When I was in kindergarten,I swallowed the black seeds while eat watermelon.My teacher once told me what a watermelon would grow in my stomach if I ate the black seeds by an accident.I was very frightened that I started crying.When I tell my mom and dad about the black seeds,she laughed at me.Because that,I was always afraid to eat watermelon until I was about eight year old.To this day,whenever I get watermelon with any black seeds,I will spit them out even that I know it's possible for a watermelon to grow in my stomach.

分析 本文主要讲述作者小时候的一件趣事.一次偶然吞下了一些西瓜籽,便担心西瓜会在胃里生长,因为老师这样说过.后来,即使知道西瓜不可能在胃里生长,也要吐出黑色的西瓜籽.

解答 When I was in kindergarten,I swallowed the black seeds while eat watermelon.My teacher once told mewhat a watermelon would grow in my stomach if I ate the black seeds by an accident.I was very frightened that I started crying.When I tell my mom and dad about the black seeds,she laughed at me.Because∧that,I was always afraid to eat watermelon until I was about eight year old.To this day,whenever I get watermelon with any black seeds,I will spit them out even that I know it's possible for a watermelon to grow in my stomach.
详解:
1.eat改为eating 考查现在分词.I与eat之间是主谓关系,用现在分词短语作状语.
2.what改为that或去掉what 考查连词.宾语从句a watermelon would grow in my stomach是完整的,用连词that连接或去掉what.
3.去掉an 考查固定搭配.by accident意为"偶然地",是固定搭配.
4.very改为so 考查固定搭配.so…that…意为"如此/这么…以致于…",句型中的so是副词,常常用来修饰形容词或副词,常用句型为:主语+谓语+so+adj./adv.+that从句.
5.tell改为told 考查动词时态.全文讲述的是过去的事情,用一般过去时态.
6.she改为they 考查代词.they指代my mom and dad.
7.加of 考查词语用法.because of意为"因为",是介词短语,后接名词或代词作宾语;because意为"因为",是连词,后接句子.此处用介词,因为后面接的是代词that.
8.year改为years 考查名词复数.years old意为"…岁(指年龄)",当其前的数词修饰语大于一时用复数形式.
9.that改为though/if 考查连词.even though/if意为"即使,纵然",是固定搭配.
10.possible改为impossible 考查形容词.根据句意:我知道西瓜不可能在我的胃里生长.用形容词impossible.

点评 高考短文改错题的形式有说明文,短文故事,书信等,具有很强的实用性.短文的内容和语言都符合高中学生的实际,从表面上看类似一篇学生习作.首先,通读全文,了解短文大意,把握全篇的时态、人称及行文逻辑,在通读全文时把一些容易的错误先改好,再进行逐句改错.其次,要进行逐个句子的改错.这是要对文中的词法、句法和语篇着重分析和特别注意.最后把改好的短文再阅读一遍,检查答案是否正确,感觉是否还有不妥之处,最终形成定稿.

1.I was desperately nervous about becoming car-free.But eight months ago our car was hit by a passing vehicle and it was destroyed.No problem,I thought:we'll buy another.But the insurance payout didn't even begin to cover the costs of buying a new car-I worked out that,with the loan we'd need plus petrol,insurance,parking permits and tax,we would make a payment as much as£600 a month.
And that's when I had my fancy idea.Why not just give up having a car at all?I live in London.We have a railway station behind our house,a tube station 10 minutes'walk away,and a bus stop at the end of the street.A new car club had just opened in our area,and one of its shiny little red Peugeots was parked nearby.If any family in Britain could live without a car,I reasoned,then surely we were that family.
But my new car-free idea,sadly,wasn't shared by my family.My teenage daughters were horrified.What would their friends think about our family being"too poor to afford a car"?(I wasn't that bothered what they thought,and I suggested the girls should take the same approach.)
My friends,too,were astonished at our plan.What would happen if someone got seriously ill overnight and needed to go to hospital?(an ambulance) How would the children get to and from their many events?(buses and trains) People smiled as though this was another of my mad ideas,before saying they were sure I'd soon realize that a car was a necessity.
Eight months on,I wonder whether we'll ever own a car again.The idea that you"have to"own a car,especially if you live in a city,is all in the mind.I live-and many other citizens do too-in a place that has never been better served by public transport,and yet car ownership has never been higher.We worry about rising car costs,but we'd be better off asking something much more basic:do I really need a car?Certainly the answer is no,and I'm a lot richer because I dared to ask the question.

