二、名词数

　　短文改错的名词考点主要涉及名词的单复数问题，即在该用复数的地方误用其单数，或在该用单数的地方误用其复数。

　　NMET2001：…so that I’ll get good marksin all my subject. _____________

　　NMET2003: Their word were a greatencouragement to me.____________

　　(1) We stopped to rest for a while and to drink some waters from a stream. (全国卷)

　　(2) We climb everywhere, not only in America. We have been to Europe many time.

　　(3) There are branch library in many villages.

　　(4) I hope that you two could come and visit us some times soon.

　　三、冠词连词常光顾

　　短文改错对冠词的考查主要涉及冠词的误加和漏用，有时也考查不定冠词与定冠词以及零冠词的用法区别(包括 a 与 an 的区别)。其中，涉及最多的是，当一个单数可数名词表示泛指时，其前漏用不定冠词；另外，冠词在一些习语中的用法也是一个重要考点

　　(1) After a hour or so we began to feel very frightened.

　　(2)I decided to climb the tree to see where we were.

　　(3) Some people read the books or watch television

　　while others have sports.

　　(4) Good health is person’s most valuable possession.

　　短文改错对并列连词的考查主要涉及and, but, or, so 等几个表示并列、转折、选择、因果等关系的词语。严格说来，这类错误主要属于行文逻辑的错误。

　　(1) We tried to fix it and there was nothing we could do.

　　(2)I told Mother, Father, Sister, all my friends here what a great time I had.

　　(3) It is a very important exam but I can’t afford to fail it.

　　(4)She was smiling but nodding at me.

　　四、还要注意形和副

　　NMET 2004 : I would describe myself as shyandquietly._______

　　NMET 2005 : He asked angry if we hadfinished the work.  ______

　　短文改错对形容词与副词的考查主要涉及形容词和副词比较等级的误用(尤其是在本身已是比较级的词前误加more)、形容词与副词的混用(如修饰动词时误用形容词或修饰名词时误用副词)等，另外，用作表语时该用形容词的却误用了名词、简短副词(如 in, down 等)的误加与漏用、涉及形容词搭配的as…as 结构、how 与 what 的混用等也是常考的考点。

　　(1) After an hour or so we began to feel very frightening.

　　(2)Charles said, “As soon as I see a realy tall building, I want to climb it.

　　(3) Last Sunday, police cars hurry to the taller building in New York.

　　(4)As a result, people in the modern world generally live much more longer than people in the past.

　　(5) For instance, one night he played strong and loudly music till four o’clock in the morning.

　　五、非谓语，细辨别

　　这是考查最多的错误形式之一。主要有现在分词、过去分词，动名词和不定式错误。例如：

　　NMET2001： My parents love me… and will do all they can make sure… _________

　　NMET 2002:We fed monkeys, visiting templesand told stories.  __________

　　NMET 2003:Soon I began to enjoy talk tomyself on paper as I was learning to express myself in simple English._________

　　六、习惯用法要牢记

　　主要考查习惯搭配方面的基础知识，其错误表现形式主要有三种：多词、少词和搭配错误。例如：

　　NMET2000: Suddenly, I caught a sight ofmy English teacher. ___________

　　NMET2003: My teacher advised me to keep my diary.  __________

　　七、句子成分多分析

　　不同的句子成分要用不同的词类；不同的语境要选择不同的词语。只有对句子结构和成分作细致的分析，才能找出用词不当的错误。例如：

　　NMET 2004 : I don’t know that they don’tlike to talk with me. ________

　　NMET 1997：I live in Beijing，where is the capital of China. _________

　　(1) In the last five years that they’ve climbed churches, high buildings and television towers.

　　(2) Charles said, “As soon I see a really tall building, I want to climb it.

　　(1) He is the man his car was stolen.

　　(2) That’s the hotel which we were staying last summer.

　　(3) That’s the palace where we visited last summer.

　　(4) I suddenly woke up in mid-night. And it was a long time I got to sleep again.

　　(5) In the past few years when we’ve planted thousands of trees along the rive

　　I love camping. It’s my favorite way to spent the    summer vacation. Last year, my family and I went camping in the countryside. It was one of the most excited experiences I had never had. We slept in a tent and went on a long walk every day. We cook over a fire and the    food always tasted wonderfully. For a whole week, I saw lovely mountain views or breathed fresh air. At night I heard the gentle wind blowing in the tree, and I felt so peaceful. It doesn’t cost much to camp, and what I believe    it’s the best way to get close nature and enjoy its beauty.
