相信大多數(shù)同學(xué)都已經(jīng)迎來了期待已久的寒假，不過英語專業(yè)的同學(xué)可不能放松哦，等下學(xué)期一開學(xué)，專八考試就近在眼前了，所以不如趁著寒假趕緊多復(fù)習(xí)復(fù)習(xí)，多做做題練練手，非英語專業(yè)的同學(xué)也可以來看看，說不定英語水平能有個(gè)大提升呢。

The book is dead. technology has killed it. the libraries of the world are dooming to become museums. (1)____ americans, however, attend to bring an either-or mentality to most things. (2)____ the invention of television led to predictions about the demise of radio. the making of movies was to be the funeral bell of alive theater; recorded music, the end of concerts.(3)____ all these forms still exist-sometimes overshadowed by their? siblings, but not smothered by them. and with the direst predictions, reading continues to be part of the life of the mind.(4)____there's no question that reading off-paper, as i think of it, will increase in years to come. (5)____ a library that got 10 as gifts reported that within a half hour they had all checked out. (6)____ and there's no question that once again we will be treated to lamentations suggesting that true literacy has become the lost art. the difference this tune is that we will confront with elitism from both sides. (7)____ not only have literary purists now complain of the evanescent nature of letters onscreen, the tech fanatics have become equally disdainful of the old form.(8)____perhaps we should look past both sides to concern ourselves with function instead of form. i am cheered by the gallup poll in which asks a simple question do you happen to be reading any books or novels at present?(9)____ in 1952 a merely 18 percent of respondents said yes.(10)____? the last tune the survey was done, in 2005, that number was 47 percent. so much for the good old days.

答案：

1．dooming→doomed詞匯錯(cuò)誤。doom作動(dòng)詞時(shí)，表示“注定，判定”。be doomed to是固定搭配，表示“注定”。
2．a(chǎn)ttend→tend詞匯錯(cuò)誤。attend表示“出席；照料；注意”，attend to是固定搭配，表示“注意，專心”。下一句提到“電視機(jī)的發(fā)明預(yù)示著無線電的消亡，電影的制作敲響了歌劇的喪鐘，而錄制的音樂也將終結(jié)演唱會。”因此本句不是強(qiáng)調(diào)美國人關(guān)注某件事，而是強(qiáng)調(diào)思維的傾向性，因此用attend的形近詞tend，表示“傾向于”。
3．a(chǎn)live→live詞匯錯(cuò)誤。alive是形容詞，表示“活著的，有活力的”，不能作前置定語修飾theater，這里應(yīng)該用形容詞live，表示“現(xiàn)場的”。
4．with→despite話篇錯(cuò)誤。本句前半部分說“有著這些可怕的預(yù)言”，后半句指出“閱讀一直都是精神生活的一部分”，從語義邏輯來判斷此處表示讓步，由于with也后面是名詞，不能用連詞though，只能用表讓步的介詞despite。
5．years→the詞匯錯(cuò)誤。本句中to come是不定式短語作后置定語修飾前面的years，表不“在即將到來的幾年里”，既然有定語對years進(jìn)行限定，那么這里就應(yīng)該是特指，因此要加上定冠詞the。
6．checked→been語法錯(cuò)誤。本句說某圖書館獲得了10部電子讀物作為禮物，這里的they指代的是前面提到的10 books，這些書在半小時(shí)之內(nèi)全部借出，應(yīng)該用被動(dòng)語態(tài)，因此在checked out前面加been。
7．with→with?一詞匯錯(cuò)誤。confront表示“面臨，遭遇”，若要與with搭配則應(yīng)該用be confronted with的形式，表示“使面臨”，本句話是說“我們從兩方面來看待精英政治”，那么此處要么用be confronted with，要么直接用confront，此題只能用第二種改法，因此刪掉with。
8．have→do語法錯(cuò)誤。not only放在句首要都分倒裝，如果have作助動(dòng)詞，那么本句是現(xiàn)在完成時(shí)，complain應(yīng)該用過去分詞形式，但是本句有一個(gè)明顯的時(shí)間詞now，表示現(xiàn)在一般性的動(dòng)作，因此要用一般現(xiàn)在時(shí)，助動(dòng)詞have改成do。
9．in→in?語法錯(cuò)誤。本句是定語從句修飾先行詞the gallup poll，而定語從句中首先出現(xiàn)了謂語動(dòng)詞asks，可見缺少的是主語，而不是狀語，因此要有關(guān)系代詞that或which替代the gallup poll，本句中which前面的介詞in必須刪掉。
10．merely→mere語法錯(cuò)誤。merely是副詞表示“僅僅”，此處放在不定冠詞a之后用來修飾名詞性短語18 percent，因此要改為形容詞mere。

大家都對了幾道呢？記得一定要把錯(cuò)題記下來，日后反復(fù)復(fù)習(xí)哦！
