2011年大学英语六级改错模拟练习题26
Language learning begins with listening. Individual children varygreatly in the amount of listening they do after they start speaking, 1.________
and the late starters are often long listeners. Most children will "obey"
spoken instructions some time before they can speak, though the
word obey is hardly accurate like a discrption of the eager and 2._____
delighted cooperation usually shown by the child. Before they can
speak, many children will ask questions in gesture and by making 3._____
questioning noises. Any attempt to trace the development from the
noises babies make to their first spokeb words lead to considerable 4._____
difficulties. It is agree that they enjoy making noises, and that during
the first few months one or two noise sort themselves out as 5.____
particular indicative of delight, distress, sociability, and so on. But since 6.___
these can be said to show the baby’s intention to communicate, they can 7._____
hardly be regarded as early forms of language. Is is agreed, too, from 8.______
about three months they play with sounds for enjoyment, and that by six
months they are able to add new sounds to their repertoire. This self-imitation
leads on to deliberate imitation of sounds making or words spoken to 9.______
them by other people. The problem then arises as to the point which one 10._____
can say that these imitation can be considered as speech.
1. after -%26gt; before
根据上下文逻辑，此处显然指孩子学会说话之前的听力，而非之后。
2.like -%26gt; as
like和as都有“像”的意思，但是此处要求填入一个具有“作为”之意的词，故将like改为as
3.in -%26gt; by
4. lead -%26gt; leads
此处句子的主语是上一行的attempt，所以要用动词的第三人称形式。
5.noise -%26gt; noises
One or two 后修饰的名词按复数对待。
6. particular -%26gt; particularly
修饰形容词indicative应该使用副词particularly。
7. can be said -%26gt; can not be said
8. from前加that
it是句子 的形式主语，而后面的from about three months they play with sounds for enjoyment才是真正的主语，too是插入语，由于是主语从句，故引导词that不能省略。
9. making -%26gt; made
此处指“发出的声音和说的话”，sound与make之间是被动关系。
10. which前加at
定语从句的关系代词指代先行词point，可知从句中缺少的时状语，因此在which前加at。
