1.在grow后加up,考固定短语

2.改consience为consciousness考词语区别，consience翻译为"良心，道德心”,consiousness翻译为“意

识”

3.改soon为sooner,sooneroriater是固定短语

4.在child前加middle,考上下文理解。作者是三个孩子句中的那位

5。改disagreeing为disagreeable,disagreeing只能作动名词，不能作形容词。disagreeable

mannernisms令人讨厌的习惯

6.改imaginative为imaginary,考词语区别imaginative翻译为“有想象力的"，imaginary翻译为"想象

的，虚构的”

7.改literal为literary,考词义区别，literal翻译为“字面的“，literary翻译为“文学方面的,,

8.去掉face后的in,face接宾语时是及物动词。考动词的基本用法

9.在world后加in或者改which为where,考定语从句

10.改Therefore为However或者Nevertheness,考语境。

感悟：11专八改错相对前几年专八改错要简单一点。本人认为词义区别考得过多了。

1.investing应改为invested,过去分词作定语

2.在irrespective和fluctuations之间加上介词of。irrespectiveOf是一固定用法，意指“不论，不管，不

顾，”等，此处指公司不顾收入的波动变化。

3.把those改为that,that此处代替outlook

4.在fact和economic之间力口上关系代词that。这是一个同位语从语，that在同位语从句中是不能省

略的.

5.把定冠词the去掉,inschool表示上学这个抽象意义

6.把形容词poor改为其比较级poorero这句中的poor与后面的more形成一对比较关系，表示“越..

越……”

7.在ways和which之间加上一个介词in。

8.这里应该用动词的一Ing形式，即eliminating,以便使句型结构与前面的giving(studentsagovernance

role)保持一致，否则句子结构和意思都显得不正确。

9.将shorten(缩短；使变短)改为reduce/lesson/weaken。此处属于用词不当。

10.将togivediscountson改为togivediscountstotheirbestcustomero意为实业公司给最好的客户提

供优惠。Givediscountstosb为固定短语

1.在set后加up,setup”建立、成立”是固定短语

2.答案：consisted—consisting/composed

3.答案：in—►on

【详细解答】固定搭配on...occasions

4.答案rely后加on

【详细解答】固定搭配relyonsb.todosomething

5.答案：makeout—>make

【详细解答】makeout意思是“辨认出”，而此处意思是“对…做详细的研究”，故用“makedetailed

studiesof../9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,可表示某一类人，此处意思是“面向公众”，故应用“thepublic”。

8.答案：nevertheless-therefore/thus

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

9.答案：interests—>interest

【详细解答】此处看成不可数名词为佳

答案：these-those

【详细解答】those指代witnesses,即指代名词复数做定语从句的先行词，而these不行

homemakerwasnotabandoned.

1.答案：height-high,high作为名词翻译为"最高水平"，又如reachanall-timehigh

2.答案：删除a

【详细解答】此处steadydecline指稳定下降的行为、过程而不是其结果，为不可数名词，故应去

掉定冠词a.

3.答案：went后加on

【详细解答】goon为固定搭配，意为“持续”。

4.答案：high—>higher

【详细解答】后面有than,此处应为比较级。

5.答案：Europe—>European

【详细解答】根据上下文，此处应用形容词作定语修饰名词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为递进关系，而非转折关系。

8.答案：that—those

【详细解答】由上下文可知，此处所指代的应为前面复数形式的marriages,故指示代词也应该用

复数形式。

9.答案：Since^Although（或While）

【详细解答】从逻辑上讲，此处应表达让步关系，而非因果关系。

10.答案：in-to

【详细解答】to...extent为固定搭配，意为“到……程度”

1.答案：

【详细解答】前半句意为“发音是在无意识之中学成的”，后半句意为“拼写是有意识地学成的”，它们之

间是对比关系，故应该用连词while来连接。

2.答案：

【详细解答】beunconsciousof是固定搭配，意为“无意识地，未意识到"。即“我们之中很多人一辈子

都不知道自己的话听起来是什么样的”。

3.答案：speak后加it

【详细解答】speakout意为“大胆地说出“，在这里句意不通。在speakout中加上it,指代前面的speech,

意为“当我们说出话后，自己听起来像什么”。

4.答案：

【详细解答】firstly表示顺序中的“第一”，first则表示时间上的“第一次，首次“。这里是说“当我们第

一次听到自己的录音时，通常会震惊”。故应将firstly改为first才合乎句意。

5.答案：

【详细解答】在定语从句中，如果先行词是代词something,everything,nothing,little,few等时,关

系词应用that而不是which,故此处应将which改为that。

6.答案：

【详细解答】本文通篇用的都是一般现在时，所以此处也应用一般现在时，使上下文保持时态一致。

7.答案：删除per或

【详细解答】per和every都是“每”的意思，在此属重复错误，故将两者去掉一个即可。

8.答案：

【详细解答】根据句子结构，句中缺少一形式主语，而作形式主语的只能是代词it,this是“这”的意思,

不能用做形式主语，所以应将this改为it。

9.答案：community后加

【详细解答】hold意为“抓住，占据，包含九此处想表达的意思是“语言用作使社区具有凝聚力、给人

归属感的一种方式"，用holdacommunity不能表达此意；holdsth.together表示“使结合在一起不破,

使团结一致”的意思，符合句意。

10.答案：

【详细解答】要表达距离上的远近，在英语中通常用副词away。far表示“远，从（到）很远距离”，

不合句意。
