答案详解
1. 将 had used 改为 used。
因为此句是虚拟语气,表示与现在事实相反,故条件从句中应使用一般过去时。例如:
Many would be wise if they did not think themselves wise. 许多人原本会成为聪明人-如果他们不自以为聪明的话。
2. 将 publishing 改为 published
report和publish时逻辑动宾关系,故应使用publish的过去分词短语来修饰report。例如:
Any discovery that we may make, however small, will remain acquired knowledge. 任何可能的发现,不管多么微不足道,都将成为知识宝库中的一部分。
3. 将 theirs 改为 their
4. 将 among 改为 between
在两次怀孕期间留出足够的`间隔时间,故用between。
5. 将过去分词 excluded 改为介词 excluding excluding意为“不包括……”
6. 将 respectably 改为 respectively
respectively 意为 “分别地 ”,符合句子的意思。而respectably意为“可敬的,值得尊敬地 ”。
7. 将 evidences 改为 evidence。evidence是不可数名词。
8. 将ill改为illness
9. 将 year 改为 years
10. 将 lesser 改为 less

It is hardly necessary for me to cite all the evidences of the depressing ____(1)____state of literacy. These sums from the Department of Education are ____(2)____sufficient: 27 million Americans cannot read at all, a further 35 million read on a level that is less than sufficient to survive in our society. (3) But my own worry today is more that of the overwhelming problem of____ (4)____elemental literacy than it is of the slightly more luxurious problem of the decline in the skill even of the middle-class reader, of his unwillingness to afford those spaces of silence, those luxuries of domesticity and time and concentrating,____ (5)____that surrounds the image of the classic act of reading. It has been suggested____ (6)____that almost 80 percent of America's literate, educated teenagers can no longer read with accompanying noise (music) in the background or a television screen flickered at the corner of their field of perception. We know____ (7)____very little about the brain and how it dealt with simultaneous conflicting ____(8)____input, but every common-sense intuition suggests we should be profoundly alarmed. This violation of concentration, silence, solitude goes to the very heart of our notion of literacy; this new form of part— reading, of partperception against background distraction, enders impossibly certain____ (9)____essential acts of apprehension and concentration, leave alone that most important tribute any human being can pay on a poem or a piece of prose he or ____(10)____she really loves, which is to learn it by heart. Not by brain, by heart; the expression is vital.
答案和解析:
1. evidences—evidence. evidence 为不可数名词,不能使用复
数形式。
2. sums—改成figures。sums 表示“总和”,但后面列举了一些具体数字,与总和并无多大关系。因此sums应改为figures。figures意即“数字”。
3. on—at。表示“在„„水平上”时,level 前须用介词at。
4. more—less。more A than B意即“与其说B,倒不如说A”而less A than B则表示与其说A,倒不如说B”。根据上下文,此处more应改为less。
5. concentrating—concentration。 and前后成分应对等,由于and前面是名词,其后面也应该用名词。因此concentrating应改为concentration。
6. that—which。这儿which用来指代前面的整个句子。
7. flickered—flickering,flicker为不及物动词,不宜使用过去分词形式作定语,故用现在分词形式作定语。
8. dealt—deals。该文章主要采用一般现在时,因此dealt应改为得deals。
9. impossibly —impossible。render sth + adj为一常用结构,表示“使„„如何”。如果其中宾语太长,可将其后置。显然impossibly 应改为impossible
10.on—to。pay tribute to sb/sth,系常用短语,意即“称赞某人⁄某物”。故on应改为to。
