18 Science moves forward, they say, not so much through the insights of great men of genius as because of more ordinary things like improving techniques and tools.
错误: improving techniques and tools应该是improved techniques and tools.用过去分词或现在分词做状语时,要注意它们与被修饰名词的关系。这里讲得是被改进过的技术和工具,所以应该是improved techniques and tools而不是improving techniques and tools。
19 The shareholders as such have no knowledge of the lives, thoughts or needs of the workmen employing by the company in which he hold shares, and his influence on the relations of capital and labor are not good.
错误: employing by the company应该是employed by the company.过去分词做后置定语时,相当于一个省略了的定语从句。所以这里的employed by the company相当于who are employed by the company. he hold shares应该是they hold shares.因为这里的they指代的是The shareholders。his influence on the relations应该是their influences on the relations. Their在这里也是指代The shareholders。
20 During the discussion of rock singing verses at last months stockholders meeting, Levin assert that music is not the cause of societys ills and even cited his son, a teacher in the Bronx, New York, who uses rap to communicate with students.
错误: and并列连接两个谓语,应该是平行结构。 assert应该是asserted.
