Last summer, I was working at home a sunny day. For some reasons I went around to the front of the house to get anything. As I did so, I feel drops of rain on my face, that soon developed into a heavy shower. A few minute later, I went to the back of the house but realized that it was not raining at all there. It was raining only at the front and not at the back. I stood in the hallway, look one way––heavy rain and the another way––sunny and dry. Soon, the rain stopped complete. Up until then, I’d never seen such a strange weather.

 

1.a前加on

2.anyting-something

3.feel-felt

4.that-which

5.minute–minutes

6.but–and

7.look –looking

8.another-other

9.complete – completely

10.去掉a

【解析】

试题分析:在去年夏天一个阳光明媚的天气里作者在家工作,由于某种原因,作者到房前拿东西,天下起了雨,慢慢变成大雨。几分钟后,作者到房子后面时发现那边一点都没下雨。不久,雨就完全停了。作者最后说这是他以前从未见过如此奇怪的天气。

1.a前加on 考查介词。a sunny day 阳光明媚的一天,指在具体某一天,应用介词on。由I was working at home a sunny day.描述可知a sunny day在此做时间状语,所以前面要加表示具体某一天的介词on。

2. 考查不定代词。anyting用于疑问句或否定句,something用于肯定句。For some reasons I went around to the front of the house to get anything.这是一个肯定句,故把anyting改为something。

3. 考查动词时态。由文章开头Last summer,以及通读全文可知都是用一般过去时态,I feel drops of rain on my face,是描述过去那一天的事情,也应用一般过去时态,故把feel改为felt。

4.that-which考查非限制性定语从句。I feel drops of rain on my face, that soon developed into a heavy shower.我感到雨滴滴到我的脸上,不久就变成一场大雨。前面主句与后面从句用逗号隔开,说明从句是非限制性定语从句。非限制性定语从句应用which来引导,that不能引导非限制性定语从句。故把that改为which。

5.minute–minutes考查名词复数。A few minute later, A few意思是“一些”,后跟可数名词的复数形式。故把minute 改为minutes。

6.but–and 考查连词辨析。I went to the back of the house but realized that it was not raining at all there.我走到房子的后面,发现那根本没下雨。went 和realized两个动作表示意思顺承,要用连词and连接,不能用表转折关系的连词but. 故把but改为and。

7.look –looking 考查动词现在分词用法。I stood in the hallway, look one way……,现在分词looking作状语,与主语I为逻辑上的主动关系,是谓语动词stood的伴随动作,表示与stood动作同时发生。故把look 改为looking。

8.another-other 考查固定短语。……one way––heavy rain and the another way…… 固定短语:one……the other…… (两者中)一个……,另一个……,在此表示房前下雨的一面和房后阳光明媚干燥的另一面,只有这两面。another指三者或三者以上的任意的另一个,表泛指。故把s another改为other。

9.complete - completely 考查副词用法。the rain stopped complete. stopped是动词,修饰动词应该用副词形式,complete是形容词,completely是副词。故把complete改为completely。

10. 考查不可数名词。I’d never seen such a strange weather. 我从未见过如此奇怪的天气。weather 天气,是不可数名词,不可数名词前不能加冠词。故去掉a。

考点:考查短文改错

Beer and fried chicken — Thanks to a South Korean drama currently on air, Man From the Stars, this new mix-and-match junk food trend has become popular among young audiences, despite its unhealthy nature. Indeed, South Korean TV dramas, or K-drama for short, have been a major force in the South Korean pop-culture wave that has captured the hearts of young Chinese audiences. According to iQiyi, a video website that features Man From the Stars, by Feb 15, the number of views for the TV drama hit 370 million in China.

“It is interesting to explore what elements of those dramas appeal to audiences. It’s obviously more than just pretty faces,” says Yan Feng, a professor of Chinese literature at Fudan University. Reflected by audiences, culture critics and insiders of the industry, youth fantasy, creative storylines, cultural proximity in East Asia, and well-organized production all add up to K-drama’s success, along with, of course, those handsome and cute faces dressed in the latest fashion trends.

“Everyone fancies a perfect partner, handsome or beautiful,” says Zhou Ying, a professor at Chongqing Technology and Business University. “The South Korean TV industry is feeding this need.” After Lee Min-ho appeared on CCTV’s annual Spring Festival gala, he became the most famous South Korean in China. Only weeks later, Kim Soo-hyun, lead actor in Man From the Stars, swept the country. Apart from pretty faces, fashion is another highlight of the series. Each time actors from the series wear a new set of outfits, similar clothes experience a sales boom online, according to Xiao Yi, a Taobao store owner.

As is known, with love triangles, incurable diseases, and Cinderella tales, storylines in South Korean dramas may seem a bit commonplace. While The Man From the Stars challenges this by putting aliens and time travel into these existing stories, Peng Sanyuan, a screenwriter, says a focus on detail is a key factor in the success of these dramas. “In order to accurately target audiences and find emotional reflections with them, more and more female writers are working in the industry,” says Peng about her experience of exchanging ideas with South Korean colleagues. According to the experts, South Korean writers somehow make sense of these plots, no matter how unlikely it seems.

