31、，所以填 were spent。2 考查连词。空后的“she was French from Canada”是“We had a language barrier”的原因， 故可填 because/as/for。3 考查连词。所填词表示转折关系，位于句首，且空后无逗号，故用表示转折意义的并 列连词 But。4 考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知，主语 I 与 sit 之间为逻辑上的主谓关系，故用 现在分词 sitting 在句中作状语表示主动关系和动作同时发生。5 考查定语从句。空处所填词引导定语从句，且在从句中作时间状语，先行词是 the time， 故用 when。6 考查词性转换之形容词变

32、动词。她让我拉绳子来“放低”梯子上她的阁楼。lower 意 为“把放低”。7 考查名词的数。some 后接可数名词的复数，故填 boxes。8 考查冠词。此处特指上文提到的“her attic(阁楼)”，应填定冠词 the。9 考查代词。所填词指代“My grandmother”，且在句中作主语，故用 She。10 考查介词。从第一段中的“a languagebarrier”，“a hearing barrier”可知，此处表示“几 乎没有说一个字”，故应填 without。.短文改错(2017· 全国)假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文，请你修改你同桌的以下作文。文中共有 1
