37、e只能修饰不可数名词, few修饰可数名词的复数形式, 故把Little改为Few。2. 【解析】 第二句thatwhich。考查定语从句。句意: 很少有东西能与中国的高铁相比, 尤其是它正在发展的车速。分析句子Few things can match Chinas highspeed rail system, especially the speed at that it is still developing. 可知, the speed被定语从句修饰, the speed在定语从句中作介词at的宾语。定语从句中把介词at提到了关系词前, 前面有介词, 关系词不能用th
38、at, 这里指物, 故只能用which。故把that改为which。3. 【解析】第三句known前添加is。考查固定搭配。根据语境可知, 本句指的是: 这种速度以“中国速度”而出名。be known as“作为而著名”, 句子的主语是the speed, 谓语动词用单数, 故在known前添加is。4. 【解析】第四句删除of。考查代词。句意: 中国速度对国家意义重大。a lot of后面要跟宾语; 此处a lot用作代词, 意为“许多”。5. 【解析】第五句hadhas。考查时态。句意: 过去的30年来, 中国在各个领域迅速发展。分析句子可知, 本句是拟人的说法。根据句中the past

41、国速度如此之快, 已成为全世界羡慕的典范。英语表达中, 常用the world来表示“世界”, 故把a改为the。【知识拓展】so和such的区别1. so副词, 意思是“如此、这样”, 后面常接形容词或副词; such形容词, 意思是“如此、这样”, 修饰名词, 既可接可数名词, 也可以接不可数名词。such a/ an +形容词+单数可数名词; so +形容词+a/an+单数名词。例如: Its such a fine day=Its so fine a day. 天气这么好。2. such除了修饰单数可数名词外, 还可以修饰复数名词和不可数名词。后面接复数名词或不可数名词时, 只能用such, 而不能用so。例如: such beautiful flowers这么美丽的花如果复数名词前有few, many等形容词; 不可数名词前有little, much等形容词, 就必须用so, 而不能用such。例如: so many books 这么多的书 so few people 这么少的人so much money 那么多的钱 so little milk 那么少的牛奶Dont make so much noise! 别那么大声嚷嚷! 关闭Word文档返回原板块
