短文改锗

　　Sequoia National Park at California is the home of the oldest and biggest living things. They are the fame “big trees”, the giant sequoia.

In all, there have about 70 groves of giant sequoias. Thirty two different groves stand within Sequoia National Park. The largest, the Giant Forest, contained the big trees in all stage of growth, from tiny seedlings to sky－piercing giants.

Answer 1

答案：
解析：

1．将at改为in。介词at是表示在小地方，而in表示在大地方。本句的加利福尼亚州前明显应加介词in。 　　2．fame改为famous。fame为名词，在文中为big trees的定语，应该用形容词famous。 　　3．was改为were。主语reports为复数，谓语必须也是复数。 　　4．on改为at。在底部为at the bottom。 　　5．may be改为maybe。may be与maybe区别。前者为“可能是”，作谓语。后者是副词，意思是“可能”。本句为可能之意。 　　6．have改为are。此句为there be结构。 　　7．Thirty two改为Thirty－two。检查数词的正确拼写。数词十位与个位间要加连字符。 　　8．contained改为contains。本句是表述的一个客观事实，毫无过去的味道，显然是一般现在时，不是过去时。 　　9．all改为every。文意是指“所在成长阶段”。但用all后，它后面的stage要变复数。而句中该词为单数，只能用every一词。 　　10．√。
