The idea of living on the moon is no long science fiction. However, there will be drawbacks to live there as well as advantage.
On the positive side, people will be able to escape from the crowding cities, but will have clear views of the earth and stars.
On the other hand, the moon is a unfriendly place for humans. First of all, people will have to wear special suits and if their equipment fails, it will probably die. Secondly, they will have to get used to be weightless. Finally, they’ll probably miss the plants and wildlife that exists on the earth.
In all, the moon might be an ideal place where humans take over a holiday or scientists carry out researches, but not a place for ordinary people to live all the time.
【答案】
【解析】
这是一篇议论文。短文阐述了在月球上生活有优点也有缺点。
第一处:考查固定短语。句意:在月球上生活的想法不再是科幻小说了。no longer “不在”为固定短语。故long改成longer。
第二处:考查名词复数。句意:然而,生活在那里有优点也有缺点。advantage为可数名词,其前无任何限定成分,所以应用advantages。故advantage改成advantages。
第三处:考查形容词。句意:从积极的方面来说,人们可以逃离拥挤的城市,并能清楚地看到地球和星星。crowded为形容词修饰名词cities。故crowding改成crowded。
第四处:考查连词。句意:从积极的方面来说,人们可以逃离拥挤的城市,并能清楚地看到地球和星星。分析句子可知,前后语意为并列关系,所以连词为and。故but 改成and。
第五处:考查冠词。句意:另一方面,月球是一个不利于人类居住的地方。 unfriendly 首字母的发音为元音因素,所以用不定冠词an来修饰。故a改成an。
第六处:考查代词。句意:首先,人们将不得不穿上特殊的套装,如果他们的设备出了问题,他们很可能会死亡。分析句意可知,这里说明的是如果人类的设备出了问题,人类很可能会死亡,所以人称代词为they。故it改成they。
第七处:考查动名词。句意:第二,他们必须习惯失重。get/be used to doing sth“习惯做某事”为固定短语。故be改成being。
第八处:考查主谓一致。句意:最后,他们可能会想念地球上存在的植物和野生动物。分析句子可知,the plants and wildlife为先行词,在后面的定语从句中作exist的主语,且定语从句为一般现在时,所以谓语动词用复数形式。故exists改成exist。
第九处:考查删除多余词。句意:总而言之,月球可能是人类度假或科学家进行研究的理想场所,但不是普通人生活的地方。take a holiday “度假”为固定短语。故去掉over。
第十处:考查增加词。句意:总之,月球可能是人类度假或科学家进行研究的理想场所,但不是普通人生活的地方。分析句子可知,动词不定式作后置定语,当不定式的动词是不及物动词,和所修饰名词搭配的介词不能省略。on the moon“在月球上”。故live后加on。
