（无语。。一些很明显的错误都没改出来。。）
参考答案及解析:
1 将had used 改为 used。
因为此句是虚拟语气，表示与现在事实相反，故条件从句中应使用一般过去时。例如：
Many would be wise if they did not think themselves wise. 许多人原本会成为聪明人－如果他们不自以为聪明的话。
2 将publishing改为published
report和publish时逻辑动宾关系，故应使用publish的过去分词短语来修饰report。例如：
Any discovery that we may make, however small, will remain acquired knowledge. 任何可能的发现，不管多么微不足道，都将成为知识宝库中的一部分。
3 将theirs改为their
4 将among改为between
在两次怀孕期间留出足够的间隔时间，故用between。
5 将过去分词excluded改为介词excluding。
excluding意为“不包括…”
6 将respectably改为respectively
respectively 意为 “分别地 ”，符合句子的意思。而respectably意为 “可敬的，值得尊敬地 ”。
7将evidences改为evidence。
evidence是不可数名词。
8将ill改为illness。
9将year改为years。
10将lesser改为less

The new houses, typically in the suburbs,were often small and more or less identical, but it satisfied_____9_____a deep need. Many regarded the single-family house the basis of their_____10_____way of life.
答案：1 将no改为 not
2 将place改为land
place是可数名词，作“地方”讲，而land意为“土地，田地”是不可数名词。例如：
Solitude is a good place to visit but a poor place to stay.
当你偶尔光顾时，独处是一个美妙的境地，但是如果久留，它却是一个糟糕的地方。
There is a vacant piece of land near the house; we can buildthere.
3 将started改为startwww.ｙeeyi.Net
start应使用不定式，以和前面的find，build一致。
4 将working改为work。
work应该用第三人称复数，和live一致。另外，family在这里作“家人”讲，是复数。
5 将anyone改为everyone
这里是要用everyone指每个人，而不是要用anyone泛指。
6 将but删除
7将before改为after
根据上下文判断，这里要表达的是二战之后。
8 将But改为 And
根据语意，这里要表达的是递进关系，而不是转折关系。例如：
When I do good, I feel good. When I do bad, I feel bad. Andthat’s my religion.
当我行善事，我感到坦然；当我行恶时，我感到内疚。这就是我的人生之道。
9 将it改为they
10 在house the中间加入介词as
regard…as 作“把……当作……”讲。
We live in a society whichthere is a lot of talk about science, but I would say _____1_____
that there are not 5 percent of the people who are equipped withschool, including
college, to understand scientific reasoning. We are moreignorant of science as people _____2_____
with comparable education in Western Europe.
There are a lot of kids who know everything about computers—howto build
them, how to take them apart, and how to write programs forgames. So if you ask _____3_____
them to explain about the principles of physics that have goneinto creating the _____4_____
computer, you don’t have faintest idea. _____5_____
The failure to understand science leads to such things like theneglect of human _____6_____
creative power. It also takes rise to blurring of thedistinction between science and _____7_____
technology. Lots of people don’t differ between the two. Scienceis the production of _____8_____
new knowledge that can be applied or not, andtechnology is the application of
knowledge to the production of some products,machinery or the like. The two are
really different, and people who have the faculty for one veryseldom have a
faculty for the others. _____9_____
Science in itself is harmless, more or less. But assoon as it can provide technology,
it’s not necessarily harmful. No society has yet learned toforecast the consequences of _____10_____
new technology, which can be enormous.
答案：
1.在which前加in，或将which改为where
在这里which引导限制性从句，修饰先行词the society。in which 在从句中作状语，当然也可以用关系副词where引导定语从句，并在从句中作状语，例如：壹壹英语(www.YeeYi.Net)
Money is a bottomless sea, in which honor, conscience, and truthmay be drowned.
2.将as 改为than
3.将So改为But或者However或者Nevertheless。
因为这里上下文是转折关系。
4.将about去掉
因为explain是及物动词。
5.将you改为they
6.将like改为as
因为such as 是固定搭配。www.ｙeeyi.Net
7.将takes改为gives
give rise to表示“引起，导致”之意。
8.将differ改为 distinguish
牵着表示“有区别”。后者表示“区分，找出……的差别。
9.将others改为other
这样the other就和上文的one构成固定搭配，表示在两个中“一个……；另外一个……”
10.将harmful改为harmless，只有这样才可以表达上下文的对比关系。
What is a black hole? Well, itis difficult to answer the question,
as the terms we would normally use to describe a scientificphenomenon __1__
are adequate here. Astronomers and scientists think that a blackhole is __2__
a region of space which matter has fallen and from which nothingcan __3__
escape—not even light. But we can’t see a black hole. A blackhole __4__
exerts a strong gravitational pull and yet it has no matter. Itis only
space—or thus we think. How can this happen? __5__
The theory is that some stars explode when their densityincreases
to a particular point; they “collapse” and sometimes a supernovaoccurs.
The collapse of a star may produce a “White Dwarf” of a“neutronstar”—
a star which matter is so dense that if continually shrinks bythe force of __6___
its own gravity. But if the star is very large, this process ofshrinking may
be so intense that a black hole results in. Imagine the earthreduced to the __7__
size of a marble, but still having the same masses and astronger __8__
gravitational pull, and you have some ideas of the force of ablack hole. __9__
And no matter near the black hole is sucked in. __10__
答案：supernova 名词，[天]超新星
1 将as 改为since或者because。在表示原因的连接词中，只有as引导的原因状语从句不能位于主句之后，只能位于句首。壹壹英语考试
2 将adequate 改为inadequate，或者在are后加not。从逻辑上分析，因为我们拥有的科学术语“不充足”，所以才无法回答这个问题，所以用否定形式。
3 在which 前加into。这是一个定语从句，意思是“黑洞是太空中物质可以掉进去的地方”，所以定语从句应该为“into which matter hasfallen”。
4 将but 改为 so。 上文已提到“连光都无法从黑洞中逃出”，所以我们根本无法看到黑洞。这里应该是因果关系，而不是转折关系。
5 将thus改为so。这句话的意思是“那只是空间—或者我们认为它只是空间”。so做 think 的宾语，thus 只能做连词，不能做宾语。
6 将which 改为whose。这个定语从句的意思是“它是一颗星，其密度非常大，由于自身的引力，它在不断地收缩”。matter 属于star，所以关系代词应该用whose。
7 去掉in。result为不及物动词，意为“形成了”，而“result in sth。”意为“导致某结果”。
8 将masses 改为mass。mass 可指“大量的物质”，而“the masses”特指“劳动群众”，用在此处不妥。
9 将ideas 改为idea。“idea”在表达“印象”时，为不可数名词，不可以用复数。
10 将no改为any。分析便知，任何在黑洞附近的东西都会被吸进去。
The great whales are among themost fascinating creatures which __1__have ever lived on the earth, and one ofthem, the blue whale, is the largest. People in ancient times thought whales asfearsome __2__monsters of the ocean depths. So to hunt a whale, when oneoccasionally swam toward shore, he was high adventure. People __3__found theadventure was rewarding, too, for the oil and meat from one whale alone couldheat and feed a village for a whole winter.Whales resemble huge fish. They werereferred by the ancients as __4__“great fish,” and any whale beaching along thecoasts of England was designated “the King’s fish” because it automaticallybelonged to the Crown.Ever since those early times, human have felt whales asense of __5__wonder mixed with an intense desire to capture, slaughter, andexploit. Now the slaughter has reached alarming proportions. __6__Even thoughsome species are protected by the regulations of the International WhalingCommission and theoretically all whale hunting is regulated, but the earth’sstock of whales is still being __7__depleted. In fact, some scientists worrythat 100 years since now __8__there may be no whales left. If this happens,mankind will be blame for removing from the earth forever a remarkable and__9__awe-inspiring creature that always fed man’s imagination and __10__madethe world a more exciting place
