A foreign student graduated with honors from a finely university in Germany. He expected to find a good job and have a bright future. But in his disappointment, he wasn't even giving the chance for an interview! The third time he was refused, he phoned the company to ask how. "We don't employ dishonest people in Germany" is the answer. What was wrong? Shortly before he arrived in Germany, he found easy to steal subway rides. But he often rode without a ticket and was caught up three times. Now he had to pay a high price for his own behavior. We should all keep in minds: honesty is the best policy.
【答案】①finely---fine ②in---to ③giving---given ④how---why ⑤is---was ⑥before---after ⑦found ^ easy---it ⑧But---So ⑨up去掉 ⑩minds---mind
【解析】第一处:finely---fine 考查形容词。Finely为副词,这里需用形容词来修饰名词university,故需将finely改为fine。
第二处:.in---to 考查固定搭配。To one's disappointment令某人失望的是,为固定短语,所以这里需将in改为to。
第三处:giving---given 考查被动语态。由 句中的wasn't可知 该句需用被动语态,表示被给机会,所以这里give需用过去分词given。
第四处:how---why 考查疑问词。该句的意思是:我打电话询问为什么在德国不雇佣诚实的人。所以这里询问的是原因,而不是方式,所以需将how改为why。
第五处.is---was 考查时态。由前文phoned可知,该句时态为一般过去时,所以这里be动词is需改为was。
第六处:before---after 考查连词。考查连词。这里的意思是:她到达德国不久后,所以需将before改为after。
第七处:found ^ easy---it 考查形式宾语。Find it +adj+to do sth发现……怎么样,所以这里需用it作形式宾语。
第八处:But---So 考查连词。该句的意思是:他发现在德国很容易逃地铁票,所以他经常不买票就上车,还被抓了三次。所以这里表示因果关系,而不是转折关系。
第九处:up去掉 考查动词。Be caught被抓住,catch up追上,赶上,这里指的是被抓住,所以需将up去掉。
第十处:minds---mind 考查短语。Keep in mind牢记,为固定短语,所以这里需将minds改为mind。
