What
1.句意：火车拥挤、慢，但是景色是好的。形容词做表语，故把crowd改为crowded。
2. the scenery是句子主语，不可数名词，后面的谓语动词用单数形式，故把were改为was。
3.根据Last Saturday可知句子用一般过去时态，故把arrive改为arrived。

5.句意：他们给我们端上有新鲜叶子的食物。根据句意可知把We改为They。
6.固定搭配：go for a walk去散步，故在for walk之间加a。
7.固定搭配：a great many +名词复数，故把many of trees去掉of。
8.固定搭配：do some shopping购物，故把shoppings 改为shopping。
9.句意：城镇中心的东西不是那么便宜，但是哪里有各种各样不错的商品。此处表示转折关系，故把so改为but。
10. day是名词，所以感叹句应该用what引导，故把How改为What。

What修饰名词
What+a/an +形容词+单数可数名词+主语+谓语！What an honest boy!
What+形容词+可数名词复数+主语+谓语！What important meetings they are!

【分析】
本文为记叙文。本文讲述了公交车上一个4岁的小男孩为奶奶让座，得到了乘客的夸赞的故事。
【详解】第1处，考查介词。时间状语this morning作状语，其前无需加介词，故去掉in。
第2处，考查数词用法。 英语中表达“某人几十多岁”的方式为 “one’s + 表示整十的基数词的复数形式”，故将seventy改为seventies。
第3处，考查介词搭配。be filled with为固定搭配，故将of改为with。
第4处，考查定冠词固定搭配。根据上下文语境可知，“在车的前部”，指在内部空间的前部，用in the front of，故在in front 之间加the。
第5处，考查非谓语动词。动词follow一词与主语people之间为主动关系，作状语，用现在分词形式，故将Followed改为Following。
第6处，考查副词用法。此处修饰形容词lovely（可爱的），应用副词形式particularly（尤为，格外），故将particular改为particularly。
第7处，考查动词时态。根据上下文语境可知，此处用一般过去时态，故将leads改为led。
第8处，考查形容词性物主代词。根据上下文逻辑关系，此处指小男孩的妈妈，故将Her改为His。
第9处，考查并列连词。根据句意逻辑可知，此处为并列顺承关系，用and连接，故将but改为and。
第10处，考查感叹句。感叹句中用what修饰名词，此处构成“What a + 形容词 + 名词（+主语 +谓语）！”结构，该感叹句省略了其后的主谓部分（he is），故将How改为What。
【点睛】第4处考查in front of 和 in the front of，它们之间少了一个词the，方位指代不同。
in front of… 表示在一物外部的前面，而不是在一空间内的前部。比如房前有一棵苹果树，应译为There is an apple tree in front of the house。
in the front of… 意为在一样内部空间的前部，比如司机在汽车前排开车，老师在教室内前面讲课，都用in the front of,例句如：The baby and I were in the front of the car.宝宝和我在车子前排。
三、 阅读理解
21. Humans have sewn by hand for thousands of years. It was said that the first thread was made from animal muscle and sinew（肌腱）. And the earliest needles were made from bones. Since those early days, many people have been involved in the process of developing a machine that could do the same thing more quickly and with greater efficiency.
Charles Wiesenthal, who was born in Germany, designed and received a patent on a double-pointed needle that eliminated the need to turn the needle around with each stitch(缝合) in England in 1755. Other inventors of that time tried to develop a functional sewing machine, but each design had at least one serious imperfection.
Frenchman Barthelemy Thimonnier finally engineered a machine that really worked. However, he was nearly killed by a group of angry tailors when they burned down his garment factory. They feared that they would lose their jobs to the machine.
American inventor Elias Howe, born on July 9, 1819, was awarded a patent for a method of sewing that used thread from two different sources. Howe’s machine had a needle with an eye at the point, and it used the two threads to make a special stitch called a lockstitch. However, Howe faced difficulty in finding buyers for his machines in America. In frustration, he traveled to England to try to sell his invention there. When he finally returned home, he found that dozens of manufacturers were adapting his discovery for use in their own sewing machines.
Isaac Singer, another American inventor, was also a manufacturer who made improvements to the design of sewing machines. He invented an up-and-down-motion mechanism that replaced the side-to-side machines. He also developed a foot treadle(脚踏板) to power his machine. This improvement left the sewer’s hands free. Undoubtedly, it was a huge improvement of the hand-cranked machine of the past. Soon the Singer sewing machine achieved more fame than the others for it was more practical, it could be adapted to home use and it could be bought on hire-purchase（分期付款）. The Singer sewing machine became the first home appliance, and the Singer company became one of the first American multinationals.
However, Singer used the same method to create a lockstitch that Howe had already patented. As a result, Howe accused him of patent infringement（侵犯）. Of course, Elias Howe won the court case, and Singer was ordered to pay Howe royalties（版税）. In the end, Howe became a millionaire, not by manufacturing the sewing machine, but by receiving royalty payments for his invention.
60. Barthelemy Thimonnier’s garment factory was burned down because  
     _____________.
A. people did not know how to put out the fire
B. Elias Howe thought Thimonnier had stolen his invention
C. the sewing machines was couldn’t work finally
D. workers who feared the loss of their jobs to a machine set fire
61. Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the passage?  
A. Singer is an American inventor and manufacturer.
B. The Singer sewing company became more practical.
C. The foot treadle helped to make the sewer’s hands free.
D. Singer made improvements to the design of sewing machines.
62. Why did the court force Isaac Singer to pay Elisa Howe a lifetime of royalties?
A. Because the judge was against Singer for his surly attitude.
B. Because Howe had already patented the lockstitch used by Singer.
C. Because Singer had borrowed money from Howe and never repaid it.
D. Because Singer and Howe had both invented the same machine.
63. Which of the following would be the best title for this passage?
A. A Stitch in Time Saves Nine
B. The Case between Howe and Singer
C. Patent Laws on the Sewing Machine
D. The Early History of the Sewing Machine

