Question

Dear Peter,

         I’m very glad to receive your e-mail asking for information about the host family we have arranged﹀you to stay with．

         Locating in a beautiful and quiet neighborhood, the house was big enough to enable you to have a room of your own．Apart from the convenient public transportation, our private car will make your visits difficult．Because all the family members can speak fluently English and have outgoing personalities, I’m sure you will have no trouble to communicating with them．Above all, they hosted the American student last year, through that they gained lots of experience．In addition, the hostess cooking will guarantee you a wonderful chance of tasting delicious Chinese food．

Hope you enjoy your stay here.

Yours,

Li Hua

【解析】

试题分析：文章讲述了“我”为一名即将到来的留学生介绍要寄宿的这个家庭的基本情况，从住，行，吃等各个方面做了详细的解释。

 加for 固定短语的考查。arranger for sb to do sth是一固定短语，故答案为加for.

 locating—located 分词的用法。be located in/at 坐落于----，此处应用过去分词作状语。故应为located.

 was—is 时态的用法。文章是在介绍这个家庭的基本情况，故应为一般现在时。故应改为is.

 our—their 代词的用法。文章是“我”在为留学生介绍他所寄宿的家庭的情况，下文照应的是第三人称，故答案应为their。

 difficulty--easy 文意的理解。寄宿家庭的车应是为交通提供了方便，所以我的旅行应是容易，故应为easy。

 fluently--fluent 词性的考查。修饰English应用形容词。

 去掉to或变为in 固定短语的考查。have no trouble (in) doing sth, 做某事儿没有困难，故应去掉to或者是改为in.

 the--an 冠词的用法。去年这个家庭寄宿了一名美国学生，指数量“一”。故答案应为an.

 that—which 定语从句的考查。在定语从句中，前面有介词的时候应用which.

 hostess—hostess’ 名词所有格的考查。 这里指女主人的厨艺，是名词所有格的用法。
