9、g are even arguing for the same thing. But just as it seemed sensible for us to regard advertising without go to either extreme, so it also seemed logical to try and find as cold-bloodedly as if we could, what advertising in the Britain of the sixties really was.

10、50 million a year, or roughly 2 percent of the national income. We knew that it employed something over 200,000 individuals, the majority of which were paid salaries considerably above the national average. And we knew that it was supposedly run in accordance certain rather vague and often complex r

11、ules and professional orders.

13、& ERROR CORRECTION (15 MIN) Directions: Proofread the given passage. The passage contains TEN errors. Each indicated line contains a maximum of ONE error. In each case, only ONE word is involved. You should proofread the passage and correct it in the following way: (1)For a wrong word, underline the

14、 wrong word and write the correct one in the blank provided at the end of the line. (2)For a missing word, mark the position of the missing word with a “ “ sign and write t 【知识模块】 改错 1 【正确答案】 athe 【试题解析】 冠词错误。序数词前须加定冠词， “这是我与丈夫争论的首要问题。 【知识模块】 改错 2 【正确答案】 第一个 withof 【试题解析】 固定搭配错误。 take care of为固定短语词组

15、，意思是 “照顾，料理 ”，在此处是作定语修饰 too much，逻辑上的动宾关系，介词不可以用 with，这句意思是 “总是有太多的事要料理 ”。 【知识模块】 改错 3 【正确答案】 topon 【试题解析】 介词遗漏。此处意为：我们谁都没有力气持续保持精力充沛的状态，此处需加介词 on，与 keep起表示 “持续 ”这种状态。 【知识模块】 改错 4 【正确答案】 outup 【试题解析】 同定搭配错误。 pile out表示 “挤出，走出 ”，例如： Edward parked by the river and we all piled out pile up意为 “堆积，积累，搁浅

16、”，例如： The traffic starts piling up around this time此句意为 “当积满脏衣物、碗碟、灰尘时，我感到充满怨恨与压力，争吵又开始了 ”。 【知识模块】 改错 5 【正确答案】 herhers 【试题解析】 物主代词错误。根据上下文，应该用名词性物主代词， hers代指“她的工作 ”；此句意为 “大多数夫妻都试图两个人分摊三份全职工作，这三份工作就是他们各自的工作及家务料理 ”。 【知识模块】 改错 6 【正确答案】 andor 【试题解析】 连词误用。此句中有否定词 no time，故应用连词 or，表示选择，此句意为 “没有时间相互之间或与孩子一

17、起放松 ”。 【知识模块】 改错 7 【正确答案】 includedincluding 【试题解析】 非谓语动词错误。 include与前面 21 hours之间是逻辑上的主谓关系，故用 include的现在分词形式作伴随状语。 【知识模块】 改错 8 【正确答案】 has 去掉 has 【试题解析】 非谓语动词错误。时间状语从句中，谓语动词为 think， spend这里应用作非谓语动词，因为 time与 spend之间是动宾关系，所以此处用 spend的过去分词形式作 time的定语。 【知识模块】 改错 9 【正确答案】 SoWhile 【试题解析】 逻辑错误。根据上下文可以判断，本句和

18、前一句之间没有因果关系。本句从句意为：许多父母没有家人帮忙照顾家庭。主句意为：父母在家中亲自陪伴子女的时间在过去的 20年中急剧增长。显然，两部分之间为转折关系，应将 SO改为 while。 【知识模块】 改错 10 【正确答案】 dramaticdramatical ly 【试题解析】 同性错误。此处修饰动词 increase的应该是副词，而不是形容词。 【知识模块】 改错 【知识模块】 改错 11 【正确答案】 remarkableremarkably 【试题解析】 词性错误。 remarkable是形容词，而其后修饰的是另一个形容词similar，修饰形容词的应该是副词，故改为 rema

19、rkably。 【知识模块】 改错 12 【正确答案】 arguing forarguing on/about/over 【试题解析】 介词 错误。 argue on/about/over意为 “就某事进行争论 ”，例如：Lets argue about whether it is safe to go swimming in this weather让我们讨论一下这样的天气去游泳是否安全。 to argue for/against意为 “支持 /反对 ”，用在此处不合句意。 【知识模块】 改错 13 【正确答案】 gogoing 【试题解析】 非谓语动词错误。介词 without后面须跟名词

20、形式，将动词 go改为动名词。 【知识模块】 改错 14 【正确答案】 as if 去掉 if 【试题解析】 语义错误。这里使用了 as+adj.+as这一结构， we could后省略了前面提到的动词 try和 find，表示 “尽可能冷静地处理 ”之意。 as if意为 “好像，似乎 ”，用在此处不合适。 【知识模块】 改错 15 【正确答案】 theyit 【试题解析】 代词错误。由上下文得知，此处 consumed的主语应是前一段末句中的 advertising of Britain of the sixties，其代词应为单数的 it。 【知识模块】 改错 16 【正确答案】 whi

21、chwhom 【试题解析】 关系代词错误。 which是来代指 “物 ”，此处定语从句中的先行词individuals是人，且关系代词前有介词 of，所以应使用 whom。 【知识模块】 改错 17 【正确答案】 accordance with 【试题解析】 固定搭配错误。 in accordance with是固定搭配，意为 “和 一致 ”。 【知识模块】 改错 18 【正确答案】 ThereforeBut 【试题解析 】 逻辑错误。前一段指出广告业营业额巨大，从业人员很多，薪酬也远远高于平均值。而其经营需要遵循一定的规则，这些规定有些模糊，很复杂，但很专业。接着本句提出 “出现了怪现象 ”

22、，两者之间无因果关系。从下文中的began to disappear可看出，这与前段广告市场的繁荣景象构成对比，故为转折关系。 【知识模块】 改错 19 【正确答案】 supporterscritics 【试题解析】 语义错误。此句前面的动词是 dislike，既然不喜欢，就不会是supporters。前文多次提到 critics和 defenders，此处改为 critics合适。 【知识模块】 改错 20 【正确答案】 showedshowing 【试题解析】 非谓语动词错误。 all working in different waysand all showing quite startling differences 是两个并列的状语结构，因为主语和动词之间是主动关系，故动词应为现在分词形式。 【知识模块】 改错
