Error Correction
1. Through many years of evolution, your body has learned bow to respond to stress basing on its instinct for survival.
A.based on
B.taken on
C.founded on
D.built on
正确答案：A
[解析] 根据本句内容，划线部分应填部分是分词作宾语补足语；因此处于宾补与宾语(how to respond to stress)之间是被动关系，所以应填过去分词。
2. The experience of foreign countries is worth learning from and taking for reference.
A.learning and reference
B.our learning and our reference
C.our learning from and taking for reference
D.our learning and make reference to
正确答案：C
[解析] be worth(doing) something常用来表示(某事有趣，有用或有益)值得去做。例：A lot of the small towns in the area are definitely worth visiting. (这一地区的许多小镇很值得一游。)在此句中something是：我们学习和借鉴，所以应用our learning from and taking for reference。
3. A good dictionary will help you up in your reading.
A.in
B.out
C.down
D.through
正确答案：B
[解析] help sb. out帮助某人解决难题/摆脱困境；而help sb. down搀扶某人下来。
4. Yesterday I met Jerry on Wangfujing Street and found his bike was the same brand that of mine.
A.as that
B.like that
C.as if that
D.like it
正确答案：A
[解析] 本句是比较级的应用：the same+名词+as+名词/代词是同级比较；另外，被比较的两个事物应该是同等成分，为了避免重复，往往使用that来代替前面已提及的名词(复数用those代替)，因此本句应用that of mine(指the brand of mine)。
5. Individuals exposed to loud noise for long intervals may suffer temporary or permanently loss of hearing.
A.constant
B.permanent
C.consistently
D.constantly
正确答案：B
[解析] 本句考查的是同等成分的一致关系，temporary和permanently共同修饰loss of heating，应用形容词。
6. We learned that Columbus has discovered America in 1492.
A.had discovered
B.discovers
C.discovered
D.was discovering
正确答案：C
[解析] 本句是个主从复合句；主句用的是一般过去时，除一些特殊情况(如：客观真理总用一般现在时)外，主从句应遵守时态一致的原则，因此排除选项B；根据句意，哥伦布发现美洲(新大陆)不是当时正在做的工作，因此排除选项D；选项A是过去完成时，选项C是一般过去时，两者均表过去的动作，但一般过去时表示的是相对于现在的过去时间，而过去完成时表示的是相对于过去某一时刻的过去，即过去的过去；从句中有一个表示过去时间的状语。
7. With good reasons he is called a fool.
A.With good reasons is he called a fool.
B.He is called fool with a good reason.
C.With good reasons he is called fool.
D.He is called fool with good reasons.
正确答案：A
[解析] 本句为了强调with good reasons，将之放在句首，须将系动词倒装到主语的前面，使句子平衡。
8. In order to earn money for his family, it is necessary for him to get a job.
A.it is necessary to get a job
B.it is necessary to find a job
C.he must get a job
D.a job must be found
正确答案：C
[解析] 本句要注意主语与状语的逻辑主语保持一致；因状语的逻辑主语是he，所以主语也应为he。
9. I want to talk to the person breaking that cup.
A.broke that cup
B.breaks that cup
C.who had broken that cup
D.who broke that cup
正确答案：D
[解析] 本句需要一个可以代替先行词person且指人的关系代词在句中引导定语从句，因它在定语从句中起主语作用，因此用who，排除选项A、B；因cup已被打破，但这个动作是相对于现在的过去时间。
10. The project, which will be accomplished by the end of 2008, will expand the city’s telephone network to cover one million users.
A.accomplished
B.being accomplished
C.having been accomplished
D.to be accomplished
正确答案：D
[解析] 原句中which引导的非限定性定语从句不能和by the end of 2008连用，四个选项中只有动词不定式可表将来，如果不定式动作与谓语动作同时发生，要用一般式；且不定式的逻辑主语在此是不定式所表示动作的承受者，因此要用被动式。

A.needful
B.necessity
C.exigency
D.need

[解析] 本句意为：视力好需要有合适的照明，尽管人类的夜视偶尔会被极端的(过明或过暗)灯光的闪现削弱。所填之词在句中作表语，又由a限定，应填名词；因此排除选项A，因是形容词，表示：必要的，需要的；其余三个选项均为名词：B．necessity必要性，需要，必需品(指为了生存所必需的)；C．exigency苛求，紧急(事件)；D．need需要，必需，必需品(指需要某事或某物，尤其是它们还没发生或还无法利用)。

13. Don’t be late. I hate to be waiting for a long time.
A.being keeping
B.be kept
C.to be kept
D.be keeping
正确答案：C
[解析] keep somebody waiting使某人等待(尤指由于迟到)，如：I’m sorry to have kept you waiting. 很抱歉让你等了半天。本句意为：别迟到啊，我讨厌长时间等人。在此因为等待别人而不是使别人等待，所以用被动语态to be kept waiting。
