If there are a million technical civilizations in the Milky Way galaxy, the average separation from civilizations is about 300 light-years.Since a light year is the distance that light travels in one year(a little under 6 trillion miles), this implication that the one-way transit time for an
interstellar communication from the nearest civilization is some 300 years.The time for a query and a response would be 600 years.This is the reason why interstellar dialogues are much more likelythan interstellar monologues.In first sight,it seems
remarkably selfless that a civilization might broadcast radio messages with no hope of knowing, at least in the immediate future, they have been received and what the response to it might be.But human beings often perform very alike actions as, for example, burying time capsules to be covered by future generations, or even in writing books, composing music and create art intended for posterity.A civilization that had been aided by the receipt of such a message in its past might wish similarly benefit from other emerging technical societies.Unit 3

第二篇:大學英語四六級短文改錯
Until the very latest moment of his existence, man has been bound to the planet on which he originated and
developed.Now he had the capability to leave that planet ___1___ and move out into the universe to those worlds which he has
known previously only directly.Men have explored parts of ___2___ the moon, put spaceships in orbit around another planet and
possibly within the decade will land into another planet and ___3___ explore it.Can we be too bold as to suggest that we may be ___4___ able to colonize other planet within the not—too—distant ___5___ future? Some have advocated such a procedure as a solution to the population problem.ship the excess people off to the
moon.But we must keep in head the billions of dollars we ___6___ might spend in carrying out the project.To maintain the earth’s population at its present level.we would have to blast off into space 7,500 people every hour of every day of the year.Why are we spending so little money on space ___7___ exploration? Consider the great need for improving many ___8___ aspects of the global environment, one is surely justified in
his concern for the money and resources that they are poured ___9___ into the space exploration efforts.But perhaps we should look at both sides of the coin before arriving hasty conclusions.___10___
答案:
1.had-> has
2.directly-> indirectly 3.into->onto / on 4.too-> so 5.planet-> planets 6.head-> mind 7.little-> much 8.Consider-> Considering 9.they-> / 10.arriving 后加at 或 arriving-> reaching
考點例析:
例1: If his aim is inaccurate and he scores a goal, enjoys S3.____ the hunter’s triumph of killing his prey.解析:這是由一個條件狀語從句引導的復合句。但主句只有謂語動詞enjoys,缺少主語,因此要步上主語。根據(jù)從句的his aim可推斷應該加上主語he。
例2:Nuclear physicists who interested in the structure of 5._________ atoms cannot observe protons, electrons and neutrons
directly.解析:如果將who后面的部分作定語從句,那么它絕少謂語,故將who去掉,此時分詞短語interested in直接作定語修飾前面的physicists?;蛟趙ho后加are,補全定語從句。
例3:This alliance guarantees that all leprosy patients, even they S6.______ are poor, have a right to the most modern treatment.解析:even是副詞,后面不能直接跟句子,根據(jù)句子的意思,應該在even后加if或though。
鞏固與拓展
1.A student of music needs as long and as arduous a training
to become a performer a medical student needs to become __________ a doctor.2.This trip can be found in a booklet, Passport to the Pub:
The Tourists’ Guide to Pub Etiquette, a customers’ code of
conduct for those want to sample “a central part of British ________ life and culture.3.When a new robot is introduced to a small suburban
