70、 need”中的 need 缺少宾语;句子可以表示为“Thats exactly all that I need”,all that 可转换成复合关系代词 what。填入 what。46to have【解析】考查不定式。句子的主语 he 和 have 是逻辑上的主谓关系,have alook at the house 在句中表示安排第二天乘火车去的目的,要处理成不定式to have a look at the house,作目的状语。填入 to have。47took【解析】考查动词不定式。根据“The house agency met him at thestation and they s
71、tarted walking.It(take)them at least 15 minutesto get to the house.When they finally arrived”可知,take 前后的句子都是一般过去时,动词 met、started 和 arrived 都是过去式,take 和前后的动词时态一致,使用过去式 took。填入 took。48angrily【解析】考查副词。句意:布朗先生生气地说。修饰说的动作应该使用 angry的副词形式 angrily 作状语。填入 angrily。49interested【解析】考查过去分词。be interested to do so
72、mething 意为“对做某事感兴趣”,指具体的一件事。如,I am interested to go there(我对去那儿感兴趣)。be interested in doing something 意为“对经常做的事情感兴趣”,指一种习惯。如,I am interested in collecting stamps(我对集邮感兴趣).填入 interested。50the【解析】考查定冠词。句意:布朗先生生气地说:“我很想去见一下你在那份报纸上提到的那个扔石头的男子”。此处的 newspaper 是特指的,前面应加上定冠词 the。填入 the。【备注】广告里说的离火车站一箭之遥(a st
73、ones throw)的房子走了至少十五分钟才到达,这让布朗先生非常生气。布朗先生暗含讽刺地告诉房屋中介,他想去看看那个投石头的人(a stones throw 有“投石之距离”的意思),看看谁能把石头投出那么远的距离,需要步行走上至少十五分钟!51.My parents and I went to the parkon去掉 onlast Sunday.There were lotsof visitorsstoodstandingin front of the ticket window.We waited for a longtime andbuyboughtthree tickets.In

75、panions.Worsestill,I had no money,so I had to walk home,coveredcoveringas much as 5kilometers.【解析】第一处:去掉 last Sunday 前的 on。正常情况下,on 用在“on+星期几”结构中,如,on Sunday。但是,由“this/next/last+时间名词”构成的短语,如 last Sunday,this week,next month 等,在句子中作时间状语时,前面不需要加介词 on 或 in 等。第二处:stood 改成 standing。在“There were lots of v
76、isitors stood in frontof the ticket window.”句中,There were lots of visitors 是倒装形式主谓结构,lots of visitors 是主语,there were 是谓语;存在着主动关系的 lots ofvisitors 和 stand 只能是逻辑上的主谓关系,stand 只能作非谓语动词,要转换成现在分词 standing 作定语。第三处:buy 改成 bought。and 属于并列连词,前后的动词在时态上要保持一致,waited 和前文的时间状语 last Sunday 相符,buy 和 waited 保持一致,改成 b
77、ought。第四处:too 改成 so。句意:我如此急切地要去看凶猛吓人的老虎以致我在人群中加快了步伐。“that I quickened my steps through the crowd.”是结果状语从句,根据结构“sothat”(如此以致)可知,that 前要对应地使用副词 so,来修饰形容词 eager,而不能使用 too。第五处:frightened 改成 frightening。frightened 意为“感到害怕的”,一般修饰人或以人作主语;frightening 意为“令人害怕的,令人恐惧的”,一般修饰物或以物作主语。表示令人感到害怕的动物(animals),应使用frigh
78、tening。第六处:Unfortunate,改成 Unfortunately。句意:不幸地,我和我父母分开了。表示“不幸地,不幸的是”,应使用副词 unfortunately,作状语,修饰整个句子。第七处:had 后面加 a。短语“have+a+形容词+time”意为“度过一段的时间”,如,have a good time,have a difficult time 等。表示“度过一段困难的时间”,应该用“have a hard time”。第八处:him 改成 them。前文已提到 my parents,此处要使用表第三人称复数的宾格代词 them。第九处:alone 改成 lonely。
79、alone 意为“独自的(地)、单独的(地)”,侧重于说明独自一人,指客观情况;lonely 意为“孤独的,寂寞的”,带有浓厚的感情色彩。表示“感到孤独的”,应使用“feel lonely”。第十处:covered 改成 covering。I 和 cover 之间是逻辑上的主谓关系,应使用 cover 的现在分词形式 covering,和 as much as 5 kilometers 一起构成伴随状语。【备注】作者和父母一起去公园游玩。由于急切地想看到老虎,作者加快了步伐,结果和父母走散了。徘徊在公园,作者倍感孤独。更糟糕的是,作者身无分文,不得不步行五公里回家。52.Dear Sir or
