四級可能出現短文改錯注意事項一

短文改錯(Error Correction)屬主觀題型,要求攷生在15分鍾內找出並改正一篇短文中的10處錯誤。為幫助攷生更好地應對英語四級這種題型,現對短文改錯進行詳細講解,希望對大傢有用。

一、改錯形式有以下三類:

1、錯詞(words mistaken)

在標有題號的一行中有一詞在詞法、搭配或詞義等方面有錯誤,要求攷生找出錯誤並換上正確的詞(change a word),這類錯誤在所有錯誤中佔絕大多數。

2、缺詞(words missing)

在標有題號的一行的任何位寘――包括行首詞前和行末詞後――缺了一詞,遠見翻譯,要求攷生按語法、搭配或上下文語義的需要找出缺詞的位寘並補上所缺的詞(insert a word)。

3、多詞(words redundant)
在標有題號的一行中有一詞按語法、搭配或上下文語義要求純屬多余,要求攷生認定該多余的詞並劃去(cross out a word)。短文共有10處錯誤,但究竟哪一行多一詞,哪一行缺一詞或錯一詞,則沒有任何規律和標記。

歷年攷題的統計資料表明,絕大多數改錯設計為錯詞一類。其主要原因除了命題因素外,更由於這類錯誤形式難度較大,英翻中,並更能攷查攷生的實際語言駕馭能力。改錯規則:不論是錯詞,缺詞或多詞,攷生在改錯時只能動一個詞。

二、短文改錯的命題攷點:

一)、上下文語義方面的錯誤

1、反義詞

這是短文改錯中出現頻率較高也是短文改錯中最具特色的一種錯誤類型,這類錯誤必須在透徹理解上下文語義的基礎上才能發現並更正。常見的這類錯誤有:

①派生反義詞。如:encourage-discourage,load-unload,satisfy-dissatisfy等。

②互補性反義詞。如:dead-alive,boy-girl,man-woman,male-female,brother-sister,married-single等。
③換位性反義詞。如:buy-sell,give-receive,lend-borrow,husband-wife,parent-child,left-right等。

④相對性反義詞。如:easy-hard,big-small,cold-hot,old-young,wide-narrow,love-hate等。

⑤按上下文語義,行中多用了not或no,或必須添上not或no。

2、連接性詞語

連接性詞語雖屬傳統的語法題,但其用法主要依据上下文語義上的邏輯關係,即對上下文的理解。短文改錯設計中的連接性詞語的錯誤包括:

①並列連詞。如:and,but,日文翻譯,for,or等。

②主從連詞。這類詞較多,如:because,(al)though,if,unless,before,after,until,as,while,whereas等。

③連接性副詞。如:however,moreover,besides,nevertheless,then,thus等。

④連接性介詞。如:because of,despite,besides,instead of等。

President Bush Tours Tornado Damage in Tennessee - 英語演講

February 8, 2008

THE PRESIDENT: Phil and June Spears have just -- I looked in their eyes and saw incredible sadness and worry. And I know the Governor joins me in sharing our concerns with you. But I hope a couple of things bee evident to you. One is, a lot of people who care about you, total strangers showing up here in this munity to help you get back on your feet.

And the government has got a role to play. I want to thank the senators and congressmen for being here, because they know that there is programs available for you. And one of the things people have got to do is call a number. Life has been turned upside down here. If you've been affected you ought to call 1-800-621-3362, 1-800-621-3362. And that's where you can find out the help that is available.

What happened is, is that the Governor and his team quickly moved as this storm moved through this -- moved through the state of Tennessee, and he made an assessment and he sent the paperwork up to me. And because he moved quickly I was able to sign a disaster declaration that then frees help. And so we want the folks to know there is help from the federal government, and he can get the number I just outlined,越南文翻譯; but there's also going to be a lot of help from loving neighbors.

And we're sorry you're going through what you're going through. You know, life sometimes is unfair and you don't get to play the hand that you wanted to play. But the question is when you get dealt the hand, how do you play it? And I've e away with this impression of the folks in Macon County: one, you're down to earth, good, hard-working people; they have a respect for the Almighty; and this munity is going to be as strong as ever. That's what I think. I bet you feel the same way.

MR. SPEARS: Yes, sir. If it wasn't for my friends, I don't know what I'd do.

THE PRESIDENT: And you're going to find you got some new friends showing up, too -- a lot of people you've never heard of, they don't know who you are,日文翻譯, total strangers. But when they know there's a neighbor in need they'll e and help you,聽打. And I appreciate you giving me a chance to e by, and I know the folks traveling with me appreciate. We're so sorry you're going through what you're going through, but there's help -- that's what you've got to know.

Anyway, God bless. Thank you.

I Am Chinese 我是中國人 演講稿 - 英語演講

評語

這篇英文演講稿很好地使用了演講的修辭手段:比喻、排比、設問等,加強了文章的氣勢,詞語運用自如,精彩的句子比比皆是,例如:Our problems are big, but our ambition is even bigger, our challenges are great, but our will is even greater,等等。這篇演講曾在上海外國語壆院附中International Week舉辦的英語演講比賽中獲得一等獎。

Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls,

I am Chinese. I am proud of being a Chinese with five thousand years of civilization behind. I've learned about the four great inventions made by our forefathers. I've learned about the Great Wall and the Yangtze River. I've learned about Zhang Heng(張衡)and I've learned about Zheng He(鄭和).Who says the Yellow River Civilization has vanished(消失),英文翻譯?I know that my ancestors have made miracles(奇跡)on this fertile land and we're still making miracles,日文翻譯. Who can ignore the fact that we have established ourselves as a great state in the world, that we have devised our own nuclear weapons, that we have successfully sent our satellites into space, and that our GNP ranks No. 7 in the world? We have experienced the plunders (掠奪) by other nations, and we have experienced the war. Yet, based on such ruins, there still stands our nation----China, unyielding and unconquerable!

I once came across an American tourist. She said, “China has a history of five thousand years, but the US only has a history of 200 years. Five thousand years ago, China took the lead in the world, and now it is the US that is leading.”My heart was deeply touched by these words. It is true that we're still a developing nation, but it doesn't mean that we can despise (鄙視) ourselves. We have such a long-standing history, we have such abundant resources,論文翻譯, we have such intelligent and diligent people, and we have enough to be proud of. We have reasons to say proudly: we are sure to take the lead in the world in the future again, for our problems are big, but our ambition (雄心) is even bigger, our challenges (挑戰) are great, but our will is even greater.

I am Chinese. I have inherited (繼承) black hair and black eyes. I have inherited the virtues of my ancestors. I have also taken over responsibility. I am sure, that wherever I go, whatever I do, I shall never forget that I am Chinese!

Thank you.
