2017年改错真题
The ability to communicate is the primary factor that distinguishes human
beings from animals. And it is the ability to communicate well which 1.________
distinguishes one individual from another.
The fact is that apart from the basic necessities, one needs to
be equipped with habits for good communication skills, thus this is 2.________
what will make one a happy and successful social being.
In order to develop these habits, one needs to first acknowledge
the fact that they need to improve communication skills from time to time.
They need to take stock of the way how they interact and the direction 3.________
in which their work and personal relations are going. The only constant
in life is change, the more one accepts one’s strengths and works 4._______
towards dealing with their shortcomings, specially in the area of 5.________
communication skills, the better will be their interactions and
the more their social popularity.
The dominated question that comes here is: How to improve 6.________
communication skills? The answer is simple. One can find
plenty of literature on this. There are also experts, who conduct
workshops and seminars based on communication skills of men
and women. In fact, a large number of companies are bringing in
trainers to regularly make sessions on the subject, in order to 7.________
help their work force maintain better interpersonal work relations.
Today effective communication skills have become a predominant
factor even while recruiting employees. While interviewing candidates,
most interviewers judge them on the basis of the skills they communicate with.
They believe that some skills can be improvised on the job; but ability to 8.________
communicate well is important, as every employee becomes the
representing face of the company.
There are trainers, who specialized in delivering custom-made 9._______
programs on the subject. Through the sessions they not only facilitate
better communication skills in the workplace, but also look into
the problems in the manner of being able to convey messages effectively. 10._______

All social units develop a culture. Even in two-person relationships,
a culture develops in time. In friendship and romantic relationships, 1._________
for example, partners develop their own history, shared experiences,
language patterns, habits, and customs give that relationship a special 2._________
character—a character that differs it in various ways from 3._________


other relationships. Examples might include special dates, places,
songs, or events that come to have a unique and
important symbolic meaning for the two individuals. Thus, any 4._________
social unit—whether a relationship, group, organization, or
society—develops a culture with the passage of time.
While the defining characteristics of each culture are unique,
all cultures share certain same functions. The relationship between 5.__________
communication and culture is a very complex intimate one. 6.__________
Cultures are created through communication; that is, communication is
the means of human interaction, through it cultural characteristics 7.__________
are created and shared. It is not so much that individuals set out to create a culture when they
interact in relationships, groups, organizations, or societies,
but rather than that cultures are a natural by-product of social interaction.8._________
In a sense, cultures are the “residue” of social communication.
Without communication and communication media, it would be impossible to
have and pass along cultural characteristics from one place and time to 9.__________
another. One can say, furthermore, that culture is created, shaped, 10._________
transmitted, and learned through communication.

When I was in my early teens, I was taken to a spectacular show
on ice by the mother of a friend. Looked round at the luxury of the 1. ________
rink, my friend’s mother remarked on the “plush” seats we had been
given. I did not know what she meant, and being proud of my 2.________
vocabulary, I tried to infer its meaning from the context. “Plush”
was clearly intended as a complimentary, a positive evaluation; that 3. ________
much I could tell it from the tone of voice and the context. So I 4. ________
started to use the word. Yes, I replied, they certainly are plush, and
so are the ice rink and the costumes of the skaters, aren’t they? My
friend’s mother was very polite to correct me, but I could tell from her 5. ________
expression that I had not got the word quite right.
Often we can indeed infer from the context what a word roughly
means, and that is in fact the way which we usually acquire both 6. ________
new words and new meanings for familiar words, specially in our 7. ________
own first language. But sometimes we need to ask, as I should have
asked for plush, and this is particularly true in the 8.________
aspect of a foreign language. If you are continually surrounded by 9________
speakers of the language you are learning, you can ask them directly,
but often this opportunity does not exist for the learner of English.
So dictionaries have been developed to mend the gap. 10. _________

