five,mymothertakingitdowntodictation。1。grew後加up2。conscience改成consciousness3。soon改成sooner4.the和child之间加middle5。disagreeing改成disagreeable6。imaginative改成imaginary7.literal改成literary8。in去掉9.which前加in10。Therefore，改成Nevertheless改錯題出自：GeorgeOrwell的《WhyIWrite》的前两段第1個錯误出目前grew.解析:grow表成長，如人和動植物的成長。假如要表“長大"就要用短語：growup。2。句中conscience有如下的释义:1。良心，良知2。良知1.良心2。第三类法庭而consciousness表达1。意识到,懂得.2.意识，覺悟3.意识状态4。清醒句子的意思是：我意识到這是在违反我的本性。3。第三句考固定搭配：soonerorlater迟早。难點:outrage违反做動詞。4。按句子意思作者排行老二家裏上面和下面均有個小孩因此加上middle5.disagreeing為disagree的ing，意思是“不一样意不认同”。改為：disagreeable表1.不合意的；不快乐的；讨厌的2.难相处的，脾气壞的6。imaginative改成imaginary，解析：imaginative表达人富有想像力的；富于想像的；有发明力的.

而imaginary表达想像中的；虚构的;幻想的如：animaginaryfriend想像中的朋友7。literal表“文字的”改成literary指文學作者的文學的志向与野心8。

facesth.直面某個事实。不用接介詞in9.定語從句，修饰world，有介詞要用在which前，不能省略10。Therefore，改成Nevertheless句子有转折的意思，作者說他一直沉溺在自已的内心世界，然而童年時代所写的東西数目不多。而非因此，童年所写的東西不多。3月专八真題：改錯部分Sofaraswecantell，allhumanlanguagesareequallycompleteandperfectasinstrumentsofcommunication：thatis,（1)everylanguageappearstobewellequippedasanyothertosay（2）thethingstheirspeakerswanttosay.(3)Theremayormaynotbeappropriatetotalkaboutprimitivepeoplesorcultures,butthatisanothermatter。Certainly，notallgroupsofpeopleareequallycompetentinnuclearphysicsorpsychologyorthecultivationofriceortheengravingofBenaresbrass.（4）Whereasthisisnotthefaultoftheirlanguage。TheEskimoscan（5)speakaboutsnowwithagreatdealfurtherprecisionandsubtletythanwecaninEnglish，butthisisnotbecausetheEskimolanguage（oneofthosesometimesmiscalled’primitive')isinherentlymorepreciseandsubtlethanEnglish.（6)ThisexampledoesnotcometolightadefectinEnglish，ashowofunexpected'primitiveness'.Thepositionissimplyandobviouslythat(7）theEskimosandtheEnglishliveinsimilarenvironments.TheEnglishlanguage（8）willbejustasrichintermsfordifferentkindsofsnow，presumably,iftheenvironments（9）inwhichEnglishwashabituallyusedmadesuchdistinctionasimportant。Similarly，wehavenoreasontodoubtthattheEskimolanguagecouldbeaspreciseandsubtleonthesubjectofmotormanufactureorcricket(10)ifthesetopicsformedthepartoftheEskimos'life.Forobvioushistoricalreasons，Englishmeninthe19thcenturycouldnottalkaboutmotorcarswiththeminutediscriminationwhichispossibletoday：carswerenotapartoftheirculture。Buttheyhadahostoftermsforhorse-drawnvehicleswhichsendus,puzzled,toahistoricaldictionarywhenwearereadingScottorDickens.Howmanyofuscoulddistinguishbetweenachaise,alandau,avictoria,abrougham,acoupe,agig,adiligence,awhisky,acalash,atilbury,acarriole,aphaeton，andaclarence？1be後插入as;2their改為its；3There改為It;4Whereas改為But5further改為more6come改為bring；7similar改為different；8will改為would;9asimportant去掉as10thepart去掉the3月专八真題参照答案:改錯部分Theprevioussectionhasshownhowquicklyarhymepassesfromoneschoolchildtothenextandillustratesthefurtherdifference

3。答案：in→on

【详细解答】固定搭配on。。.occasions

4。答案：rely^→relyon

【详细解答】固定搭配relyonsb.todosomething

5。答案:makeout→make

【详细解答】makeout意思是“识别出"，而此处意思是“對.。。做详细的研究”，故用“makedetailedstudiesof。.。”即可。

6.答案：its→their

【详细解答】此处指代的是“investigations”,故用复数。

7。答案：^public→thepublic

【详细解答】the+adj。可表达某一类人，此处意思是“面向公众”，故应用“thepublic”.