Key
1 将which改为that。先行词由最高修饰时定语从句的关系代词只能用that。
2 在thought 后面加of，或者将thought 改为regarded。“thinkof A as B”，指“把A看作B”，为固定搭配。壹壹英语论坛
3 去掉he。这句话的主语是“to hunt a whale”，“tohunt a whale was high adventure”。中间的
“when…”只是插入的状语从句。
4 在referred后加to。“refer to A as B”只“把A称作B”，这句话的意思是“古人把鲸称作大鱼”。
5 在felt 后加for。这句话实际的结构是“feel a sense of wonderfor whales”指“对鲸怀有惊奇的感觉”，for引出对象。来源：www.Yeeyi.net
6 在exploit后加them。capture，slaughter，exploit都是及物动词，后面必须加宾语。
7 去掉but。前面已有“even though”，后面就不应该再用but。
8 将since改为from。“100 years from now”指“从现在起100年后”since 只能用于完成时。
9 在blame前加to。“be to blame for sth ”指“对某事应负责任”，为固定搭配。
10 在always前加has。这个定语从句强调对现在的影响，很明显应该用完成时，不能用过去式。
We use language every day. We live in aworld of words. Hardly any moment passes with someone talking,writing or reading. Indeed, __1__languages is most essential tomankind. Our lives increasingly depend on fast and successful use of language.Strangely enough, we know __2__more about things around us than on ourselves.For example, language __3__is species specific, that is, it is language thatdiffers human from __4__animals. However, we do not know yet how exactly weinquire language __5__and how it is possible for us to perceive throughlanguage; nor we __6__understand precisely the combinations between languageand thought, __7__language and logic, or language and culture; stillless, how and when language started. One reason for this inadequate knowledgeof language is that we, like language users, take too many things for granted.__8__Language comes to every normal person so naturally that a few __9__of usstop to question what language is, much less do we feel the necessity to studyit. Language is far more complex than most people have probably imagined andthe necessity to study it is far greater than some people may have assured.Linguistic is a branch of science which __10__takes language as its object ofinvestigation.
答案如下：www.ｙeeyi.NET
1 with 改为 without。”hardyany moment passes without someone…” , 两个否定: without 和hardly，意思是“每一时刻有人……”。
2 fast 前面加the因为fast andsuccessful use 这个词组后边有一个前置词短语 of language 修饰use，所以被修饰的词前面加定冠词。来源：www.Yeeyi.net
3. thanon ourselves 改为than things on ourselves。在这里比较的是两件事：things around us and things on ourselves(我们周围的事物和我们自身的东西)。第二个things不能省略，否则引起误解。
4 differs改为distinguishes。语言区分人与动物，differ是不及物动词，后面不能带宾语，只能用介词，如：Man differs from animals in that man possesses language。
5 inquire改为acquire“习得语言”应该是acquirelanguage，名词短语是language acquisition。 Inquire 是“询问”的意思。
6 we前面加上do 副词nor放在句首表示强调，应用倒装句，一般现在时强调句是在主语前面加助动词 do。
7combination改为relationships.语言和思维的关系，不是结合；语言和思维的关系是当代语言学研究的重要领域。
8 like 改为as。根据上下文，要表达的意思是“作为语言的使用者”，不是“像语言的使用者”。壹壹英语考试
9 a 去掉 这里是否定的意思：“我们没有多少人……”而不是“我们一些人.….”。
10assured 改为 assumed. 这句的后半部分意思是“研究语言的必要性比我们想象的要大得多”。Assure译为“确保”；assume译为“假设”或者“想象”的意思。
Whenever you see an old film, even one madeas little as ten years before, you can’t help being strucked by the__1__appearance of the women taking part. Their hair styles and make-up lookdate; their skirts look either too long or too __2__short; theirgeneral appearance is, in fact, slightly ludicrous.
The mentaking part, on other hand, are clearly recognizable. __3__There is nothingabout their appearance to suggest that they belong to an entire different age.This illusion is created __4__by changing fashions. Over the years, the greatminority of men __5__have successfully resisted all attempts to make it changetheir __6__style of dress. The same cannot be said for women. Each year,a fewerso-called top designers in Paris and London lay down __7__onthe law and women around the world run to obey. The __8__decrees of thedesigners are unpredictable and dictatorial.Sometime they decide arbitrarily,that skirts will be short and __9__waists will be height; hips are in andbuttons are out. __10__
答案：来源：壹壹英语
1strucked改为struck或者stricken。过去分词形式有误。strike的过去式是struck，过去分词为struck或者stricken。
2 date改为dated或者outdated，
3 onother hand 改为 on the other hand
4 entire改为entirely，副词修饰形容词different，并与different一起修饰age。
5minority改为majority。 从上下文以及常识判断，多半男性成功地抵制了改变他们服装款式的企图，即多年来，男性大服装款式跟女性服饰相比没有多大的变化。
6 it改为them，them指代the greatmajority of men。
7 fewer改为few，此处没有比较的意味。
8去掉on。lay down为习语，表示“规定(规则，原则，法规等)”。
9sometime改为 sometimes。壹壹英语论坛
10 height改为high。形容词作be的表语。
Demographic indicators show that Americans in the post warperiod were more eager than ever to establish families. They quickly broughtdown the age at marriage for both men and women and brought the birth rate to atwentieth century height __1__after more than a hundred years of a steadydecline, producing the “baby boom.” __2__These young adults established a trendof early marriage and relatively large families that went for more than twodecades and caused a major but temporary __3__reversal of long-term demographicpatterns. From the 1940s through the early 1960s, Americans married at a highrate and at a ounger age than their __4__Europe counterparts. __5__Less notedbut equally more significant, the men and women who formed __6__familiesbetween 1940 and 1960 nevertheless reduced the divorce rate after a__7__postwar peak; their marriages remained intact to a greater extent than didthat of __8__couples who married in earlier as well as later decades. Since theUnited States__9__maintained its dubious distinction of having the highest divorce rate inthe world,the temporary decline in divorce did not occur in the same extent in Europe. __10__Contrary to fears of the experts, the roleof breadwinner and homemaker was not abandoned.
