countries.

参考答案（反白可见）:

1将in改为for;forquiteawhile作“相当长时间”讲.

2将seventh改为seven

3将were改为was

这个谓语动词的主语是单数短语oneineverysevendeaths,因此要使用单数.

4将now改为then

5将Europe前的the去掉

6将imported改为exported

根据上下文,应该是向穷国出口抗生素,而不是从这些国家进口抗生素.

7将are改为were

8在vanished前加had

这里要表达的是“结核病原来消失的地方,又爆发了结核病”,所以要使用过去完成时.

9将better改为worse

在结合病没有消失的地方,这种病更加严重了,因此要用worse.

10将constantly改为constant

在“keepsb/sthadj”结构中的形容词作补语.

参考答案（反白可见）:

1改export为exports

export作可数名词时指出口商品,同时根据oneof结构也可以知道这里export要用复数结构

2改playing为played

动词play和句子主语Americanpopularmusic是逻辑动宾关系,必须用被动语态.

3改Because为Though或者Although

此句为让步状语从句

4改suburban为rural

这里属于词义用错,suburban为城市郊区,乡村音乐显然来自乡村地区.

5改为becauseof

6改depicted为depicts

本句错在时态.句意为“blues大多抒发哀伤情感,反映美国黑人的艰难生活.”为与全文主导时态一致,不能用过去时.此外,blues现在的风格依旧,故用现在时

7将not去掉

8改is为was

此句有过去时间状语inthe1950’s,陈述过去的一个事实,故用一般过去时态

9改sing为sung

sung引导过去分词短语作宾语补足语,表被动意思

10改coincide为differ（在may后加not也可以）

此句含有连词but,整个句意含有转折语气

参考答案及解析（反白可见）:

1.把frightened改为frightening

frightened是“受到惊吓的”，表明心理状态，而frightening表示“令人害怕的”，表示事物性质。

2.把appear改为disappear

“当你住在摩天大厦的三十层里”，可以推测这里要表达的是归属感的消失，而不是产生归属感。

3.把Strange改为Strangely

Strangelyenough，是固定短语，经常用作插入语，意思是“说也奇怪，最奇怪的是”。

4.在say前面加上don’t

此处说的是，现在住在同一层楼的人甚至见面都不打招呼。

5.把keep改为keeps

inthat引导的句子主语应该是asense，故谓语应为单数。

本句的意思是，农村生活与这种隔绝孤立的生活不同，因为一种归属感把小村里的居民联系在一起。

6.把so改为but/yet

上文提到了乡村生活的好处，下文是转折，要用but或者yet。

7.把for改为on

“去远征”应该用goonaexpedition，而gofor的意思是“去找，努力获取，拥护”。

8.把peaceful改为peace

of后面不应该用形容词，所以应该改为peace。

这里需要注意的是quiet既是名词又是形容词，不要被迷惑。

9.把their改为its

此处的代词应该指代上文的thecity。

10.删除leaving后面的for，或者把for改为from

leave表示“离开某地”，而leavefor表示“离开某地去另外一

andover-expenditure.

参考答案及解析（反白可见）:

1将and改为or

or表示“或者”，因为前后是两种截然不同的可能性，所以应该用or。

2将most改为more

3将few改为little

4将involve改为involves

因为主语thematter为单数，例如：

Althoughplanninginvolvesmaterialinvestment,evenmoreimportantistheinvestmentinman.

虽然作机会应该包括物资投资，但最重要的是对人的投资。

5在returning后加介词to

6将suffer改为afford

7去掉be。

vary是动词，可与助动词或者情态动词构成谓语，也可以独立构成谓语，例如：

Theweathervariesfromhourtohourinsomemountaindistricts.

8去掉the

inessence是固定习语，意为“本质上，实质的"

9将do改为does

主语是动名词复合结构anationplanningitsresourcesandneeds,应视为单数，例如：

Lookingafterchildrenrequirespatience.

10将improperly改为properly.

fromsomecommonlanguage.

参考答案及解析（反白可见）：

1.将by改为in

（be）buriedin意思为“被…所掩盖,掩蔽于…”

2.将such去掉

在这里as是连词,引导状语从句.

3.将第一个and改为to（这个句子长,小心上当呀）

以便和前文的from构成搭配“from…to…”,表示“从……到……”.

4.将writing改为written`

“有文字记载的历史”英语为“writtenhistory”.

5.将Since改为For

因为since做介词,表示“自从……起”之意时,后面一般不跟表示一段时间的名词.

6.将difference改为similarity

从后面的例子我们可以看出,作者在这里讲述的是文字的惊人的相同之处,而不是不同之处.

7.将likely改为alike

likely意思为“很可能的”,不做“相同的,相似的”解.

8.将where改为why

这里不是问地点而是问原因,从后面的because也可以看出.

9.将close改为副词closely

因为形容词close不能修饰过去分词related.

10.将18改为18th.

Themoresobecause“father”wasbutoneofahostofsuchcoincidences.

这句话的themoresobecause是什么意思呢,以为人家出版社错了,不过看两本资料都这么写.有谁看得懂么?

还是说真的是出错了.

原来themoresobecause意思为:

更何况.