22. When I lived in Spain, some Spanish friends of mine decided to visit England by car. Before they left, they asked me for advice about how to find accommodation (住所). I suggested that they should stay at ‘bed and breakfast’ houses, because this kind of accommodation gives a foreign visitor a good chance to speak English with the family. My friends listened to my advice, but they came back with some funny stories.
    “We didn’t stay at bed and breakfast houses,” they said, “because we found that most families were away on holiday.”
    I thought this was strange. Finally I understood what had happened. My friends spoke little English, and they thought ‘VACANCIES’ meant ‘holidays’, because the Spanish word for ‘holidays” is ‘vacaciones’. So they did not go to house where the sign outside said ‘VACANCLES’, which in English means there are free rooms. Then my friends went to house where the sign said ‘NO VACANCLES’, because they thought this meant the people who owned the house were not away on holiday. But they found that these houses were all full. As a result, they stayed at hotels!
    We laughed about this and about mistakes my friends made in reading other signs. In Spanish, the word ‘DIVERSION’ means fun. In English, it means that workmen are repairing the road, and that you must take a different road. When my friends saw the word ‘DIVERSION’ on a road sign, they thought they were going to have fun. Instead, the road ended in a large hold.
    English people have problems too when they learn foreign languages. Once in Paris. when someone offered me some more. coffee, I said ‘Thank you’ in French. I meant that I would like some more, However , to my surprise the coffee pot was taken away! Later I found out that ‘Thank you’ in French means ‘Mo, thank you.’
68. My Spanish friends wanted advice about ______.
   A. learning English                     B. finding places to stay in England
   C. driving their car on English roads        D. going to England by car
69. I suggested that they stay at bed and breakfast houses because ______.
   A. they would be able to practise their English
   B. it would be much cheaper than staying in hotels
   C. it would be convenient for them to have dinner
   D. there would be no problem about finding accommodation there
70. “NO VACANCIES” in English means ______.
   A. no free rooms         B. free rooms
C. not away on holiday    D. holidays
