been7.把 sure 改为 surely 8.把 but 改为 and 本句与上一段最后一句在结构(just as)上相似,在意义上是递进关系,不应该用转折连词衔接,用and 合适。9.把 his 改为 their 此处的代词应该代替the oldest old, the oldest old 表示一类人可以用单数也可以用复数, 但是下文提到这些年事极高的老人都用了复数,所以此处也要改为复数,使上下文一致。名师资料总结 - - -精品资料欢迎下载 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 名师精心整理 - - - - - - - 第 1 页,共 3 页 - - - - - - - - - 10.把 in 改为 at 词组 at every turn 意思为“时时,经常” 。专八改错模拟题2 Why does the idea of progress loom so large in the modern world? Surely because progress of particu- lar kind is actually taking place around us and is more and more manifesting. Although mankind has underg- _1_ one no general improvement in intelligence or morali- ty, it has made extraordinary progress in the accumu- lation of knowledge. Knowledge begins to increase as _2_ soon as the thoughts of one individual could be com- municated to another by mean of speech. With the in- _3_ vention of writing, knowledge could be communicated and stored. Libraries made education possible, and education in turn added libraries: the growth of knowl- _4_ edge followed a kind of compound-interest law, which was greatly enhanced by the invention of print- ing. All this was comparatively slow until, with the coming of science, the tempo was suddenly risen. _5_ then knowledge began to be accumulated according to a systematic plan. However, as soon as new knowl- _6_ edge is acquired, it is now turned to practical ac- count. What is called “ modern civilization” is not theresult of a balanced development of all man s nature,but not of accumulated knowledge applied to practical _7_ life. The problem now facing humanity is: what is go- ing to be done with all this knowledge? Like is often _8_ pointed out, knowledge is a two edged weapon which could be used equally for good or evil. It is now being _9_ used indifferently for both. Could any spectacle, for instance, be more grimly whimsical than that gunners _10_ using science to shatter men s bodies while, close at hand, surgeons use it to restore them. 参考答案及解析: 1.把 manifesting 改为 manifestmanifesting 不能做形容词,而如果把它理解成现在进行词 ,后面又缺乏宾语,所以应该改为形容词manifest,表示 “显然的 ,明显的” . 2.把 begins改为 began根据下一行出现的could 可以判断本句是过去时.3.把 mean改为 means. by means of 是固定用法 . 4.在 added 后面加上to 如果 add 后面不加to,此句就表示“把图书馆加到某个事物上去”,加上 to,表示给图书馆增加了内容,符合句义 .5.把 risen 改为 raised.rise 是不及物动词 ,不能用于被动语态 .6.把 However 改为 Moreover 此句的意思是 :新知识一经获得,马上就得到实际应用.这是对上文的追加,不存在转折关系,因此应该用moreover.7.删除 but 后面的 not8.把 Like 改为As 9.把 could 改为 can 主句为现在时 ,而从句也不表示虚拟,所以应该用现在时. 10.在 that 后面加上of.为了避免重复 ,这里用 that 指代 spectacle,后面的 gunner using 是 that 的内容 .因此应该用介词of 引出 . 名师资料总结 - - -精品资料欢迎下载 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 名师精心整理 - - - - - - - 第 2 页,共 3 页 - - - - - - - - - 专八改错模拟题3 A history of long and effortless success can be a dreadful handicap, but, if properly handling, it may become a driving force. When _1_ the United States entered just such a glowing period after the end of the Second World War, it had a market eight times larger than any other competitor, given its industries unparalleled economies of scale. Its _2_ scientists were the world s best, its workers the most skilled. Americaand Americans were prosperous beyond the dreams of the Europeans and Asians whose economies that the war had destroyed. _3_ It was inevitable that this primacy should have narrowed as other countries grew richer. Just as inevitably, the retreat from predominance proved painful. By the mid-1980s Americans found _4_ themselves at a loss over their fading industrial competition. Some _5_ huge American industries, such as consumer electronic, had shrunk _6_ or vanished in the face of foreign competition. Foreign-made cars and textiles were sweeping into the domestic market and Amer ica smachine-tool industry was on the rope. For a while it looked as _7_ though the making of semiconductors, which America had sat at the _8_ heart of the new computer age, was going to be the next casualty. All of this caused a crisis of confidence. Americans stopped talking prosperity for grant. They be* to believe that their way of doing _9_ business was failing, and that their incomes would therefore shortly begin to fall as well. The mid-1980 brought one inquiry after _10_ another into the c auses of Americas industrial decline. Their sometimessensational findings were filled with warnings about growing competitionfrom overseas. 1.handling 改为 handled.这里 handle和主句的主语it 是被动关系。2.given 改为 giving. 动词 give的主语是前面整个分句“it had a market eight times larger than any competitor”,它和 give 的关系是主动的,所以用giving 。3.去掉 that.whose 在这里引导关系从句修饰the Europeans and Asians,因此这里不能再出现一个关系代词that 了。 4.found 前加上 had.by 引导的时间状语出现在一个句子里,它的主句动词往往是完成体。petition 改为 competitiveness.fading在这里表示 “ 日益丧失的 ” ,后面的名词短语应该表示“ 工业竞争力 ” ,而 competition 表示 “ 竞争” ,并不表示 “ 竞争能力 ” 。6.electronic 改为 electronics.electronic 是形容词表示“ 电子的 ” ,这里应该用electronics,表示“ 电子装置和组件” 7.rope 改为 ropes.on the ropes 表示 “ 濒于失败或崩溃” ,其中 rope 是以复数形式出现的,所以应该为ropes。在另一个短语the end of ones rope, rope 则是单数,表示“ 某人耐心,耐力的限度” 。8.had 后面加上which/that这句话里面有两个关系从句,而且一个之中套另一个:which America had 是第一层关系从句,which sat at the heart of the new computer age 是第二层,它们所修饰的都是semiconductors,所以如果看不出两层关系从句就很难找出错误来。9.grant 改为granted.take for granted 是一个短语表示“ 想当然 ” 。10.mid-1980 改为mid-1980s 名师资料总结 - - -精品资料欢迎下载 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 名师精心整理 - - - - - - - 第 3 页,共 3 页 - - - - - - - - -
