大学英语六级改错是六级考试不同于其他英语水平考试的一种特殊形式。它之所以备受出题者的青睐,是因为它需要考生对英语具备相当高的综合能力。考生的得分率往往不高。无论语法、词汇、理解还是惯用法都能成为改错的对象,因此考生要在改错方面取得好成绩必须具备较好的语言基础知识(词汇、短语和语法)和相当的语言综合运用能力(词义、词形、词性、句型、结构、固定短语等)。

为了让考生迅速熟悉六级改错的题型并掌握解改错题的基本方法,这里以一篇六级改错真题和一篇六级改错模拟题为例,详细讨论六级改错的题型特点,并加以归纳、总结,使考生对六级改错有全面的了解,掌握解题思路和技巧,不至于考试时看到一道改错题,觉得无从下手。

ONE

Living is risky. Crossing the road, driving a car, flying,

swallowing an aspirin tablet or eating a chicken sandwich—they

can all be fatal. Clearly some risks worth taking, especially 71._______

when the rewards are high: a man surrounded by flames and

smoke generally considers that jumping out of a second floor

window is an acceptable risk to save its life. But in medicine a 72._______

few procedures, drugs, operations or tests are really a matter of 73._______

life and death. There may be sound medicine reasons for ac- 74. _______

cepting electrical shock treatment, but such reasons are totally

dependent in the balance of risks and benefits for the patients. 75. _______

Surgery for cancer may cure or prolong a life, but the re-

moval of tonsils(扁桃体)cannot save anything a sore throat. 76. _______

Blood pressure drugs definitely help some people live after a

heart attack, but these same drugs may be both necessary and 77. _______

harmful for those with only mild blood pressure problems.

Deciding how much discomfort and risk we are preparing to 78._______

put up with in the name of better health is a high personal mat- 79. _______

ter, not a decision we should remain to doctors alone. 80. _______

[注释]

71 risks ∧ worth → are

本句有一个由“when”引导的时间状语从句。主句“Clearly some risks worth taking”缺少谓语动词。worth是形容词,一般用于短语“be worth doing”(值得做某事)。原句中错把worth当成动词,漏掉了一个系动词are。

72 its → his

本句比较长,首先分析其结构:a man是主语;“surrounded by … smoke”是分词的后置定语;considers是主要谓语动词;that引导宾语从句;从句中“jumping…window”是动名词做主语;is是系动词;“an acceptable risk”是表语;to save its life是risk的定语。此句意为:“一个被火焰和浓烟包围的人一般认为跳出二楼窗户是救他的命的一个可以承受的冒险办法。”因而这里life指的是这个人的life,代词its用错了,要改为his。这属于代词与先行词一致性方面的错误。

73 are ∧ really → not

本句语法上没有错误,但是从上下文的理解来看,本句应是否定含义,不是肯定含义。从句首的“But”转折连词判断,上文提到跳窗户救命是关系生死的大事,但是在医学上,一些实验、程序等等却不是关系生死的事情。“a matter of life and death”是“涉及生死的事情”。此处属于篇章理解错误。

74 medicine → medical

此处是词性错误。medicine是名词“医学、医药”的意思,不能用来修饰后面的名词reasons,因而要改成形容词medical。

75 in → on

此处是固定搭配错误。depend on:依靠。dependent是depend的形容词形式。dependent on:依靠……的。

76 anything ∧ a → but

“cannot save anything a sore throat”句意不通顺,anything和a sore throat(喉咙痛)是两个名词短语,不能叠用,中间根据句意应加上一个but。全句译为:切除扁桃体只能治喉咙痛。这属于连接词错误。

77 necessary → unnecessary

本句属于篇章理解错误。necessary and harmful构成一对矛盾,因而要把表示正面含义的necessary变成表示负面含义的unnecessary。

78 preparing → prepared

“be prepared to do …”是固定短语,意思是“准备做某事”,相当于“be ready to do …”。这里prepared作形容词用。“be preparing”只能解释为进行时态,很显然这里不应用进行时态。put up with:承受、忍受。

79 high → highly

high是形容词,后面personal也是形容词,形容词不能修饰另一个形容词,因而把high变成highly。副词可以修饰形容词。这属于词性错误。

80 remain → leave

remain:保持、仍然,是一个表示状态的动词,其用法和系动词“be”相似,后面所接成分一般是名词或形容词,作表语。例如:He remains silent all through the night.leave是“留下,留给”的意思,是及物动词。leave sth.to sb:把某物留给某人。例如:Please leave the reference book to me.本句很明显是leave …to …的句型,所以应把remain改成leave。这是易混词错误。

根据以上改错真题分析可以看出,错误类型主要有篇章理解错误(73、77),词性错误(71、74、79),固定搭配错误(75、78),代词与先行词一致性方面的错误(72),易混词错误(80),连接词错误(76)。

TWO

Punctuality(准时) means observing(遵守) regular or ap-

pointed time. A man who gets up at seven o"clock every morn-

ing is punctual. A man who has permitted to call on a friend at 71. _______

five o"clock in the afternoon and actually does such at that hour 72. ______

is also punctual.

