85、主语,因为名词publisher是可数名词,且bookstores用复数形式,故此处也用复数形式。故填publishers。【42题详解】考查代词。句意:然而,出版商和书店报道,整个美国越来越多的人加入他们。这里代词作宾语,故用宾格形式。故填them。【43题详解】考查定语从句关系词。句意:成员可能是朋友或住在附近的人。空格处引导定语从句,先行词为friends or people,在从句中作主语,故用关系词who/that。故填who/that。【44题详解】考查冠词。句意:一些美国人属于网上阅读团体。on the Internet在网上,固定搭配,需加the。故填the。【45题详解】考查

91、房子。【详解】1.考查时态。句意:我一直渴望我们梦想中的房子。下文使用一般将来时表示将来发生的事情,因此推断此句表示现在的结果,用现在完成进行时,故将had改为have。2.考查冠词。one-story是以辅音因素开头的单词,用不定冠词a,故将an改为a。3.考查there be句型。句意:有一间客厅,一间餐厅和三间卧室。根据句意,此处是there be句型。故将It改为There。4.考查介词。句意:我会用环保的方式装饰我的房子,因为它能让我感到放松。in away“用的方式”是固定用法,故a前加in。5.考查动词。句意同上。make后接不带to的不定式作宾语补足语,故去掉feel前的to。
92、6.考查名词的数。句意:随着科技快速发展,将会发生许多变化,房子也会变得越来越智能。change“变化”,可数名词,由many修饰用复数,故将change改为changes。7.考查连词。句意:随着科技快速发展,发生了许多改变,房子成为越来越智能的。比较级+and+比较级是固定用法,表示“越来越”,故将or改为and。8.考查代词。句意:例如,我会通过与它们交谈来控制电视和灯光。根据句意可知,them指代上文提到的a TV and a light,指两者用both,all指代三者或三者以上,故将all改为both。9.考查非谓语动词。句意:所有的家务都将由机器人完成,给我更多的时间去玩,做一些
93、更有意义的事情。分析句子可知,句子的谓语动词是will be done,故leave用非谓语动词形式,根据句意,表示自然而然的结果,用现在分词作结果状语,故将leave改为leaving。10.考查形容词。修饰something用形容词作后置定语,故将meaningfully改为meaningful。第二节 书面表达(满分25分) 52. 假如你是李华,学校英语教研室就你所喜爱的英语选修课(英语电影欣赏)向同学们征集意见。请你根据以下内容用英文给英语教研室写一封信,内容主要包括:1. 说明你对这门英语选修课的喜爱; 2. 赞赏该课的优点; 3. 对该课的内容或方式提出两点建议。注意:1. 词数
