【分析】
本文是一篇新闻报道，在美国关于UFO报道的数量一直很稳定，1月16日一部关于外星来客的电影上映以后，这方面的报道数量激增。后来专家Wayne Tyler写了一篇文章用飞机活动解释所有的UFO报道，关于看到UFO的报道数量立刻就减少了。
【详解】第一处：考查主谓一致。句意：今年一月份早些时候，关于UFO报道的频率很稳定，大约一周三次。本句主语是the rate of UFO reports是单数形式，谓语动词也应该用单数was。所以要把were改为was。
第二处：考查名词单复数。句意：今年一月份早些时候，关于UFO报道的频率很稳定，大约一周三次。介词per意为“每一”，后面要接单数名词，所以要把weeks改为week。
第三处：考查介词。句意：然而在一月16日周一的时候，一部关于外星来客的科幻电影在电视里放映了。介词from意为“来自…”，说明visitor是来自太空的。所以要把to改为from。
第四处：考查冠词。句意：来自各州的报道看见UFO的数量立刻增加起来了。不定冠词a/an表示泛指，定冠词the表示特指，本句中an修饰immediate increase，泛指美国各州观看这部电影的人越来越多。所以要把the改为an。
第五处：考查定语从句。本题定语从句的先行词是Wayne Tyler，关系代词who指代先行词在句中做主语，要在形容词responsible前面加系动词was/is构成系表结构充当谓语。所以要在who后面加was/is。
第六处：考查不定式。句意：负责人Wayne Tyler决定让的发现为人所知。动词短语decide to do sth决定做某事，不定式to do sth做动词decide的宾语。所以要把making改为make。
第七处：考查动词。句意：他写了一篇文章，文章说所有的UFO的报道都可以很自然地用飞机活动来解释。本句主语he与前句中Wayne Tyler一致。所以要把They改为He。
第八处：考查句子结构。句意：他写了一篇文章，文章说所有的UFO的报道都可以很自然地用飞机活动来解释。句子quite naturally做状语修饰谓语部分，介词for是多余的。所以要删除for。
第九处：考查介词。句意：在这个解释以后，看见UFO的报告的数量迅速下降了，尽管比率仍然在平均水平之上。介词following在…之后，而follow是动词，意为“采纳，跟随”，与句意及句子结构不符。所以要把Follow改为Following。
第十处：考查连词。句意：在这个解释以后，看见UFO的报告的数量迅速下降了，尽管比率仍然在平均水平之上。根据句意可知上下文之间是转折关系，要用but/yet/though/although引导，使用要把because改为but/yet/though/although。
20. 假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文，请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。文中共有10处语言错误，每句中最多有两处。每处错误仅涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。

修改：在错的词下划一横线，并在该词下面写出修改后的词。

Everyone has something that make them happy. For me, happiness is sitting in front of a piano but losing myself in the world of music.
I still remember to playing the piano one Sunday afternoon. I felt so tiring after studying for a whole week. After thinking for a moment, I sat in front my piano. Gently pressing the keys with my fingers, I made a few simple but pleasant sound. Slowly, I closed my eyes and enjoyed the music. They reduced my stress and made me happily.
Happiness should be everything that accompanies us all the time. It’s like the butter to our bread --- we can’t do with it.

【分析】
本文是一篇夹叙夹议文，作者由一个星期天的下午弹钢琴的经历认识到快乐应该是一直陪伴我们的东西，它就像面包上的黄油——我们离不开它。
【详解】第一处：考查主谓一致。句意：每个人都有让自己快乐的东西。本句为定语从句， that指代的是先行词something，从句的谓语应该用第三人称单数形式，故make改为makes。
第二处：考查连词。句意：对我来说，快乐就是坐在钢琴前，沉浸在音乐的世界里。此处为顺承而非转折关系，故but改为and。

第三处：考查非谓语动词。句意：我仍然记得在一个星期天的下午弹钢琴。remember doing表示“记得做过某事”，to是多余的，故删掉to。
第四处：考查形容词。句意：在整整一个星期的学习之后，我感到很累。修饰人用ed结尾的形容词，表示“感到……的”，故tiring改为tired。
第五处：考查固定搭配。句意：想了一会儿，我坐在钢琴前。in front of表示“在……前面”，故在front后加of。
第六处：考查名词复数。句意：我用手指轻轻地按了按琴键，发出了几声简单而悦耳的声音。a few修饰可数名词复数，故sound改为sounds。
第七处：考查代词。句意：它缓解了我的压力让我感到快乐。此处指代前面的music，故They改为It。
第八处：考查形容词。句意同上，此处为“make+宾语+宾补”结构，用形容词作宾语补足语，故happily改为happy。
第九处：考查代词。句意：快乐应该是一直陪伴我们的东西。根据句意可知此处表示“某物”而不是“一切”，故everything改为something。
第十处：考查介词。句意：它就像面包上的黄油——我们不能没有它。can’t do without表示“不能没有、离不开”，故with改为without。
三、 阅读理解
21.      Whenever the sun dropped and the blue sky came up, my father and I used to climb the mountain near my house.  Walking together, my father and I used to have a lot of conversations through which I learned lessons from his experiences. He always told me, "You should have goals like climbing the mountain." Without the mountain-climbing that we both enjoyed, we couldn't have enough time to spend together because my father was very busy. I really got a lot from mountain-climbing.  It gave me time to talk with my father and to be in deep thought as well as develop my patience.
     Once we climbed a very high mountain. It was so challenging for me because I was only ten years old.  During the first few hours of climbing, I enjoyed the flowers and trees, and the birds' singing, but as time passed, I got a pain in both of my legs. I wanted to quit climbing. In fact, I hated it at that mountain, but my father said to me, "You can always see a beautiful sky at the top of the mountain, but you can't see it before you reach the top. Only there at the top, can you see all of the nice things, just like in life."
     At that time, I was too young to understand his words. But later after that, I got to know hope and confidence. I found myself standing at the top of the sky, which was as clear as crystal (水晶).
28.  The passage tells us that mountain-climbing was          for father and son.
     A.  enjoyable    B.  hard      C.  painful          D.  comfortable
29. Which of the following is the closest in meaning to the father's words in the second paragraph?
     A.  You will get all you need at the top of the mountain.
     B.  Never give up half-way.
     C.  You can find life is full of nice things.
     D.  The sky is always as clear as crystal.
30. We can infer (推断) from the last paragraph that          .
     A.  the writer used to stop half-way when he climbed the mountain  
B.  the writer reached the top of the mountain
     C.  though the writer was young, he could understand his father
     D.  the writer was very successful in his life
31.  The best title for the passage is"         "
     A. Conversations between Father and Son
     B. Standing at the Top of the Mountain
     C. Reaching the Top of the Mountain
     D. How to Get to the Top of the Mountain
