專八改錯(cuò)練習(xí)第十一篇:

In department stores and closets all over the world,they are
waiting. Their outward appearance seems ratherappealing since __1__
they come in a variety of styles, textures, and colors.
And they are ultimately the biggest deception thatexists in the __2__
fashionable industry today. What are they? They arehigh heels __3__
--woman’s worst enemy ( whether she knows it or not). High heel __4__
shoes are the downfall of modern society. Fashion myths have led
women to believe that they are more beautiful or sophisticating __5__
for wearing heels, but in reality, heels succeed on posing short as __6__
as well as long term hardships. Women should fight the high hell
industry by refusing to use or purchase them in order to save the
world of unnecessary physical and psychological suffering. __7__
For the sake of fairness, it must be noted that there is a positive
side to high heels. First, heels are excellent for aerating lawns.

about. A simple trip around the yard on a pair of those babies __9__
eliminates all needs to call for a lawn care specialist, and provides __10__
the perfect-sized holes to give any lawn oxygen without all those

參考答案(反白可見):
改為because或者for
當(dāng)since表示原因時(shí),它往往出現(xiàn)在句子的開頭而非中間。
2.And改為But
從與上一段的關(guān)系看來,這里是轉(zhuǎn)折而不是承接。
nable改為fashion
fashionable是形容詞表示“時(shí)尚的,時(shí)髦的”,而這里所指的是“時(shí)尚產(chǎn)業(yè)”,所以應(yīng)該用它的名詞形式。
前加上a或者woman改為women
可數(shù)名詞單數(shù)形式前面必須加冠詞,因此這里須加上a,或者將woman變成服侍形式表類指。
ticating改為sophisticated
改為in
succeed 與介詞in連用,后面加動(dòng)詞ing形式。如:
We have already succeeded in working out ground rules with the Department ofDefense.
改為from
save sb from doing sth 表示“避免某人做某事”。
改為knows
主語和謂語在形式上須一致,anyone在語義上表達(dá)的是單數(shù)含義。
改為in
英語表示穿戴往往用介詞in。
改為need
盡管need前用了all來限定,但need所指的是“叫來草坪護(hù)理專家”這單一的含義,因此應(yīng)該用單數(shù),all在這里只是起到強(qiáng)調(diào)的作用?
