33、s Alive _10_ (commit) to promoting Chinese literature since its first run.答案与解析语篇导读：本文为我们分析了一档流行的电视节目“见字如面”及它的起源和影响。1to考查介词。根据句意：但是“见字如面”这档电视节目，有助于把这种保持联系的老方法回归现实。back to归还，回归，故填to。2its考查代词。根据句意：“见字如面” 从Letters Live获得其理念，它是一档2013年出品的英国的节目。故填its。3show考查时态。该句时态和全文保持一致，陈述一般事实，故此处用一般现在时，both作主语，谓语动词用复数。

34、故填show。4are考查谓语动词。根据“eyecatching visual effects”可知，名词是复数形式，所以be动词也用复数形式，故填are。5where考查定语从句。该句先行词是a live event，在定语从句中作地点状语，故用where。6creativity考查名词。lack of sth缺乏。此处指缺乏创造性，故用create的名词形式creativity。7being read考查非谓语。句意：通过听这些字被读。hear sth.doing的形式表示动作进行，且them和read之间是被动关系。故用being read。8Compared考查非谓语。主语letter

35、s和compare之间是被动关系，故用compare的过去分词形式。9naturally考查副词。应用副词修饰动词come，故填naturally。10has been committed考查时态和语态。由since提示，该句用现在完成时态，且Letters Alive和commit之间是被动关系，故填has been committed。.书面表达(2018年高考课标全国卷)假定你是李华，你的新西兰朋友Terry将去中国朋友家做客，发邮件向你询问有关习俗。请你回复邮件。内容包括：1到达时间；2合适的礼物；3餐桌礼仪。注意：1.词数100左右；2可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。_答案Dear