There is widespread consensus among scholars that second language
acquisition (SLA) emerged as a distinct field of research from the late 1950s to


early 1960s.
There is a high level of agreement that the following questions 1.__________
have possessed the most attention of researchers in this area: 2.__________
◆Is it possible to acquire an additional language in the
same sense one acquires a first language? 3.__________
◆What is the explanation for the fact adults have 4.__________
more difficulty in acquiring additional languages than children have?
◆What motivates people to acquire additional languages?
◆What is the role of the language teaching in the 5.___________
acquisition of an additional language?
◆What socio-cultural factors, if any, are relevant in studying the
learning of additional languages?
From a check of the literature of the field it is clear that all 6.__________
the approaches adopted to study the phenomena of SLA so far have
one thing in common: The perspective adopted to view the acquiring
of an additional language is that of an individual attempts to do 7.___________
so. Whether one labels it “learning” or “acquiring” an additional
language, it is an individual accomplishment or what is under 8.___________
focus is the cognitive, psychological, and institutional status of an
individual. That is, the spotlight is on what mental capabilities are
involving, what psychological factors play a role in the learning 9.___________
or acquisition, and whether the target language is learnt in the
classroom or acquired through social touch with native speakers. 10.___________
2013年改错真题
Psycho-linguistics is the name given to the study of the psychological processes involv
ed in language. Psycholinguistics study understanding,
production and remembering language, and hence are concerned 1.__________
with listening, reading, speaking, writing, and memory for language.
One reason why we take the language for granted is that it usually 2.__________
happens so effortlessly, and most of time, so accurately. 3.__________
Indeed, when you listen to someone to speaking, or looking at this page, 4.________
you normally cannot help but understand it.
It is only in exceptional circumstances we might become aware of 5._________
the complexity involved: if we are searching for a word but cannot
remember it; if a relative or colleague has had a stroke which has 6._________
influenced their language; if we observe a child acquire language; 7._________
if we try to learn a second language ourselves as an adult; or if we
are visually impaired or hearing-impaired or if we meet anyone else 8._________
who is. As we shall see, all these examples of what might be called
“language in exceptional circumstances” reveal a great deal about the
processes evolved in speaking, listening, writing and reading. But 9.__________
given that language processes were normally so automatic, we also 10.__________
need to carry out careful experiments to get at what is happening.

The central problem of translating has always been whether to
translate literally or freely. The argument has been going since at least 1.__________
the first century B.C. Up to the beginning of the 19th century, many
writers favored certain kind of “free” translation: the spirit, not the 2.__________
letter; the sense not the word; the message rather the form; the matter 3.__________
not the manner. This is the often revolutionary slogan of writers who 4.___________
wanted the truth to be read and understood. Then in the turn of 5.___________
19th century, when the study of cultural anthropology suggested that
the linguistic barriers were insuperable and that the language was 6.__________
entirely the product of culture, the view translation was impossible 7.__________
gained some currency, and with it that, if was attempted at all, it must 8.__________
be as literal as possible. This view culminated the statement of the 9._________
extreme “literalists” Walter Benjamin and Vladimir Nobokov.
The argument was theoretical: the purpose of the translation,
the nature of the readership, the type of the text, was not discussed.
Too often, writer, translator and reader were implicitly identified with each
other. Now, the context has changed, and the basic problem remains. 10. _________

From a very early age, perhaps the age of five or six, I
knew that when I grew I should be a writer. Between the ages 1._____________
of about seventeen and twenty- four I tried to abandon this
idea, but I did so with the conscience that I was outraging my 2._____________
true nature and that soon or later I should have to settle down 3._____________
and write books.
I was the child of three, but there was a gap of
five years on either side, and I barely saw my father 4._____________
before I was eight. For this and other reasons I was somewhat
lonely, and I soon developed disagreeing mannerisms which 5._____________
made me unpopular throughout my schooldays. I had the
lonely child's habit of making up stories and holding
conversations with imaginative persons, and I think from the 6._____________
very start my literal ambitions were mixed up with the feeling 7._____________
of being isolated and undervalued. I knew that I had a facility
with words and a power of facing in unpleasant facts, and I 8._____________
felt that this created a sort of private world which I could get 9._____________
my own back for my failure in everyday life. Therefore, the 10.____________
volume of serious — i.e. seriously intended — writing which
I produced all through my childhood and boyhood would not
amount to half a dozen pages. I wrote my first poem
at the age of four or five, my mother taking it down to dictation.

