二、短文改错
假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文,请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。文中共有10处语言错误,每句中最多有两处。每处错误仅涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。
注意:
1. 每处错误及其修改均仅限一词;
2. 只允许修改10处,多者(从第11处起)不计分。
Kate was walking in the teaching building when she slipped on the wet floor, make a mess of her coat. Thinking that the cleaner failed to do her job, so she could hardly contain her anger and began complaining about a loud voice. The cleaner stood there with an embarrassing look. As it turned out later, there was the sign“Caution! Wet Floor! ” put beside. Her face turned red.
Had she put herself into the cleaners shoe, it wouldnt ruined the nice day. Complaining simple leads to a bad mood, which may prevent us solving problems. Only when we stop complaining and taking positive action, can I have a peaceful mind and enjoy our life.

答案
语法填空
【主旨大意】每个人都抱怨交通堵塞,但是未来很可能没有交通。
1. complains。空格处描述的是目前的一种情况,故应用一般现在时态。
2. will be provided。空格处的动作尚未发生,且主语是动作的承受者,故空格处应用一般将来时的被动语态。
3. in。in one direction为介词短语,意为“朝一个方向”。
4. the。空格处之后的名词在句中表示特指,故填定冠词。
5. which。逗号之后为非限制性定语从句,且先行词指物,关系词在从句中作动词的宾语,故用关系代词which作为引导词。
6. silently。空格处在句中作状语,用于修饰现在分词moving,故填提示词的副词形式。
7. to take。根据常用短语“be ready to do sth.”可知,空格处填动词不定式。
8. various。空格处在句中作定语,用于修饰名词cities,故填提示词的形容词形式。
9. divided。此处为过去分词短语作后置定语,且与被修饰的名词highways之间是逻辑上的动宾关系。
10. cities。空前没有限定词,结合语境可知,空格处应用提示词的复数形式。
短文改错
第1处:make→making。第一段第一句中,逗号之后是非谓语动词在句中作伴随状语,且与主语是主动关系,故make改为making。
第2处:删除so。第一段第二句中,逗号之前是一个短语,而逗号之后是一个简单句,故删除连词so。
第3处:about→in。第一段第二句中,“in a loud voice”为介词短语,意為“大声地,高声地”。
第4处:embarrassing→embarrassed。第一段第三句中,修饰人体的某一部位时,用过去分词构成的形容词。
第5处:the→a。第一段第四句中,可数名词sign在句中表泛指,故之前应用不定冠词a。
第6处:shoe→shoes。第二段第一句中,shoe为可数名词,结合语境可知,此处应用复数形式。
第7处:∧ruined→have。第二段第一句中,整个句子是与过去相反的虚拟语气,故从句谓语用“would have +过去分词”。
第8处:simple→simply。第二段第二句中,leads之前应用副词simply作状语。
第9处:taking→take。第二段最后一句中,and之后的动词与之前的stop是并列谓语,故taking改为take。
第10处:I→ we。第二段最后一句中,结合上句话语境可知,逗号之后的主语I使用错误,应改为we。
书面表达
One possible version:
Dear Mr. Green,
It’s a fairly long time since you left our school. I miss you very much. Is everything going well?
The website you’ve recommended to me is very beneficial to my English study. It has abundant reading materials that I need most, greatly broadening my horizon. Now I has become more interested in English. Besides, I’ve made many new friends and we communicate a lot about school life, cultures, science, and so on. Now I can express myself much better than ever.
Thanks to your kindness and consideration, I’ve made rapid progress in English study. I owe all my achievements to you. I’m looking forward to more advice from you!
Yours,
Li Hua
