65、所以填an。2with考查介词。provide sb.with sth. “给某人提供某物”是固定搭配,所以填with。3has考查时态和主谓一致。句子的主语是The Washington Post,是一份报纸的名称,为单数概念,且应与上句中的uses时态保持一致,所以填has。4were published考查动词的时态、语态和主谓一致。分析句子成分可知,空处为句子的谓语,又与句子主语850 articles构成被动关系,故用被动语态,即bedone,且根据and可知,此处应与earned的时态保持一致,即一般过去时,所以填were published。5easier考查形容词的比较级。根据
66、该句中的and可知,此处与faster并列,故用形容词的比较级形式作宾语补足语,所以填easier。6producing考查非谓语动词。介词后跟名词、代词或动名词作宾语,空处作介词by的宾语,所以填producing。7to concentrate考查非谓语动词。the ability to do sth.“做某事的能力”是固定搭配,不定式作后置定语,所以填to concentrate。8truly考查副词。分析句子结构可知,空处应为副词,修饰动词benefit,所以填truly。9curiosity考查名词。分析句子结构可知,空处应为名词,作介词about 的宾语,所以填curiosity。
67、10where考查名词性从句。分析句子结构可知,空处引导表语从句,在从句中作地点状语,结合语境可知,此处表示这些就是我们想让新闻工作者投入精力之所在,所以填where。.短文改错(2020“四省八校”第二次教学质量检测)Last summer vacation I travelled to America and I met a lot of foreigner.I found a tour guide which spoke both English and Chinese because of I was not confident about my English.Interesting
