Last week I went to visit to my former neighbor, Mr. Yang. He and I used to living next to each other for many years. About half a year ago, an order came which the old building , along with many other similar ones, were going to be pulled down to make room for a main street.

So I had to move apart. Mr. Yang now lives in the suburb near a beautiful park. His new

apartment is much big than before. The only problem is that it took quite a long time to get to the downtown area. Therefore, Mr. Yang doesn’t seem to worry about the long distance. He says that new subway line is to be built in a few year and he is sure life will be better in the future.

Answer 1

【答案】1. 去 to

2. living改为 live

3. which改为that

4. were改为was

5. I改为we

6.big改为bigger

7. took改为takes

8.Therefore改为However

9.new subway前加a

10.year改为years

【解析】1. 去 to. 考查介词。动词visit（参观）是及物动词，在它后边可以直接接宾语，不用介词to，故去掉 to.

2. living改为 live.考查不定式。固定搭配used to do sth.（过去常常做某事），故living改为 live.

3. which改为that.考查代词。 同位语从句，与名词an order（命令）同位，从句不缺少成分和词义，所以用that引导，故which改为that.

4. were改为was.考查动词。 连词along with 连接的两个主语，谓语动词与前边的主语一致，所以此处be要与the old building 一致，故were改为was.

5. I改为we .考查代词。 句意：所以我们不得不分开。we是指上文提到的我们俩个人，故I改为we.

6. big改为bigger.考查形容词。句意：他的新公寓比以前的更大。有than表比较级，要用形容词的比较级，故big改为bigger.

7. took改为takes.考查动词。 此处说的是一般状况，所以要用一般现在时态，took改为takes.

8. Therefore改为However.考查副词。上文说路程有点远，接来来转折了，句意：然而他并不在意这么远的距离。故 Therefore改为However.

9. new subway前加a.考查冠词。名词line （线路）是可数名词，此处用不定冠词a泛指“一条新的铁路线”，故new subway前加a.

10. year改为years.考查名词。名词year是可数名词，有a few （几，几个）修饰，要用复数形式，故year改为years.
