【解析】

试题分析:

【1】a改为an;第一句:I am a 18 year-old middle school student.18:eighteen 是一个以元音开头的单词,所以前面的冠词应为an,故将a改为an.

【2】in改为with;第二句:I have been busy in my study and seldom helped my parents with the houseworks.固定用法:be busy with sth意思是:忙于……,故将in改为with.

【3】houseworks改为housework;第二句:I have been busy in my study and seldom helped my parents with the houseworks. Housework家务,是一个不可数名词,不能加s,故将houseworks改为housework。

【4】去掉and;第三句:Feeling quite sorry for that, and I begin to think about what to do to help. and表示并列或承接关系,此句表的是因果关系,故去掉and.

【5】shop改为shopping;第四句:Last Sunday, when my parents went out shop, I suddenly got an idea: why not giving the rooms a throughout cleaning? shop是一个动词,跟在介词out后面要加ing,故shop改为shopping。

【6】giving改为give;第四句:Last Sunday, when my parents went out shop, I suddenly got an idea: why not giving the rooms a throughout cleaning? Why not…意思是:为什么不……, 后面跟动词原形,故giving改为give。

【7】both改为all;第五句:Firstly I collected both the books, newspapers and other things scattered in the rooms and put it in place. Both表示两者都…,all意思是全部的,所以的;books,newspapers and other things不可能只有两个,故both改为all。

【8】it改为them;第五句:Firstly I collected both the books, newspapers and other things scattered in the rooms and put it in place. It表示单数,them是复数;books, newspapers, other things都是复数形式,故it改为them。

【9】surprising改为surprised;第八句:At this very moment, my parents came back and were quite surprising to see all the rooms tidy and floors shining. Surprising意思是令人惊讶的(事),多用来形容事物;surprised意思是:使人感到惊讶的,多用来形容人或人的心情,此句中是表示父母很惊讶,故surprising改为surprised.

【10】see改为saw;第九句:My mother gave me a hug and I see satisfaction in her eyes.此句中的前一个句子的时态是过去时,and连接两个句子时前后句的时态要一样,所以后面一个句子也要用过去时,故see改为saw。

【题目】Modern life is comfortable. Meanwhile, it is costly. As price and building costs keep rising, the do-it-yourself (DIY) trend (趋势) in the U.S. continues to grow.

“We need furniture for our living-room,” says John Ross, “and we just didn’t have enough money to buy it. So we decide to try making a few tables and chairs.” John got married six months ago, and like many young people these days, they are struggling to make a home at a time when the cost of living is very high. The Rosses took a 2-week course for $280 at a night school. Now they build all their furniture and make repairs around the house.

Jim Hatfield has three boys and his wife died. He has a full-time job at home as well as in a shoe-making factory. Last month, he received a car repair bill for $420. “I was deeply upset about it. Now I’ve finished a car repair course. I should be able to fix the car by myself.”

John and Jim are not unusual people. Most families in the country are doing everything they can to save money so they can fight the high cost of living.

If you want to become a “do-it-yourselfer”, you can go to DIY classes. And for those who don’t have time to take the course, there are books that tell you how you can do things yourself.

【1We can learn from the second paragraph that ______.

A. many young people have difficulty building a house

B. many newly married people take DIY courses for fun

C. John and his wife make or repair things to save money

D. John and his wife build their furniture to improve the quality of life

D. The car repair class wasn’t helpful

【题目】The English language was first introduced to the Americas by British colonization, beginning in 1607 in Jamestown, Virginia. Similarly, the language spread to numerous other parts of the world as a result of British trade and colonization elsewhere and the spread of the former British Empire, which, by 1921, held sway over a population of 470–570 million people, approximately a quarter of the world's population at that time.

Over the past 400 years the form of the language used in the Americas—especially in the United States—and that used in the United Kingdom have diverged in a few minor ways, leading to the versions now occasionally referred to as American English and British English. Differences between the two include pronunciation, grammar, vocabulary, spelling, punctuation, idioms, and formatting of dates and numbers. A small number of words have completely different meanings in the two versions or are even unknown or not used in one of the versions. One particular contribution towards formalizing these differences came from Noah Webster, who wrote the first American dictionary (published 1828) with the intention of showing that people in the United States spoke a different dialect from Britain, much like a regional accent.

It may be the case that increased worldwide communication through radio, television, the Internet and globalization has reduced the tendency towards regional variation. This can result either in some variations becoming extinct (for instance, the wireless, being progressively superseded by the radio) or in the acceptance of wide variations as "perfectly good English" everywhere.

Chief among other native English dialects are Canadian English and Australian English, which rank third and fourth in the number of native speakers. For the most part, Canadian English, while featuring numerous British forms alongside native Canadianisms, shares vocabulary, phonology and syntax with American English, leading many to recognize North American English as an organic grouping of dialects. Australian English likewise shares many American and British English usages alongside plentiful features unique to Australia, and retains a significantly higher degree of distinctiveness from both the larger varieties than does Canadian English. South African English, New Zealand English and the Hiberno-English of Ireland are also distinctive and rank fifth, sixth and seventh in the number of native speakers.

【1】Which of the following native English dialects ranks fifth in the number of native speakers?

A. Canadian English

B. South African English

C. the Hiberno-English of Ireland

D. Australian English

【2】Which of the following is NOT the reason why the English language spread to numerous parts of the world?

A. British colonization

B. the spread of the former English Empire

C. British trade around the world

D. a large British population

【3】 It can be inferred from the passage that_____

A. Australian English has developed more characteristics of its own than Canadian English.

B. it is obvious that some variations will become extinct due to worldwide communication.

C. everyone will be speaking “perfectly good English” in the future.

D. almost a quarter of the world’s population spoke British English in 1921.

【4】This passage is intended __________________

A. to persuade us to speak perfectly good English in the future.

B. to draw people’s attention to the extinction of different English dialects.

C. to give the readers some useful information on variation of the English language.

D. to do a research on how the English language has influenced the world.
