It has played in his country since the first settlers arrive. It was a national ball what was liked by many Americans at that time. Although baseball possibly developed from an English game, it is now thought of like an American sport. From the Little League to the Major League, player of all skill levels enjoy testing their power on the “ Field of Dreams”. Famous players, exciting music but the standard stadium food of hot dogs, popcorns and peanuts are popularly among Americans, In a fact, Americans make go to the baseball game a favorite summer outing for many Americans nowadays.参考答案：As is known to ,to 为介词，后应该用宾格，所以用us。It指baseball与play之间是被动关系，所以应该为has been playedSince+时间状语从句，从句用一般过去时，主句用现在完成时。A national ball 后跟的为定语从句，从句缺主语，所以用关系代词that/which。Think of。 as 认为。是，固定短语根据此句中的their可知主语不是一个人，所以应该用复数。Famous players, exciting music but the standard stadium food of hot dogs, popcorns and peanuts这几样东西为并列关系，所以用and不用but。popcorns and peanuts are popularly among Americans此句为系表结构，标语要用形容词，而不用副词。In fact 为固定短语Americans make go to the baseball game a favorite summer outing for many Americans nowadays.此句中go做make 的宾语，所以用going。名师点睛：并列句中的并列连词、主从复合句中的从属连词用的是否得当。主谓一致问题固定短语搭配下面重点分析一下时态语态的用法。如此题中的第2，3个错误，通读整句可以判断出此句中的时态有问题，因为since引导时间状语时强调从过去某时开始，所以用从句用过去时。主句用现在完成时，但我们判断完时态后还应该判断语态是否准确。仔细分析可知此处语态有误，应用被动语态，而不应该用主动语态。所以在做题时，首先判断时态是否准确，其次观察主语与谓语之间是否存在被动关系。三、 阅读理解21. 读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。On August 16, 1977, Elvis Presley saved me.The previous afternoon, I played with my six-year-old peers in Heather Peters backyard. I was enjoying my cake, when Heather asked me where my sleeping bag was. Only then did I know this party was a sleepover. The word sleep-over to a six-year-old bed-wetter is like what “cancer” means to an adult. But what if I told them I was a bed- wetter? At least with cancer, people gather at your bedside instead of running from it.I thought of a way to escape. I would explain that I needed my mothers permission to spend the nights But as I called my Mom, Heather stood beside me to listen. She granted permission ！ Then I would be sleeping in the same living room as the other girls. I didnt bring my own pajamas (睡衣)，so Mrs. Peters offered me Heathers pajamas.As the other girls drifted into their sweet dreams, I tried to stay awake. “Do I need to go again? Ill stay up to go one more time.”，Of course ，I finally fell asleep.The next morning ，I was the first to wake up. I was warm! I lay in panic for what seemed like hours before the other girls started to wake up. I did the only thing I could doI pretended that the bed-wetting didnt happen. I got up ，took off Heathers pajamas and changed into my clothes like the other girls.Mrs . Peters walked into the room, and before she could say anything, she stepped right onto the pile of my wet pajamas. My heart stopped as I watched her face burn red. “WHO DID THIS?” She screamed, with a look so scary. Should I answer?

BAD weather, bad food and grumpy people thats what some people think of first when they think about Britain. Many online commentators even joke that Britons are so grumpy precisely because it constantly rains and they are always hungry.In fact, many believe that Britons are inherently negative, in contrast to their neighbors across the Atlantic Ocean.“Americans are more optimistic, due to the fact that they are told they can become the next president of the United States,” Ricky Gervais, a British comedian, told online forum Big Think. “British people are told, it wont happen to you. And they carry that. They carry that with them. We champion the underdog .”Its no wonder that Britons hold the reputation of having a “stiff upper lip” being cold and not showing any emotion.Britains reputation as a grumpy country may, however, simply be the result of a cultural misunderstanding. According to the BBC, British actor Michael Caine once said: “I think what is British about me is my feelings and awareness of others and their situations. English people are always known to be well-mannered and cold, but we are not cold we dont interfere in your situation. If we are heartbroken, we dont scream in your face with tears we go home and cry on our own. Its completely to do with your comfort we dont intrude on your space. Thats very English.”A BBC reader noted that the perceived coldness of British people is actually their way of dealing with hardship. Remembering the terrorist attacks in London on July 7, 2005, Stuart Colley, who lived in the capital at the time, said: “It seemed to me that most peoples response was a cruel determination to carry on and not to fall into an over-emotional outpouring of grief or anger despite what many of us felt inside. Our stiff upper lip seems to be something that gives us strength as a society when we most need it.”41. What is the authors main purpose in writing the article?A.

Why does Michael Caine think British people are not cold?A. They can be heartbroken, and they cry too.B. They are well-mannered and unwilling to disturb others.C. They care a lot about what other people think of them.D. They are taught to face hardships by themselves.45.
