Answer 1

分析 本文主要講述作者和父親買票看馬戲時發(fā)生的故事．這是一個有著八個孩子的家庭，父母帶孩子們去看馬戲，都可能在十二歲以下．他們肯定沒有許多錢，雖然他們穿的衣服不貴，但很干凈．最后這家人如愿以償的看上了馬戲．

解答 Once，when l was a teenager，my father and I were standing in line to buy ticket for the circus．Finally，there was only one family among us and the ticket counter．This family made∧deep impression on me．There were eight children，both probably under the age of twelve．You could tell they didn't have a lot of money．Their clothes was not expensive，and they were clean．The children were well-behaved，all of them standing in line，two-by-two behind their parents，held hands．They were excitedly talking about the clowns，elephants and other performances what they would see that night．Everyone could sense that theyhave never been to the circus ago．
詳解：
1．ticket改為tictets 考查名詞復數．ticket是可數名詞，根據上下文語境要用復數形式．
2．among改為between 考查介詞．between一般指"兩者之間"，而among用于三個或三個以上的人或物之中，或籠統(tǒng)的一群人或一些物之中，表示"在…中間"．此處應是：兩者之間．
3．加a 考查冠詞．impression是可數名詞，單數形式前加不定冠詞a表示泛指．
4．both改為all 考查代詞．根據前文eight children，要用all指代，both指代兩者．
5．was改為were 考查主謂一致．主語clothes表示復數概念，謂語動詞也要用復數形式were．
6．and改為but 考查連詞．前后兩個分句之間表示轉折關系而非并列關系，用連詞but．
7．去掉were 考查動詞語態(tài)．behave是不及物動詞，沒有被語態(tài)，were是多余的，要去掉．
8．what改為which/that或去掉what 考查定語從句．分析句子結構可知這是一個定語從句，先行詞the clowns，elephants and other performances在從句中作see的賓語，用關系代詞which/that．關系代詞在定語從句中作賓語時也可省略，即去掉what．
9．have改為had 考查動詞時態(tài)．sense后接的賓語從句中動作發(fā)生在主句動作之前，即"過去的過去"，要用過去完成時態(tài)．
10．ago改為before 考查副詞．ago表示"從現(xiàn)在起的若干時間以前"，意思是"距今…以前"，需和過去時或過去進行時連用．before泛指"從過去起的若干時間以前"，意思是"距過去某時…以前"，常和完成時連用，尤其在間接引語中．

點評 高考短文改錯題的形式有說明文，短文故事，書信等，具有很強的實用性．短文的內容和語言都符合高中學生的實際，從表面上看類似一篇學生習作．首先，通讀全文，了解短文大意，把握全篇的時態(tài)、人稱及行文邏輯，在通讀全文時把一些容易的錯誤先改好，再進行逐句改錯．其次，要進行逐個句子的改錯．這是要對文中的詞法、句法和語篇著重分析和特別注意．最后把改好的短文再閱讀一遍，檢查答案是否正確，感覺是否還有不妥之處，最終形成定稿．
