高考短文改錯(cuò)題旨在檢測考生在語篇中發(fā)現(xiàn)、判斷、糾正錯(cuò)誤的能力。該大題成了不少考生的“軟肋”。各類錯(cuò)誤像“妖魔”,不易辨別,但筆者總結(jié)了一套“孫悟空捉妖”式的改錯(cuò)方法。
作為孫悟空,首先要心里明白什么是“妖”,你才能火眼金睛,快速辨別。一篇改錯(cuò),通常是“1增1刪8修改”共10個(gè),組團(tuán)來襲的“妖魔鬼怪”,其本來面目無外乎三種:詞法、句法、行文邏輯等。且各路“妖孽”自有名頭,譬如:動(dòng)詞形式錯(cuò)誤(如時(shí)態(tài)前后不一致、并列不一致、時(shí)態(tài)與時(shí)間狀語的不一致、主謂不一致、非謂語動(dòng)詞的形式錯(cuò)誤),名詞的單復(fù)數(shù),形容詞或副詞的句法功能錯(cuò)誤,冠詞和介詞的多用、少用或誤用,代詞和連詞的多用、少用和誤用,以及不定式符號(hào)to的多用或少用,比較等級(jí),行文邏輯,語義重復(fù)等。
其次,身處妖境時(shí),悟空要口中念念有詞:“動(dòng)詞形式名詞數(shù),句法功能形和副,to和冠介需關(guān)注,代詞連詞細(xì)領(lǐng)悟,行文邏輯意重復(fù)。”口訣威力如咒語,令魑魅魍魎聞風(fēng)喪膽,魂飛魄散。
再次,欲鎮(zhèn)妖降魔,悟空不能赤手空拳,還須持有三件法器:照妖鏡、金箍棒和探照燈。通過眼觀六路,明察秋毫,那些明顯的一眼假的小妖即可浮出水面、現(xiàn)出原形,將其悉數(shù)剿盡(__);如遇真容難辨、迷惑性強(qiáng)的假悟空、假行者、假大圣,以棒(\)喝之!而對個(gè)別隱身藏匿玩失蹤(臥底或潛伏)者,探照燈(∧)伺候,或掘地三尺,或引妖出洞,使其無處遁形!
最后,讓我們以2019年全國卷中的短文改錯(cuò)為例,跟著悟空去捉妖,感受此法的奇妙之處。
全國Ⅰ卷
I became interesting① in playing football thanks to a small accident. One afternoon where② I was in primary school, I was walking by the school playground. Suddenly ∧③football fell just in front of me but④ almost hit me. I stopped the ball and kicked it hardly⑤ back to the playground. To everyones surprising⑥, the ball went into the net. All the football player⑦ on the playground cheered loudly, say⑧that I had a talent for football. From now⑨on, I started to play my⑩football with classmates after school. I am a good player now.
悟空按落云頭,逐句研讀,只見:
①“情感動(dòng)詞”在作祟。由其變來的形容詞指人,作表語時(shí),用-ed式。
②李代桃僵。此處用關(guān)系副詞when引導(dǎo)定語從句,在從句中作時(shí)間狀語,相當(dāng)于in the afternoon。
③單數(shù)可數(shù)名詞football活像一個(gè)禿子, 孑然而立,莫非其帽冠a被妖風(fēng)刮走了?
④連接混亂。天外來球“飛落于我眼前”與“差點(diǎn)砸中我”之間為順承關(guān)系,何來轉(zhuǎn)折?
⑤驢唇不對馬嘴。hardly與hard, 兩者詞意、用法截然不同,相去甚遠(yuǎn)。
⑥固定搭配。To ones + 抽象名詞。
⑦孤軍作戰(zhàn)。綠茵場角逐喝彩,非一己之力所能及,更何況有All修飾!
