8 i5 `# [8 i: t8 N- ~% S: @) Z 3、existing—existence 此行混淆,“生命的存在”应用existence。- Z, U, k% _2 [+ G. |
4、a---the; x: o( _# i6 F% a8 d5 v ?
5、which去掉或which后加are,句法错误。
% b3 q V0 A+ E 6、is---was 句法错误,时态错误。虽然主句的时态是现在进行时,但是从句中有时间状语once,所以用过去时。
; j" g4 H; w' P6 q# v5 f 7、of-----to 词汇错误,probe与to,into搭配。
- d" K% E# t, V/ I1 i& S6 x 8、reveal---reveals 主谓不一致。/ e0 x% N7 w- A7 U: s

6 p; \0 @- I! ` I" @7 q 10、comparative---comparable词汇错误。句意为:谷地网络呈现变种度量特征,包括与陆地流域盆地相似的网状密度。应用可比较的comparable。 |