So far as we can tell, all human languages are equally
complete and perfect as instruments of communication: that is,
every language appears to be well equipped as any other to say 1____________


the things their speakers want to say. 2____________
There may or may not be appropriate to talk about primitive 3_____________people
s or cultures, but that is another matter. Certainly, not all
groups of people are equally competent in nuclear physics or
psychology or the cultivation of rice . Whereas this is not the 4____________
fault of their language. The Eskimos , it is said, can speak about
snow with further more precision and subtlety than we can in 5_____________
English, but this is not because the Eskimo language (one of those
sometimes miscalled 'primitive') is inherently more precise and
subtle than English. This example does not come to light a defect 6____________
in English, a show of unexpected 'primitiveness'. The position is
simply and obviously that the Eskimos and the English live in similar 7___________
environments. The English language will be just as rich in terms 8____________
for different kinds of snow, presumably, if the environments in which
Englishwas habitually used made such distinction as important. 9___________
Similarly, we have no reason to doubt that the Eskimo language
could be as precise and subtle on the subject of motor manufacture
or cricket if these topics formed the part of the Eskimos' life. 10____________For
obvious historical reasons, Englishmen in the nineteenth century
could not talk about motorcars with the minute discrimination
which is possible today: cars were not a part of their culture.
But they had a host of terms for horse-drawn vehicles
which send us, puzzled, to a historical dictionary when we
are reading Scott or Dickens. How many of us could distinguish
between a chaise, a landau, a victoria, a brougham, a coupe, a gig,
a diligence, a whisky, a calash, a tilbury, a carriole, a phaeton, and a clarence?
2009年改错真题
The previous section has shown how quickly a rhyme passes from
one school child to the next and illustrates the further difference 1.__________
between school lore and nursery lore. In nursery lore a verse,learnt in
early childhood, is not usually passed on again when the little listener 2.__________
has grown up, and has children of their own, or even grandchild 3.___________
The period between learning a nursery rhyme and transmitting it may
be something from twenty to seventy the playground lore, 4.__________
therefore, a rhyme may be excitedly passed on within the very hour it is 5._________
learnt; and in the general, it passes between children of the same age, 6.___________
or nearly so, since it is uncommon for the difference in age between
playmates to be more than five years. If, therefore, a playground rhyme
can be shown to have been currently for a hundred years, or even just 7.___________
for fifty, it follows that it has been retransmitted over and over; very 8.___________
possibly it has passed along a chain of two or three hundred young
hearers and tellers, and the wonder is that it remains live after so much 9.__________
handling, to let alone that it bears resemblance to the 10.___________

The desire to use language as a sign of national identity is a
very natural one, and in result language has played a prominent 1.__________
part in national moves. Men have often felt the need to cultivate 2.__________
a given language to show that they are distinctive from another 3.__________
race whose hegemony they resent. At the time the United States 4.__________
split off from Britain, for example, there were proposals that
independence should be linguistically accepted by the use of a 5.__________
different language from those of Britain. There was even one 6.__________
proposal that Americans should adopt Hebrew. Others favoured
the adoption of Greek, though, as one man put it, things would
certainly be simpler for Americans if they stuck on to English 7.__________
and made the British learn Greek. At the end, as everyone 8.__________
knows, the two countries adopted the practical and satisfactory
solution of carrying with the same language as before. 9.__________
Since nearly two hundred years now, they have shown the world 10.__________
that political independence and national identity can be complete
without sacrificing the enormous mutual advantages of a common language.

From what has been said, it must be clear that no one can
make very positive statements about how language originated.
There is no material in any language today and in the earliest 1.__________
records of ancient languages show us language in a new and 2.__________
emerging state. It is often said, of course, that the language 3._________
originated in cries of anger, fear, pain and pleasure, and the 4.__________
necessary evidence is entirely lacking: there are no remote
tribes, no ancient records, providing evidence of
a language with a large proportion of such cries 5.__________
than we find in English. It is true that the absence
of such evidence does not disprove the theory, but in other grounds 6.___________
too the theory is not very attractive.
People of all races and languages make rather similar
noises in return to pain or pleasure. The fact that 7.___________
such noises are similar on the lips of Frenchmen
and Malaysians whose languages are utterly different,
serves to emphasize on the fundamental difference 8.___________
between these noises and language proper. We may
say that the cries of pain or chortles of amusement
are largely reflex actions, instinctive to large extent, 9.____________
whereas language proper does not consist of signs
but of these that have to be learnt and that are wholly conventional. 10.___________

