who語法錯誤。本句是hear sh. do sth.的句式，表示“聽到有人抱怨年輕人無所事事”。此處不是定語從句修飾people，否則意思就是“我經(jīng)常聽到抱怨年輕人無所事事的人”，與上下文不符，故who是多余的，應(yīng)刪掉。
語法錯誤。此處并不是there be結(jié)構(gòu)，be likely that表示“有……可能”，that引導(dǎo)的從句是句子真正的主語，所以需要將形式主語it放在句首。
-pace→fast-paced詞匯錯誤。此處需要用形容詞修飾后面的culture，而fast-paced是由副詞加動詞過去分詞構(gòu)成的復(fù)合形容詞，表示“快節(jié)奏的”。
icant→significantly詞匯錯誤。這里significant不是用來直接修飾后面的vacation tune，而是表示程度，強調(diào)“北美人的休假時間比歐洲人少得多”，故用副詞significantly修飾形容詞less。
5.∧when→behind詞匯錯誤。leave表示“離開，留下”，在這里搭配work與上下文不符，本句意為“同一研究表明，人們很難下班后拙開工作”，這里表示“丟棄”的含義，應(yīng)該用固定搭配leave behind。
in詞匯錯誤。check in是固定詞組，表示“（在旅館、機場等）登記，報到”，此處不符合上下文語義。這里不定式前面已經(jīng)出現(xiàn)e-mail作check的賓語，表示“似乎總有電子郵件要查看”，所以check作及物動詞，表示“查看，檢查”，后毋需加介詞。
或∧easy→not語篇錯誤。根據(jù)上下文語境，前文提到“人們很難下班后拋開工作“，后一句提出“要想閑散下來需要在思想上約束自己才行”，由此可知人們想要放慢腳步，并非易事。注意uneasy的常用意思是“心神不安的，不自在的”，不要誤改為這個詞。
語篇錯誤。本句前半部分提到“（計算機）多任務(wù)處理功能和即時通訊給穩(wěn)們帶來了很多益處”，后面挺到“也造成了神經(jīng)疲憊，睡眠問題等”，從句子之問的邏輯關(guān)系來判斷，此處應(yīng)該是轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系，故將and改成but。
ndencies→dependencies語篇錯誤。本句繼續(xù)討論（計算機）多任務(wù)處理功能和即時通訊的負面影響．drug independencies表示“不依賴藥物”，顯然不屬于負面影響范疇，故改成dependencies，全句意為“造成了神經(jīng)疲憊、睡眠問題、人際關(guān)系緊張、易怒和對藥物的依賴”。
詞匯錯誤。such和so雖然在意義上相近，但本句意思是說“通過這樣做，我們會發(fā)現(xiàn)欣賞日落的好處?！贝颂幨怯脕泶嫔衔闹谐霈F(xiàn)的內(nèi)容，即we should recognize the need to be idle,而such不能替代整句話，只能用so。

都做對了嗎？雖然題目有些難度，但相信只要持之以恒，就一定會有所收獲的。
