When I was studying in Kansas City last year,a hurricane swept through the city.We were sitting round the kitchen table while we heard the alarm.We ran down into the basement and laid on the floor.Then I heard a noise,like approaching train,which got louder and louder.The house began to shake!And then,all of a sudden,it stopped.We went to upstairs and tried the door to the kitchen,so it wouldn't open.The house directly across the street had completely been disappeared!We were relieved to see people coming from the basement unharming.Amazing,the upstairs of the house was unaffected.But the hurricane had broken all the windows in the kitchen,and the wind had blown the kitchen table-the one we were sitting minutes before-against the door to the basement.

分析 本文是一篇記敘文,主要講述了作者去年在Kansas學習的時候遭遇一場颶風的情況.

解答 When I was studying in Kansas City last year,a hurricane swept through the city.We were sitting round the 
kitchen table while we heard the alarm.We ran down into the basement and laidon the floor.Then I heard a noise,like^approaching train,which got louder and louder.The house began to shake!And then,all of a sudden,it stopped.We went to upstairs and tried the door to the kitchen,so it wouldn't open.The house directly across the street had completely been disappeared!We were relieved to see people coming from the basement unharming. Amazing,the upstairs of the house was unaffected.But the hurricane had broken all the windows in the kitchen,and the wind had blown the kitchen table---the one we were sitting^minutes before---against the door to the basement.
詳解:
1.while改為when
解析:此處考查"主語+be+doing…when"(某人正在做某事時突然…),故應(yīng)將while改為when.
2.laid改為lay
解析:根據(jù)意思"我們跑進地下室,躺在地板上"可知,此處應(yīng)是lie"躺"的過去式lay.
3.在approaching之前加an
解析:根據(jù)句意"然后我聽到像一列正要來臨的火車的聲音"可知此處approaching前面缺少不定冠詞an.
4.went to 把to去掉
解析:go upstairs/downstairs意為"上/下樓".
5.so改為but
解析:根據(jù)句意"我們嘗試了通往廚房的門,但是門開不了"可知此處應(yīng)將so改為but.
6.been disappeared 把been去掉
解析:disappear"消失"沒有被動語態(tài),故去掉其前面的been.
7.unharming改為unharmed
解析:此處是形容詞作狀語,unharmed意為"平安無恙的;沒有受到傷害的",用來修飾人;unharming意為"無害的;不傷害人的"用來修飾事或物.此處是修飾人,故應(yīng)該使用unharmed.
8.Amazing改為Amazingly 
解析:副詞可以修飾整個句子,而形容詞不能.故此處需要將形容詞amazing"令人驚訝的"改為副詞amazingly"令人驚訝地;令人吃驚的是".
9.was改為were
解析:主語是復數(shù)形式的upstairs,故其后的謂語動詞相應(yīng)地也要使用復數(shù)形式;故需將was改為were.
10.minutes前加at/around/round
解析:分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知,此處是定語從句;定語從句的先行詞是table,sit為不及物動詞,故其后缺少介詞.sit at/around/round the table都可以表達"坐在桌旁"之意,故應(yīng)該在sitting之后加at/around/round.

點評 短文改錯題考查的是語境理解能力和用法基礎(chǔ)知識,常考的知識點有:名詞(單復數(shù)錯誤),動詞(時態(tài)、語態(tài)、搭配、轉(zhuǎn)換),代詞(指代錯誤),形容詞和副詞(轉(zhuǎn)換、比較級),連詞(and,but,or,therefore,however,so)等;偶爾也考察邏輯性錯誤,如本來用her,卻用了his等.解題時要注意:以句子為單位,以動詞為中心,看句子要看其完整性(包括句意及語法結(jié)構(gòu)等的正確完整)以及與上下文之間的邏輯關(guān)系是否正確.

Jon Hoffman was sitting at a red light when he saw a man run out of a store carrying a plastic donation jar full of cash. The Plano, Texas, detective# dressed in plain clothes but wearing his badge and gun, caught the man and pinned him to the hood of his car. But Hoffman had trouble containing the thief, and they got into a struggle.

“The detective has a martial (軍事的) arts background, and he said he thought the suspect must have a martial arts background, too, because he was able to break away so easily,” a Plano police spokesperson said.

The detective called out for help as a crowd gathered. Among those watching: Andre Harvey and Kirby Sample, two day laborers. Harvey did what has become common these days—he took out his phone and hit record. “I hate to say it, but I thought that this policeman was doing something stupid,” Harvey said. “But when he asked for help, I thought, well, there won’t be a shooting if I get over there in time.” Harvey jumped into action —while he was still recording the video—as did Sample.

“Harvey caught hold of the suspect’s arms, while Kirby seized his legs, and they were able to get the suspect to the ground to help Detective Hoffman put the handcuffs (手銬)on,” said the police spokesperson. The 27-year-old suspect was charged with resisting arrest and other offenses. The charity jar he stole held less than $ 50.

“I’ve been on the wrong side of the law several times in my life,” Harvey told WFAA. “It feels good to be on the right side and do something positive.”

