　　短文改错的解题技巧

　　．代词误用的常见错误有男性代词与女性代词的误用单数指代复数、代词词性误用等三种情况。如：解析：The smiths指史密斯一家或史密斯夫妇为复数改为their。介词误用的常见错误有习惯搭配中的介词误用介词后的宾语误用及动词词性确定错误等。如：(1)We don't seem to get much time to talk about together.解析：talk together：一起交谈为不及物动词去掉about；或者在about后加上宾语it变成talk about sth.(2)I am writing to thank you with your kind help.

　　解析：thank sb.for sth是固定搭配把with改为for。连接词误用常见的错误有：(1)并列句间意义理解不清导致用错并列连词。解析：“我们有越多的朋友就越能相互学习分享的快乐也就越多。”这里是并列关系故将“but” 改为“and”。解析：这里是并列关系而非选择关系故将“or” 改为“and”。(2)主从句关系理解不清各从句混淆使用。 解析：see后跟的是宾语从句从句中缺主语故将“which” 改为“what”表示“所发生的事情”。解析：if条件句中有一个主语从句故在if后加上引导主语从句的“what”。考查冠词的三个出题方向：(1)an与a错用；(2)a、an与the错用；(3)根据需要增删冠词。

　　In a Hispanic neighborhood known for its poverty and gangs，growing up can be tough.That's especially true for Garfield High School student Marco Antonio Aguilar.Aguilar says he had the wrong friends，often skipped school and even got into fights.The school suspended him and he almost had to go to a school for problem students.But a talk with his mom woke him up.“She was always there for me.What also sparked the fire more was that with the help of the teachers I received，and my knowing that they did care about me，the school did really help me，”Aguilar recalls.

　　Garfield High School Principal Jose Huerta does not believe in suspensions.“You don't have to suspend kids.It doesn't get you anywhere.It's not even expensive；it's very simple.Just connect with students.”he said.When he first arrived at Garfield High School more than four years agoral problems.“It could be from chewing gum in class to sticking gum under the things，”he said.

　　Jose Huerta，new principal at the time，changed the discipline policy.Instead of facing suspensions，those with behavioral issues will first talk to a teacher，and then a parent may get involved and eventually，a support group if needed.Garfield High School now has an 85 percent graduation rate，and the school has changed.
