Around ten minutes ， an ambulance arrived and took to hospital.I continued my way to school，feeling that I could offer some help in time.第一處：AndBut?？疾檫B詞。前后句之間是轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系，故用But。第二處：happenhappened。考查時態(tài)。根據(jù)上文中的“I went on foot”可知，此處描述的是發(fā)生在過去的事情，應(yīng)該用一般過去時。第三處：crossescrossing?？疾榉侵^語動詞。分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知，cross與A middleaged woman之間是邏輯上的主謂關(guān)系，故應(yīng)用現(xiàn)在分詞形式。第四處：thatwhat?？疾槊~性從句。這里指“看到現(xiàn)場發(fā)生的事情”。此處在句中引導(dǎo)賓語從句，且在從句中作主語，表示“的事情”，故用what。第五處：rush前加a?？疾楣谠~。此處指作者沖向那位女士以提供幫助。make a rush for“沖向，奔向”是固定搭配。第六處：刪除out后的of?？疾楣潭ù钆?。一位路人拿出他的手機并給警察打了電話。get“取來，拿來”，是及物動詞，其后可直接接賓語；out在此為副詞。而get out of sth.意為“離開(某地)，擺脫，放棄”，顯然不符合此處的語境。故of多余。第七處：safesafety?？疾槊~。此處充當(dāng)介詞的賓語，應(yīng)該用名詞形式。safety“安全的地方”。第八處：latelater。考查副詞。雖然late和later都可用作副詞，但前者表示“遲，晚”，后者表示“后來，隨后”。根據(jù)句意可知，應(yīng)將late改為later。第九處：himher?？疾榇~。此處指的是救護車將那個受傷的女士帶去了醫(yī)院，故應(yīng)用her。第十處：happilyhappy?？疾樾稳菰~。feel是系動詞，其后應(yīng)用形容詞作表語。His discussion with his new boss，Hu Xin(HX)，_was to_ strongly _influence_ his life as a journalist.他與他的新老板胡新的討論對他的記者生涯必將產(chǎn)生重要影響。be to do句型在本句中表示“注定會；一定”。be to do句型的含義：(1)預(yù)先安排好的計劃或約定。(2)表示說話人的意圖、職責(zé)、義務(wù)、命令等情感意義。(3)表示注定要發(fā)生或一定會發(fā)生的事情。(4)用于條件狀語從句，表示“如果想；設(shè)想”。Every member of the party was _to pay_ (pay) his own expense.參加晚會的所有人費用自理。If you are _to succeed_ (succeed)，you have to make more efforts.如果你想成功的話，你必須更加努力。The talk with his beloved teacher was _to change_ (change) his life.和他深愛的老師的談話注定會改變他的生活。The letter is _to be handed_ (hand) to him in person.這封信必須親手交給他。He admitted that he knew the man who _was supposed to have_ bribed him，but denied that he had ever taken any money.他承認他認識那個行賄人，但他否認接受過賄賂。be supposed to do 被認為；應(yīng)該(should)。如果不定式動作發(fā)生在以前，要用be supposed to have done 形式，意為“被認為做過某事”。was/were supposed to do sth.is/are supposed to have done sth.should have done sth.本該做某事suppose/supposing/provided/providing.假如，假設(shè)I suppose so.我看行吧；我想是的。I dont suppose so.I suppose not.我看不行；我想不是這樣。Everybody _is supposed_ (suppose) to know the law，but few people do.人人都該懂得法律，但很少有人做到。Whoever is supposed _to be fit_ (fit) for the job was asked to sign up.無論是誰，只要被認為適合做這項工作都被要求報了名。Tom was supposed _to have stolen_ (steal) the money.湯姆被認為偷了錢?！鹃喿x理解】Susan Brownell Anthony was a lady ahead of her time. She fought for womens rights long before they became a popular issue. Susan was born on February 15,1820, in Adams, Massachusetts. At that time, women had few rights. They could not own property. Money earned by a married woman belonged to her husband. Major decisions regarding children were made by the fathers. Women could not vote. At the age of 15, Susan became a schoolteacher. She taught for 15 years. Then she began organizing womens groups to promote causes that were important to women. She helped gain better educational rights for women. She helped give married women possession of their earnings. After the Civil War, Susan became very involved in the womens suffrage movement. After years of lecturing, writing, and appealing by Susan and other women, some parts of the United States changed their laws to give women the right to vote. The first state was Wyoming in 1869. Other areas and states gradually followed Wyomings decision. It was not until 1920 that the US. Constitution was changed to give all women voting rights. Susan Brownell Anthony died in 1906 at the age of 86. She was elected to the Hall of Fame for Great Americans in 1950. She was the first American woman to have a likeness(肖像) of her face on a coin. It was the 1979 Susan Brownell Anthony dollar.【文章大意】本文主要介紹了美國歷史上著名的女權(quán)運動領(lǐng)袖Susan Brownell Anthony。她努力為婦女爭取了財產(chǎn)權(quán)、投票權(quán)等權(quán)利?！倦y句分析】Then she began organizing womens groups to promote causes that were important to women.(第三段第二句)分析：該句為主從復(fù)合句，句中that were important to women為that引導(dǎo)的定語從句，修飾先行詞causes。譯文：隨后她開始組織婦女群體加速實現(xiàn)對婦女來說重要的目標(biāo)。1. What was the situation of American women like when Susan was born?AThey had low social status.BThey could vote after getting married.CThey managed money for their husbands.DThey were responsible for decisionmaking.答案與解析：A考查細節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第二段中的“At that time，women had few rights. They could not own property. Money earned by a married woman belonged to her husband. Major decisions regarding children were made by the fathers. Women could not vote.”可知，在那時，女性沒有什么權(quán)利，地位是低下的，故A項正確。B、C和D項均與此表述不符。2. What is the third paragraph mainly about?ASusans teaching experiences.BSusans educational background.CSusans efforts to abolish slavery.DSusans fighting for womens causes.答案與解析：D考查段落大意。通讀第三段尤其是“Then she began organizing womens groups to promote causes that were important to women.”可知，本段主要講述Susan Brownell Anthony為爭取女權(quán)而斗爭的情況，故D項正確。A項僅為細節(jié)之一，無法概括該段大意；B項文中沒有提及；根據(jù)第三段的“Then she began organizing womens groups to promote causes that were important to women”可知，Susan Brownell Anthony為爭取女權(quán)而斗爭，而不是為廢除奴隸制而斗爭，故C項錯誤。3 What does the word “decision” in the fourth paragraph refer to? APromoting the social movement. BChanging the US. Constitution. CGiving women voting rights. DUniting other areas and states.答案與解析：C考查詞義猜測。根據(jù)第四段第二句中的“some parts of the United States changed their laws to give women the right to vote”可知，在Susan Brownell Anthony的努力下，美國一些地區(qū)修改了法律，給了婦女投票權(quán)；結(jié)合該段第三、四句“The first state was Wyoming in 1869. Other areas and states gradually followed Wyomings decision”可以判斷，畫線詞指代“給婦女投票權(quán)”這一決定，故C項正確。4. What may be the best title for the text? AThe first American woman to invent coins BThe problem of womens rights in the US. CThe most popular women organizations DA pioneer in fighting for womens rights答案與解析：D考查標(biāo)題判斷。通讀全文可知，本文主要介紹了美國歷史上著名的女權(quán)運動領(lǐng)袖Susan Brownell Anthony。她為婦女爭取了財產(chǎn)權(quán)、投票權(quán)等權(quán)利。據(jù)此可知D項最適合作文章標(biāo)題。
