　　答案及解析

　　1. 删去1974前的in。时间状语是年、 月、 日的只需用一个介词； 但若是年、 月、 日、 时的， 则要用at six thirty, on the morning of May 4th, 2001。

　　2. 此行无错。

　　3. good改为well。固定词组be good at, do well in意为“在……学得很好”。

　　4. fond前加was。动词谓语残缺错误。fond是形容词， and引导并列谓语结构， 故用词组was fond of。

　　5. 删去into。动词enter是及物动词， 直接接宾语。

　　6. study前加to。此处用不定式短语作目的状语。

　　7. farther改为further。farther意为“更远的”， 表示实际距离； further意为“深远的， 进一步的”， 指抽象概念， 这里为“深造学习”， 应用further study。

　　8. get改为got。时态错误。

　　9. but改为and。根据上下文逻辑， 前后两分句为并列递进关系， 而非转折关系。

　　10. receive改为receiving。look forward to中的to为介词， 后面应接名词或动名词。

　　nodded with satisfaction. He said in firm voice, 9. _______

　　“teaching is a noble job. Man would be stupid with 10. _______

　　education.” We all agreed and were greatly encouraged by his words.

　　答案及解析

　　1. Teacher’s改为Teachers’。“……(人)的节日”一般用名词复数表泛指。如： Children’s Day, Women’s Day等。

　　2. hold改为held。此处为过去分词作定语表被动关系。

　　3. had前加who。仔细分析句子结构便可知此处应为定语从句， those或all等词后只能接who， 不能用that。

　　4. 此行无错。

　　5. 删去the。序数词前有my等形容词性物主代词时， 不需要用定冠词。

　　6. them改为him。代词指代应一致。根据下文the grey-haired teacher看出， 此处应为him。

　　7. exciting改为excited。人作主语时， 表语一般用过去分词； 物作主语则用现在分词。

　　8. devoted改为devote。根据句意可知， and后的devote应与不定式短语be teachers并列。

　　9. in后加a。in a loud/low voice为固定短语。

　　10. with改为without。介词逻辑错误。根据常识可判断， 该处想表达的原意为“没有教育， 人类将会愚昧无知”。

　　motorbike then our neighbor, Mary came out and asked 2. _______

　　him if he was going near the station. So he offered her a lift.

　　that she was from Italy, where it isn’t considering to9. _______

　　break the law when people take the side-saddle.

　　The policeman shook head and drove away.10. ______

　　答案及解析

　　1. beginning改为starting。begin和start都有“开始”的意思， 但start还可指开动机器等。该句中表示“开动， 发动”， 因此应用start。

　　2. then改为when。当前一个分句动作正在进行时， 突然又发生了另一动作， 应用连词when。

　　3. at改为on。get on为固定的动词短语， 意为“上车”。

　　4. 删去to。reach为及物动词， 其后不接介词。

　　5. matter前加the。“What’s the matter with...?”是日常生活中常用口语句型。

　　6. a改为the。这里的young lady特指上文的青年妇女， 其前应用定冠词the。

　　7. 此行无错。

　　8. ride改为rides。在when引导的时间状语从句中， 主语为第三人称单数， 谓语为一般现在时态， 也应用动词第三人称单数。

　　9. considering改为considered。在where引导的非限制性定语从句中， 主语是谓语动作的承受者， 应为被动语态。

　　10. head前加his。head为可数名词， 其前应加限定词。
