参考答案：

1．going∧since－加入on

题解：

goon的意思是“继续”，符合句子表达的含义“争论一直在继续”。

2．certain－改为acertain

题解：

此处要表达的意思是“很多作家喜欢一种自由的翻译方法”，第一次出现这种方法应该加上不定冠词。

3．rather－改为not

题解：

根据原句的句子结构，rather应改为not。

4．is－改为was

题解：

此句应该为过去时。

5．in－改为at

题解：

attheturnof19thcentury“十九世纪之初”，是固定搭配。

6．the－删去第二个the

题解：

这里并没有特指某种语言，所以不用定冠词。

7．view∧translation－加入that

题解：

在view和translation之间加上that，可将“translationwasimpossible”看成view的同位语。

8．was－删去was

题解：

条件状语从句常可以省略主语和系动词。

9．culminated∧the－加入in

题解：

culminatein是“以......告终”的意思，符合上下文含义。

10．and－改为but

题解：

根据原句意思“现在背景变化了，但是基本问题依然存在”，两句话之间应该是转折关系

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，soonerorlater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。

disagreeablemannernisms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。
