I am writing to ask for whether you are able to do me a favor. I want to have a pen pal, hopefully a girl in the early twenties, and with interests similarly to mine. In my mind, he is someone interesting in traveling, swimming, and playing table tennis. Beside, it will be better for her to have a pet dog as I have been keeping one at home for some time. With such pen pal, I hope I can share with her my experiences in traveling, taking care of pets, or whichever we have in common. I believed I will improve my English by doing so and learning more about her country. I am looking forward to hearing from you soon.

 

1.去掉for

2.he –her

3.similarly—similar

4. he—she

5.interesting—interested

6.Beside—Besides

7.such后加a

8.Whichever—whatever

9.believed—believe

10.learning--learn

【解析】

试题分析:

1.去掉for 动词ask的后面可以直接加宾语从句,介词for是多余的。动词短语ask for后面通常接sth做宾语。

2. the –her 固定搭配in one’s twenties在某人20多岁时;这个结构里应该使用所有格的形式,而不是定冠词the。

3.similarly—similar 本句中应该使用形容词短语similar to mine来修饰前面的名词interests。Similarly是副词,英语中通常不使用副词修饰名词。

4.he—she 上下文串联。前面一句中提到a girl,是一个女性,所以使用she而不是he。

5. interesting—interested 本句考查的是形容词固定搭配be interested in……对……感兴趣;使用interested in traveling修饰前面的名词someone。

6.Beside—Besides beside是一个介词,表示“在……旁边”;而besides是一个副词,表示“此外,而且”。根据句意可知上下文是递进关系,所以使用besides,相当于in addition.

7. such后加a 当such后面的名词是可数名词时,可以在名词前面加不定冠词a/an;如such a fine day。本句表示有这样的笔友。

8.Whichever—whatever 本句中的whatever在句中作为动词have的宾语,whatvenr没有任何的范围限制。而whichever是指特定范围之内的某一个。

9.believed—believe 本文的基本时态是一般现在时,陈述的是现在的观点和情况,所以本句使用believe。

10.learning—learn 本句中的learn与前面的动词improve是并列结构,所以都使用一样的动词原形。

People aren’t walking any more--- if they can figure out a way to avoid it.

I felt superior about this matter until the other day I took my car to mail a small parcel. The journey is a matter of 281 steps. But I used the car. And I wasn’t in any hurry, either, I had merely become one more victim of a national sickness: motorosis.

It is an illness to which I had thought myself immune, for I was bred in the tradition of going to places on my own two legs. At that time, we regarded 25 miles as good day’s walk and the ability to cover such a distance in ten hours as a sign of strength and skill. It did not occur to us that walking was a hardship. And the effect was lasting. When I was 45 years old I raced –and beat—a teenage football player the 168 steps up the Stature of Liberty.

Such enterprises today are regarded by many middle-aged persons as bad for the heart. But a well-known British physician, Sir Adolphe Abrhams, pointed out recently that hearts and bodies need proper exercise. A person who avoids exercise is more likely to have illnesses than one who exercises regularly. And walking is an ideal form of exercise--- the most familiar and natural of all. It was Henry Thoreau who showed mankind the richness of going on foot. The man walking can learn the trees, flower, insects, birds and animals, the significance of seasons, the very feel of himself as a living creature in a living world. He cannot learn in a car.

The car is a convenient means of transport, but we have made it our way of life. Many people don’t dare to approach Nature any more; to them the world they were born to enjoy is all threat. To them security is a steel river thundering on a concrete road. And much of their thinking takes place while waiting for the traffic light to turn green.

I say that the green of forests is the mind’s best light. And none but the man on foot can evaluate what is basic and everlasting.

1.What was life like when the author was young?

A. people often walked 25 miles a day

B. People usually went around on foot.

C. People used to climb the Statue of Liberty.

D. people considered a ten-hour walk as a hardship.

2.The author mentions Henry Thoreau to prove that ________.

A. middle-aged people like getting back to nature

B. people need regular exercise to keep fit

C. walking in nature helps enrich one’s mind

D. going on foot prevents heart disease

3.What is compared to “a steel river” in Paragraph6?

A. A ray of traffic light B. A queue of cars

C. A flash of lightning D. A stream of people

4.What is the author’s intention of writing this passage?

A. To encourage people to return to walking.

B. To recommend people to give up driving

C. To advise people to do outdoor activities.

D. To tell people to reflect more on life.

Bananas are one of the world’ s most important food crops. They are also one of the most valuable exports. Bananas do not grow from seeds. Instead, they grow from existing plants. Bananas are threatened by disease because all the plants on a farm are copies of each other. They all share the same genetic weaknesses. For example, the Cavendish banana is most popular in North American and European markets. However,some kinds of fungus organisms easily infect the Cavendish. Black Sigatoka disease affects the leaves of Cavendish banana plants. The disease is controlled on large farms by putting chemicals on the plant’ s leaves. Farmers put anti-fungal chemicals on their crops up to once a week.

Another fungal disease is more serious. Panama disease attacks the roots of the banana plant. There is no chemical treatment for this disease. Infected plants must be destroyed. Panama disease has affected crops in Southeast Asia, Australia and South Africa. There is concern that it may spread to bananas grown in the Americas. This could threaten an important export product for Central and South America.

The International Network for the Improvement of Banana and Plantain supports research on bananas. The group has headquarters in France and other offices in the major banana-growing areas of the world. The group says that more research must be done to develop improved kinds of bananas. The group says that fungal diseases mainly affect only one kind of banana. In fact, there are five hundred different kinds of bananas. Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations has said that the Cavendish banana represents only 10% of world production.

The U.N. agency says farmers should grow different kinds of bananas. This protects against diseases that affect only one kind. Experts warn that disease may cause the Cavendish banana to disappear. This happened earlier to another popular banana because of its genetic weakness against disease.

1.What does this passage mainly tell us?

A. Bananas are the world’ s most important food crops.

B. The risk to a popular banana shows need to grow other kinds.

C. There are five hundred different kinds of bananas.

D. How to grow bananas in different countries.

2.Bananas are threatened by disease because ________.

A. they grow from seeds

B. they are one of the most valuable exports

C. the only way to prevent it is to put chemicals on their leaves

D. they have genetic weaknesses against disease

3.Panama disease________.

A. doesn’t belong to fungal disease

B. affects the leaves of banana plants

C. destroys bananas more seriously than Black Sigatoka disease

D. has spread to bananas all over the world

4.We can infer from Paragraph 3 that ________.

A. the center of the group is in the US

B. the Cavendish banana covers only a small part of the yield of bananas

C. the key to solving the disease is to research all kinds of bananas

D. each fungal disease affects five hundred different kinds of bananas

5.According to the passage, which information is right?

A. The Cavendish banana can mainly be imported from North America and Europe.

B. Panama disease affects the leaves of Cavendish banana plants.

C. The Cavendish banana won’t die out in the future.

D. The Cavendish banana makes up only one tenth of world production.
