答案及解析:
1. of -> /
本行中only have oneselve to blame為習慣用法,意為“只能怪自己”。由本行后半部分的because of 后是一個完整的句子可確定because of 中的of 應刪掉,因為because of相當于一介詞,后面只能接名詞或動名詞。而because后接的應該是句子。
2. is -> are
That引導定語從句,修飾clothes,因為此處clothes為復數(shù),所以從句的謂語動詞也要用復數(shù)形式。
3. taking -> taken
本句前半部分是由because引導的原因狀語從句,主句為逗號后的they are ….designers;take advantage of sb意為“利用某人,占某人便宜”,根據(jù)by the designers 可知,此處是在講女性被服裝設計師所利用。
4. announced -> announcing
capable of后standing ….and …為其并列的賓語,故將announced 改為announcing
5. anything -> nothing
由該句中creation of waste可判斷,本句在表達否定或消極意見,而anything本身并沒有否定意義。Nothing more than和no more than的意思和用法相近,意為“不過,僅僅”,故將anything改為nothing。
6. cannot前加who 或that
cannot afford和waste均為動詞,中間沒有連詞及waste所在行沒有錯誤,由此可確定waste是該句的謂語,那么cannot afford就是定語從句的謂語。定語從句中,當現(xiàn)行詞為人時,一般用who或that來引導定語從句。
7. usually -> rarely
contribute…for…意為“為…貢獻出…”,后接貢獻的對象,類似的用法還有contribute…to / towards…;usually“常常,經常”,與上句NO one…for society和下句they are only interested in…look right在語意上矛盾,故將usually改為rarely。
8. which -> that
Tthe fact是抽象名詞,后常接同位語從句,which不能引導同位語從句,只有that才能。
9. picked -> picking
上一行中的or使其前后形成并列,故前后動詞形式要保持一致(與shaking保持一致)。
10. reflects -> reflect
本句為助動詞do置于句首的一半疑問句,謂語應為動詞原形;one wonders在此作插入語,是修飾成分,不與reflect形成并列或轉折關系。
