詳細解釋：00 waste是及物動詞，后面直接跟上名詞，of多余。
34 on offer是固定結構，類似的有on sale / on exhibition等。
35 介詞后要用V- ing形式， 用for短語表示目的， 動詞take多余。
36 這里是是“國際性會議”，并不是指誰的，所以our是干擾詞。
37 這是一個強調(diào)句，強調(diào)主語,如果用了through后面的 has的主語就是介詞短語through the improvement了。所以，through是多余的。對于強調(diào)句，解決的方法就是去掉It is …that后看句子主干是否完整正確。
38 這一題應該聯(lián)系下一行，刪除are后是用過去分詞作后置定語。
39 這里要用like，表示舉例說明，look是多余的，可以根據(jù)句意判斷出。
40 place沒有必要，與前面的主語they也不一致。
41 not long ago是固定結構，years是多余的。
42 as far as是一個連詞詞組，而for是介詞，后面接的是句子,應該去掉for。
43 句子沒有“既然”的意思，用了that造成句子意思有悖于原文。
44 這一行沒有錯誤。
45 這里of是多余的，應該去掉，用the same day做狀語。當然，如果是四六級的題目，我們也可以把of改為in，用介詞短語作狀語。但BEC中沒有這種改法。
