改錯：Do you believe love is the most important? In the early twenty century, homeless people were often brought up in orphanages, in that they received little love. At one time, Dr Skeels took twelve children from an orphanage or had a young girl look them each day. He also studied another twelve children who are left in the orphanage all day long. He followed these children not until they grew up, and the results were shocked. The children staying all day in the orphanage were either dead or suffering from serious illnesses. However, the twelve children loved by the girl were all healthy and independently. The only difference between the life of these children—the love, made a great difference to us.

【回答】

【解析】1．twenty→twentieth　考查數詞。表示二十世紀，不用基數詞要用序數詞，故將twenty改為twentieth。

2．that→which　考查定語從句的引導詞。句中包含定語從句，修飾先行詞orphanages，關係詞在定語從句中作狀語，表地點，故定語從句用“介詞＋which”引導，相當於where，故將that改為which。

3．or→and　考查連詞。此處指Dr Skeels從孤兒院領出了12個孩子，並且讓一個年輕女孩照顧他們。前後句是並列關係，不是轉折，故將or改為and。

4．look後加after　考查動詞短語。此處表示照顧，是look after，故look後加after。

5．are→were　考查動詞的時態。此處指被留在孤兒院的另外12個孩子，故事發生在過去，所以用一般過去時的被動語態，故將are改為were。

6．刪除not　考查連詞。until “直到……時”，not until “直到……才”，此處指他密切關注這些孩子直到他們長大，根據句意刪除not。

7．shocked→shocking　考查形容詞。此處表示結果是令人震驚的，用shocking。

8．independently→independent　考查形容詞。此處作系動詞were的表語，和and前的形容詞healthy並列，也用形容詞，故將independently改為independent。

9．life→lives　考查名詞。此處指這些被調查的孩子的生活，用複數形式。故將life改為lives。

10．us→them　考查代詞。此處指代these children，用they的賓格，故將us改為them。
