16.When I lived in Spain,some Spanish friends of (61)mine( I ) decided to visit England by car.Before they left,they asked me for advice about how to find accommodation.I suggested they (62)shouldstay at"bed and breakfast"houses,because this kind of accommodation gives a foreign visitor a good chance (63)to speak(speak) English with the family.My friends accepted my advice,but they came back with some (64)funny(fun ) stories."We did not stay at bed and breakfast houses,"they said,"because we found that most families were away on holiday."It was obviously impossible.Finally I understood what (65)had happened(happen).My friends spoke little English,and they thought"VACANCIES"meant"holidays",(66)becausethe Spainish word for"holidays"is"vacancies".So they did not go to the houses with the signs outside saying"VACANCIES",which in English means there are free rooms.Then my friends went (67)directly( direct ) to the houses with the signs saying"NO VACANCIES",because they thought this meant the (68)owners( own ) of the houses were not away on holiday.But in fact,all of these houses (69)were filled(fill ) with travelers.As (70)aresult,they stayed at hotels!
分析 本文主要讲述一些西班牙人到英国去度假,因英语单词"假期"与西班牙语"假期"以及其它一些词语的理解错误而导致的一些有趣的故事.
解答 61.mine 考查代词.of是介词,后接名词性物主代词,构成名词双重所有格.
62.should 考查虚拟语气.suggest后按宾语从句时,从句谓语动词用should+动词原形,should可省略.
63.to speak 考查动词不定式.此处动词不定式作后置定语修饰chance.
64.funny 考查形容词.stories是名词,用形容词作定语修饰stories.
65.had happened 考查动词时态.happen发生在 understood之前,即"过去的过去",用过去完成时态.
66.because 考查连词.根据句意:因为西班牙语"假期"是"vacancies".用连词because.
67.directly 考查副词.go是动词,要用副词修饰.
68.owners 考查名词复数.定冠词the后接名词,且句中谓语动词were是复数,主语也应是复数形式owners.
69.were filled 考查动词时态和语态.these houses与fill之间是动宾关系,用被动语态,且事情发生在过去,用一般过去时的被动语态.
70.a 考查冠词.as a result意为"结果,因此",是固定搭配.