We use language primarily as a means of communication with
other human beings. Each of us shares with the community in which we


live a store of words and meanings as well as agreeing conventions as 1.________
to the way in which words should be arranged to convey a particular 2.________
message: the English speaker has in his disposal vocabulary and a 3._________
set of grammatical rules which enables him to communicate his 4._________
thoughts and feelings, in a variety of styles, to the other English 5._________
speakers. His vocabulary, in particular, both that which he uses actively
and that which he recognises, increases in size as he grows
old as a result of education and experience. 6._________
But, whether the language store is relatively small or large, the system
remains no more than a psychological reality for the individual, unless
he has a means of expressing it in terms able to be seen by another 7._________
member of his linguistic community; he has to give the system a
concrete transmission form. We take it for granted the two most 8.___________
common forms of transmission-by means of sounds produced by our
vocal organs (speech) or by visual signs (writing). And these are 9.___________
among most striking of human achievements. 10.___________

The University as Busines
A number of colleges and universities have announced steep tuition
increases for next year—much steeper than the current, very low rate of
inflation. They say the increases are needed because of a loss in value of
university endowments heavily investing in common stock. I am skeptical. 1._______
A business firm chooses the price that maximizes its net revenues,
irrespective fluctuations in income; and increasingly the outlook of 2._________
universities in the United States is indistinguishable from those of 3._________
business firms. The rise in tuitions may reflect the fact economic 4._________
uncertainty increases the demand for education. The biggest cost of
being in the school is foregoing income from a job (this is primarily a 5._________
factor in graduate and professional-school tuition);
the poor one's job prospects, the more sense it makes to 6.__________
reallocate time from the job market to education,
in order to make oneself more marketable.
The ways which universities make themselves attractive to students7._________
include soft majors, student evaluations of teachers, giving students
a governance role, and eliminate required courses. Sky-high tuitions 8.____________
have caused universities to regard their students as customers. Just as
business firms sometimes collude to shorten the rigors of competition, 9.___________
universities collude to minimize the cost to them of the athletes
whom they recruit in order to stimulate alumni donations, so the best
athletes now often bypass higher education in order to obtain salaries
earlier from professional teams. And until they were stopped by the
antitrust authorities, the Ivy League schools colluded to limit competition
for the best students, by agreeing not to award scholarships on the basis


of merit rather than purely of need—just like business
firms agreeing not to give discounts on their best customer. 10 ___________

One of the most important non-legislative functions of the U.S. Congress
is the power to investigate. The power is usually delegtated to
committees — either stading committees,
special committees set for a specific purpose, 1.___________
or joint committees consisted of members of both houses. 2.___________
Investigations are held to gather information on the need for
Future legislation, to test the effectiveness of laws already passed,
to inquire into the qualification and performance of members and
officials of the other branches, and in rare occasions, to lay the 3.___________
groundwork for impeachment proceedings. Frequently, committees
rely outside experts to assist in conducting investigative hearings 4.___________
and to make out detailed studies of issues. 5.____________
There are important corallaries to the investigative power.
One is the power to publicize investigations and its results. 6.___________
most committee hearings are open to public and are reported 7.___________
widely in the mass media. Congressional investigation
nevertheless represent one important tool available to lawmakes 8.___________
to inform the citizenry and to arouse public interests in national issuses.9.__________
Congressional committees also have the power to compel
testimony from unwilling witnesses, and to cite fro contempt
of Congress witnesses who refuse to testify and for perjury
these who give false testimony. 10.__________

Demographic indicators show that Americans in the postwar
period were more eager than ever to establish families. They quickly
brought down the age at marriage for both men and women and brought
the birth rate to a twentieth century height after more than a hundred 1.________
years of a steady decline, producing the “baby boom.” These young 2.________
adults established a trend of early marriage and relatively large
families that went for more than two decades and caused a major 3.___________but tem
porary reversal of long- term demographic patterns. From
the 1940s through the early 1960s, Americans married at a high rate 4.__________ and at
a younger age than their Europe counterparts. 5.__________
Less noted but equally more significant, the men and women who 6._________
formed families between 1940 and 1960 nevertheless reduced the 7._________
divorce rate after a postwar peak; their marriages remained intact to
a greater extent than did that of couples who married in earlier as well 8.__________as late
r decades. Since the United States maintained its dubious 9.__________
distinction of having the highest divorce rate in the world, the
temporary decline in divorce did not occur in the same extent in 10._________
Europe. Contrary to fears of the experts, the role of


breadwinner and homemaker was not abandoned.

