【解析】

【語(yǔ)篇解讀】這篇短文介紹了科學(xué)家做實(shí)驗(yàn)來(lái)證明那種動(dòng)物比別的動(dòng)物聰明�？茖W(xué)家把一只猴子放在房間里，觀察他們多久能找到食物。

第一處：根據(jù)后面的than可知，從此運(yùn)用了比較級(jí)，指“科學(xué)家做實(shí)驗(yàn)來(lái)證明那種動(dòng)物比別的動(dòng)物聰明”。故clever改為cleverer或more clever。

第二處：此處指某一間屋子里，并非特指。故the改為a。

第三處：根據(jù)后面的several boxes可知，謂語(yǔ)應(yīng)該用復(fù)數(shù)形式。故was改為were。

第四處：文章講述過(guò)去的事情，應(yīng)該用一般過(guò)去時(shí)態(tài)。故have改為had。

第五處：文章講述過(guò)去的事情，應(yīng)該用一般過(guò)去時(shí)態(tài)。故will改為would。

第六處：wait是不及物動(dòng)詞，但是其后面沒(méi)有賓語(yǔ)，所以不再加介詞for。故刪去for。

第七處：get down on one’s knees是固定搭配，指“跪下”的意思。故down后面加on。

第八處：全文看出，這是一位女科學(xué)家。故her改為his。

第九處：此處指“看進(jìn)猴子的眼睛里”，而不是看著。故at改為into。

第十處：分析句意可知，此處運(yùn)用了過(guò)去進(jìn)行時(shí)態(tài)。故looks改為looking。