factory, a Shinto priest is invited to inaugurate._________
4.Since the law made easier to get a divorce, the number of __________ divorces has increased.5.Another changehas been caused by the fact people are _______ living longer nowadays, and many old people live alone
following the death of their partners
鞏固與拓展:
1.在performer后加as
此處為同級比較,固定結(jié)構為as...as...,而原句比較的對象a medical student前缺少連詞as。
2.want-> wanting或those后加who
for為介詞,后面的賓語時代詞those,不可再跟主謂結(jié)構。故將want改為wanting,用現(xiàn)在分詞短語作定語修飾those,或者在want前加who構成定語從句修飾those.3.inaugurate后加it
4.made后加it
句子主語是law,謂語是made,easier是賓語補足語,邏輯賓語是to get a divorce,可見此句缺少形式賓語it.5.fact后加that
fact之后的部分是同位語從句,補充說明fact,其引導詞不能省略。
綜合訓練
1.small-> smaller
該句后面有than,所以前面應該是smaller。
Many peolpe than ever are drinking coffee these days--but in small 1.____ quantities than they used to.Some manufacturers of coffee makers are
trying to make advantage of this trend by developing diminutive machines 2.___ that brew(煮)smaller amounts of coffee.Two U.S appliance companies---Black&Decker, basing in Twson, Maryland, and Toastmaster Inc.3.___
of Columbia, Missouri---has recently introduce ”drip" Coffee makers that 4.____ brew one or two cup servings of coffee.Neither of the products brew the 5._____ coffee directly into a cup or mug, eliminating the need for a separate
carafe.Since many people make a pot of coffee in the morning and drink 6.____ only a single cup, the new cofee makers should reduce the wasted coffee.Black&Decker’s Cup-at-a-Time spends $27, while Toastmaster’s Coffee 7.___ Break retails for $20.Black&Decker also makes a coffee maker drips coffee directly into a 8.____ carry-around thermal carafe.The carafe, a glass vacuum bottle, is supposed to keep the coffee fresh for hours.The product, called the Thermal Carafe coffee-maker, comes with a built-in lid that opens during the brewing
process, closes when it is completed.There are several models, including 9.____ one that firs under the counter, ranging from $60 to $110 at price.10
1.small-> smaller
該句后面有than,所以前面應該是smaller。
2.make-> take
take advantage of 為固定搭配,意思為“利用”,與其同樣意思的詞組還有make use of。
3.basing-> based
base和它的邏輯主語是被動關系。be based on sth 以什么為基礎 base sth on sth …以…為基礎
what are you basing this theory on ?你這種理論的根據(jù)是什么?
4.has-> have
句子的主語是two US appliance companies, 謂語動詞要用復數(shù)。
做短文改錯先找句子主干:判斷時態(tài),單復數(shù)
5.Neither-> Both
根據(jù)文章的中心觀點,這里時說兩種產(chǎn)品都如何。故要用both 先通讀全文,了解文意
6.and-> but
本句的意思應該是:大部分人都是早上煮一壺咖啡 但卻只喝一小杯。并列句前后應該是轉(zhuǎn)折關系。
7.spends-> costs
spend的主語必須是人,此處主語是物,應該用cost表示 “該物花費了多少”。
8.maker 后加that或which
一個句子在沒有連詞的情況下不能帶有兩個謂語,本句的謂語是makes,而drips和之后的部分應該是定語從句修飾coffee maker,又由于先行詞在從句中作主語,所以引導詞不能省略。
9.closes前加and
在英語中,用逗號連接兩個獨立的主謂結(jié)構是不對的,所以要在closes前加and。
10.at-> in
表示“在...方面”,使用介詞in.
1.有比較級than一定注意形容詞為比較級
第三篇:英語改錯問題
白話英語(Plain English)難字(big word)
過時的字眼(old-fashioned word)We hope to visualize world peace in the future.(我們希望將來看到世界和平)charitable organization 慈善機構 We are trying to make everyone equal.嚕蘇或絢麗的字眼(flowery or wordy)
At this point in time, we should pull together for our goal.(現(xiàn)在我們應該為我們的目標團結(jié)一致)at this point in time = now 意義的重復或用字的多余(redundant)Enclosed please find the report of the meeting(即:附上會議報告,請查收)Mankind are considered the smartest animals in the world Police officers should treat citizens with courtesy Stewardesses for international regions may get jet lag sometimes.(國際航線的空中小姐有時會有時差疲憊的現(xiàn)象)
侮辱的味道(insulting words 或 slur)
For your information, the word you just used is derogatory(或 inappropriate)to describe someone of my race.(只想讓你知道:你剛剛所用的字,來描寫我的族群,是很不合適的)英語改錯問題
首先要說的是:每次改錯要你指出錯誤的地方肯定有錯,絕對不會沒錯,而且肯定在這行,不會到前面或者下面去!
