时态语态和语气的使用错误
1. 时态错误。 主要是指在一个句子中,出现不同的时态,从而造成时态不一致,如: He can't remember what he once knows.
2. 语态错误。 在 cet6 综合改错题中最常见的语态错误是被动语态被误用为主动语态。不及物动词不能带宾语,因而也就没有被动语态。如: She was very angry at not telling the truth when she listened to the account.
3. 虚拟语态错误。 此类使用错误在综合改错题中主要表现为主语和从句的语气不协调,如: We strongly suggest that Henry is told about his physical condition as soon as possible. 句中动词 suggest 之后的从句应用虚拟语气,故“ is ”应该 “ be ”或“ should be ”。类似的动词还有 demand , insist , order 等等。
例 1 These newly wedded couples usually came here and meet 1.__________
together to hold parties.
由于前面的时态已经限制为过去时,而且 came 和 meet 是并列结构,两者时态应该保持一致,因此应该将 meet 改为 met ,或者将 came 改为 come ,具体情况依据上下文的语境时态而定。
例 2 Computer analyzed marketing reports can help deciding
which products to emphasize now, which to develop
for the future, and which to be dropped. 1.__________
本句中三个平行成分 which products to emphasize now , which to develop for the future 和 which to be dropped 结构模式应该一致,均采用不定式主动语态,因而 to be dropped 应改为 to drop .
例 3 In the first place, the scientist at once put some
kind of material into the liquid which has already 1.__________
securely obtained.
根据句子意思可知,此处的 liquid 不可能为动作的发生者,显然此处应该是被动语态,故应该将 has 改为 is 或者在 has 后加 been 均可,意思是指“已经安全获得的液体”。
例 4 Did they gone there yesterday, they would have discovered 1.__________
the truth.
根据句子意思可知,这句话是说如果他们昨天去了就会发现事实真相,然而他们并未去,此处是虚拟语气,因此应该使用虚拟语气的格式,将 Did 改为 Had .

答案解析:working→work.此句总体上讲述的是这些小家庭独立的掠影,而后半句解释到这些小家庭的成员生活在一起、工作在一起的情景,应该用一般现在时,和live保持一致。 are→were. are→were. allow前加be.“be allowed to do sth.”是“被允许作……”的意思。 offered前加be.“offer”是及物动词,后面应该接双宾语结构,即“offer sb. sth.”而在该句中缺少成分而只有宾语补主语,应该将其改为被动语态,即“be offered sth.”
6. offered→offers.
7. taken前加have.
8. plan→planned.
9. kept→keep.
10. carry→carrying.
