  However, during the Industrial Revolution, the role of the child in the labor force changed dramatically. Young children were allowed to work in many industries, including coal mines, textile mills, tobacco factories, and sweatshops. In fact, children were often the preferred type of employee. Children's pay 37was much less than adults even when they produced the same amount of work. Additionally, children could perform some tasks that 38adults could not. They replaced spinning bobs and reached into small compartments under running machines.

  Many accounts of child labor investigations describe horrific and deplorable working conditions. In mills and factories, children were forced to use dangerous equipment. After working more than twelve hours per day, 39many fatigued children were injured by the machinery. Many child laborers also faced cruel treatment by their supervisors. Children had always received discipline at home, but employers took extreme measures 40to ensure that the working of the children was happening efficiently.

  One of the most dangerous jobs for 41children were coal mining. Not only did they face the immediate danger of working underground with heavy machinery, but they also risked later damage to their lungs and skin. During the mining process, coal dust and poisonous gases were released and inhaled.

  Because mining was so dangerous, boy's had to be 42at least of age fourteen years old to work underground. However, some parents would create fake birth certificates to allow their young boys to work in the mines.

  Overall, the conditions during the Industrial Revolution were unacceptable for children. Children were missing out on education and 43worked in dangerous situations. The increase in productivity did not 44validate the harms caused to child laborers.

  (D) adults could not; replacing spinning bobs or reaching into small compartments under running machines.

  39. (A) NO CHANGE

  (B) and being fatigued, many children were injured by the machinery.

  (C) the machinery injured many fatigued children.

  (D) the machinery injured many of the children who were fatigued.

  40. (A) NO CHANGE

  答案

  37. 主語是children’s pay謂語動詞是was less than比較的對象應該也是薪水ABC的選項都是大人，和薪水無關，謂語動詞和賓語不搭配。此外B用fewer修飾不可數名詞C用復數的謂語動詞修飾單數的主語名詞都是錯誤的。

  因此D

  注意這里其實有一個指代不明的問題，選了D以后，句子修飾部分when they produced the same amount of work的they失去了指代，因為不可能是children’s pay 和 adult’s pay生產了同樣數量的工作。當然這不意味著憑借這一點我們就認為A、B、C在這里就正確了。事實上根據句意，我們可以看出這里produce the same amount of work的應該是children and adults所以這題其實四個選項都指代不明或者指代不正確。根據最優選項的原則我們只能選擇D。句子最好的表達方式

  Children earned less than adults even when they produced the same amount of work.

  因此D

  38. A選項逗號前面的句子是children，逗號后面的句子主語是they兩個完整句子如果被包含在一個句子中的話，那么應該使用連詞，否則就會犯了run-on sentences的錯誤

  B分號相當于重置了整個句子，分號后面應該是完整的句子，有主語，首字母大寫。這些條件B選項都不符合。同樣D也是如此。

  C選項中逗號后面的such as作為modifier修飾這些大人不能做但是孩子可以做的工作。

  因此C

  39. A選項正確，work和主語搭配，并且邏輯通順，孩子們疲憊導致可能受傷，真是因為自己工作了太多時間。這里為了突出孩子而不是機器，因此把動作(傷害)的承受者作為主語，不需要過分關注。

  B注意和什么成分并列，因為現在分詞being fatigued和前面的working more than twelve hours per day 平行，因此也是在after后面，after being fatigued的意思是這些孩子這個時已經不再疲倦了，不符合句意，不疲倦精神集中不會受傷。

  CD類似唯一的區別D表達啰嗦，可以直接修飾名詞的定語被轉化成從句，不簡潔。CD主要是改變了句子的主語，因為機器也是可以working more than twelve hours per day的，但是make sense并不止于此。句子說孩子工作時間太長容易疲憊被割傷，這是符合邏輯的。但是機器割傷孩子和機器運轉很長時間沒有什么關系。

  另外前后文說的都是童工的惡劣的工作環境，也有助于我們判斷句子修飾長時間工作到底是想修飾童工還是想修飾機器。

  因此A

  40. A選項表達非常奇怪，happen表示事情發生，是一種陳述，而不是強調時間點，很少加上進行時態，working 和happening并用也有句子不簡潔的感覺

  B選項表達奇怪，the working was being done重點也并非是強調工作

  C選項同樣是濫用被動語態

  D選項是正確。

  因此D

  41. A選項主語是one of 是單數名詞，謂語動詞應該用單數形式

  B選項being不能作為謂語動詞，整個句子沒有謂語

  C選項正確，符合主謂一致和時態

  D時態不正確，整個句子和上下文都在討論過去的童工，下句醒目處就有did

  因此C

  42. A選項of sixteen years old中of和old重復

  B、C、D選項都在前面的至少16歲的表達上沒有明顯的問題，相對來說D表達更加簡潔但是BC沒有錯誤沒有語義重復，而且BC的表達比較常見

  B中的不定式結構是表達一個目的表達一個結果

  CD中后面的分句都是用現在分詞，現在分詞可以表示伴隨或者表示原因，但是不適合表達結果，相對來說B要優

  因此B

  43. A選項時態沒有明顯的問題，作者討論的是工業革命時期童工的工作條件，屬于過去的事件，用一般現在時態是可以表達這個意思的。但是注意and，我們需要找到平行，平行的對象是was missing an education，因此這里應該需要一個過去進行時態來表達平行。

  B、D都不對，因為雖然是過去發生的事情，但是對于完成時態還是要慎重，首先沒有邏輯上的先后關系，也沒有時間狀語，也不存在先是在惡劣的情況下不斷工作到作者描述的那個時間段帶來了影響這樣的關系。因此不恰當。

  C選項正確，與and前面的謂語動詞保持平行，主謂一致。

  因此C

  44. A選項：證實

  B選項：證明……有理，辯護

  C選項：估價，責罵

  D選項：支持，堅定鞏固，證實

  生產力的提高并不能夠?對于兒童的傷害，C的話完全沒有關系可以首先排除

  A、D選項證實是相對來說不妥的，證實是證明存在與否，但是對于兒童的傷害是客觀存在的，而且不能夠通過生產力的提高能證明對于兒童的傷害是客觀存在的。

  B選項證明……有理是可以的，生產力提高不能證明的是對于兒童的傷害的合理性，而不是對于兒童的傷害這個事實本身。

  因此B
