54、 made progress in listening.am改为was。动词时态误用。since引导时间状语从句时,从句时态一般用一般过去时,此处讲述的事情发生在过去,应用一般过去时,所以将am改为was。hardly改为hard。副词混用。hardly意为“几乎不”,hard作副词时意为“努力地、猛烈地”,结合句意“无论我多么努力地尝试”可知,此处应将hardly改为hard。which改为what。引导词误用。分析句子结构可知,空处引导宾语从句,作understand的宾语,结合句意“我无法清楚地明白老师或当地人所说的话”可知,此处引导词应用what,所以将which改为what。whil
55、e改为when。连词误用。本句为固定句型“sb.was/were doing.when.”,意为“某人正在做突然”,所以将while改为when。your改为my。代词误用。结合句意“一条英语听力的广告吸引了我的注意力”可知,此处代词your应该改为my。amaze改为amazement。动词和名词混用。to onesn.为固定表达,意为“令某人的是”,所以把amaze改为amazement。recording改为recordings。名词单复数误用。分析句子结构可知,本句谓语动词为were provided,所以主语应该为可数名词复数,recording of some wellknown books为主语,核心词为recording,所以将recording改为recordings。see改为seeing。动词形式误用。分析句子结构可知,本句谓语为fell,空处作非谓语,逻辑主语为I,两者之间为主动关系,作时间状语,所以将see改为seeing。love后加with。介词漏用。fall in love with.为固定用法,意为“爱上”,所以在love后加with。去掉a。冠词多用。make progress为固定用法,意为“取得进步”,其中progress为不可数名词,所以将不定冠词a去掉。
