　　英语专业八级

（2）答案和解析:

1.将hadused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:

　　Manywouldbewiseiftheydidnotthinkthemselveswise.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:

　　Anydiscoverythatwemaymake,howeversmall,willremainacquiredknowledge.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

"Hark,Iheartheassesbray.Methinkswe’llhavesomeraintoday."

英语专业八级（4）答案和解析:

1.While—When或After.本句的this指代的是tochangetheweatherbyusingmagic.when/after引导时间状语

2.in—than.earlier是early的比较级，其后应有than

3.those之后加who.who引导定语从句

4.删除advance前的the.inadvance为习语

5.take—have.haveconnectionwith为习语

6.controlled—controlling或在controlled前加that/which.controllingtheweather或that/whichcontrolledtheweather做定语修饰theactualfactors

7.and—or.rain和draught只能是二者之一

8.删除is.与上文平衡，均为省略句

9.before—when/if.条件句

10.will—would.if引导的是条件句用的是remained一般过去时

英语专业八级（5）答案和解析:

1.将no改为not　

　　2.将place改为land　

　　place是可数名词，作“地方”讲,而land意为“土地，田地”是不可数名词。

例如:

　　Solitudeisagoodplacetovisitbutapoorplacetostay.

　　当你偶尔光顾时，独处是一个美妙的境地，但是如果久留，它却是一个糟糕的地方。

　　Thereisavacantpieceoflandnearthehouse;wecanbuildthere.

　　3.将started改为start

　　start应使用不定式，以和前面的find,build一致。

　　4.将working改为work

　　work应该用第三人称复数，和live一致。

另外，family在这里作“家人”讲，是复数。

　　5.将anyone改为everyone

　　这里是要用everyone指每个人，而不是要用anyone泛指。

　　6.将but删除　

　　7.将before改为after

　　根据上下文判断，这里要表达的是二战之后。

　　8.将But改为And

　　根据语意，这里要表达的是递进关系，而不是转折关系。

例如：

　　WhenIdogood,Ifeelgood.WhenIdobad,Ifeelbad.Andthat’smyreligion.

　　当我行善事，我感到坦然;当我行恶时，我感到内疚。

这就是我的人生之道。

　　9.将it改为they

　　10.在housethe中间加入介词as

　　regard...as作“把……当作……”讲。
