历年托福考试语法真题全面解析13
21. On May 20,1932, Amelia Earhart became the first woman fly solo across the Atlantic Ocean.答案：C
测试点：后置定语。
分析：the first woman后面是定语而不是谓语，不能用动词原形fly，而应用flying，或to fly。解题要点: the first…to do…是TOEFL常考习语。
22. Translated into terms of psychological theory, association has been thought of as the basis of to learn, conditioning, and creative thinking.
答案：C
测试点：词形／并列结构.
分析：介词of后不能加不定式(to learn),而应加动名词。此外，后文and要求两边同词性、同性质，因此，应当用learning与conditioning和thinking并列。
23. The Statue of Liberty was originally proposed in 1865 to commemoration the alliance of France with the American colonies during the American Revolution.
答案：C
测试点：词性
分析：(C)前面的to是动词不定式的符号，而commemoration是名词，此处应用动词commemorate。
解题要点：名词后缀-tion形式出现在TOEFL改错题中，应首先考虑其词性的对错。
24. Reptiles are widely distributed all over the world, but are much abundant in warm regions and are virtually absent beyond the treeline in the Arctic.
答案：B
测试点：more和much常被错用。
分析：记住more十形容词原级构成比较级。根据句意，此处应以more abundant与后文absent比较。
25. Alike light waves, microwaves may be reflected and concentrated.
答案：A
测试点：like和alike的用法。
分析：这两个词经常相互用错。alike的词性是形容词或副词，而like可以是介词。此处需用介词like。
解题要点: like或alike出现在TOEFL考题中，应当予以首先考虑。