答案：
1 将height改为high/peak。整句话的大意为他们把男女的婚龄降了下来，使出生率达到了20世纪的高峰。high可以用作名词，意为“高峰”，“高水准”，“最高纪录”。height可以作“极点，顶点”解释。例如：The height of cleverness is to conceal one’s cleverness。
2 将第二个不定冠词a 去掉。steady decline 意为持续的下降，前面不用加冠词。又如：years of hard work。根据语感可以判断出来。
3 在went后加on，或将went改为lasted。此处是“持续”的意思，所以可以用went on 或者last来表达。
4 将high改为higher。此处意为美国人结婚率比以前提高了，有与战前相比的意思，因此应用比较级。
5将Europe改为European。
6 删掉more。此处的大意为战后离婚率也下降了，这个现象不大有人注意，但同样也很重要。另外，more与equally相矛盾。
7 将nevertheless改为also或者删掉nevertheless。此处上下文之间不是转折关系，而是递进关系。
8 将that 改为those。此处的代词应指marriages这个复数名词，因此应用those。此处考察代词与先行词一致的问题。来源：www.Yeeyi.net
9将Since改为Although/Though/While。此处是转折关系，不是因果关系。
10 将in改为to。短语to the extent是固定搭配。
Whenyou start talking about good and bad manners you immediately start meetingdifficulties. Many people just cannot agree what they mean. We asked a
lady, whoreplied that she thought you could tell a well-mannered person on the __1__waythey occupied the space around them—for example, when such a person walks downa street he or she is constantly unaware of others. Such people never__2__bump into other people.However, a second person thought that this was morea question of civilized behavior as good manners. Instead, this other persontold us a story, __3__it he said was quite well-known, about an American whohad been invited __4__to an Arab meal at one of the countries of the Middle East. The American __5__hasn’t been told very muchabout the kind of food he might expect. If he had __6__known about Americanfood, he might have behaved better. __7__Immediately before him was a very flatpiece of bread that looked, to him, very much as a napkin. Picking it up, heput it into his collar, so that __8__it falls across his shirt. His Arab host,who had been watching, __9__said of nothing, but immediately copied the actionof his guest. __10__And that, said this second person, was a fine example of goodmanners.
答案如下：壹壹英语论坛
1将on改为by。“by theway”作“根据……方式”讲。
2 将unaware改为aware.根据下文中的“Sucha person never bump into other people”判断，这种人不会“目中无人”。
3 将as改为than.“more+ adj/of + n + than”是固定搭配。
4 将it改为which.which在此引导一个非限制性定语从句，which在从句中作主语，需要注意的是，在从句中he said是插入语。来源:壹壹英语
5 将at改为in.名词thecountry前要用介词in。
6 将hasn’t改为hadn’t.根据上下文我们可以看出这里需要使用过去完成时。
7 将American改为Arab。根据上文，我们可以看出，这里讲述的是赴“阿拉伯”传统宴会的“美国人”的故事，而不是赴“美国”传统宴会的“美国人”的故事。
8 将as 改为like.介词as意思为“作为”，like意思为“像”。
9 将falls改为fell.这里要使用一般过去时。壹壹英语考试
10 将第一个of删掉。say作为及物动词，后面可直接跟名词作宾语。
Agreat many cities are experiencing difficulties which are nothing new in thehistory of cities, except in their scale. Some cities have lost their originalpurpose and have not found new one. And any large or rich city is__1__going to attract poor immigrants, who flood in, filling with hopes of__2__prosperity which are then often disappointing. There are backward towns onthe edge of Bombay or Brasilia,just as though there were on the edge of __3__seventeenth-century London or early nineteenth-century Paris. This is new is__4__the scale. Descriptions written by eighteenth-century travelers of the poorof Mexico City, and the enormous contrasts that was to be found there, are very__5__dissimilar to descriptions of Mexico City today—the poor can still benumbered __6__in millions.The whole monstrous growth rests on economicprosperity, but behind it lies __7__two myths; the myth of the city as apromised land, that attracts immigrants __8__from rural poverty and brings itflooding into city centers, and the myth of the __9__country as a Garden ofEden, which, a few generations late, sends them flood __10__-ing out again tothe suburbs.
答案：壹壹英语考试
1 在new one前加a.这里one指代上下文中的可数名词purpose，因此该词前要有限定词。
2 将filling改为filled.在这里，非谓语动词fill与句子的who（poorimmigrants）之间是逻辑动宾关系，因此要使用过去分词来表示被动意义。
3 去掉though.
4 将this改为what.根据句子结构，我们可以看出这里需要一个关系代词，它既能引导主语从句，同时也可以在从句中作主语，这个关系代词就是what。如：What I like in a good author is not what hesays，but whathe whispers。
5 将was改为were.that引导定语从句，其先行词是descriptions…andthe enormous contrasts,因此谓语动词be要用复数。
6 将dissimilar改为 similar.这里要表示的是“共同，相似”之处。
7将lies 改为lie.behindit lie two myths 是个倒装句，主语为two myths，可见谓语动词要使用复数。www.yeeyi.net
8 将that改为which.这里是一个非限制性定语从句，因此不可用that，而要用which。
9 将it改为them.复数名词immigrants的代词，所以要用复数形式。
10 将late改为later
Artistsuse caricature to distort the human face or figure for comic affect,__1__while at the same time capturing an identifiable likeness and suggests theessence __2__of the personality or character beneath the surface. Thehumor lies in the fact __3__the caricature is recognizable, and yetexaggerated.
Fromtheir origin in Europe as witty sketches, caricature grew through __4__theeighteenth and nineteenth century, becoming enormously popular in __5__the United Statesearly in this century. In 1920s and 1930s especially,
thislively form of illustration was appeared in newspapers and __6__magazines throughoutthe country. The caricaturists in this era drew his __7__portraits of importantfigures primary to entertain. In spirit their work was __8__close to the humorof the fast-developing comic strip and gag cartoon than to the __9__string ofpolitical satire. Their subjects were more often amusing than offended __10__byamiable attacks.