然后要說的是:從革來看,改錯的判卷方法改變了。找出錯誤0。5分,改對錯誤0。5分 有錯的一句話,最多10個英語單詞,大家首先按詞性來劃分一次 名詞錯誤的可能(1)名詞單復數(shù)
只有這1種可能,而且到現(xiàn)在的改錯,我就記得就1次單復數(shù)沒考,其他場次必考!形容詞錯誤的可能
(1)意思顛倒,要改成反義詞
這個錯錯每次改錯題目都有,所以看到錯的句子有形容詞,先上下文看看,有沒有意思反了(2)詞性錯誤
2個形容詞在一起,那肯定有一個是修飾另外一個的,所以要改成副詞 介詞錯誤的可能性
(1)固定短語的搭配問題,不如key to,answer to, be faced with等
這個錯錯每次改錯題目都有,所以看到錯的句子有介詞,先看左右,有沒有搭配錯誤 連詞錯誤的可能性(1)承上啟下的錯誤
有時候,表示遞進的,但題目中給出even if,所以要把if去掉;有時表原因的,但題目中是therefore,所以要改成because。這樣的錯誤也時常出現(xiàn),但不是每次出現(xiàn)(2)非限制性賓語從句只能由which引導,題目中很會用that來誤倒 代詞錯誤的可能性
(1)代詞與先行詞不一致
前面說了是單數(shù),后面用了them,所以要改成it。這類的錯誤也經(jīng)常發(fā)生 動詞錯誤的可能性(大頭?。?)時態(tài)錯誤
明明文章在說過去的事情,但用了個is,所以要改成was 這個錯錯每次改錯題目都有,所以看到錯的句子有動詞,先看上下,有沒有時態(tài)問題(2)主謂不一致
they was doing …… 這樣的錯誤,找不出么,6級也別考了(3)非謂語動詞提前形式的錯誤
viewed……,they were doing…… 像這樣的情況,viewed就要改成viewing 如果后面是it,前面是ing形式,也要注意的(4)平行結(jié)構錯誤
前面連著2句都是to做什么,to做什么and do什么,這時候就要在這個do前加to 如果是to doing,就要改成to do
以上這些錯誤在考試中占6-7分左右,大家可以一定要抓住,后面的分數(shù)就難拿了 另類錯誤
(1)易混淆的詞
比如:His persistence was awarded when the car finally started 中間的awarded是錯誤的,應該改成rewarded(2)從上下文來看,應該改動的詞 一般發(fā)生在名詞的身上!比如前面說美國人吃飯的習慣,后面寫了chinese,那就要改成American(3)固定詞組用錯一個,造成意思完全改變
比如:It also takes rise to a blurring of the dis tinction between science and technology 要把takes 改成 gives 這樣的難點錯誤,解決方法是,能改則改,不能改確定哪個詞錯,騙2個0。5分
總的評注:做改錯題一定要具有一雙“慧眼”。重要的不是自己會運用一個語法點或知識點,而是能夠識別出錯誤的用法,以審查的眼光去面對每一個改錯題。這就需要掌握必要的答題步驟和技巧。答題步驟:
1一般來說,做題時千萬不要拿起來就改。先花
一、兩分鐘從頭到尾通讀全文,對文章大 致內(nèi)容有所了解,做到心中有數(shù)。
2然后把重點放在有錯誤項的標題號行,尋找較容易辯認的語法錯誤,如主謂不一致、時態(tài)、語態(tài)使用錯誤、非謂語動詞錯誤等等。
3如果錯行中不存在上述明顯錯誤,則應查看是否有詞語搭配錯誤,易混詞錯誤、詞性錯 誤等等細節(jié)錯誤。
4如果錯行中既不存在語法錯誤,也不存在詞匯錯誤,則從整體上查看上下文意思是否連貫,連接詞是否使用正確,是否有邏輯混亂的現(xiàn)象,如否定句誤用成肯定句造成句意不通等。注意:有時沒有錯項的行對改錯很有幫助。
5找到錯誤項之后,按要求形式進行改正、刪去或增添,并設法找到一個正確項使句子在 語法、語義和邏輯上都成立

第五篇:大學英語四級單句改錯例題解析(最終版)
單句改錯例題解析
【例1】Sorry,I haven't got any small changes on me.
【解析】這里的“changes”應改為“change”,因為“change”作“零錢”解時為不可數(shù)名詞。
【例2】Is the education free in all the countries?
【解析】這里“education”前面的“the”要去掉,因為抽象名詞表示泛指意義時不用定冠詞。
【例3】Peter is stronger than him.
【解析】在省略句或不完整的從句中,代詞的格應跟沒有省略、完整時的格一致。這一句完整的結(jié)構應該是“Peter is stronger than he is,因此不能用“him”。
【例4】The man bought 20 dozens socks.
【解析】象dozen,hundred,thousand等數(shù)量詞被大于1的基數(shù)
詞修飾時,仍用單數(shù)形式。所以這里的“dozens”應該改為“dozen”。
【例5】M illion of years ago,there lived a lot of huge animals on the earth.
【解析】“hundreds of”,“thousands of,“millions of等結(jié)構中,不可遺漏-s。
【例6】China is still a developed country.
【解析】過去分詞作定語表示完成或被動之意,而現(xiàn)在分詞作定語則表示進行或主動之意。而中國現(xiàn)在仍然是一個發(fā)展中國家,因此應把“developed”改為“developing”。
【例7】What a ashamed thing to do!