There are great impediments to the general use of a standard
in pronunciation comparable to that existing in spelling
(orthography). One is the fact that pronunciation is learnt
“naturally” and unconsciously, and orthography is learnt 1.____________
deliberately and consciously. Large numbers of us, in fact,
remain throughout our lives quite unconscious with what 2.____________
our speech sounds like when we speak out, and it often 3.____________
comes as a shock when we firstly hear a recording of ourselves. 4.____________
It is not a voice we recognize at once, whereas our own handwriting
is something which we almost always know. We begin the “natural” 5.___________
learning of pronunciation long before we start learning to read or
write, and in our early years we went on unconsciously imitating and 6.___________
practicing the pronunciation of those around us for many more hours
per every day than we ever have to spend learning even our difficult 7.__________
English spelling. This is “natural” therefore, that our speech- sounds 8.__________
should be those of our immediate circle; after all, as we have seen,
speech operates as a means of holding a community and 9.__________
giving a sense of “belonging”. We learn quite early to recognize a
“stranger”, someone who speaks with an accent of a different
Community—perhaps only a few miles far. 10.__________

During the early years of this century, wheat was seen as the very
lifeblood of Western Canada. People on city streets watched the yields
and the price of wheat in almost as much feeling as if they were growers. 1.________
The marketing of wheat became an increasing favorite topic of conversation.2.______
War set the stage for the most dramatic events in marketing the
western crop. For years, farmers mistrusted speculative grain selling
as carried on through the Winnipeg Grain Exchange. Wheat prices
were generally low in the autumn, so farmers could not wait for 3.____________
markets to improve. It had happened too often that they sold their wheat
soon shortly after harvest when farm debts were coming due, 4.____________
just to see prices rising and speculators getting rich. On various occasions,5.________
producer groups, asked firmer control, but the government had no wish to 6.________
become involving, at least not until wartime when wheat prices threatened7.________
to run wild.
Anxious to check inflation and rising life costs, the federal 8.___________
government appointed a board of grain supervisors to deal with deliveries
from the crops of 1917 and 1918. Grain Exchange trading was suspended,
and farmers sold at prices fixed by the board. To handle with the crop of 9._________
1919, the government appointed the first Canadian Wheat Board,
with total authority to buy, sell, and set prices. 10.___________

The grammatical words which play so large a part in English
grammar are for the most part sharply and obviously different
from the lexical words. A rough and ready difference which may
seem the most obvious is that grammatical words have“ less 1.___________
meaning”, but in fact some grammarians have called them 2.___________
“empty” words as opposed in the “full” words of vocabulary. 3.__________
But this is a rather misled way of expressing the distinction. 4.__________
Although a word like the is not the name of something as man is,
it is very far away from being meaningless; there is a sharp 5.__________
difference in meaning between “man is vile and” “the man is
vile”, yet the is the single vehicle of this difference in meaning. 6.___________
Moreover, grammatical words differ considerably among
themselves as the amount of meaning they have, even in the 7.___________
lexical sense. Another name for the grammatical words has been
“little words”. But size is by no mean a good criterion for 8.___________
distinguishing the grammatical words of English, when we
consider that we have lexical words as go, man, say, car. Apart 9.___________
from this, however, there is a good deal of truth in what some
people say: we certainly do create a great number of obscurity 10.__________
when we omit them. This is illustrated not only in the poetry of
Robert Browning but in the prose of telegrams and newspaper headlines.