答案：来源：www.Yeeyi.net
1 将affect改为effect,affect是动词。effect是名词。
2 将suggests改为suggesting,这是一个以while引导的从句，其中suggest应该与capturing并列。www.ｙeeyi.NET
3在fact后面加上that,因为引导同位语从句的关系词不可以省略。
4 将their改为its,这里its指代单数名词caricature
5 将century改为复数形式
6 将was省略,appear是不及物动词，不应用于被动语态。
7 将his改为their,这里指代复数名词the caricaturists
8 将primary改为primarily,primarily在这里做状语，修饰不定式短语
9 将close改为比较级形式closer,从后面的连词than，可以看出，这里使用了比较状语从句
10 将amusing改为 amused,主语subject（受攻击的人）和amuse的逻辑关系是动宾关系，应使用过去分词形式。
Thehunter-gatherer tribes that today live as our prehistoric human __1__ancestorsconsume primarily a vegetable diet supplementing with animal foods __2__Ananalysis of 58 societies of modern hunter-gatherers, including the Kung ofsouthern Africa, revealed that one-half emphasize gathering plants foods,
one-third concentrate on fishing, and only one-sixth areprimarily hunters,Overall, two-thirds and more of the hunter-gatherer’scalories come from _3__plants. Detailed studies of the Kung by the foodscientists at the University of London, showed thatgathering is a more productive source of food than is hunting. An hour ofhunting yields in average about 100 edible __4__calories, as an hour ofgathering produces 240. __5__Plant foods provide for 60 percent to 80 percentof the Kung diet, and no __6__one goes hungry when the hunt fails.Interestingly, if they escape fatal infections or accidents, thesecontemporary aborigines live to old ages despite of the absence __7__of medicalcare. They experience no obesity, no middle-aged spread, little dental decay,no high blood pressure, no heart disease, and their blood cholesterol levelsare very low (about half of the average American adult). __8__If no one issuggesting that we return to an aboriginal life style, we certainly __9__coulduse their eating habits as a model for healthier diet. __10__
答案：www.ｙeeyi.Net
1 将as 改为like。此处的意思是“像史前人类祖先那样生活”。
2 将supplementing改为supplemented。supplemented修饰diet，可以看作which is supplementedwith animal foods的简化形式。
3 将and 改为or。www.ｙeeyi.NET
4将in改为on。on average 是固定用法。
5 将as 改为while或者whereas
6删掉for，或者将provide改为account。此处provide 是及物动词，后面不用介词for
7 删掉第一个of。despite 做介词，后面直接接名词。
8 在half后加that。that 指代前面的blood cholesterol levels，不能省略，因为这里是将部落成员的胆固醇含量与美国人的胆固醇含量相比较。
9将if改为whereas或者while。此处意思为“尽管没有人……,但是……”，是转折关系。
10在for后面加不定冠词a。

There are great impediments to the generaluse of a standard in pronun-ciation comparable to that existing in spelling(orthography). One is the fact that pronunciation is learnt ‘naturally’ andunconsciously, and orthography __1__is learnt deliberately and consciously.Large numbers of us, in fact, remain throughout our lives quite unconscious withwhat our speech sounds __2__like when we speak out, and it often comes as ashock when we __3__firstly hear a recording of ourselves. It is not a voice werecognize at once, __4__whereas our own handwriting is something which wealmost always know. We __5__begin the ‘natural’ learning of pronunciation longbefore we start learning to read or write, and in our early years wewent on unconsciously imitating and __6__practicing the pronunciation of thosearound us for many more hours per every __7__day than we ever have to spendlearning even our difficult English spelling.
This is ‘natural’, therefore, that our speech-sounds should be those of our im-__8__mediate circle; after all, as we have seen, speech operates a means ofholding a community and to give a sense of ‘belonging’. We learn quite early torecognize a __9__‘stranger’, someone who speaks with an accent of a differentcommunity—perhaps only a few miles far. __10__
答案：
1将and改为whereas/but/yet
2 将with改为of。unconsciousof 是固定搭配。
3 删掉out。speak out意思为“大胆地说”，“大声地说”，与此处意思不符。
4将firstly改为first
5将which改为that或者将which删掉。限制性定语从句前面的先行词是something，因此要用that引导定语从句。也可以将which删掉，不用任何引导词。
6将went改为go
7删掉per或者every
8将This改为It。It在此处做形式主语，后面的that从句是真正的主语。www.ｙeeyi.Net
9 在community后面加together。此处的大意为“语音是把社区团结在一起的工具”。
10将far改为away。“只有几英里远”应是 a fewmiles away。
Sporting activities are essentially modified forms of hunting behavior.
Viewing biologically, the modern footballer is revealed as a member of a disguised __1__hunting pack. His killing weapon has turned into a harmless football
and his prey into a goal-mouth. If his aim is inaccurate and he scores a goal, __2__enjoys the hunter’s triumph of killing his prey. __3__To understand how this transformation has taken place we must briefly look up at our ancient ancestors. They spent over a million __4__year evolving as co-operative hunters. Their very survival depended on success __5__in the hunting-field. Under this pressure their whole way of life, even if their __6__bodies, became radically changed. They became chasers, runners, jumpers, aimers, throwers and prey-killers. They co-operate as skillful male-group __7__attackers.
Then, about ten thousand years ago, when this immensely long formative __8__period of hunting for food, they became farmers. Their improved intelligence,
so vital to their old hunting life, were put to a new use—that of penning, __9__controlling and domesticating their prey. The food was there on the farms,awaiting their needs. The risks and uncertainties of farming were no longer __10__essential for survival.
答案：来源：www.yeeyi.net
1 将viewing改为viewed。非谓语动词view和句子的主语是逻辑动宾关系。
2 将inaccurate改为accurate。如果真的目标不准确，也就不可能进球了（he scores a goal）。
3 在enjoys前面加he。由于前面if his aim is accurate and he scores a goal 是条件状语从句，因此可见这里是主句，主句的主语he是不可以省略的。
4 将look up at的up省略
5 将year变为复数
6 将if去掉壹壹英语论坛
7 将co-operate 改为co-operated
8 将when改为after
9将were改为was。该谓语动词的主语是Their improved intelligence，是单数。
10 将farming改为hunting。纵观全文，在从事种植业后，“狩猎”而不是“农耕”的危险和不确定性对人们的生存已经不再那么重要了。

The grammatical wordswhich play so large a part in English grammar are for the most part sharply andobviously different from the lexical words. A rough
and ready difference which may seem the most obvious is thatgrammatical __1__ words have “less meaning”, but in fact some grammarians havecalled them __2__ “empty” words as opposed in the “full” words of vocabulary.But this is a rather __3__ misled way of expressing the distinction. Although aword like the is not the name __4__ of something as man is, it is very far awayfrom being meaningless; there is a __5__ sharp difference in meaning between“man is vile” and “the man is vile”, yet the isthe single vehicle of this difference in meaning. Moreover, grammatical words__6__ differ considerably among themselves as the amount of meaning they haveeven in __7__ the lexical sense. Another name for the grammatical words hasbeen “little words.”
But size is by no mean a good criterion for distinguishing thegrammatical words.” __8__ of English, when we consider that we have lexicalwords as go, man, say, car. __9__ Apart from this, however, there is a gooddeal of truth in what some people say:
we certainly do create a great number of obscurity when we omitthem. This is __10__ illustrated not only in the poetry of Robert Browning butin the prose of telegrams andnewspaper headlines.
