Ⅲ.短文改错(2018吉林长春高三一模)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。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:在错的词下画一横线,并在该词下面写出修改后的词。注意:1.每处错误及其修改均仅限一词;2.只允许修改10处,多者(从第11处起)不计分。DearBill,Howtimeflies!Iwentbacktoschoolandbeginmylessonslastmonth.ItwillbetenmonthsbeforeIattendthecollegeentranceexamination,thatmakesmeworried.IfailedpasstheEnglishtestlasttermbecauseofIhaddifficultylearningEnglish.Iwillnevergiveupanddeterminetogivemyselfthesecondchancetopassthem.Iwillaskmyteachersandfriendsforadvicesonhowtoimproveitandworkoutadetailedplan.Besides,Iwillmakefullyuseoftime.Doyouhaveanygoodideas?TellmeorIwillbegratefultoyou.I’mlookingforwardtohearfromyou.Yours,LiHua答案精解精析Ⅰ.阅读理解A[语篇解读]本文是一篇记叙文。在电影界初出茅庐的作者得到了著名演员保罗·纽曼的支持,从而获得了一个重要的演出机会。他们建立了深厚的友谊,这份友谊一直持续到保罗·纽曼去世。推理判断题。根据第一段中的“itwantedsomebodyaswellknownasPaul”可知,这家电影公司不想把这个角色给作者,是因为他们想把角色给像保罗这样出名的人,作者还不够出名,所以答案为C项。细节理解题。根据第二段中的“BothofushadthequalitiesandvirtuesthataretypicalofAmericanactors”可知,保罗和作者之所以有着长久的友谊,是因为他们两个人有着相似的品质,所以答案为D项。词义猜测题。根据本段第一句话“Wesharedthebeliefthatif...”可知,尽管他们不经常见面,但是正是那种信念让他们聚在了一起。由此推断出画线单词指的是他们的共同的信念,所以答案为A项。推理判断题。文章开头作者介绍了自己与著名演员保罗·纽曼相识的情景,后面描述了两人的交往和深厚的友谊。最后一段指出两人的最后一面是在医院。由此推断出作者写这篇文章就是为了纪念自己的一位朋友。所以答案为B项。B[语篇解读]一种文化的价值能通过其幽默感表现出来。本文作者介绍了自己对幽默的看法,并决定用幽默的态度来面对生活。细节理解题。根据文章第一段可知,ThomasHobbes不喜欢幽默,并从他的话中“Laughterisnothing...betterthanothers.”可知,应选择A。推理判断题。根据文章第三段中的“Withouthumor...wayoflemming?”及“Theymakepoliticsfun.”可知,作者对于政治幽默持赞赏的态度。appreciative“欣赏的,赏识的”。推理判断题。根据文章第四段的内容可知,作者是通过举例子来支撑自己的观点的,因此选择A。推理判断题。根据文章的最后两段可知,尽管生活有时候会很艰难,但仍然有连卓别林都没有意识到的幽默,要记得用幽默的态度来面对生活,故选择D。Ⅱ.语法填空[语篇解读]本文为记叙文。文章主要讲述了一个领主的女儿在诗歌大赛上被一位温文尔雅的英俊男子吸引并与他结婚的故事。1.in诗人们从各地赶来参加诗歌大赛。一年,一位非常英俊的年轻男子赢得了比赛。根据时间状语Oneyear可知空格处使用一般过去时。他拒绝透露自己的名字,但是他文雅的举止使他成了最受喜爱的人物。空格前后构成转折关系,故使用连词but。4.wasinvited动词invite与主语he构成被动关系,根据本句中的made可知此处用一般过去时。故填wasinvited。5.tomarry领主的女儿爱上了他并恳求他娶她。begsb.todosth.为固定搭配,意为“恳求某人做某事”。他们结婚后的早上,她醒来后发现自己在一个漂亮的宫殿里。设空处修饰后面的名词marriage,故使用形容词性物主代词their。空格前后的名词均使用了复数形式,故设空处使用jewels“珠宝首饰”。“这些都是你的,”她的丈夫说,“但是不要忘记你的许诺。”但是渐渐地她抑制不住自己的好奇心了,因为有时他会消失在她不被允许进入的房间里。设空处用副词作状语,故填gradually。本题考查固定短语。e
