up

withouthesitationnexttime.71.the改成an考查冠词。昨天我在匆忙上学的路上看见一个老太太跌倒。这里是泛指“一个老太太”，the改成an72.while改成when考查连词。beabouttodo…when…，刚要做…这时…73.stop改成stopped考查动词的时态。因为讲述的是昨天的事情，所以用一般过去式：stop改成stopped74.Heard改成Hearing考查非谓语动词。听到这个话，我开始犹豫，放慢步伐。这里用现在分词做状语：Heard改成Hearing75.that改成who考查定语从句。同时，看见一切发生的另外一名学生上去帮忙。这里是非限制性定语从句，不能用that改成who76.thank改成thanks考查介词短语。老太太除了感谢这个男孩，什么也没有说。我感到很羞愧。Thank一般用复数，改成thanks77.help改成helping考查非谓语动词。帮助别人永远是美德。这里是动名词做主语：help改成helping78.immorally改成immoral考查形容词。即使一些老人不道德；用形容词做表语：immorally改成immoral79.去掉to

考查动词短语。Letsbdosth，用省略to的不定式80.made后面加up考查动词短语。Madeupone’smind“下定决心”20.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。错误涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。增加：在缺词处加一个漏字符号(∧)，并在其下面写出该加的词。删除：把多余的词用斜线(\)划掉。修改：在错的词下划一横线，并在该词下面写出修改后的词。注意：1.每处错误及其修改仅限一词；2.只允许修改10处，多者（从第11处起）不计分。DearJanice,It’sbeenamonthsinceIcametothisnewschoolandIreallywantsharewithyousomeproblems.AsItellyoulasttime,Imadethreenewfriendhere.We’vebeenspendingalotoftimesinginkaraokebars.It’sbeenthreeSaturdaysnowanditreallycostsmemanymoney.AndIstartedtoseethisasatime-wastingactivity!Infact,Idon’tliketogoanymore,soI’mafraidI’lllosetheirfriendship.HowdoyouthinkIshoulddo?Ifyouareme,wouldyoutalktohim?Pleasehelpwithmeandgivemesomeadvice.Yours,Grace参考答案：DearJanice,It’sbeenamonthsinceIcametothisnewschoolandIreallywant∧sharewithyousome

withYours,Grace本文属于记叙文阅读，叙述了Grace在新的学校里遇到了交友方面的问题，写信给Janice征求意见。【小题1】want后加上to。考查固定搭配。动词搭配wanttodosth.，意为“想要做某事”。句意：我来这所新学校已经一个月了，我真想和你分享一些问题。【小题2】tell→told。考查时态。本句的时间状语是lasttime，这是一个一般过去时的时间状语，所以谓语动词要用told。【小题3】friend→friends。考查名词单复数。数词three后面的可数名词要使用复数形式。【小题4】sing→singing。考查固定句式。句式spendsometime(in)doingsth.，意为“花费时间做某事”。【小题5】many→much。考查形容词。many修饰可数名词复数，much修饰不可数名词。本句中的money是不可数名词，故要用much修饰。【小题6】so→but。考查连词。句意：实际上，我再也不想去那里了，但是我担心我会失去他们的友谊。根据句意可知，上下文之间存在转折关系，所以使用连词but表示转折，连词so表示上下文的因果关系。【小题7】How→What。考查特殊疑问词。本句中what是一个特殊疑问词，在句中充当动词do的宾语，how属于疑问副词，不能作主语或宾语。【小题8】are→were。考查虚拟语气。本句实际上是if引导的条件句的虚拟语气，表示与现在事实相反，从句使用一般过去时were，主句使用“情态动词+动词原形”。句意：如果你是我，你会和他们谈吗？所以本句应该使用过去式were。【小题9】him→them。考查代词。根据本段第一句AsItellyoulasttime,Imadethreenewfriendshere.（我交了三个朋友），所以本句使用them指代threenewfriends。【小题10】去掉help后面的with。考查动词。动词help构成短语helpsb.withsth.或helpsb.(to)dosth.帮助某人某事/帮助某人做某事，所以本句中的with是多余的。考点：考查时态、固定搭配、形容词、代词等语法知识