答案：
1 删掉the 此处的most并不表示obvious的最高级，而是用作副词修饰obvious，表示程度很高，因此前面不能加the。
2 将but改为and 根据文章的意思，这里要用并列关系的and。
3 将in改为to。 as apposed to 是固定搭配，意思是“与……相比”。
4 将misled改为misleading
5删掉away。 此处考查固定用法。 far from being...意思为“远非”“远远不怎么样”，符合这里的意思。而far away from 表示离某处很远。
6 将single改为only或者sole。这里要表达“唯一的”。
7 在as后面加to或者将as 改为in。联系上下文，此处的意思是“grammatical words 本身在某某方面也有相当的差异，”as to 有“关于”或者“在某某方面的意思”；将as改为in，用differ from something in…也可表达这个意思。
8 将mean改为means来源：壹壹英语
9 将as改为like，或者在as前面加such
10 将number改为deal或者amount。obscurity是不可数名词，不能用anumber of 来修饰。

（无语。。一些很明显的错误都没改出来。。）
参考答案及解析:
1 将had used 改为 used。
因为此句是虚拟语气，表示与现在事实相反，故条件从句中应使用一般过去时。例如：
Many would be wise if they did not think themselves wise. 许多人原本会成为聪明人－如果他们不自以为聪明的话。
2 将publishing改为published
report和publish时逻辑动宾关系，故应使用publish的过去分词短语来修饰report。例如：
Any discovery that we may make, however small, will remain acquired knowledge. 任何可能的发现，不管多么微不足道，都将成为知识宝库中的一部分。
3 将theirs改为their
4 将among改为between
在两次怀孕期间留出足够的间隔时间，故用between。
5 将过去分词excluded改为介词excluding。
excluding意为“不包括…”
6 将respectably改为respectively
respectively 意为 “分别地 ”，符合句子的意思。而respectably意为 “可敬的，值得尊敬地 ”。
7将evidences改为evidence。
evidence是不可数名词。
8将ill改为illness。
9将year改为years。
10将lesser改为less

The new houses, typically in the suburbs,were often small and more or less identical, but it satisfied_____9_____a deep need. Many regarded the single-family house the basis of their_____10_____way of life.
答案：1 将no改为 not
2 将place改为land
place是可数名词，作“地方”讲，而land意为“土地，田地”是不可数名词。例如：
Solitude is a good place to visit but a poor place to stay.
当你偶尔光顾时，独处是一个美妙的境地，但是如果久留，它却是一个糟糕的地方。
There is a vacant piece of land near the house; we can buildthere.
3 将started改为startwww.ｙeeyi.Net
start应使用不定式，以和前面的find，build一致。
4 将working改为work。
work应该用第三人称复数，和live一致。另外，family在这里作“家人”讲，是复数。
5 将anyone改为everyone
这里是要用everyone指每个人，而不是要用anyone泛指。
6 将but删除
7将before改为after
根据上下文判断，这里要表达的是二战之后。
8 将But改为 And
根据语意，这里要表达的是递进关系，而不是转折关系。例如：
When I do good, I feel good. When I do bad, I feel bad. Andthat’s my religion.
当我行善事，我感到坦然；当我行恶时，我感到内疚。这就是我的人生之道。
9 将it改为they
10 在house the中间加入介词as
regard…as 作“把……当作……”讲。
We live in a society whichthere is a lot of talk about science, but I would say _____1_____
that there are not 5 percent of the people who are equipped withschool, including
college, to understand scientific reasoning. We are moreignorant of science as people _____2_____
with comparable education in Western Europe.
There are a lot of kids who know everything about computers—howto build
them, how to take them apart, and how to write programs forgames. So if you ask _____3_____
them to explain about the principles of physics that have goneinto creating the _____4_____
computer, you don’t have faintest idea. _____5_____
The failure to understand science leads to such things like theneglect of human _____6_____
creative power. It also takes rise to blurring of thedistinction between science and _____7_____
technology. Lots of people don’t differ between the two. Scienceis the production of _____8_____
new knowledge that can be applied or not, andtechnology is the application of
knowledge to the production of some products,machinery or the like. The two are
really different, and people who have the faculty for one veryseldom have a
faculty for the others. _____9_____
Science in itself is harmless, more or less. But assoon as it can provide technology,
it’s not necessarily harmful. No society has yet learned toforecast the consequences of _____10_____
new technology, which can be enormous.
答案：
1.在which前加in，或将which改为where
在这里which引导限制性从句，修饰先行词the society。in which 在从句中作状语，当然也可以用关系副词where引导定语从句，并在从句中作状语，例如：壹壹英语(www.YeeYi.Net)
Money is a bottomless sea, in which honor, conscience, and truthmay be drowned.
2.将as 改为than
3.将So改为But或者However或者Nevertheless。
因为这里上下文是转折关系。
4.将about去掉
因为explain是及物动词。
5.将you改为they
6.将like改为as
因为such as 是固定搭配。www.ｙeeyi.Net
7.将takes改为gives
give rise to表示“引起，导致”之意。
8.将differ改为 distinguish
牵着表示“有区别”。后者表示“区分，找出……的差别。
9.将others改为other
这样the other就和上文的one构成固定搭配，表示在两个中“一个……；另外一个……”
10.将harmful改为harmless，只有这样才可以表达上下文的对比关系。
What is a black hole? Well, itis difficult to answer the question,
as the terms we would normally use to describe a scientificphenomenon __1__
are adequate here. Astronomers and scientists think that a blackhole is __2__
a region of space which matter has fallen and from which nothingcan __3__
escape—not even light. But we can’t see a black hole. A blackhole __4__
exerts a strong gravitational pull and yet it has no matter. Itis only
space—or thus we think. How can this happen? __5__
The theory is that some stars explode when their densityincreases
to a particular point; they “collapse” and sometimes a supernovaoccurs.
