32、及家庭关系话题。作者讲述了自己和亲人们一起用特别的方式给其父母带来惊喜的经历。1D 上文提及父亲想要在庭院种植一棵枫树,下文提及“those big, handsome” ,故此处应是母亲也欣然同意,认为枫树很漂亮(pretty)。distinctive“与众不同的” ;fragrant“芳香的” 。2A 根据上文的“Like many other parents, mine were hard to” ,下文的“so I figured this was a great opportunity to get them something”以及接下来介绍的作者兄弟姊妹几人为父母买礼物的内容可知
33、,此处指作者觉得给父母买东西是很难的,故选shop“购物” 。3B 根据上文的“Dad mentioned hed always wanted a Crimson King Maple Tree for the yard.”及下文介绍的为父母买礼物的内容可知,此处指作者认为这是一个给父母买他们欣赏的东西的好机会。deserve“值得,应得” ;appreciate“感激,欣赏” ;advertise“为做广告” ;imagine“想象” 。4C 根据下文的“but all of my siblings(兄弟姊妹)agreed to give some money to buy the tree

43、ope Tom will come to China when its for him!convenienceconvenient第一处:考查动词的时态。根据时间状语“last week”可知,此处叙述的是过去的事情,应用一般过去时。故将 take改为 took。第二处:考查名词的复数。place of interest 意为“名胜古迹” ,其中 place是可数名词,前面有 several修饰,应用其复数形式。故将 place改为 places。第三处:考查冠词。have a better understanding of.为固定结构,意为“对有更好的了解” 。故在 better之前加 a。
44、第四处:考查形容词。luckily 是副词,意为“幸运地” ,用来修饰动词或者形容词。此处应用形容词作表语。故将 luckily改为 lucky。第五处:考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知,从句“we spent together”中缺少宾语,补充完整是:we spent the days together。when 引导定语从句时作时间状语。因此应用关系代词引导该定语从句,在从句中作宾语,故可将 when改为 that/which;当关系代词在定语从句中作宾语时,可以省略,故也可去掉 when。第六处:考查介词。动词 offer是及物动词,可直接接宾语。offer sb.sth.意为“给某人提供
45、某物” ,不需要加介词。故去掉 to。第七处:考查介词。介词 for通常后接对象,意为“为,给,对而言” ;as作介词时,意为“作为,以身份” 。此处指他给了“我”一本字典作为礼物。故将for改为 as。第八处:考查人称代词。根据语境可知,此处应用 it指代上文中提到的 a dictionary,表示单数概念。故将 them改为 it。第九处:考查副词。此处应用副词修饰动词 learn,表示学好英语。故将 good改为12well。第十处:考查形容词。此处应用形容词作表语。its convenient for sb.为固定句型,意为“对某人来说很方便” 。故将 convenience改为 convenient。
