答案解析:7 u4 b9 L8 w3 A2 N8 Z
1. high→highly。+ @& d' ^" ^( Z( a- M; \$ \+ O; L
2. relative→relatively。3 M5 }8 G! X* X x" p
3. easily→easy。在该句中easy紧跟在系动词be之后,与clear并列,即“your speech is clear and easy to follow”。# M7 \% l# \! _, b! h
4. late→later。( z; m* k) C8 s6 k, j
5. high→height。“in height”表示“在高度上”的意思,为固定搭配,没有in high的表达法。5 \" ?3 g- T% S" u
6. costlier→costly。costly是形容词,意思是昂贵的,它的比较级是more costly,costlier是错误形式。
* B1 A0 B8 r! h; D+ [( [: s, x0 W7. necessary→necessarily。
% n6 ~" K" B7 e+ \6 a# v8. medicine→medical。
- w! H& d% Q$ h0 _+ Z5 J9. worth前加are。本句有一个由“when”引导的时间状语从句,主句“Clearly some risks worth taking”缺少谓语动词,因为worth是形容词,一般于“be worth doing”。
2 M0 H1 |! ]* ~2 l. Z+ }10. minutes→minutes’。本句中minutes是名词,不能直接修饰后面的名词delay,应该用名词所有格形式。 |