The collapse of a star may produce a “White Dwarf” of a“neutronstar”—
a star which matter is so dense that if continually shrinks bythe force of __6___
its own gravity. But if the star is very large, this process ofshrinking may
be so intense that a black hole results in. Imagine the earthreduced to the __7__
size of a marble, but still having the same masses and astronger __8__
gravitational pull, and you have some ideas of the force of ablack hole. __9__
And no matter near the black hole is sucked in. __10__
答案：supernova 名词，[天]超新星
1 将as 改为since或者because。在表示原因的连接词中，只有as引导的原因状语从句不能位于主句之后，只能位于句首。壹壹英语考试
2 将adequate 改为inadequate，或者在are后加not。从逻辑上分析，因为我们拥有的科学术语“不充足”，所以才无法回答这个问题，所以用否定形式。
3 在which 前加into。这是一个定语从句，意思是“黑洞是太空中物质可以掉进去的地方”，所以定语从句应该为“into which matter hasfallen”。
4 将but 改为 so。 上文已提到“连光都无法从黑洞中逃出”，所以我们根本无法看到黑洞。这里应该是因果关系，而不是转折关系。
5 将thus改为so。这句话的意思是“那只是空间—或者我们认为它只是空间”。so做 think 的宾语，thus 只能做连词，不能做宾语。
6 将which 改为whose。这个定语从句的意思是“它是一颗星，其密度非常大，由于自身的引力，它在不断地收缩”。matter 属于star，所以关系代词应该用whose。
7 去掉in。result为不及物动词，意为“形成了”，而“result in sth。”意为“导致某结果”。
8 将masses 改为mass。mass 可指“大量的物质”，而“the masses”特指“劳动群众”，用在此处不妥。
9 将ideas 改为idea。“idea”在表达“印象”时，为不可数名词，不可以用复数。
10 将no改为any。分析便知，任何在黑洞附近的东西都会被吸进去。
The great whales are among themost fascinating creatures which __1__have ever lived on the earth, and one ofthem, the blue whale, is the largest. People in ancient times thought whales asfearsome __2__monsters of the ocean depths. So to hunt a whale, when oneoccasionally swam toward shore, he was high adventure. People __3__found theadventure was rewarding, too, for the oil and meat from one whale alone couldheat and feed a village for a whole winter.Whales resemble huge fish. They werereferred by the ancients as __4__“great fish,” and any whale beaching along thecoasts of England was designated “the King’s fish” because it automaticallybelonged to the Crown.Ever since those early times, human have felt whales asense of __5__wonder mixed with an intense desire to capture, slaughter, andexploit. Now the slaughter has reached alarming proportions. __6__Even thoughsome species are protected by the regulations of the International WhalingCommission and theoretically all whale hunting is regulated, but the earth’sstock of whales is still being __7__depleted. In fact, some scientists worrythat 100 years since now __8__there may be no whales left. If this happens,mankind will be blame for removing from the earth forever a remarkable and__9__awe-inspiring creature that always fed man’s imagination and __10__madethe world a more exciting place
Key
1 将which改为that。先行词由最高修饰时定语从句的关系代词只能用that。
2 在thought 后面加of，或者将thought 改为regarded。“thinkof A as B”，指“把A看作B”，为固定搭配。壹壹英语论坛
3 去掉he。这句话的主语是“to hunt a whale”，“tohunt a whale was high adventure”。中间的
“when…”只是插入的状语从句。
4 在referred后加to。“refer to A as B”只“把A称作B”，这句话的意思是“古人把鲸称作大鱼”。
5 在felt 后加for。这句话实际的结构是“feel a sense of wonderfor whales”指“对鲸怀有惊奇的感觉”，for引出对象。来源：www.Yeeyi.net
6 在exploit后加them。capture，slaughter，exploit都是及物动词，后面必须加宾语。
7 去掉but。前面已有“even though”，后面就不应该再用but。
8 将since改为from。“100 years from now”指“从现在起100年后”since 只能用于完成时。
9 在blame前加to。“be to blame for sth ”指“对某事应负责任”，为固定搭配。
10 在always前加has。这个定语从句强调对现在的影响，很明显应该用完成时，不能用过去式。
We use language every day. We live in aworld of words. Hardly any moment passes with someone talking,writing or reading. Indeed, __1__languages is most essential tomankind. Our lives increasingly depend on fast and successful use of language.Strangely enough, we know __2__more about things around us than on ourselves.For example, language __3__is species specific, that is, it is language thatdiffers human from __4__animals. However, we do not know yet how exactly weinquire language __5__and how it is possible for us to perceive throughlanguage; nor we __6__understand precisely the combinations between languageand thought, __7__language and logic, or language and culture; stillless, how and when language started. One reason for this inadequate knowledgeof language is that we, like language users, take too many things for granted.__8__Language comes to every normal person so naturally that a few __9__of usstop to question what language is, much less do we feel the necessity to studyit. Language is far more complex than most people have probably imagined andthe necessity to study it is far greater than some people may have assured.Linguistic is a branch of science which __10__takes language as its object ofinvestigation.
答案如下：www.ｙeeyi.NET
1 with 改为 without。”hardyany moment passes without someone…” , 两个否定: without 和hardly，意思是“每一时刻有人……”。
2 fast 前面加the因为fast andsuccessful use 这个词组后边有一个前置词短语 of language 修饰use，所以被修饰的词前面加定冠词。来源：www.Yeeyi.net
3. thanon ourselves 改为than things on ourselves。在这里比较的是两件事：things around us and things on ourselves(我们周围的事物和我们自身的东西)。第二个things不能省略，否则引起误解。
4 differs改为distinguishes。语言区分人与动物，differ是不及物动词，后面不能带宾语，只能用介词，如：Man differs from animals in that man possesses language。
5 inquire改为acquire“习得语言”应该是acquirelanguage，名词短语是language acquisition。 Inquire 是“询问”的意思。
6 we前面加上do 副词nor放在句首表示强调，应用倒装句，一般现在时强调句是在主语前面加助动词 do。
7combination改为relationships.语言和思维的关系，不是结合；语言和思维的关系是当代语言学研究的重要领域。
8 like 改为as。根据上下文，要表达的意思是“作为语言的使用者”，不是“像语言的使用者”。壹壹英语考试
9 a 去掉 这里是否定的意思：“我们没有多少人……”而不是“我们一些人.….”。
10assured 改为 assumed. 这句的后半部分意思是“研究语言的必要性比我们想象的要大得多”。Assure译为“确保”；assume译为“假设”或者“想象”的意思。
Whenever you see an old film, even one madeas little as ten years before, you can’t help being strucked by the__1__appearance of the women taking part. Their hair styles and make-up lookdate; their skirts look either too long or too __2__short; theirgeneral appearance is, in fact, slightly ludicrous.
The mentaking part, on other hand, are clearly recognizable. __3__There is nothingabout their appearance to suggest that they belong to an entire different age.This illusion is created __4__by changing fashions. Over the years, the greatminority of men __5__have successfully resisted all attempts to make it changetheir __6__style of dress. The same cannot be said for women. Each year,a fewerso-called top designers in Paris and London lay down __7__onthe law and women around the world run to obey. The __8__decrees of thedesigners are unpredictable and dictatorial.Sometime they decide arbitrarily,that skirts will be short and __9__waists will be height; hips are in andbuttons are out. __10__
答案：来源：壹壹英语
1strucked改为struck或者stricken。过去分词形式有误。strike的过去式是struck，过去分词为struck或者stricken。
2 date改为dated或者outdated，
3 onother hand 改为 on the other hand
4 entire改为entirely，副词修饰形容词different，并与different一起修饰age。
5minority改为majority。 从上下文以及常识判断，多半男性成功地抵制了改变他们服装款式的企图，即多年来，男性大服装款式跟女性服饰相比没有多大的变化。
6 it改为them，them指代the greatmajority of men。
7 fewer改为few，此处没有比较的意味。
8去掉on。lay down为习语，表示“规定(规则，原则，法规等)”。
9sometime改为 sometimes。壹壹英语论坛
10 height改为high。形容词作be的表语。
Demographic indicators show that Americans in the post warperiod were more eager than ever to establish families. They quickly broughtdown the age at marriage for both men and women and brought the birth rate to atwentieth century height __1__after more than a hundred years of a steadydecline, producing the “baby boom.” __2__These young adults established a trendof early marriage and relatively large families that went for more than twodecades and caused a major but temporary __3__reversal of long-term demographicpatterns. From the 1940s through the early 1960s, Americans married at a highrate and at a ounger age than their __4__Europe counterparts. __5__Less notedbut equally more significant, the men and women who formed __6__familiesbetween 1940 and 1960 nevertheless reduced the divorce rate after a__7__postwar peak; their marriages remained intact to a greater extent than didthat of __8__couples who married in earlier as well as later decades. Since theUnited States__9__maintained its dubious distinction of having the highest divorce rate inthe world,the temporary decline in divorce did not occur in the same extent in Europe. __10__Contrary to fears of the experts, the roleof breadwinner and homemaker was not abandoned.
