【题目】短文改错

About a month ago, I was walking alone on the beach in the evening. I have already finished my homework, and I wanted to relax. Suddenly, I saw two children stand on the beach. They seem to have found something made of metal, which was big and reddishbrown. When I took a look at it, I knew immediate that it was an old bomb! I told them to move away the bomb. Fortunately, I had a mobile phone around with me, so I called the police and told them that had been found. About 15 minutes late, the police arrived. I was praised for it but then I went home. The next day, I heard that the police had blown the bomb up. It had been on the sand for over 60 years!

【答案】

【1】have→had

【2】stand→standing

【3】seem→seemed

【4】immediate→immediately

【5】away→from或away后加from

【6】去掉around; that→what

【7】that改为what

【8】late→later

【9】but→and

【10】on→in

【解析】

试题分析:

【1】本题考查动词时态。由 “and I wanted to relax” 中 wanted 所使用的过去时可知,前面“完成我们的家庭作业”这个动作发生在 wanted 这个动作之前。表示一件事发生在过去,而另一件事先于它而发生,那么发生在前的动作要使用过去完成时,即 had already finished。故正确答案为将 have 改为 had。

【2】本题考查固定搭配。see sb. doing sth. 是指“看见某人正在做某事”,不是全过程,表正在进行。 see sb. do sth. 是指“看见某人做过某事”,是看着事情的发生全过程。此处应为“我看见两个小孩正站在沙滩上”,强调动作正在进行,用 see sb. doing sth. 的形式。故正确答案为将 stand 改为 standing。

【3】本题考查时态。由前文 “About a month ago” 可知,本文的事情发生在过去,应该使用过去时态;而本句描述的是过去的一般性动作,应用一般过去时。故正确答案为将 seem 改为 seemed。

【4】本题考查副词。动词一般用副词修饰,形容词不能修饰动词。本句应使用 immediate 的副词形式 immediately 去修饰动词 knew,意为“立即知道了...”。故正确答案为将 immediate 改为 immediately。

【5】本题考查动词短语。 move away 后可直接接名词,如 move away the desk,意为“移开桌子”,而此句中是“从炸弹旁移开”,而不是让小孩移走炸弹。move away from ... 或 move from ... 意为“从......移开”,为固定搭配,此处译为“我告诉他们从炸弹附近移开”。故正确答案为将 away 替换为 from 或在 the 之前添加 from。

【6】本题考查介词。此处表示“幸运的是,我身上有一个手机”。在“某人身上有”应该用 “with sb.”。around 意为“在......周围;大约”,在此处多余。故正确答案为把 around 去掉。

【7】本题考查宾语从句。动词 told 后是一个宾语从句,而 that 在宾语从句中不充当任何成分,故可知从句部分缺少主语。又因为从句中缺少的成分指的是 bomb,所指为物,可知此句意为“所以我打电话给警察,并告诉他们什么(what)被发现了”,由此可知,此处应由 what 引导宾语从句,且其指代被发现的东西。故正确答案为将 that 改为 what。

【8】本题考查词义辨析。late 作形容词意为“迟到的;晚的;最近的”,作副词意为“迟;最近”。later 作副词意为“随后;稍后”。根据题意,此处应为“15分钟之后”,故正确答案为将 late 改为 later。

【9】本题考查连词。根据句意可知,“我被表扬了,然后就回家了”,此处表示动作一前一后相继发生,应用 and。but 表示转折,不符合句意。故正确答案为将 but 改为 and。

【10】本题考查介词。结合上文可知,炸弹应该是埋在沙子里面(in)。on 表示“在......上”,不合文意。故正确答案为将 on 改为 in。

Washington D.C. is No.1

It is best known as a city of monument. In the middle of traffic circles or on street corners, you'll find statues, plaques (匾牌), and simple blocks of marble there. They honor the people who helped shape the US.

And on Oct. 20, Lonely Planet, one of the world's largest travel guides, named Washington D.C. the No.1 city in its list of “Best in Travel 2015”.

“The year 2015 is a fantastic year to visit Washington D.C.,” Tom Hall, editorial director of Lonely Planet, told The Guardian. “The 150th anniversary of Abraham Lincoln's assassination (暗杀) makes this year big for Washington D.C. The famous top hat of America's 16th president and the gun that fired the deadly shot will be on display. Add that to its incredible eats, performing arts and museums. The nation's capital is looking better than ever.”

There are a lot of free museums in the city. When British scientist James Smithson died in 1829, he left a will giving his money to the United States to open a museum at Washington, under the name of the Smithsonian Institution. It has turned out to be a wonderful gift, and the institution now covers 19 museums. And of course, no Washington tour is complete without seeing the White House, the Capitol, and the Supreme Court, which are home to the three pillars (核心) of the

US government. But there is more to explore in the center of the US power. It is a city you can walk across, with wideopen avenues, old neihborhoods, and river views.

And as USA_Today notes, diversity is another reason to “fall in love with the city”. “There is a lot of diversity in Washington D.C., seen in its people, its neighborhoods and its landmarks. From Chinatown to Little Ethiopia, visiting the nation's capital is like seeing the world in one trip,” said the newspaper.

【1】One of the reasons why Washington D.C. is worth a visit in 2015 is that ________.

A.food and performing arts there are much better than anywhere else in the world

B.the top hat of 15th president of America will be on show in the year 2015

C.seeing the museums will make your tour in Washington D.C. complete

D.the diversity of the city offers you an opportunity to see more in one trip

【2】Which of the following details is RIGHT according to the article?

A.The 150th anniversary of Lincoln's assassination makes the tour more worthwhile.

B.The first reason why Washington D.C. is worth a visit is that it is the capital of the country.

C.Lonely Planet decides to make Washington D.C. a mostvisited place in 2015.

D.All the museums in Washington D.C. were named after the Smithsonian Institution.

3What is USA Today according to the last paragraph?

A.A wellknown company.