1. Why has beer and fried chicken become so popular among Chinese young people at present?

A. Because the food tastes very great.

B. Because they want to change the trend.

C. Because the food is good for their health.

D. Because they are deeply affected by the Korean TV drama.

2. What’s the meaning of the underlined word “proximity” in paragraph 2?

A. similarity B. difference

C. conflict D. curiosity

3. According to the whole passage, how many elements can lead to the appeal of Korean dramas?

A. Two B. Four C. Six D. Seven

4. What makes Man From the Stars different from other K-dramas according to the last paragraph?

A. Female writers B. Creative stories

C. Pretty faces D. Fashionable clothes

 

Friends play an important part in our lives, and although we may take the fact of friendship for granted, we often don’t clearly understand how we make friends. While we get on well with a number of people, we are usually friends with only a very few. For example, the average among students is about 6 per person.

In the beginning, it much depends on how people meet, and on good first impressions. As we get to know people, we consider things like age, race, looks, economic and social status, and intelligence. Although these factors are not of the greatest importance, it is more difficult to have a good relationship with people when there is a big difference in age and background.

We pay attention to actual behavior, facial expression, and the way a person speaks. Friends will stand closer together and soft voices also express friendliness, and it is because they may give the wrong signals that shy people often have difficulty in making friends. A friendly look with the wrong facial expression can turn into an unfriendly stare, and nervousness may be wrongly understood as unfriendliness.

Some relationships are a result of argument and discussion, but it is usual for close friends to have the same ideas and beliefs, the same opinions and interests — they often talk about “being on the same wavelength”. The more closely involved people become, the more they depend on one another. People want to do friends favors and hate to let them down. Equally, friends have to learn to make allowances for each other, to put up with annoying habits, and to accept differences in opinion.

In contrast with marriage, there are no friendship ceremonies to strengthen the relationship between two people. But the mutual support and understanding that results from shared experiences and emotions does seem to create a close and lasting relationship, which can overcome differences in background, and break down barriers of age, class or race.

1.Why should we consider such things as age and background when making friends?

A. Because people of different age can’t have the same interest.

B. Because people who enjoy different social status have nothing in common.

C. Because when making friends people need know these.

D. Because differences in age and background make it difficult to make friends.

2.From the passage we know that ______.

A. we should hold ceremonies to celebrate our friendship

B. we can’t make friends with the people of different races

C. friends should understand each other

D. argument and discussion may break down the friendship.

3.According to the author, unfriendliness may be caused by ______.

A. worried expressions B. nervousness

C. different opinions D. wrong words

Elephants are trained, at an early age, not to escape. One leg of a baby elephant is tied with a rope to a wooden post planted in the ground. The rope limits the baby elephant to an area determined by the length of the rope. At first the baby elephant tries to break free from the rope, but the rope is too strong. Soon the elephant learns that he cannot break the rope in any case. This space defined by the rope becomes the elephant's comfort zone.

As the elephant grows up it could easily break the rope, but it does not even try because it was conditioned as a baby to think that it still could not break free. As a result, the large elephant remains tied and stays in a small space.

This metaphor(隐喻) can be used to describe what happens to human beings as we become trapped in a comfort zone. Just as the elephant's space determines what it can do, our comfort zone determines what we are able to achieve. Fortunately, humans are born with the ability to make conscious choices. The elephant doesn't try to break the rope free while we can easily leave our comfort zone.

In order to expand our potential and succeed in life, we must expand our comfort zone into unfamiliar fields. You will never realize what you are truly able to achieve if you remain in your comfort zone.

1. The area where the baby elephant can move around is decided by ________.

A. the space covered by the elephant

B. the length of the rope

C. the elephant’s comfort zone

D. the wooden post planted in the ground

2.The large elephant does not try to break the rope, because ________.

A. the rope is too strong

B. a wooden post is planted in the ground

C. the elephant likes the small space

D. the elephant thinks it still could not break free

3. What can be the best title for the text?

A. How to train elephants

B. A cautious elephant

C. A comfort zone

D. Expand your comfort zone

 

The arts, especially music, should be part of every school's lessons at every grade level. Students would be much smarter if they had some musical experience. They could improve their classroom skills, like paying attention and following directions. People develop all these skills when they learn music. Making music also lets children use their imagination. It provides students with a chance to try out their own ideas.

Music not only makes children better students, but also gives them something positive to do. In a music program, children can be part of a band instead of joining a gang(团伙). Parents can enjoy listening to their children's music instead of seeing them glued to a computer or TV screen. In a school band, students get to be part of a team. They can get along well with old friends and make new friends through music.

Music builds self-confidence, too. It gives children a sense of achievement and success. Making music is something for them to be proud of, and it lets kids practice performing in front of an audience. Music gives children an opportunity for self-expression, and that helps develop their self-confidence.

A. improving their classroom skills and paying attention
