文章大意：本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了中国的婚俗习惯。

? 解析：考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知，空处表示自然而然的结果，主语They和动词cause之间为逻辑上的主谓关系，故用现在分词作状语。

? 解析：考查主谓一致。根据该句中的usually可知，此处表示经常发生的动作，故用一般现在时；主语The traditional Chinese marriage为第三人称单数，故谓语动词应用单数形式。

? 解析：考查固定搭配。In addition为固定搭配，意为“此外，除此外”。 ? 解析：考查主语从句。分析该句结构可知，空处引导主语从句，且在从句中作主语，故用what引导该主语从句。

? 解析：考查名词。根据空前的不定冠词a可知，空处应用名词形式。

? 解析：考查非谓语动词。根据语境可知，空处表示目的，故用动词不定式作目的状语。

? 解析：考查代词。根据语境可知，空处指那些在农村地区的人，表示复数，故用代

词those。

? 解析：考查副词。空处修饰动词hosted，用副词形式。

? 解析：考查冠词。空后的banquet为可数名词，表示泛指，且unique的发音以辅音音素开头，故用不定冠词a。

10 解析：考查形容词。空处修饰后面的名词baby，表示“一个健康的婴儿”，故用形○

容词healthy。

? 解析：you前加for。考查固定短语。arrange for sb. to do sth. 意为”安排某人做某事”，为固定搭配。

? 解析：Locating改为Located。考查非谓语动词。be located in. . . 意为“坐落于……”，为固定短语，在句中作状语，故填located。

? 解析：was改为is。考查时态。此处是在介绍这个家庭的基本情况，表示客观事实，故用一般现在时。

? 解析：our改为their。考查代词。文章是“我”在为Peter介绍他所要寄宿的家庭的情况，与下文中的“them”相照应，故应将our改为their。

? 解析：fluently改为fluent。考查形容词。修饰名词应用形容词，故用形容词fluent作定语修饰English。

? 解析：communicate改为communicating。考查固定短语。have no trouble (in)doing sth. 意为”做某事没有困难”，为固定搭配，故用动词－ing形式作宾语。

? 解析：the改为an。考查冠词。根据语境可知，此处表示泛指，故用不定冠词；又因American的发音以元音音素开头，故将the改为an。

? 解析：that改为which。考查定语从句。在定语从句中，介词后跟关系代词which/whom。结合语境可知，关系词表示前面整件事，故将that改为which。

? 解析：删除to。考查介词。由语境可知，此处应用In addition表示“此外”，故将介词to删除。in addition to为介词短语，后跟名词、代词或动词－ing作宾语，不可单独使用。

10 解析：hostess改为hostess’○。考查名词所有格。这里指女主人的厨艺，应用名词所有格。

Sarah says，“My dad thinks I should take the offer now. But at the moment，school __9. comes__ (come) first. I don’t want to get too absorbed in modeling. It is __10. certainly__ (certain) fun but the lifestyle is a little unreal. I don’t want to have nothing else to fall back on when I can’t model my more. ”

文章大意：本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了16岁的Sarah在上学的同时兼职做模特，并且取得了巨大的成功；虽然她父亲希望她当全职模特，但是Sarah仍然坚持要完成学业。

? 解析：考查固定搭配。spend time doing sth. 是固定搭配，故填resting。 ? 解析：考查冠词。该空后面model是可数名词单数，此处表示“作为一名模特”，故填a。

? 解析：考查动词时态和语态。此处动词tell与Sarah是被动关系，因为第二段在讲述父亲和Sarah的想法时都是用现在时，因此可以用现在完成时表达过去对现在的影响，故可以填has been told。此外，“被告知”这件事情发生在过去，故也可填was told。

? 解析：考查定语从句。此句Sarah是主语，wants是主句谓语，因此可以判断此处是非限制性定语从句，先行词为Sarah，从句中缺主语且指人，故填who。

? 解析：考查非谓语动词。want to do是固定搭配，故填to prove。

? 解析：考查词性转换。形容词性物主代词her后需用educate的名词形式，故填education。

? 解析：考查名词单复数。invitation是可数名词，前面有several修饰，要用复数形式，故填invitations。

? 解析：考查介词。degree与介词in搭配，表示在某方面的学位。故填in。 ? 解析：考查动词时态。全文均为现在时，且school是第三人称单数，故填comes。 10 解析：○考查副词。此处fun是名词，但空处修饰整个句子，作状语，故填certainly。 Ⅱ. 短文改错
