2、food is converted into energy, which in turn is used to【 S2】 _ seek more food to grow, to reproduce and to survive. In this cycle all life【 S3】 _ depends. It is fairly well known that wild animals survive from year to year by eating as many as they can during times of plenty, the summer and fall,【 S

3、4】 _ storing the excess, usually in the form of fat, and then using these reserves of fat to survive during the hard time in winter when food is scarce. But it is【 S5】_ probably less well known that even with their stored fat, wild animals spend less energy to live in winter than in summer. A good c

4、ase in point is white-【 S6】_ tailed deer. Like most wildlife, deer reproduce, grow and store fat in the summer and fall when there is plenty of nutritious food available.

5、the end of May and first【 S8】_ part of June, must search for food for the necessary energy not only to meet her bodys needs but also to reproduce milk for her fawns. The best milk【 S9】 _ production occurs at the same time that new plant growth is available. This is good timing, because milk producti

The cost can be met unless the region has ample food【 S10】_ resources. 1 【 S1】 2 【 S2】 3 【 S3】 4 【 S4】 5 【 S5】 6 【 S6】 7 【 S7】 8 【 S8】 9 【 S9】 10 【 S10】 10 Until recently, most population growth has occurred in relatively dense urban envir

7、onments. In another words, even if we were witnessing rapid【 S1】 _ population growth, that would not mean that the countryside was filled with【 S2】_ people. However, the urban areas would tend to become crowded.【 S3】 _ Historically, we find that people have moved to there the jobs were. Jobs【 S4】 _

8、were usually in ports or locations with many natural resources. After transportation became relatively cheap, geographical locations became【 S5】 _ channels of economic activity. One factor that determines where people will move to, even when transportation becomes cheap, is income. And individuals w

9、orking in cities earn higher incomes than those working in rural areas. Hence, population has tended until the 1970s to decrease in our major【 S6】_ urban centers. Recently, population has shifted out of the Northeast to the South and to the West. The South and the West have more pleasant climates. I

10、f people did【 S7】_ not benefit from living in large cities, there would likely be a much more even population distribution throughout our entire land area. Probably if this is the case, there would be less concern in population explosion. Indeed, one need【 S8】_ only arrange a cross-country drive or

11、plane trip to realize sparsely populated【 S9】_ these United States really are. This is not to say that we should or should not do something about population growth. The shortage of people in certain areas merely demonstrates that overpopulation in the US is really only a problem in overcrowded urban

12、 environments. And this problem may be slow【 S10】_ correcting itself. 11 【 S1】 12 【 S2】 13 【 S3】 14 【 S4】 15 【 S5】 16 【 S6】 17 【 S7】 18 【 S8】 19 【 S9】 20 【 S10】 专业英语八级（改错 ）模拟试卷 146答案与解析 一、 PART III LANGUAGE USAGE 【知识模块】 改错 1 【正确答案】 Since-But 【试题解析】 篇章错误，衔接错误。 the truth is that it is energy that make

13、s the world go around与前面两个句子在意义和逻辑上是转折关系，而 since只能引导原因状语从句或者时间状语从句。 【知识模块】 改错 2 【正确答案】 even-only 【试题解析】 词法错误，词义 混淆。用 only强调条件 when food is converted into energy，表示 “只有当食物转化为能量时 ”，而 even没有这个意思。 【知识模块】 改错 3 【正确答案】 In一 On 【试题解析】 词法错误，介词误用。此处实际上考查的是短语 depend on，为了强调状语，把 on this cycle放在了句首，正常的语序应该是 “All

14、life depends on this circle ” 【知识模块】 改错 4 【正确答案】 many much 【试 题解析】 词法错误，代词误用。这里指代的是不可数名词 food，应该用much修饰。 【知识模块】 改错 5 【正确答案】 time times 【试题解析】 词法错误，名词数的误用。根据上下文的语境，此处 time意为 “某一时期，时代 ”，一般用复数形式 times。 【知识模块】 改错 6 【正确答案】 is 一 the 【试题解析】 词法错误，冠词缺失。这句话是说：一个恰当的例子就是白尾鹿。这里表示特指，所以 white-tailed deer前面应该加定冠词 t

