44、答案】 C 【试题解析】 A中 and之前无介词短语， and之后是 with短语，导致 with短语找不到并列对象； B中：两个分句用 and连接构成平行结构，但 had been所显示的时态是不对的； D中：把划线部分代入原句， proved不知作何成分，谓语是demonstrated，而 proved作为过去分词修饰 horse又理解不通； E中有两个错误： (1)划线部分本是与前面部分属于同等重要的部分，而在这 里却属于从属位置。 (2)with引入的独立结构与主句之间应用逗号隔开，且不必用现在分词完成体的被动态，用过去分词即可。 C是一个省略结构， horse之后省了一个 was，也

45、就是说，两个分句用 and连接，后者省去了与前者相同的部分 was。 【知识模块】 语法改错 2 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 根据指代原则， their指代是错误的，排除 A、 D。本题句意是 “are A， not B”结构，即 “是 A不是 B”，因此 E中的 and是不必要的； B不对，因为按前后形式一致原则补全后，应是 for gauging sth， not for gauging others而 B中仅补出了 for，却省略了 gauging，这是不完整的； C对，是因为 for gauging是相同的，就一次性将两个词都省略。 【知识模块】 语法改错 3 【正确答案】 B 【

46、试题解析】 由于 thinner和 more complex的对应，表明了 circuit之后省了与前半句相同的 havebecome，因此 C、 D错； D、 E中： their从句法上讲优先指代lines而不是 lines修饰语中的 chips，属指代不清； A、 C、 E中的 both the power of the chips and the electronic device they drive这种表达很容易让人认为是 the power of the chips和 the electronic device they drive两者之间的并列，这样并列不仅不合逻辑，且原句显然也

47、不是此意，而是 the power of both the chips and the devices， B表明了此意，并把 have换为 has，主谓一致。 【知识模块】 语法改错 4 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 A、 B、 C都错在 which从句与其先行词 psychological disturbances被其他成分分隔，使用 which会导致此非限定性从句的修饰对象不清，从而产生歧义； D中用 an effect清楚指代 psychological disturbances， that从句对此效应进行了补充解释。 【知识模块】 语法改错 5 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 本句是

48、主语同位语，要求同位语与主语指同一对象， A、 B、 C中同位语 “动物 ”与主语 body不一致； E中： have与 the cheetah主谓不一致。 【知识模块】 语法改错 6 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 本句逗号之后的部分，是对 Mars的补充解释， known for being，known as being中的 being均为多余，应改为 known to do sth。而 D中： that is属多余，选 A。 【知识模块】 语法改错 7 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 本句是主语同位语。 A、 C、 D的句子主语均为物，而句首未划线的同位语为 “人 ”，两者不一致，排除

49、A、 C、 D； E中把时间状语夹在谓语和 宾语之间，造成语序混乱，会造成歧义； B中：用逗号将时间状语分隔开来，是最佳选择。 【知识模块】 语法改错 8 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 本句是主语同位语。 A、 C的表达冗长且累赘； D中， has been时态不对，表达同样不简洁； E中 being多余。 【知识模块】 语法改错 9 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 本句逗号之后是对 Unit I nuclear power plant的补充解释， D最简洁：用两个最简单的名词词组并列。其余选项用动词不定式修饰不恰当，或用平行结构不成 立。 【知识模块】 语法改错 10 【正确答案】 E 【试题解析】 A、 B、 C中的 that从句限定 overtime，逻辑上不通； D： potential作名词时，之后一般用动词不定式修饰。而且 potential的使用改变了原意，由 “潜在地 ”改为 “潜力 ”，显然错；在 E中： a practice指代前面 that从句的整个内容。此处用 that、 which等都无法指代前面的整个句子；而 E选项，通过 a practice的过渡，达到了指代前面整个句子的目的。 【知识模块】 语法改错 11 【正确答 案】 B 【试题解析】 A选项中划线部分之前没有 and，表明划线部分的 that从句是定语从句，但
