If some company is making money that, that is 10 American way.“(分数:25.00)解析:inon解析 介词误用。表示
30、“把印在胶卷上”时用介词 on。解析:thatwhen解析 从句引导词错误。这里 week后面是定语从句,引导词在从句中作时间状语,因此应该使用 when,而不能使用 that。解析:catchingcaught解析 非谓语动词误用。the traffic violations 与 catch之间是动宾关系,应该使用过去分词表被动。解析:infrom解析 固定搭配中的介词误用。deter sb. from doing sth. 表示“阻止某人做某事”,为固定表达,不能使用介词 in,本句的意思是“警察部门称,自动摄像头阻止了人们超速和闯红灯”。解析:butand解析 连词误用。上句说“至少七个
31、州已经禁止安装这些设备”,下句说“反对者争辩说摄像头触犯隐私且把利润置于公共安全之上”。由此可见,这两个句子都是在说反对者的观点,因此是并列关系,而不是转折关系。解析:arguesargue解析 主谓不一致。此句的主语是 opponents,两个破折号中间的内容都是插入语,所以谓语使用复数形式。解析:第三个 the the 解析 冠词冗余。in place 是固定搭配,表示“在适合的或通常的位置上”,无需使用定冠词 the。解析:maximalminimal解析 语义错误。此句的含义是“几乎所有的监视服务从安装到辨认交通违规行为都是由私人公司提供的。”因此可以判断,这样做会将警察的监督角色降至
32、最小,而不是最大,因此应该使用 minimal。解析:manymuch解析 形容词误用。这句话说“每给司机开出一张罚单,提供监视服务的公司便可获得多达 70美元的酬劳”,形容钱的时候应该使用 much,而不能使用修饰可数名词的 many。解析:moneyoff/from解析 介词缺失。make money off/from.意为“从中赚钱,通过来赚钱”。文章结尾处使用了讽刺手法,说“如果有任何公司从中赚钱的话,那就是美国道路”,即Terrance Gainer认为监视系统是可靠的。The aim of a job interview is to establish whether you ar

38、didates for how well 20 they fit the job specification.(分数:25.00)解析:technologicaltechnical解析 形近词误用。technological 表“科技的,工程的”,而technical则可指“(某工作或专业需要的)技能的”,此处指“工作必需的技能”,故应使用technical。解析:ato解析 介词缺失。句中的 a new work environment和 new ways of working并列充当adapt to的宾语,介词 to在此不能省略。解析:affectaffecting 或affectthat
39、/which解析 动词形式错误或从句引导词缺失。这句话已经有了谓语动词 are,所以动词 affect应使用现在分词 affecting作后置定语,修饰前面的 other personal skills;还可以在 affect前面加上引导词 that或者 which,以定语从句的形式修饰 other personal skills。解析:orand解析 连词误用。全方位的交际能力应该包括 oral和 written两部分,而不是其中之一,所以应使用连词 and。解析:recognizeit解析 代词缺失。宾语从句中的谓语动词 recognize为及物动词,其后应该接宾语,it 在此处指代前文中
40、的 what they are looking for。解析:and and 解析 固定搭配错误。one another 为固定搭配,意思是“互相,彼此”。解析:correctright解析 近义词误用。当 right和 correct都表示“对的,正确的,准确的”时,可以互换,但此处 right要表达的意思应该是“适宜的,合适的”,所以不可以与 correct换用。解析:nonot解析 副词误用。此处需要副词修饰 effective,no 一般修饰名词,而 not则可修饰形容词。解析:listinglisted解析 非谓语动词误用。the qualities 与 list是逻辑上的动宾关系,
41、所以这里应使用 list的过去分词形式,表示被动。同时还可以理解为 which/that are listed这样一个定语从句的省略形式。解析:foragainst解析 介词误用。score.against.是固定搭配,意思是“根据打分(评判)”。The destruction of our natural resources and contamination of our food supply continue to occur, largely because of the extreme difficulty in affixing legal responsibility on t

47、s. 30 We must express our views clearly to prevent media distortion and public confusion.(分数:25.00)解析:thesethose解析 定语从句先行词误用。此处的代词指代 people,而且后面有 who引导的定语从句,因此只能使用 those,these 不能作先行词。解析:hashave解析 主谓不一致。此处主语与谓语距离较远,中间含有不定式成分作主语的后置定语,主语 attempts是复数,因此谓语需要使用复数形式。解析:whichthat解析 It句型错误。这里是 It seems that固
48、定句型,意思是“似乎,看起来好像”,不能使用 which或者其他关系代词。解析:thereis解析 倒装句错误。此处 that从句后面是一个 only位于句首的条件复合句,当only位于句首时,主句需要部分倒装,即将助动词、系动词或情态动词提前。本句中主句部分是 there be句型,但缺少了 be动词,且 initiative为单数名词,因此 there前面应加上 is。解析:industryindustry“s解析 名词所有格误用。本句是一个含有同位语从句的问句,recognition前面的定语有两个,一个是 our,另一个则应是 industry的所有格形式 industry“s。解析:
49、Aslf解析 连词误用。从句说“如果要找一个环境健康专业人士挺身而出并带头解决环境问题的最佳时机的话”,主句说“这个时机就是现在”,可见主从句是条件关系,而不是因果关系。解析:tooktake解析 虚拟语气错误。此句中 demand表示“要求”,后面的宾语从句需要使用虚拟语气,从句谓语动词应该用“should+动词原形”,should 可以省略,因此 took应改为 take。解析:to to 解析 介词冗余。promote 在此是及物动词,意为“促进,增进”,无需介词 to。解析:whomwho/that解析 强调句型错误。此处是强调句型,强调的成分是句子的主语 those of us,后面紧跟的是一个 who引导的定语从句,I submit 是插人语,之后又是一个修饰 those of us的定语从句,因此使用 who或 that,因为 whom在宾语从句中只能作宾语。解析:infrom解析 介词误用。perspective 常和 from连用,表示“从的角度”,此句意为“我们必须全面看待这个问题,以做出客观的决定。”With the effects