15、he。 【知识 模块】 改错 7 【正确答案】 the一去掉 the 【试题解析】 词法错误，冠词冗余。 in good condition为固定短语， good前面没有冠词，表示 “情况良好，状态良好 ”。 【知识模块】 改错 8 【正确答案】 was一去掉 was 【试题解析】 句法错误，语态错误。句子的主语是怀孕的成年母鹿，与 give birth to是施动者与动作的关系，应该使用主动语态。 【知识模块】 改错 9 【正确答案】 reproduce produce 【试题解析】 词法错误 ，形近词误用。 reproduce意为 “生殖，繁殖 ”； produce意为 “(自然地 )生产

16、，出产 ”。根据常识和上下文的内容可知，母鹿所需的能量是为了产奶 (produce milk)，而不是繁殖奶 (reproduce milk)。 【知识模块】 改错 10 【正确答案】 can 一 not 【试题解析】 句法错误，固定结构错误。句子中用到的是 “notunless” 这一固定结构，表示 “除非 才能 ” 。该句意思是 “除非该地区有充足的食物资源，否则无法满足需求。 ” 【知识模块】 改错 【知识模块】 改错 11 【正确答案】 another一 other 【试题解析】 词法错误，固定短语误用。 in other words为固定短语，意思是 “换言之，换句话说 ”。 【知识

17、模块】 改错 12 【正确答案】 was were 【试题解析】 句法错误，语法错误。这里用到了虚拟语气， if引导的是非真实条件句。为表示虚拟，系动词用 were而不是 was。这句话的意思是：换言之，即使我们见证了人口的快速增长，也并不意味着乡村人满为患。 【知识模块】 改错 13 【正确答案】 However Rather 【试题解析】 篇章错误，衔接错误。 however表示转折关系，而 rather则表示进一步的说明，意思是：更确切地说。这样才符合上下文的逻辑关系。 【知识模块】 改错 14 【正确答案】 there一 where 【试题解析】 句法错误，关系副词误用。此处的 whe

18、re引导宾语从句，作 move to的宾语，同时 where在从句中作 were的表语。 【知识模块】 改错 15 【正确答案】 geographical一 other 【试题解析】 篇章 错误，上下文语义矛盾。 geographical locations是相对于ports or locations withmany natural resources而言，需加上 other，否则概念不清。这两句话的意思是：工作机会通常都是在港口或者有丰富自然资源的地方。在交通变得相对便宜之后，其他的地理位置也成为经济活动的渠道。 【知识模块】 改错 16 【正确答案】 decrease一 increase

19、 【试题解析】 篇章错误，上下文语义矛盾。根据上下文，大城市的市中心人口趋向增长 (increase)，而非减少 (decrease)。 【知识模块】 改错 17 【正确答案】 第三个 the一去掉 the 【试题解析】 词法错误，冠词冗余。 South与 West共享定冠词 the。 【知识模块】 改错 18 【正确答案】 in over或 about或 for 【试题解析】 词法错误，介词误用。 concern一词后面接介词 over about for表示 “担忧，忧虑 ”。这句话的意思为：如果事实是这样的话，可能人们对于人口爆炸的担忧就会少很多。 【知识模块】 改错 19 【正确答案】 sparsely how 【试题解析】 句法错误，引导词缺失。 how在这里引导宾语从句，作 realize的宾语，同时它还修饰 sparselypopulated。这句话的意思是：实际上，你只需安排一次穿越郊区的驾车游或者飞机旅行，就可以意识到美国这些州的人口是多么稀少。 【知识模块】 改错 20 【正确答案】 slow一 slowly 【试题解析】 词法错误，词性误用。此处修饰动词 correcting应用副词形式，故将 slow改为 slowly。 【知识模块】 改错
