1、专业英语八级（改错）模拟试卷 35及答案与解析 一、 PART IV PROOFREADING those after the (9)_ mother is 35 years old; pregnancies after four births; and those lesser than (10)_ two years apart. 1 (1) 2 (2) 3 (3) 4 (4) 5 (5) 6 (6) 7 (7) 8 (8) 9 (9) 10 (10) 10 The grammatical words which play so large a part in English gramma

2、r 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 (1)_ words have “less meaning“, but in fact some grammarians have called them (2)_ “empty“ words as opposed in the “full“ words of vocabula

3、ry. But this is a rather (3)_ misled way of expressing the distinction. Although a word like the is not the name (4)_ of something as man is, it is very far away from being meaningless; there is a (5)_ sharp difference in meaning between “man is vile“ and “the man is vile“, yet the is the single veh

4、icle of this difference in meaning. Moreover, grammatical words (6)_ differ considerably among themselves as the amount of meaning they have even in (7)_ the lexical sense. Another name for the grammatical words has been “little words.“ But size is by no mean a good criterion for distinguishing the

5、grammatical words (8)_ of English, when we consider that we have lexical words as go, man, say, car. (9)_ Apart from this, however, there is a good deal of truth in what some people say: we certainly do create a great number of obscurity when we omit them. This is (10)_ illustrated not only in the p

6、oetry of Robert Browning but in the prose of telegrams and newspaper headlines. 11 (1) 12 (2) 13 (3) 14 (4) 15 (5) 16 (6) 17 (7) 18 (8) 19 (9) 20 (10) 20 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 neither of them (1)_

7、 have been damaged in any way either before or during birth. Firstly, and most (2)_ 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.

8、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 within (4)_ minutes of birth and run with the h

9、erd within a few hours. Although young animals are certainly in risk, sometimes for weeks or even months after birth, (5)_ 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 o

10、n the others that it reveals the second feature which it shares with all (7)_ other undamaged human infants, a capacity to learn language. For this reason, biologists now suggest that language be “ species specific“ to the human race, (8)_ that is to say, they consider the human infant to be genetic

11、 programmed in (9)_ such way that it can acquire language. This suggestion implies that just (10)_ as human beings are designed to see three-dimensionally and in color and just as they are designed to stand upright rather than to move on all fours, so they are designed to learn and use language as p

12、art of their normal development as well-formed human beings. 21 (1) 22 (2) 23 (3) 24 (4) 25 (5) 26 (6) 27 (7) 28 (8) 29 (9) 30 (10) 30 There are great impediments to the general use of a standard in pronun ciation comparable to that existing in spelling (orthography). One is the fact that pronunciat

13、ion is learnt “naturally“ and unconsciously, and orthography (1)_ is learnt deliberately and consciously. Large numbers of us, in fact, remain throughout our lives quite unconscious with what our speech sounds (2)_ like when we speak out, and it often comes as a shock when we (3)_ firstly hear a rec

14、ording of ourselves. It is not a voice we recognize at once, (4)_ whereas our own handwriting is something which we almost always know. We (5)_ begin the “natural“ learning of pronunciation long before we start learning to read or write, and in our early years we went on unconsciously imitating and

15、(6)_ practicing the pronunciation of those around us for many more hours per every (7)_ day than we ever have to spend learning even our difficult English spelling. This is “natural“, therefore, that our speech-sounds should be those of our im- (8)_ mediate circle; after all, as we have seen, speech

16、 operates a means of holding a community and to give a sense of “belonging“. We learn quite early to recognize a (9)_ “stranger“, someone who speaks with an accent of a different community perhaps only a few miles far.
