In China, there is a old saying that one’s hair and skin are given by his parents, so there is no right for him to change his skin. But as the development of high technology, more and more people chose to take the plastic surgery to make them look more perfectly. Many years ago, plastic surgery was very popular in Korea. Chinese people start to accept the plastic surgery because the influence of the Korean TV series. Though people can make themselves look more beautiful, but I don’t support the plastic surgery. People will hurt himself, for they don’t know the risk that they may face. What’s more, after the surgery, there are always side effects, that hurt people all the time. For the normal people, it is no need to change their face. The real beauty is from the soul, while the beauty gaining by surgery can’t change people’s soul.

Answer

1.a --an

2.as ---with

3.chose --- choose

4.perfectly --- perfect

5.because后加of

6.去掉but

7.himself ---themselves

8.that ---which

9.it ---there

10.gaining --- gained

【解析】

1.a –an考查冠词。old是元音字母开头的单词，所以冠词用an，，在中国有一个古老的说法，故a –an

2.as ---with考查介词。但是随着高科技的发展。故as ---with

3.chose --- choose考查动词时态。本文用的是一般现在时，所以动词用一般现在式。故chose --- choose

4.perfectly --- perfect考查形容词。系表结构的表语一般用形容词而不能用副词做表语。look为系动词后面要用形容词perfect做表语。越来越多的人选择接受整形手术使他们看起来更完美。故perfectly --- perfect

5.because后加of考查连词。 the influence of the Korean TV series是一个短语，不是一个完整的句子，故because后加of

6.去掉but考查连词。前半句有Though，后半句不用but，故去掉but

7.himself ---themselves考查代词。此处指代People是第三人称复数，故代词用themselves，故himself ---themselves

8.that ---which考查关系词。非限制定语从句引导词用which。故that ---which

9.it ---there考查介词。对于一般人来说，是不需要改变脸的。故it ---there

10.考查动词。此处表被动，通过手术得来的美无法改变人们的心灵。故gaining --- gained

考点：考查短文改错

【学法指导】

在短文改错中常出现的错误主要有以下几类：

1. 名词单复数用错，可数与不可数名词的混用。

2. 动词：时态和语态，常出现在总体时态为过去或现在时，中间杂有不适的另一时态的现象；或是及物动词后无宾语，或是不及物动词后加了宾语；需要接ing形式的接了to，或相反等。比如第二句But as the development of high technology, more and more people chose to take the plastic surgery to make them look more perfectly. 考查动词时态。时态上下文前后不一致，本文用的是一般现在时，所以动词用一般现在式。故chose --- choose

3. 形容词副词：常出现需形容词的地方用了副词或相反；关系副词where， when， why等的缺失或错用。比如第二句But as the development of high technology, more and more people chose to take the plastic surgery to make them look more perfectly. 考查形容词。系表结构的表语一般用形容词而不能用副词做表语。look为系动词后面要用形容词perfect做表语。越来越多的人选择接受整形手术使他们看起来更完美。故perfectly --- perfect

4. 介词：主要是介词的多余或缺失，错用。比如第2句But as the development of high technology考查介词。根据句意：但是随着高科技的发展。故as ---with

5. 主谓一致性：第三人称单数漏掉s，或主语为复数，谓语动词用了单数；再就是就近原则对主语的影响。

6. 冠词：定冠词the的多余或缺失，如季节，月份，星期，球类及三餐活动，称呼头衔前等不能加the的地方加了the。比如第1句，In China, there is a old saying that one’s hair and skin are given by his parents考查冠词。old是元音字母开头的单词，所以冠词用an，，在中国有一个古老的说法，故a –an

7. 数词：主要是序数词与基数词的混用和错用。

8. 连词：不合句中的逻辑关系。如需转折连词（如but）的时候用了承接连词（so），或相反等等。比如第4句Chinese people start to accept the plastic surgery because the influence of the Korean TV series. 考查连词。 the influence of the Korean TV series是一个短语，不是一个完整的句子，故because后加of

9. 代词：主要是代词的格与数的错用。如男性用了女性代词，单数用了复数代词或相反；应当用形容词性的物主代词用了宾格，主格或相反，关系代词的错用或缺失。比如第6句People will hurt himself, for they don’t know the risk that they may face. 考查代词。此处指代People是第三人称复数，故代词用themselves，故himself ---themselves

10. 常用固定短语或固定用法及句型用错。
