77、about去掉。2. 【解析】第一句在symbol前加不定冠词a。考查冠词。symbol是可数名词。根据语境, 这里指的是春节对联是中国传统文化的“一个”象征, 故要用其单数形式。这里是泛指, 故在symbol前加不定冠词a。3. 【解析】第二句putputting。考查动名词。分析可知put作介词of的宾语, 要用其动名词形式, 故将put改成putting。4. 【解析】第三句ThereforeHowever。考查副词。句意: 然而, 直到明朝对联才在全国流行。therefore意为“因此”, 用来表示因果关系。根据语境, 这里前后句子为转折关系, 不是因果关系。故将Therefore改成
78、However。5. 【解析】第四句charactercharacters。考查名词单复数。character是可数名词, 根据后文中的they可知这里要用其复数形式, 故将character改成characters。6. 【解析】第四句stickingstuck。考查动词语态。根据语境, 这里要表达的是它们(对联)“被”贴在门上或墙上, they与stick之间是被动关系, 要用stick的过去分词而不是现在分词形式, 故将sticking改成stuck。7. 【解析】第五句whatwhich/that。考查定语从句。分析句子可知convey wishes for love, health,
79、 success, wealth. . . 这句为定语从句。what不能引导定语从句, what的用法错误。本句中先行词为positive words, 引导词在句中作主语, 故要用which或that引导定语从句。8. 【解析】第五句happyhappiness。考查名词。分析可知, happy与love, health, success都是作介词for的宾语, 作宾语要用happy的名词形式。故将happy改成happiness。9. 【解析】第七句yourour。考查物主代词。句意: 另外, 歌颂我们的祖国是另外一个受欢迎的主题。根据语境, 这里是指歌颂“我们”的祖国而不是歌颂“你”的祖
80、国, 故将your改成our。10. 【解析】最后一句carefullycareful。考查形容词。分析可知此处要修饰名词explanation。修饰名词要用形容词, carefully为副词, 用法错误, 故将carefully改成careful。. 书面表达假定你是李华, 你们班级的节目“哈姆雷特(Hamlet)”将参加下个月学校“英语文化节”话剧(drama)比赛, 请你给度假中的外教Mr Hurst写一封电子邮件, 并附上节目录像, 请他给予相关的指导。注意: 1. 词数100左右; 2. 可适当增加细节, 以使行文连贯; 3. 邮件的开头和结尾已为你写好。Dear Mr Hurst,