After the arrest, the three men got to know each other over steaks and ribs at a local steak house — Hoffman’s treat, as a thank-you. But the rescuers say Hoffman deserves credit too. “It could have turned real ugly,” Sample told KFOR. com. “He handled himself like a real professional.”

1.What made Hoffman call for help when arresting the suspect?

A. He was not on duty. B. He couldn’t control the suspect.

C. He needed witnesses to support him. D. He wanted to push the thief into the car.

2.Why did Harvey and Kirby record the scene at the beginning?

A. To follow the fashion B. To record the cop’s violence.

C. To keep track of the criminal. D. To avoid being involved in the incident.

3.What can be inferred about Harvey?

A. He was ready to violate the law. B. He was out of work at that time.

C. He had a good martial arts background. D. He might have had some illegal conducts.

4.What is Harvey and Sample’s attitude towards Hoffman?

A. Appreciative. B. Prejudiced.

C. Skeptical. D. Admirable.

The term “to extend an olive(橄欖) branch” means to make an offer of peace or reconciliation(和好). This term has Biblical(圣經(jīng)的) origins, coming from the section of the Old Testament that deals with the flood; the sign that the flood is over is an olive branch brought back to the ark(方舟) by a dove. Olive branches were also symbols of peace in Ancient Greece and Rome, and they continue to be used in various works of art that are meant to suggest peace.

Some people have suggested that the olive was a very deliberate and well-considered choice as a metaphor(比喻) for peace, because olive trees famously take years to mature. War is typically very hard on the trees because people cannot take the time to nurture them and plant new ones. Therefore, the offer of an olive branch would suggest that someone is tired of war, whether it is an actual war or a falling out between friends.

In Ancient Greek and Roman times, people would offer actual olive branches. In Rome, for example, defeated armies traditionally carried olive branches to indicate that they were giving in, and the Greeks used them into weddings and other ceremonies. In the modern era, the branch is usually metaphorical, rather than actual, not least because the plants can be a bit difficult to obtain.

Many people agree that peace negotiations at all levels of society are a good idea. Between nations, obviously, it is important to extend an olive branch to ensure mutual safety and to help the world run more smoothly. This act can also be important on a personal level, as resolving conflict and learning to get along with others is viewed as an important life skill in many cultures.

At some point in their lives, many people will be advised to extend an olive branch to settle a dispute or resolve an issue. Some people believe that it takes an immense amount of courage to take this action, as it often comes with an admission of wrongdoing and regret.

1.According to the Bible, ________.

A. an olive branch suggests flood is coming

B. the ark is made of olive tree wood

C. an olive branch means flood is over

D. a dove loves to settle on the olive branch

2.The olive is considered a good choice as a metaphor for peace for the following reasons EXCEPT _______.

A. olive trees famously take years to mature

B. olive branches make people tired of war

C. war is typically very hard on the trees

D. people cannot take the time to nurture them while at war

3.Why are actual olive branches seldom used in modern times?

A. Olive trees are being protected now. B. Olive trees are planted only in certain countries.

C. Olive trees can be far to seek. D. There is no need to use real olive branches.

4.It can be learned from the text that to extend an olive branch________.

A. is not important on a personal level B. is only important between nations

C. takes a lot of courage D. is an important life skill in many cultures

If you don’t think technology can improve your trip better, meet Judy. When she recently checked into the Biu Hotel in Zurich, a clerk asked her to pay hundreds of dollars higher than the online offer. It was not a cheap stay, but it became more of one after she fired up the Booking. Com app she’d used to purchase her room on her smartphone. “As soon as I showed him the rate, he honored it,” Judy says.

Technology may create challenges for travelers-indeed, it may have led to Judy’s rate confusion in the first place-but it can also solve them. The solutions go beyond making sure of a hotel rate. The latest version of Booking.com is among the most feature-rich booking programs. Users can select hotels by location, make a secure booking and view the confirmed rate.

Another pain point for travelers is traffic that eats away precious vacation time. There’s a new app for that, called Commute. As the name implies, it’s aimed at users who have to make the same trip every day. Just input basic information about your destination and expected leaving time, and the app will start sending you traffic data 15 minutes before you leave.

Another source of travel-related conflict and confusion is money. That’s particularly true when you’re dealing with a foreign currency. The latest version of Travel Money Tracker helps travelers prevent currency mix-ups. It instantly converts(兌換) a country’s native currency to yours, so you know exactly how much that Espresso(濃咖啡) in Milan costs in dollars. One extra feature is the ability to set up an alert that tells you when you’re overspending, which can sometimes be a problem when you’re on vacation. The only catch, of course, is that you have to remember to record all your purchases.

1.What does the example of Judy want to show?

A. The rate of Biu Hotel was higher than that of others

B. Technology can make our trips better

C. The clerk was very friendly and patient

D. The smart phones have many functions

2.What is the main function of Travel Money Tracker?

A. It tells people how much Espresso costs

B. It warns when people are overspending

C. It records all people’s purchases

D. It changes the native currency to yours

3.What’s the purpose of the passage?

A. To encourage people to travel

B. To help people with technology problems

C. To introduce some new apps

D. To provide people with traveling information
