正确答案:
1.在any和infant中间加other 在比较两者的异同时,要从比较对象中排除该物或该人。
2.have改为has 此处主语为neither,故谓语动词要用单数形式。
3.pay改为draw/call/attract/elicit pay attention to注意。此处要表达“吸引注意”的意思。
4.on改为to get to one’s feet起身,站起来。
5.in risk改为in danger或at risk 这里表达“在危险中,受到威胁”的意思,没有in risk这种搭配。
6.them改为themselves 这里需要的宾语和主语they都是指代上文的young animals,故要用反身代词。
7.去掉the others指“其他人(物)中的一部分”,the others则指“其他所有的人(物)”。
8.be改为is 这里suggest意为“提出,暗示”,不作“建议”讲,因此不用虚拟语气。
9.genetic改为genetically genetically用来修饰programmed,“副词+过去分词”相当于一个形容词。
10.在such和way中加入a 名词way为可数名词单数,前面要用不定冠词。