8.答案:nevertheless→therefore/thus

【详细解答】此处不是表达意思的转折,而是与前文构成因果关系，故可改為therefore或thus。

9.答案:interests→interest

【详细解答】此处當作不可数名詞為佳

10。答案：these→those

【详细解答】those指代witnesses,即指代名詞复数做定語從句的先行詞,而these不行3月专八真題参照答案:改錯部分DemographicindicatorsshowthatAmericansinthepostwar

2．答案:删除a

【详细解答】此处steadydecline指稳定下降的行為、過程而不是其成果，為不可数名詞，故应去掉定冠詞a。

3．答案:went∧→on

【详细解答】goon為固定搭配，意為“持续”。

4．答案：high→higher

【详细解答】

背面有than，此处应為比较级.

5．答案：Europe→European

【详细解答】根据上下文，此处应用形容詞作定語修饰名詞counterparts。

6．答案：more【详细解答】由上下文可知，more与equally矛盾,故应去掉。

7．答案：nevertheless→also

【详细解答】由上下文可知，此处讲的内容与前部分内容之间為递進关系，而非转折关系。

8．答案：that→those

【详细解答】由上下文可知，此处所指代的应為前面复数形式的marriages，故指示代詞也应當用复数形式。

9．答案：Since→Although（或While）

【详细解答】從逻辑上讲，此处应体現让步关系,而非因果关系。

10．答案：in→to

【详细解答】to．．．extent為固定搭配，意為“到……程度”改錯Therearegreatimpedimentstothegeneraluseofastandardinpronunciation

10.___答案与详解1。答案：and→while/whereas【详细解答】前半句意為“发音是在無意识之中學成的”,後半句意為“拼写是故意识地學成的"，它們之间是對比关系，故应當用连詞while来连接。2。答案：with→of【详细解答】beunconsciousof是固定搭配,意為“無意识地，未意识到”。即“我們之中诸多人一辈子都不懂得自已的话听起来是什么样的"。3.答案:speak∧→out【详细解答】speakout意為“大胆地說出”,在這裏句意不通。在speakout中加上it，指代前面的speech,意為“當我們說出话後,自已听起来像什么”。4.答案：firstly→first【详细解答】firstly表达次序中的“第一"，first则表达時间上的“第一次，初次”.這裏是說“當我們第一次听到自已的录音時，一般會震惊”。故应将firstly改為first才合乎句意.5.答案：which→that【详细解答】在定語從句中，假如先行詞是代詞something，everything,nothing,little,few等時，关系詞应用that而不是which，故此处应将which改為that。6.答案：went→go【详细解答】本文通篇用的都是一般目前時,因此此处也应用一般目前時，使上下文保持時态一致。7.答案：删除per或every【详细解答】per和every都是“每"的意思，在此属反复錯误，故将两者去掉一种即可。8。答案：This→It【详细解答】根据句子构造，句中缺乏一形式主語，而作形式主語的只能是代詞it，this是“這”的意思，不能用做形式主語,因此应将this改為it。9。答案：community∧→together【详细解答】hold意為“抓住，占据，包括”。此处想体現的意思是“語言用作使小区具有凝聚力、給人归属感的一种方式”，用holdacommunity不能体現此意；holdsth．together表达“使結合在一起不破，使团結一致”的意思，符合句意。10。答案：far→away【详细解答】要体現距离上的遠近，在英語中一般用副詞away。far表达“遠，從（到)很遠距离”,不合句意。3月专八真題参照答案:改錯部分Duringtheearlyyearsofthiscentury,wheatwasseenasthe

答案：

1。strict改為strictly

2.holiday改為holidays.由于原句的谓語動詞為复数are，因此holiday必须使用复数。此外no背面可以用复数也可以用單数。

3。which前面加上on。由于先行詞theday在关系從句钟做状語，還原回去应為:eachholidayiscelebratedontheday，因此必须加on。

4.obsevation改為observance.observation意思為“观测，观测”，observance则表达“遵守，庆祝”。

5.Independent改為Independence.独立曰的說法是“IndependenceDay”。

6.apart改為aside。setapart指“使分离，使分開”，語义不一样，setaside表达“留出,保留”的意思.

7.at改為in

8.begun改為beginning。動詞begin和分句的主語federalemployees的关系是积极的，应此要用beginning.

9.three—days改為three-day。用连字符连接起来的表达数量的名詞的前置修饰語的复数概念仍然是單数,如：amillion—poundbanknote.

10。also前面加had。假如一种句子裏面有by引导的時间状語從句则動詞一般用完毕体.专八改錯模拟題2Nowyou’veseentheadsforcomputersfor“free”oralmost_1_