The hunter-gatherer tribes that today live as our prehistoric 1.____________
human ancestors consume primarily a vegetable diet supplementing 2.____________
with animal foods. An analysis of 58 societies of modem hunter-gatherers,
including the Kung of southern Africa, revealed that one
half emphasize gathering plant foods, one-third concentrate on
fishing and only one-sixth are primarily hunters. Overall, two-thirds
and more of the hunter-gatherer’s calories come from plants. Detailed 3.__________
studies of the Kung by the food scientists at the University of
London, showed that gathering is a more productive source of food
than is hunting. An hour of hunting yields in average about 100 4.___________
edible calories, as an hour of gathering produces 240. 5.__________
Plant foods provide for 60 percent to 80 percent of the Kung 6.___________
diet, and no one goes hungry when the hunt fails. Interestingly, if
they escape fatal infections or accidents, these contemporary
aborigines live to old ages despite of the absence of medical care. 7.___________
They experience no obesity, no middle-aged spread, little dental
decay, no high blood pressure, on heart disease, and their blood
cholesterol levels are very low( about half of the average 8.__________
American adult), if no one is suggesting what we return to 9.___________
an aboriginal life style, we certainly could use their eating habits
as a model for healthier diet.

When a human infant is born into any community in any part
of the world it has two things in common with any infant, provided 1.____________
neither of them have been damaged in any way either before 2.___________
or during birth. Firstly, and most obviously, new born children
are completely helpless. Apart from a powerful capacity to
pay attention to their helplessness by using sound, there is nothing 3.___________
the new born child can do to ensure his own survival. Without
care from some other human being or beings, be it mother,
grandmother, or human group, a child is very unlikely to survive.
This helplessness of human infants is in marked contrast with
the capacity of many new born animals to get on their feet 4.___________
within minutes of birth and run with the herd within a few
hours. Although young animals are certainly in risk, sometimes 5.___________
for weeks or even months after birth, compared with the human
infant they very quickly develop the capacity to fend for them. 6.__________
It is during this very long period in which the human infant
is totally dependent on the others that it reveals the second feature 7.__________
which it shares with all other undamaged human infants, a
capacity to learn language. For this reason, biologists now suggest
that language be 8.__________
to say, they consider the human infant to be genetic programmed 9._________
in such way that it can acquire language. This suggestion implies 10.__________
that just as human beings are designed to see three-dimensionally and in colour, and
just as they are designed to stand upright rather than to move on all fours, so they are designe
d to learn and use language as part of their normal developments as well-formed human bein

The second most important constituent of the biosphere is liquid water. This can only ex

earth during volcanic action. The total quantity of water is not known,

melted. Of the remaining fraction, which is somewhat fewer than 10.___________
1% of the whole, there is 10—20 times as much stored as underground water as is actually o

句就来解释这个动作发生的情景,即主客谈了许久后,主人有个约会,必须离开 去赴
约。这里要表示一种主动愿望“必须,不得不”的意思,而不是能力。所以应将can
改为 must。
2.答案:not∧→to。
【详细解答】本题属动词不定式否定形式的误用。one?s desire to do sth.为固定搭配,


意 为“去做……的欲望,想去做……”,其否定形式是在to前面加not,即one?
s desire not to do sth.意为“不愿去做……”。

【详细解答】根据上下文,本句的前后两 部分之间是转折关系。而therefore意为“因
此”,表示因果关系,因此应改用转折连词but 。
6.答案:raise→rise。【详细解答】raise为及物动词,意为“使升高,提升; 抚养,养
育”,其后必须接宾语。而本句中的动词raise后无宾语,所以应改为rise。rise 为不及
物动词,意为“起身”。
7.答案:as∧→if或though
【详 细解答】本句意为“身体向前,抓住椅子的扶手,就好像要把自己支撑起来一样”。
而连词as不能表达 “仿佛,好像”的意思,只有把它改成as if/though才合乎题意。
8.答案:make→perform或do 【详细解答】文中要表达的意思是“他将首先做出的动
作。”只有perform/do an action表示“做动作”,而没有make an act这一表达方式。
9.答案:the→a 【详细解答】定冠词the表特指,不定冠词a/an表泛指。这里是说“如< br>果他不迟疑,动作只会花不到一秒的时间”,是泛指任何一秒,而不是特指某一秒,所
以应该用不 定冠词。
10.答案:post→posture【详细解答】post意为“柱杆;邮件;职位, 岗位”等;posture