Punctuality is a good habit, and unpunctuality is a bad

one. A few minutes delay may not be a serious matter. 73. _______

But it may have bad results. Getting up five minutes later than

usually may upset the plan of the day. 74. ____

Call on a friend five minutes later than the appointed time may 75. _______

cause him some unexpected trouble. Nevertheless, habitual un- 76._______

punctuality leads to indolence(懒惰) and even failure in life.

One delay after another makes a man unable to exert himself. It

also proves him be untrustworthy. 77._______

Those who are unpunctual should try their best to get rid

from their bad habit. In doing this, they should avoid making 78. ______

any kind of exception. They should ever say to themselves:“A 79.______

few minutes’ delay does not matter this time. I shall never be

unpunctual again.” Those who think in this way will find excus-

es for delay from time to time, and will at least give up the at-

tempt cultivating the good habit of punctuality. 80. ______

Like all other good habits, punctuality becomes second na-

ture with those who have duly cultivated it.

[注释]

71 permitted → promised

permit作为动词,是“允许”的意思,常用于词组permit sb. to do sth.:允许某人做某事。根据上下文,此处应译为:“一个许诺下午五点钟拜访一位朋友,而事实上也做到了这一点的人是准时的”。这里所表达的意思是“许诺”,不是“允许”,应用promise,并且promise to do sth.是“许诺做某事”的意思,从语法上也符合。此句是易混词错误。

72 such → so

such和so的共同点在于两者都是代词,都是“这样”的意思。区别在于such不能单独代替某成份,而so可以独立代替前文所提及的事。如此句中does such a thing = does so,但是does such却不符合语法。本句属于代词误用错误。

73 minutes → minutes"

本句中minutes是名词,不能直接修饰后面的名词delay,应该用名词所有格形式,改成minutes"。这属于词性错误。

74 usually → usual

usually是副词,意思是“通常地”。这里five minutes later than usual中的“… than usual”是固定搭配。usual的类似用法还有as usual(和平常一样)。这是固定搭配错误。

75 Call → Calling/To call

本句主语是一个动词短语,但是动词短语做主语时,其中的动词只能用动名词或不定式的形式,因而把Call改成Calling或To call。此句属于非谓语动词错误。

76 Nevertheless → Moreover

Nevertheless作为连词,表示转折,意思是“然而,但是”。根据上下文理解,这里应是一个递进关系,不是转折关系。前一句是“迟到五分钟会给他带来预想不到的麻烦”,后一句说“经常不准时导致懒惰和失败”,因而是更进一步说明的递进关系,须把nevertheless改成moreover。这是连接词错误。

77 him ∧ be → to

“prove sb. to do sth.”是固定搭配,意思是“证明某人做某事”。原句缺少不定式标志to。这属于固定搭配的错误。 78 from → of

“get rid of”是固定搭配,意思是“摆脱”。用from是错误用法,应把它改成“of”。这属于固定搭配错误。

79 ever→ never

本句属于篇章理解方面的错误。根据上下文,此句应是否定句。上文说“他们应该避免有任何例外”,下文说“这样想的人总会为他们的迟到找借口”,因而此句作者要表达的意思是“他们不应该这样说……”,所以要把ever改成never。

80 cultivating → to cultivate

cultivate意思是“培养”,这里做名词attempt的定语。“attempt (n.) to do sth.”意思是“做某事的尝试/努力”,应用不定式做后置定语。此句属于非谓语动词错误。

从以上改错模拟题的分析,可以看出,主要错误类型有易混词错误(71),代词误用错误(72),词性错误(73),固定搭配错误(74、77、78),非谓语动词错误(75、80),连接词错误(76)。综合以上二篇改错考题的分析,我们可以看到,很难说出全部错误类型,因为无论是语法或词汇等方面小的细节还是篇章理解等大的方面都能成为改错的对象。由于考生不仅要理解单个句子,更需要理解上下文逻辑关系或其发展的脉络,才能进行判断和订正,所以,综合改错的难度超越了词汇本身测试的难度。

另外,综合改错题的设计兼有句子改错题及完形填空题的双重特点。句子改错题的特点是:测试语言知识,四个划线部分必有一错。完形填空题的特点是:测试篇章能力为主,每个空格有四个选项,仅择其一。而综合改错题的特点是含错误项的句子中,由于错项与其他干扰项没有单独用横线标出,因此错误项和正确项互相干扰,难以把握。此外,综合改错题不象完形填空题那样给出备选的正确答案,对大多数考生来说,正确地判断并改正错误是相当难的。 但是,尽管很难把改错题完全分类,这并不意味着无规则可循。经过对各类考试以及历年考题的分析、总结,我们归纳出九种主要错误类型。虽然这九个类型并不能代表所有的错误类型,但是它们能为广大考生提供思考问题的方法,使他们在做改错题时,能够有的放矢,准确迅速地找到并改正错误。