6.How Can I Fight Laziness?
Lazy people will never gain anything in life.However,laziness can be defeated once a few changes have been made in your mind.
(36)CMany people lack sleep constantly,since they stay up too late and get up too early to prepare for work.These people have little motivation once they arrive home.Laziness works hand in hand with a lack of motivation and a tendency to put off things.By adjusting your sleep schedule to provide a few more hours of meaningful rest,you can fight laziness throughout the day.
Another way to fight laziness is to change your mind from passive to active.Some people treat their lives as if they were pushed from task to task.Others take a more positive approach,viewing each task as a challenge they must overcome alone.(37)F
Some people fight laziness by removing the temptations(诱惑) that surround them.A television in the living room may provide entertainment,but watching too much TV often contributes to laziness.(38)GComplete a few tasks and reward yourself with what you enjoy,such as a good dinner or a film.
Laziness can also be a lasting problem at home.Couples and children may all have different energy levels,but laziness can be spread if not dealt with immediately.(39)ABe the first to collect and wash dishes after a meal.Others in the home may eventually follow your example and perform their own task.It is difficult to practice laziness when you are surrounded by motivated people.
(40)DEnough exercise and a balanced diet can help you to develop a healthy lifestyle,thus enabling you to have more energy and help lift your spirits.

A.To fight family laziness,set an example.
B.Knowing how to fight laziness is important.
C.One way to fight laziness is to get enough sleep.
D.Finally,taking exercise regularly can help you fight laziness.
E.With strong determination,you will be able to achieve your goal.
F.Laziness appears when you no longer feel in charge of your own mind.
G.Create a reward system for yourself,just as parents do for a child.

Naturally the villagers became (46)Aand soon a fire was put to the villagers greatest pot as the soldiers carefully (47)B three stones."Now this will be a fine soup."said the second soldier."(48)Dsome salt and parsley (西芹) would make it more wonderful!"A woman(49)C,crying "What luck!I remember I've got some at home!".Off she ran,(50)Awith a handful of parsley.As the pot boiled on,carrots,beef and cream had soon (51)Ctheir way into the pot before everyone set out to(52)B.
The soldiers ate and danced and sang well into the night,(53)Aby the meal and their (54)B ends.The next morning,they awoke to (55)D the entire village standing before them with their best bread and cheese."You have given us the greatest (56)C"said an elder,"and we shall never forget it."The third soldier turned to the (57)A,and said,"There is no secret but one thing is (58)D:it is only by (59)B that we may make a feast".And off the(60)Dwandered,down the road to their next destination.

8.The next time you go into a bank,a store,or a supermarket,stop and listen.What do you hear?(36)CIt is similar to the music you listen to,but it's not exactly the same.That's because this music was especially designed to relax you,or to give you extra energy.Sometimes you don't even realize the music is playing,but you react to the music anyway.Quiet background music used to be called"elevator music"because we often heard it in elevators,but lately we hear it in more and more places,and it has a new name muzak.About one-third of the people in America listen to Muzak every day.The music plays for 15 minutes at a time,with short pauses in between.It is always more lively between ten and eleven in the morning,and between three and four in the afternoon,when people are more tired.(37)B
    If you listen to Muzak carefully,you will probably recognize the names of many of the songs.Some musicians or songwriters don't want their songs to be used as Muzaks,but others are happy when their songs are chosen,Why?(38)F
Music is often played in public places because it is designed to make people feel less lonely when they are in an airport or a hotel.It has been proven that Muzak does what it is designed to do.Tired office workers suddenly have more energy when they hear the pleasant sound of Muzak in the background.(39)D Supermarket shoppers buy 38 percent more groceries.
(40)AThey say it is boring to hear the same songs all the times.But others enjoy hearing Muzak in public places.They say it helps them relax and feel calm.One even say their cows give more milk when they hear Muzak!