⑧動(dòng)詞形式。表示主動(dòng)關(guān)系的saying為cheered的伴隨狀語。
⑨行文邏輯。此一時(shí)非彼一時(shí)。
⑩畫蛇添足。動(dòng)詞play后的冠詞或物主代詞,恰似一套西服,“打”球“玩”游戲,不穿西裝,亦不用冠詞或物主代詞。而“演奏”樂器時(shí),則西裝革履,穿之用之。擾亂綱常,吃我一棒!
全國卷Ⅱ卷
Since I was a kid, Ive considered different job①I would like to do. First, I wanted to be a fireman, whose uniform looked so coolly②. Then, when I was in the five③ grade, I wanted to be a teacher because I liked my English teacher too④ much. When I studied chemistry ∧⑤high school, I reconsidered my goal or⑥ decided to be a doctor. They⑦ were two reasons for the decision. One was that I was amazing⑧ at the fact that a sick person could feel much more⑨ better after seeing a doctor. And the other is⑩ that I wanted to help people in need.
經(jīng)孫行者實(shí)地觀察,發(fā)現(xiàn):
①消極怠“工”。既然是different的“工種”,后面的名詞須用復(fù)數(shù);
②固定句式。“主系表”結(jié)構(gòu),副詞怎能做表語?
③張冠李戴。此處用序數(shù)詞fifth表示順序。
④言過其實(shí)。“喜歡老師”,用so/very即可。
⑤介詞缺失。玩燈下黑,致使“學(xué)習(xí)地點(diǎn)”無法鎖定。
⑥連接別扭。前后兩項(xiàng)為并列而非選擇關(guān)系。
⑦固定句式。“There be”句型。
⑧搖身一變。與卷I①同出一轍。
⑨重復(fù)比較。皆因much與more爭寵邀功所致。
⑩動(dòng)詞時(shí)態(tài)。應(yīng)與上文的was呼應(yīng),才前后一致。
全國Ⅲ卷
Ive had many dreams since I was a child. Now my dream is to opens① a cafe. Though it may appear simple, it required② a lot of ideas and efforts. What I want is not just an ordinarily③ cafe but a very special one. I want my cafe ∧④have a special theme such as like⑤“Tang Dynasty”. In the cafe, customers will enjoy yourselves⑥ in the historical environment what⑦ is created for them. If I succeed in manage⑧ one, I will open more. I wish to have a chain of cafes in many different city⑨. Each of my cafes will have a different theme and an⑩unique style.
卻說大圣來到一處陰森恐怖的無名地,不禁警覺起來,但見:
①畸形怪獸。不定式短語to open a cafe在句中作表語。
②時(shí)態(tài)有誤。應(yīng)與前文的時(shí)間狀語Now相吻合。
③越俎代庖。對形容詞和副詞的句法作用含混不清,做定語要用形容詞。
④固定搭配。“want sth/sb to do”固定搭配,不定式作賓補(bǔ)。
⑤詞義重疊。such as 和like均可表示“比如,像”“諸如”之意,此謂“障眼法”。
⑥指代錯(cuò)誤。泛指“顧客們開心”,用第三人稱復(fù)數(shù)反身代詞themselves。
⑦李代桃僵。此處關(guān)系代詞which/that在定語從句中作主語,指代environment。
⑧動(dòng)詞形式。 succeed (in) 后接 -ing式,介詞賓語。
⑨冤家路窄。與卷Ⅱ①類似,(many) different后名詞用復(fù)數(shù)形式;
⑩低級(jí)錯(cuò)誤。不定冠詞an只用于讀音以元音音素打頭的名詞或形容詞前, 輔音音素前宜用a。好大圣,痛捉眾妖,即駕云遠(yuǎn)去……
綜觀全局,高考短文改錯(cuò)并非奧妙無窮、深不可測的“黑洞”。只要我們勤于思考,改錯(cuò)得法,練就一身火眼金睛的真功夫,巧用此招,就會(huì)屢試不爽。
