Everyone has a dream. We are on the way to achieve it whether the way is smooth or toughly. As Senior 3 student, I have the same dream as my classmates that I can be admitted to an ideal university. In the past three years, I have done everything I can to equip myself with that I have learnt from my teachers. Not only have I enjoyed the pleasure of study but also I have got closer to my dream. Anxious and pressure did discourage from me at times. Besides, with the encouragement of my teachers and classmates, I think I’ll make it.

I’m sure that there has still a long way to go to achieve my dream. No matter how challenged it is, I’ll make it come true. As the proverb said,” Where there’s a will, there’s a way.”

Answer

1.achieve → achieving

2.toughly—tough

3.Senior前加 a

4.that → what

5.anxious-Anxiety

6.去掉from

7.Besides—However

8.has → is

9.challenged –challenging

10.said → says

【解析】

试题分析：

1.achieve → achieving 考查动名词。固定搭配on the way to sth/doing sth在…路上，即将成为…；其中的to是介词，后面要接名词或者动名词做宾语。

2.toughly—tough 考查形容词。本句中的形容词tough和smooth是并列结构。句意：无论道路顺利很少崎岖，我们都会实现我们的梦想。

3.Senior前加 a 考查冠词。本句的主语是I，而且student是一个可数名词。句意：作为一名高三学生，我和很多同学都有同样的梦想，可以被梦想的大学录取。

4.that → what 考查宾语从句。本句中what引导的是一个宾语从句，what还作为动词learn的宾语。

5.Anxious-Anxiety 考查名词。本句中的名词anxiety和pressure一起充当句中的主语。

6.去掉from 考查动词。本句中的谓语动词discourage使…泄气，是一个及物动词，后面直接加宾语充当状语，介词from是多余的。

7.Besides—However 考查连词。句意：焦虑和压力有时候的确让我泄气，然而，有老师和同学的鼓励，我认为我会做到的。

8.has → is 考查固定句式。句式There be…有…；该句式不能喝动词have“有”同时使用。

9.challenged –challenging 考查形容词。形容词challenging有挑战性的，困难的。句意：无论多么困难，我都会让它实现的。

10.

【名师点睛】

“短文改错”题是各类考试中的一个重要题型。尽管该题难度不大，但仍有一些同学在做此类题目时不得要领，因而得分甚少。本文结合高考试题，对“短文改错”题中的常见错误加以分析，从中找出命题者设置错误的规律并介绍一些解题技巧。

(一) 名词方面的错误

名词方面的错误多指名词单复数形式的误用，可数名词与不可数名词的错误，名词所有格中“’s”的误置等。例如:

(二) 动词方面的错误

动词错误在短文改错中所占比重最大，它所涉及的错误包括动词的时态、语态错误；易混动词的用法错误；动词的第三人称单数错误；动词的非谓语形式，以及动词的句型搭配错误等。在改错题中，动词方面的考查比例较大。例如:

(四) 连词方面的错误

短文改错中出现连词就要判断连词用的是否正确，是否符合句子意思；连接的是词还是句子，是否符合逻辑关系。此外如果是平行结构就要注意前后时态、语态、词性一致问题平行结构常借助与并列连词and, or, but, not only…but also…, …not…but…, either…or…, neither …nor…, as well as等，

though不与but连用，because不与so连用等。

1.It started to rise higher again. So it was still too close to the water.

2. I became very active but made new friends.

3. My hometown is a pretty city, so people there are kind and polite. 4. While they find fish come to the surface, they fly down immediately. 5. Both your aunt or I look forward to seeing you again.

(七) 冠词方面的错误

这类错误多指a(n)与the的误用，a与an的误用。有时也表现为:单数可数名词前面该用冠词的地方缺少冠词，不该用冠词的地方多了冠词。例如:

5. I’ll send my friend Charlie to meet you at the airport when you arrived.

(九) 主谓一致方面的错误

1. “I just want to know what the sign say.”

2. Anyone can borrow books if he or she wish.

3. Here are the information about Manchester University.

4. What may surprise you are that I’m going to ...

1. My teacher advised me to keep my diary. keep a diary是固定搭配，意思是“写日记”.

2. In my surprise, he did very well in his previous job. To one’s surprise 是固定搭配
