英语专八改错解题思路
1. 宏观层面分析
(1)句子结构(理顺整个句子的结构,必要时检索上下文)
(2)逻辑关系(关联词选择:并列、递进、因果、转折、假设、让步等)
(3)时态和语态(完成时和虚拟语气是考查重点)
2. 微观层面分析
(1)缺漏(介词、代词、引导词)
(2)冗余(两个主语、同义重复)
(3)误用(词性、分词、正反义、主被动、形容词和副词级别)
(4)一致性(名词单复数、主谓一致、先行词)
(5)词义与固定搭配
3. 注意事项
(1)即使按照语感很快找到了疑似错误,也要坚持读完全句再做判断,可能会有新的发现。过于相信第一感觉而带来的失分是划不来的。
(2)分两次改比较合理,因为毕竟只有少数人能够在第一遍看材料的时候就找出所有的错误,尽管这些错误不见得隐藏得多深。
(3)常考题型,高度警惕。
冠词:the变a, a变the,补the补a,删a删the,每年都玩的把戏。
单复数:无非是his变their之类的,关键是细心。
近义词:例如distinct和distinctive,move和movement,interest和interests…
反义词:尤其看到dis, un, im,in,non之类的,更要琢磨一下。
关联词:几乎是保留节目,and, but, however, though, moreover, therefore…
非谓语动词:见了ing想ed,见了ed想ing。
形容词比较级:多半是把原形改为比较级。考的频率也蛮高的。
虚拟语气:注意一下还是比较容易看出来的,多长个心眼儿吧。
It:有时要加,有时要删,有时要变itself,总之多盯“它”几眼。
动词词组:其实主要是介词的问题,这个没办法临时抱佛脚,要靠积累。