【解析】“ashamed”是“感覺羞恥的”,通常很少用在形容詞前面作定語,一般只作表語,而“shameful”是“可恥的”,通常用在形容詞前面作定語。所以該句的ashamed應該改為shameful。
【例8】We object to organize such an activity.
【解析】某些帶有“to”的動詞詞組里的“to”是介詞,而不是不定式符號,因此后面應跟名詞、名詞詞組,如果后面是動詞,就應把該動詞變成動名詞或與它相應的名詞,這類詞組有be used to,oppose /object to,be accustomed to,relate to,look forward to,等。
【例9】Of all the sports,I like swimming mostly.
【解析】對,一般說來,實意動詞都是由副詞來修飾的,但有時也要看修飾動詞的副詞與它修飾的動詞是否合意,如這句話里的 mostly就與swim不合意了,因為mostly是“主要地”,“大部分地”,所以應該改為most(“最”)才合整句之意:在所有運動中,我最喜歡游泳。
【例10】No matter who comes to work in our company is welcome.
【解析】“no matter who”只能引導讓步狀語從句,不能引導名詞性從句。因此,此句應改為whoever(=anyone who...)。
【例11】The jury found the defendant guiltily.
【解析】這里的“有罪”是修飾賓語“the defendant”,而并非謂語“found”,因此要用“有罪”的形容詞形式“guilty”,而不是副詞形式“guiltily”。
【例12】Everybody should be given the chance to reach their goals / aims.
【解析】要表達“達到目標”應該用動詞achieve,而不是reach?!纠?3】He has so many skills,which surprise me so much.
【解析】這里引導定語從句的which前有一個逗號,表示這是一個非限制性定語從句。從這句話看,這里的which指前面整個句子,而不只是修飾它前面的skills,所以它后面的動詞surprise要加-s。
【例14】The accident resulted from three deaths.
【解析】“result from”意為“是??的結(jié)果,由??而產(chǎn)生”,而“result in”意為“導致??結(jié)果,結(jié)果造成”,而這句話的意思明顯是“這一場事故造成三人死亡”,因此應把“result from”改為“result in”。
【例15】The United Nations are a world organization for peace.
【解析】“The United Nations”(聯(lián)合國)和“the United States”(美國)等雖然形式上是復數(shù),但它們是表示單個機構或國家,因此,如果是現(xiàn)在時,它們后面的動詞要用第三人稱單數(shù)形式。
【例16】More than one person have applied for the job.
【解析】主語由more than one...或many a構成,謂語要用單數(shù)形式。所以這里的have應改為has。
【例17】Anyone to Greece will see many sites about which they have read. 【解析】Anyone是單數(shù)的指稱,而they是復數(shù)的指稱,前后不一致,因此應把they必為he /she,或者把anyone改為travelers或people。
【例18】Such mistakes can avoid if you are careful.
【解析】當謂語主語是謂語動詞動作的承受者時,謂語動詞必須用被動語態(tài)。所以這里的avoid應改為be avoided。
【例19】If they were careless,they would have lost the good chance.
【解析】在非真實條件句中,表示與過去事實相反,if從句的謂語動詞必須用過去完成時形式had done。
【例20】He insisted that we discussed the matter at the meeting.
【解析】在suggest,order,demand,propose,request,insist,ad-vise,require等動詞后的賓語從句,謂語動詞用虛擬語氣“(should)+ 原形動詞”。
【例21】Frightened by the huge explosion outside his window,his head dived under the covers.
【解析】該句中的分詞短語Frightened by the huge explosion outside his window的邏輯主語不是the boy's head,而是the boy,因此應把his head改為the boy。
【例22】People of many difference nationalities together on the same block.
【解析】“together”并非動詞,不能作謂語,因此根據(jù)句子的意思,必須加上謂語live。
【例23】Having not got his letter for a long time,I didn't know what had happened to him.
【解析】分詞的否定結(jié)構為not +分詞,所以這里的having not應該改為not having。
【例24】Only then I knew I was wrong.
【解析】在以only,often,many a time,never,seldom,等為首的句型中,要形成部分倒裝。所以該句應該改為Only then did I know I was wrong。
【例25】Are you going aboard next year?
【解析】“aboard”意為“上船(車、飛機)”,而“abroad”則為“出國,到另一個國家”,該句的意思明顯應為“你明年出國嗎?”,所以應把 aboard改為abroad。
