　　Part V Error Correction

　　62. after→before

　　根據(jù)上下文邏輯，此處顯然指孩子學(xué)會(huì)說(shuō)話之前的聽(tīng)力，而非之后，故將after改為before。

　　63. like→as

　　like和as都有“像”的意思，但是此處要求填人一個(gè)具有“作為”之意的單詞，故將like改為as。

　　64. in→by

　　此處應(yīng)為表示方式的借詞，故用by，意為“以某種方式”。

　　65. 1ead→leads

　　此處句子的主語(yǔ)是attempt，而不是動(dòng)詞前面的words，所以要用單數(shù)第三人稱的形式，將lead改為leads。

　　66. 在they前增加that

　　it是句子的形式主語(yǔ)，they enjoy making noises才是句子的邏輯主語(yǔ)，由于是主語(yǔ)從句，故引導(dǎo)詞that是不能省略的。

　　67. noise→noises

　　one or two按照復(fù)數(shù)對(duì)待，所以后面是noises。

　　68. particular→particularly

　　修飾形容詞indicative應(yīng)該使用副詞particularly。

　　69. can→cannot

　　根據(jù)上下文，此處應(yīng)為否定，故使用cannot。

　　70. making→made

　　此處指“發(fā)出的聲音和說(shuō)的話”，sound和make間是被動(dòng)關(guān)系，故使用過(guò)去分詞作定語(yǔ)。

　　71. 在point后加at

　　定語(yǔ)從句的關(guān)系代詞指代先行詞point，可是從句中缺少的是狀語(yǔ)，因此在which前加上介詞at，那么at which在句子中作地點(diǎn)狀語(yǔ)。
