Answer 1

分析 本文講述了作者的表弟，一個(gè)聰明但很淘氣的學(xué)生，在英語和數(shù)學(xué)考試中沒能考好而面臨一個(gè)讓他很擔(dān)心的問題--回家要家長簽字，在回家的路上想出一個(gè)調(diào)皮的注意，輕松地得到父親簽字的故事．

解答 1．pupil前面加a；考查冠詞，pupil是可數(shù)名詞，用a表示一個(gè)學(xué)生．
2．fails改為failed；考查句子的時(shí)態(tài)，這里"考試沒通過"已經(jīng)發(fā)生，所以要用一般過去時(shí)．
3．a(chǎn)nd改為but；考查連詞，結(jié)合句意"他很聰明，但很調(diào)皮"得知這里要用but表示轉(zhuǎn)折．
4．exam改為exams；考查名詞復(fù)數(shù)，句子提到英語和數(shù)學(xué)兩科考試，所以應(yīng)該用復(fù)數(shù)．
5．deep改為deeply；考查復(fù)數(shù)，這里需要修飾的是動詞worried，所以要用副詞．
6．去掉to；考查介詞的用法，這里home是副詞，前面不能加介詞．
7．on改為in；考查介詞的用法，in one's mind是固定搭配，在某人心中．
8．before改為when；考查狀語從句，這里用when引導(dǎo)時(shí)間狀語從句，意為"當(dāng)他到家的時(shí)候"．
9．a(chǎn)ll改為both；考查all和both的區(qū)別，both指兩者都…，all指三者或三者以上，這里是指兩只眼睛，所以用both．
10．去掉not；考查句式；根據(jù)語境這里應(yīng)該是肯定句，所以去掉not．

點(diǎn)評 短文改錯(cuò)首先要通讀全文，整體理解短文的中心思想，然后根據(jù)短文講述的事情確定文章的基本時(shí)態(tài)，再運(yùn)用基礎(chǔ)語言知識從時(shí)態(tài)，語態(tài)，句式結(jié)構(gòu)，固定短語等方面徹底進(jìn)行分析，以便盡快找出短文的錯(cuò)誤所在并加以修改．
