字號:

In department stores and closets all over the world, they are waiting. Their outward appearance seems rather appealing since __1__ they come in a variety of styles, textures, and colors.
    And they are ultimately the biggest deception that exists in the __2__ fashionable industry today. What are they? They are high heels __3__ ——woman's worst enemy ( whether she knows it or not). High heel __4__ shoes are the downfall of modern society. Fashion myths have led women to believe that they are more beautiful or sophisticating __5__ for wearing heels, but in reality, heels succeed on posing short as __6__ as well as long term hardships. Women should fight the high hell industry by refusing to use or purchase them in order to save the world of unnecessary physical and psychological suffering. __7__ For the sake of fairness, it must be noted that there is a positive side to high heels. First, heels are excellent for aerating lawns.
    Anyone who has ever worn heels on grass know what I am talking __8__ about. A simple trip around the yard on a pair of those babies __9__ eliminates all needs to call for a lawn care specialist, and provides __10__ the perfect-sized holes to give any lawn oxygen without all those messy chunks of dirt lying around.
    【答案】
    1.since改為because或者for.當since表示原因時,它往往出現(xiàn)在句子的開頭而非中間。
    2.And改為But.從與上一段的關(guān)系看來,這里是轉(zhuǎn)折而不是承接。
    3.fashionable改為fashion.fashionable是形容詞表示“時尚的,時髦的”,而這里所指的是“時尚產(chǎn)業(yè)”,所以應該用它的名詞形式。
    4.woman前加上a或者woman改為women.可數(shù)名詞單數(shù)形式前面必須加冠詞,因此這里須加上a,或者將woman變成服侍形式表類指。
    5.sophisticating改為sophisticated
    6.on改為in.succeed 與介詞in連用,后面加動詞ing形式。如:We have already succeeded in working out ground rules with the Department of Defense. 7.of 改為from,save sb from doing sth 表示“避免某人做某事”。
    8.know改為knows.主語和謂語在形式上須一致,anyone在語義上表達的是單數(shù)含義。
    9.on改為in.英語表示穿戴往往用介詞in.
    10.needs改為need.盡管need前用了all來限定,但need所指的是“叫來草坪護理專家”這單一的含義,因此應該用單數(shù),all在這里只是起到強調(diào)的作用。
