　　文章大意

　　本文讨论的是如何减少学生放假期间的危险行为。据调查，对于放假期间的安全行为女性比男性更了解：如不喝醉。发展心理学家Patrick指出，“学生和他们朋友之间的约定成为他们假期喝酒的重要预测因素。”另外，学生春假前能够控制自己的行为，也是预测他们假期行为的一个重要因素。Patrick指出“要鼓励年轻人和他们的朋友谈论假期的安全，并且要互相监督，以免喝酒过量，这很重要。”

　　答案详解

　　1.∧many→as语法错误。此处是“倍数+as... as”同级比较结构，意为“声称与朋友都同意在放假期间不与陌生人存在危险关系的女性是男性的两倍(17%比8%)。”

　　2.∧went→who/that或went→going语法错误。此句的谓语是were，所以went应该是定语从句中的谓语，先行词students在从句中充当主语，故要用关系代词who或that引导。或者把went改为非谓语形式，因其与主语students之间是主动关系，故可以改为现在分词going。

　　3.(engage) to→in词汇错误。engage to表示“与……订婚”，而此处是指“参与过量喝酒”，engage in表示“参加”，符合文意，故将to改成in。

　　4.alcoholic→alcohol词汇错误。alcoholic作形容词，意 为“含酒精的”，此处要表达的意思是“使用酒精，喝酒”，故应该用alcohol符合语义，此处用名词alcohol作定语，相当于use of alcohol。

　　5.either→both语篇错误。此句的意思是“Patrick和同事分别在放假前和放假后对651名大一学生进行了调查。”故应该用both... and...结构，表示“两者都……”。注意，此处不可改为either...or...结构，表示二者中的一个，意为“要么……要么……”。根据下文语义，此调查要对照受试者放假前的行为和放假期间的行为，因此放假前后都应该进行调查。

　　6.after→before语篇错误。下文的strong predictor暗示此处的动作应该发生在句末的during break之前，才有可能预示假期行为，故after应改成before。此句意思是“他们要有控制学生春假前行为的能力，这是预测学生假期行为的一个重要因素。”

　　7.surveying→surveyed语法错误。此处分词作后置定语修饰college freshmen，二者之间是被动关系，故应该用过去分词surveyed，相当于从句who were surveyed。

　　8.∧being→about词汇错误。这里现在分词being safe... 并不是作伴随状语，全文的主题是如何减少学生假期的危险行为，可知此处“春假期间保持安全”应该是谈话的内容，故应加上about，talk with sb. about表示“与某人谈论……”。

　　9.protected→protective词汇错误。protected作形容词有被动的含义，意为“受保护的”，protective意为“保护的，防护的”，此处意为“有重要的保护作用”，故应改为protective。

　　10.of→of或of→that词汇错误。in case of为固定搭配，是介词短语，后接名词、动名词或代词等，in case (that)作短语连词，可以引导状语从句，其中that可以省掉，此处后面接的是句子，故应该用短语连词。
