A young couple bought a big house from two sisters, whom had lived there for 30 years. The house was nice and the couple bought it at low price.

However, winter wasn’t far away at the time. The couple was a little bit worrying about how they would keep the house warm, since it didn’t have any fireplaces. And later, they thought that if the sisters were able to stay warm and comfortably in the house during the winter, so could they. With that in mind, they decided not to make any preparations for the cold weather.

Winter arrived and temperatures soon drops below zero. The large house became freezing cold, with frost（霜）covered the walls. Finally, the husband couldn’t bear with it anymore. She called the sisters to ask them how they managed to keep warm during the winter. “The cold weather never bothered us,” one of the sister told the husband. “We just went on vacation to Thailand every winter.”

Answer 1

【答案】

【解析】这是一篇记叙文。本文主要讲了一对夫妻以低价买了姐姐的房子，冬天到了，房子里因为没有火所以很冷，最初他们认为既然姐姐都能在这个房间里过冬，他们也可以，但是最终他们受不了寒冷。

第一处：考查关系代词。Whom在定语从句中只能作宾语，不能作主语，需改为who，故将whom改为who。

第二处：考查冠词。Price为可数名词，这里指的是以低价购买，所以需用冠词a，故需在at后加a。

第三处：考查固定短语。be worried abut担心，为固定短语，而且worrying是用来修饰物的，故需将worrying改为worried。

第四处：考查连词。前一句提到他们担心房间没有火会冷，后一句提到他们认为他们的姐姐能够住的很暖和，他们也可以，前后是转折关系，and表是顺承关系，需改为but表示转折关系，故需将and改为but。

第五处：考查形容词。Stay作为连系动词，表示处于某种状态，其后需接形容词作表语，所以这里需将comfortably改为comfortable。

第六处：考查时态。本文时态为一般过去时，所以这里的谓语动词需用过去时，故需将drops改为dropped。

第七处：考查with的用法。该句是with引导的独立主格结果，frost与cover之间是主动关系，所以这里需用现在分词，故需将covered改为covering。

第八处：考查动词。这里指的是丈夫忍不了了，bear作容忍讲时为及物动词，直接接宾语，所以需将with去掉。

第九处：考查人称代词。前面主语指的是the husband，所以这里需将人称代词she改为he。

第十处：考查名词。One of后接名词复数，所以这里需将sister改为sisters。