答案：
1 将height改为high/peak。整句话的大意为他们把男女的婚龄降了下来，使出生率达到了20世纪的高峰。high可以用作名词，意为“高峰”，“高水准”，“最高纪录”。height可以作“极点，顶点”解释。例如：The height of cleverness is to conceal one’s cleverness。
2 将第二个不定冠词a 去掉。steady decline 意为持续的下降，前面不用加冠词。又如：years of hard work。根据语感可以判断出来。
3 在went后加on，或将went改为lasted。此处是“持续”的意思，所以可以用went on 或者last来表达。
4 将high改为higher。此处意为美国人结婚率比以前提高了，有与战前相比的意思，因此应用比较级。
5将Europe改为European。
6 删掉more。此处的大意为战后离婚率也下降了，这个现象不大有人注意，但同样也很重要。另外，more与equally相矛盾。
7 将nevertheless改为also或者删掉nevertheless。此处上下文之间不是转折关系，而是递进关系。
8 将that 改为those。此处的代词应指marriages这个复数名词，因此应用those。此处考察代词与先行词一致的问题。来源：www.Yeeyi.net
9将Since改为Although/Though/While。此处是转折关系，不是因果关系。
10 将in改为to。短语to the extent是固定搭配。
Whenyou start talking about good and bad manners you immediately start meetingdifficulties. Many people just cannot agree what they mean. We asked a
lady, whoreplied that she thought you could tell a well-mannered person on the __1__waythey occupied the space around them—for example, when such a person walks downa street he or she is constantly unaware of others. Such people never__2__bump into other people.However, a second person thought that this was morea question of civilized behavior as good manners. Instead, this other persontold us a story, __3__it he said was quite well-known, about an American whohad been invited __4__to an Arab meal at one of the countries of the Middle East. The American __5__hasn’t been told very muchabout the kind of food he might expect. If he had __6__known about Americanfood, he might have behaved better. __7__Immediately before him was a very flatpiece of bread that looked, to him, very much as a napkin. Picking it up, heput it into his collar, so that __8__it falls across his shirt. His Arab host,who had been watching, __9__said of nothing, but immediately copied the actionof his guest. __10__And that, said this second person, was a fine example of goodmanners.
答案如下：壹壹英语论坛
1将on改为by。“by theway”作“根据……方式”讲。
2 将unaware改为aware.根据下文中的“Sucha person never bump into other people”判断，这种人不会“目中无人”。
3 将as改为than.“more+ adj/of + n + than”是固定搭配。
4 将it改为which.which在此引导一个非限制性定语从句，which在从句中作主语，需要注意的是，在从句中he said是插入语。来源:壹壹英语
5 将at改为in.名词thecountry前要用介词in。
6 将hasn’t改为hadn’t.根据上下文我们可以看出这里需要使用过去完成时。
7 将American改为Arab。根据上文，我们可以看出，这里讲述的是赴“阿拉伯”传统宴会的“美国人”的故事，而不是赴“美国”传统宴会的“美国人”的故事。
8 将as 改为like.介词as意思为“作为”，like意思为“像”。
9 将falls改为fell.这里要使用一般过去时。壹壹英语考试
10 将第一个of删掉。say作为及物动词，后面可直接跟名词作宾语。
Agreat many cities are experiencing difficulties which are nothing new in thehistory of cities, except in their scale. Some cities have lost their originalpurpose and have not found new one. And any large or rich city is__1__going to attract poor immigrants, who flood in, filling with hopes of__2__prosperity which are then often disappointing. There are backward towns onthe edge of Bombay or Brasilia,just as though there were on the edge of __3__seventeenth-century London or early nineteenth-century Paris. This is new is__4__the scale. Descriptions written by eighteenth-century travelers of the poorof Mexico City, and the enormous contrasts that was to be found there, are very__5__dissimilar to descriptions of Mexico City today—the poor can still benumbered __6__in millions.The whole monstrous growth rests on economicprosperity, but behind it lies __7__two myths; the myth of the city as apromised land, that attracts immigrants __8__from rural poverty and brings itflooding into city centers, and the myth of the __9__country as a Garden ofEden, which, a few generations late, sends them flood __10__-ing out again tothe suburbs.
答案：壹壹英语考试
1 在new one前加a.这里one指代上下文中的可数名词purpose，因此该词前要有限定词。
2 将filling改为filled.在这里，非谓语动词fill与句子的who（poorimmigrants）之间是逻辑动宾关系，因此要使用过去分词来表示被动意义。
3 去掉though.
4 将this改为what.根据句子结构，我们可以看出这里需要一个关系代词，它既能引导主语从句，同时也可以在从句中作主语，这个关系代词就是what。如：What I like in a good author is not what hesays，but whathe whispers。
5 将was改为were.that引导定语从句，其先行词是descriptions…andthe enormous contrasts,因此谓语动词be要用复数。
6 将dissimilar改为 similar.这里要表示的是“共同，相似”之处。
7将lies 改为lie.behindit lie two myths 是个倒装句，主语为two myths，可见谓语动词要使用复数。www.yeeyi.net
8 将that改为which.这里是一个非限制性定语从句，因此不可用that，而要用which。
9 将it改为them.复数名词immigrants的代词，所以要用复数形式。
10 将late改为later

答案：来源：www.Yeeyi.net
1 将affect改为effect,affect是动词。effect是名词。
2 将suggests改为suggesting,这是一个以while引导的从句，其中suggest应该与capturing并列。www.ｙeeyi.NET
3在fact后面加上that,因为引导同位语从句的关系词不可以省略。
4 将their改为its,这里its指代单数名词caricature
5 将century改为复数形式
6 将was省略,appear是不及物动词，不应用于被动语态。
7 将his改为their,这里指代复数名词the caricaturists
8 将primary改为primarily,primarily在这里做状语，修饰不定式短语
9 将close改为比较级形式closer,从后面的连词than，可以看出，这里使用了比较状语从句
10 将amusing改为 amused,主语subject（受攻击的人）和amuse的逻辑关系是动宾关系，应使用过去分词形式。
Thehunter-gatherer tribes that today live as our prehistoric human __1__ancestorsconsume primarily a vegetable diet supplementing with animal foods __2__Ananalysis of 58 societies of modern hunter-gatherers, including the Kung ofsouthern Africa, revealed that one-half emphasize gathering plants foods,
one-third concentrate on fishing, and only one-sixth areprimarily hunters,Overall, two-thirds and more of the hunter-gatherer’scalories come from _3__plants. Detailed studies of the Kung by the foodscientists at the University of London, showed thatgathering is a more productive source of food than is hunting. An hour ofhunting yields in average about 100 edible __4__calories, as an hour ofgathering produces 240. __5__Plant foods provide for 60 percent to 80 percentof the Kung diet, and no __6__one goes hungry when the hunt fails.Interestingly, if they escape fatal infections or accidents, thesecontemporary aborigines live to old ages despite of the absence __7__of medicalcare. They experience no obesity, no middle-aged spread, little dental decay,no high blood pressure, no heart disease, and their blood cholesterol levelsare very low (about half of the average American adult). __8__If no one issuggesting that we return to an aboriginal life style, we certainly __9__coulduse their eating habits as a model for healthier diet. __10__
