* h+ u: W7 a: k& N% T 答案:3 Y( T- ]1 o8 X h. X, j
1.it改为one
# d2 `+ ~: w/ F( q0 D 这里需要的代词应理解为“这样的一个考试”,而不是“这个考试”;另外,it的形式与上文的examination不符+ X2 n/ D/ p' L. A% f
2. as后加冠词a; Z& _! f3 L5 u, g5 V* D# c! Y
表示“一个要求”
( M9 Y# x7 l, j9 X 3. and改为or+ x$ ?# Q. G" Z
应组成“whether...or...”结构* \5 @9 t2 X# `. ]8 R7 _
4. 去掉but" ~6 c0 B6 g5 t* c# i& Z. _
whether开头的句子是一个主从复合句,所以主句前不加连词but
$ _; ^+ W& a/ A' l2 f* [ U8 b 5. 去掉with或将offer改为provide, Y0 C' r6 g, {
offer是及物动词,可跟双宾语
! k3 |6 f6 G! e. O: _, _: _ 6.synthesis改为synthesize! W; N; t3 X4 R/ `; s4 Q
这里的平行结构除了synthesis之外都是名词,所以需要改为动词形式2 I: L B$ o, A! K( T
7. collection改为recollection
, K* z) H |/ H4 S, u/ y8 q 这里不表示“收集”,而是“有关事实和细节的会议”
3 m+ n |5 i3 n. V( O# @ 8.completely改为complete2 N# w/ l( D7 ?9 F$ H
被修饰词understanding是动名词,所以应用形容词来修饰' R+ s y5 T- j' F3 k. m8 p4 |+ {
9.for改为to
6 H# T$ b% R. `2 V' k. u4 f& Z “for whom”言下之意是“为了指导老师来展示....”,而“to whom”是“展示给老师看”
% G# v* U P( N: @2 |/ u; \ 10.applying改为application
# q! h: m N' ^ 如果一个词本身有名词形式,尽量不要使用动名词 |
