Dear Mr White,

I heard that you are planning to invite for a famous scientist to give us a speech, so I’m writing to ask whether we can have a speech giving by Professor Martin Karplus.

Born in March 15, 1930, Professor Martin Karplus is a Austrian-born American theoretical chemist. She works as a professor of chemistry at Harvard University.

I have two reasons asking for him to give us a speech. One is that the Karplus equation is named after him, but the other is that he receives the 2013 Nobel Prize in Chemistry, together with two other colleagues.

Thank you for read my letter. I hope you can consider my suggestion serious.

Yours sincerely,

Li Hua

Answer 1

【答案】invite for去掉for

giving改为given

in 改为on

a 改为an

She改为 He

reasons后加for

but改为and

receives改为received

read改为 reading

serious 改为seriously

【解析】小题1 考查介词。固定短语invite somebody to do，邀请某人做某事，故invite for去掉for。

小题2 考查非谓语动词。have+宾语+宾补，做演讲，演讲和给出之间是被动关系，用过去分词做宾补，故giving改为given。

小题3 考查介词。表示具体某一天前面用介词on，故in 改为on。

小题4 考查冠词。马丁·卡普拉斯出生于奥地利维也纳，现为美国理论化学家。奥地利是元音开头的单词，表示一个要用an，故a 改为an。

小题5 考查代词。根据下一段的I have two reasons asking for him to give us a speech.得知马丁·卡普拉斯是一名男教授。故She改为 He。

小题6 考查介词。做某事的原因是reason for，故reasons后加for。

小题7 考查连词。两条原因，表示并列，故but改为and。

小题8 考查动词时态。根据the 2013 Nobel Prize in Chemistry得知他获得2013年诺贝尔化学奖是过去发生的事情。故receives改为received。

小题9 考查动名词。谢谢您阅读我的信件，介词后用动名词形式。故read改为 reading。

小题10 考查副词。希望您认真考虑我的建议。副词修饰动词，故serious 改为seriously。