答案：www.ｙeeyi.Net
1 将as 改为like。此处的意思是“像史前人类祖先那样生活”。
2 将supplementing改为supplemented。supplemented修饰diet，可以看作which is supplementedwith animal foods的简化形式。
3 将and 改为or。www.ｙeeyi.NET
4将in改为on。on average 是固定用法。
5 将as 改为while或者whereas
6删掉for，或者将provide改为account。此处provide 是及物动词，后面不用介词for
7 删掉第一个of。despite 做介词，后面直接接名词。
8 在half后加that。that 指代前面的blood cholesterol levels，不能省略，因为这里是将部落成员的胆固醇含量与美国人的胆固醇含量相比较。
9将if改为whereas或者while。此处意思为“尽管没有人……,但是……”，是转折关系。
10在for后面加不定冠词a。

There are great impediments to the generaluse of a standard in pronun-ciation comparable to that existing in spelling(orthography). One is the fact that pronunciation is learnt ‘naturally’ andunconsciously, and orthography __1__is learnt deliberately and consciously.Large numbers of us, in fact, remain throughout our lives quite unconscious withwhat our speech sounds __2__like when we speak out, and it often comes as ashock when we __3__firstly hear a recording of ourselves. It is not a voice werecognize at once, __4__whereas our own handwriting is something which wealmost always know. We __5__begin the ‘natural’ learning of pronunciation longbefore we start learning to read or write, and in our early years wewent on unconsciously imitating and __6__practicing the pronunciation of thosearound us for many more hours per every __7__day than we ever have to spendlearning even our difficult English spelling.
This is ‘natural’, therefore, that our speech-sounds should be those of our im-__8__mediate circle; after all, as we have seen, speech operates a means ofholding a community and to give a sense of ‘belonging’. We learn quite early torecognize a __9__‘stranger’, someone who speaks with an accent of a differentcommunity—perhaps only a few miles far. __10__
答案：
1将and改为whereas/but/yet
2 将with改为of。unconsciousof 是固定搭配。
3 删掉out。speak out意思为“大胆地说”，“大声地说”，与此处意思不符。
4将firstly改为first
5将which改为that或者将which删掉。限制性定语从句前面的先行词是something，因此要用that引导定语从句。也可以将which删掉，不用任何引导词。
6将went改为go
7删掉per或者every
8将This改为It。It在此处做形式主语，后面的that从句是真正的主语。www.ｙeeyi.Net
9 在community后面加together。此处的大意为“语音是把社区团结在一起的工具”。
10将far改为away。“只有几英里远”应是 a fewmiles away。
Sporting activities are essentially modified forms of hunting behavior.
Viewing biologically, the modern footballer is revealed as a member of a disguised __1__hunting pack. His killing weapon has turned into a harmless football
and his prey into a goal-mouth. If his aim is inaccurate and he scores a goal, __2__enjoys the hunter’s triumph of killing his prey. __3__To understand how this transformation has taken place we must briefly look up at our ancient ancestors. They spent over a million __4__year evolving as co-operative hunters. Their very survival depended on success __5__in the hunting-field. Under this pressure their whole way of life, even if their __6__bodies, became radically changed. They became chasers, runners, jumpers, aimers, throwers and prey-killers. They co-operate as skillful male-group __7__attackers.
Then, about ten thousand years ago, when this immensely long formative __8__period of hunting for food, they became farmers. Their improved intelligence,
so vital to their old hunting life, were put to a new use—that of penning, __9__controlling and domesticating their prey. The food was there on the farms,awaiting their needs. The risks and uncertainties of farming were no longer __10__essential for survival.
答案：来源：www.yeeyi.net
1 将viewing改为viewed。非谓语动词view和句子的主语是逻辑动宾关系。
2 将inaccurate改为accurate。如果真的目标不准确，也就不可能进球了（he scores a goal）。
3 在enjoys前面加he。由于前面if his aim is accurate and he scores a goal 是条件状语从句，因此可见这里是主句，主句的主语he是不可以省略的。
4 将look up at的up省略
5 将year变为复数
6 将if去掉壹壹英语论坛
7 将co-operate 改为co-operated
8 将when改为after
9将were改为was。该谓语动词的主语是Their improved intelligence，是单数。
10 将farming改为hunting。纵观全文，在从事种植业后，“狩猎”而不是“农耕”的危险和不确定性对人们的生存已经不再那么重要了。

The grammatical wordswhich play so large a part in English grammar are for the most part sharply andobviously different from the lexical words. A rough
and ready difference which may seem the most obvious is thatgrammatical __1__ words have “less meaning”, but in fact some grammarians havecalled them __2__ “empty” words as opposed in the “full” words of vocabulary.But this is a rather __3__ misled way of expressing the distinction. Although aword like the is not the name __4__ of something as man is, it is very far awayfrom being meaningless; there is a __5__ sharp difference in meaning between“man is vile” and “the man is vile”, yet the isthe single vehicle of this difference in meaning. Moreover, grammatical words__6__ differ considerably among themselves as the amount of meaning they haveeven in __7__ the lexical sense. Another name for the grammatical words hasbeen “little words.”
But size is by no mean a good criterion for distinguishing thegrammatical words.” __8__ of English, when we consider that we have lexicalwords as go, man, say, car. __9__ Apart from this, however, there is a gooddeal of truth in what some people say:
we certainly do create a great number of obscurity when we omitthem. This is __10__ illustrated not only in the poetry of Robert Browning butin the prose of telegrams andnewspaper headlines.
答案：
1 删掉the 此处的most并不表示obvious的最高级，而是用作副词修饰obvious，表示程度很高，因此前面不能加the。
2 将but改为and 根据文章的意思，这里要用并列关系的and。
3 将in改为to。 as apposed to 是固定搭配，意思是“与……相比”。
4 将misled改为misleading
5删掉away。 此处考查固定用法。 far from being...意思为“远非”“远远不怎么样”，符合这里的意思。而far away from 表示离某处很远。
6 将single改为only或者sole。这里要表达“唯一的”。
7 在as后面加to或者将as 改为in。联系上下文，此处的意思是“grammatical words 本身在某某方面也有相当的差异，”as to 有“关于”或者“在某某方面的意思”；将as改为in，用differ from something in…也可表达这个意思。
8 将mean改为means来源：壹壹英语
9 将as改为like，或者在as前面加such
10 将number改为deal或者amount。obscurity是不可数名词，不能用anumber of 来修饰。
