My friend Henry has a very unusually hobby. He likes planting the flowers in strange places. It has been 20 years before he began to do it. When spring comes round, you can always see Henry is busy working but the dirty railway banks suddenly become filled with flowers. In his spare time, with his pockets full of seeds, Henry goes round on bike. He has a long pipe (管子) with him blow the seeds into those places that is hard to reach. When his flowers died, he goes round again to collect its seeds. For Henry there can never be a good way than this to get enough seeds.

Answer 1

【答案】1.. unusually→unusual

2.去掉 the

3. before→since

4.but→and

5. on—by/在 bike 前加 his 或 a

6.在 him 后加 to

7. is→are

8.died→die

9. its→their

10.good→better

【解析】作者讲述了朋友Henry特殊的爱好，到处种花和搜集花籽。真所谓是走到哪种到哪。

1.unusually →unusual.考查形容词。此处修饰名词hobby用形容词，指不寻常的爱好，故unusually →unusual.

2.去掉the.考查冠词。句中flowers是泛指，此处表示种花，不用冠词。故去掉the.

3. before →since.考查连词。此处指自从他开始这样做已经20年了，表示自从，用since与完成时连用，故before →since.

4.but→and.考查连词。句意：春天的时候Henry开始忙着种花，然后脏的铁路沿岸就突然开满了花。前后句是顺承关系，不是转折。故but →and.

5. on →by/bike前加his或a.考查介词。表示“骑自行车”是by bike或on a/ one’s bike，故on →by/bike前加his或a.

6.在him后加to.考查不定式。他随身携带管子，用管子把花籽吹到够不到的地方。此处是不定式表目的，故在him后加to.

7. is →are.考查主谓一致。此处that引导的定语从句修饰先行词those places，先行词是复数，与之一致谓语也用复数，故is →are.

8.died→die.考查动词时态。与主句时态一致，时间状语从句表示事实用一般现在时，故died →die.

9. its →their.考查代词。此处his flowers是复数，与之一致，指花们的种子，代词也用复数。故its →their.

10.good→better.考查比较级。根据句中than可知用比较级，指比这更好的方法，故good →better.
