近幾年,短文改錯(cuò)題型正逐漸被一些省、市的中考英語(yǔ)試卷所采用。短文改錯(cuò)題是集語(yǔ)法知識(shí)與語(yǔ)言技能為一體的綜合性試題,旨在考查考生對(duì)語(yǔ)言的評(píng)價(jià)與校正的能力,以及對(duì)詞匯、語(yǔ)法和語(yǔ)篇三要素的把握能力。
短文改錯(cuò)題的材料多為以第一、三人稱為主的記敘文和應(yīng)用文(以書信為主),每篇短文120~150詞。所選取的語(yǔ)言材料內(nèi)容多為考生所熟知的,話題也貼近現(xiàn)實(shí)生活,有的帶點(diǎn)兒幽默意味,有的具有潛在教育意義。材料中的文字淺顯易懂,句子結(jié)構(gòu)簡(jiǎn)單,語(yǔ)言符合表達(dá)習(xí)慣。
一般來(lái)說(shuō),短文改錯(cuò)題的考查形式可以分為下列三種類型:
畫線提示型短文改錯(cuò)題多以記敘文為素材,話題比較常見,篇章的難易程度符合初中學(xué)生的認(rèn)知水平,文章以簡(jiǎn)單句為主。該類題型的形式是給出一段或數(shù)段短文,將其排列成若干行,錯(cuò)誤的單詞下面已經(jīng)用下劃線予以標(biāo)出,以此作為答題的提示信息。例如:

不加提示型短文改錯(cuò)題的短文體裁以記敘文為主,題材也會(huì)很常見,篇章的難易程度較畫線提示型和分行改正型稍簡(jiǎn)單些。短文以簡(jiǎn)單句為主,偶爾涉及并列句或簡(jiǎn)單的復(fù)合句。該類題型的形式是,對(duì)原短文材料不刻意設(shè)置行數(shù),也不標(biāo)示出待修改的具體位置(即無(wú)提示痕跡)。文中共有5或10處錯(cuò)誤(每句中最多有兩處),錯(cuò)誤涉及一個(gè)單詞的增加、刪除或修改。要求在缺詞處加一個(gè)漏字符號(hào)∧,并在其下面寫出該加的詞,把多余的詞用“\”劃掉。錯(cuò)的詞,在其下畫一橫線,并在該詞下面寫出修改后的詞。例如:
2018·棗莊中考題
假定英語(yǔ)課上老師要求同桌之間交換修改作文,請(qǐng)你修改你同桌寫的以下作文。文中共有10處語(yǔ)言錯(cuò)誤。每句中最多有兩處。錯(cuò)誤僅涉及一個(gè)單詞的增加、刪除或修改。增加:在缺詞處加一個(gè)漏字符號(hào)∧,并在其下面寫出該增加的詞。刪除:把多余的詞用“\”劃掉。修改:在錯(cuò)的詞下畫一橫線,并在該詞下面寫出修改后的詞。
注意:1.每處的錯(cuò)誤及其修改均僅限一詞。
2.只允許修改10處,超出10處不予計(jì)分。
