　　短文改錯的解題技巧

　?。~誤用的常見錯誤有男性代詞與女性代詞的誤用單數指代復數、代詞詞性誤用等三種情況。如：解析：The smiths指史密斯一家或史密斯夫婦為復數改為their。介詞誤用的常見錯誤有習慣搭配中的介詞誤用介詞后的賓語誤用及動詞詞性確定錯誤等。如：(1)We don't seem to get much time to talk about together.解析：talk together：一起交談為不及物動詞去掉about；或者在about后加上賓語it變成talk about sth.(2)I am writing to thank you with your kind help.

　　解析：thank sb.for sth是固定搭配把with改為for。連接詞誤用常見的錯誤有：(1)并列句間意義理解不清導致用錯并列連詞。解析：“我們有越多的朋友就越能相互學習分享的快樂也就越多。”這里是并列關系故將“but” 改為“and”。解析：這里是并列關系而非選擇關系故將“or” 改為“and”。(2)主從句關系理解不清各從句混淆使用。 解析：see后跟的是賓語從句從句中缺主語故將“which” 改為“what”表示“所發生的事情”。解析：if條件句中有一個主語從句故在if后加上引導主語從句的“what”。考查冠詞的三個出題方向：(1)an與a錯用；(2)a、an與the錯用；(3)根據需要增刪冠詞。

　　In a Hispanic neighborhood known for its poverty and gangs，growing up can be tough.That's especially true for Garfield High School student Marco Antonio Aguilar.Aguilar says he had the wrong friends，often skipped school and even got into fights.The school suspended him and he almost had to go to a school for problem students.But a talk with his mom woke him up.“She was always there for me.What also sparked the fire more was that with the help of the teachers I received，and my knowing that they did care about me，the school did really help me，”Aguilar recalls.

　　Garfield High School Principal Jose Huerta does not believe in suspensions.“You don't have to suspend kids.It doesn't get you anywhere.It's not even expensive；it's very simple.Just connect with students.”he said.When he first arrived at Garfield High School more than four years agoral problems.“It could be from chewing gum in class to sticking gum under the things，”he said.

　　Jose Huerta，new principal at the time，changed the discipline policy.Instead of facing suspensions，those with behavioral issues will first talk to a teacher，and then a parent may get involved and eventually，a support group if needed.Garfield High School now has an 85 percent graduation rate，and the school has changed.
