答案精解精析
1.课文与语法填空
1.predictions 考查词性转换。Making后跟名词形式,且prediction为可数名词,故用复数形式。 2.that 考查名词性从句。that引导表语从句时,无词义不作成分。 3.natural 考查词性转换。修饰名词时应用形容词形式。 4.the 考查冠词。in the future在将来。
5.whichthat 考查定语从句。先行词为things,定语从句中关系词作主语,因此用whichthat。
6.will be given 考查动词的时态和语态。此处叙述人们的想法,因此应用一般将来时,everyone与give之间为被动关系,故用一般将来时的被动语态。
7.shopping 考查固定搭配。do the shopping购物。 8.to place 考查非谓语动词。此处不定式短语作后置定语。 9.of 考查介词。thousands of成千上万的。
10.attached 考查非谓语动词。cameras与attach之间为被动关系,故用过去分词。
2 课文与短文改错
1.第一句:去掉are 考查固定短语。come true成为现实,故are多余。
2.第二句:prediction→predictions 考查名词的单复数。prediction为可数名词,根据are可知此处应为复数形式。
3.第二句:that→which 考查定语从句。非限制性定语从句中关系词作主语,故应为which。 4.第三句:says→said 考查动词时态。根据in 1908可知应用一般过去时。
5.第四句:worn→wearing 考查动词的时态。根据Thirty years from now可知此处应用将来进行时。 6.第五句:easy→easily 考查副词。修饰动词应用副词形式。
7.第五句:it→them 考查代词。此处指代The clothes,故应改为them。
8.第六句:making→made 考查非谓语动词。prediction与make之间为被动关系,故应用过去分词短语作后置定语。
9.第七句:第一个on→in 考查介词。in progress正在进行,在发展中。
10.第七句:第二个moon前加the 考查冠词。表示世界上独一无二的事物前必须用定冠词。
