试题答案

答案:

解析:

(1) knew后加how。根据上下文行文逻辑意义即知。(2) for改为to。 Pass on…to...意为“把……传给……”,是固定搭配。(3) 去掉to。 hear为感官动词,其用法为hear sb.do/doing sth.(4) 去掉so。因为what引导的宾语从句作及物动词repeat的宾语,what在从句中作heard的宾语,替代词so多余。(5) were改为was。句子作主语须用单数形式。(6) 第二个Writing改为Written。Written knowledge意为“书面知识”符合上下文意义。(7) 正确。(8) knowledge后加that或which。that或which引导的为定语从句,作主语,不省略;作宾语时一般可省略。(9) 去掉the。此处的意思是“当人们当初学会书写技能时,……”。first并非“第一”之意。(10) 在record之后加the。因为(that)they had known and liked为定语从句,修饰stories,故为特指,意为“他们开始记录下他们所知道和喜欢的故事”。
