答案及解析:
1.only后加did
否定词not only提前,句子主谓要倒装。根据后面一句的时态可判断为过去时,故要在they前加助动词did。
注:not only…but also连接两个主语时,不用倒装,如:
Not only the students, but also the teacher wishes for a holiday.
2. not后加to
本句是省略句,原句应该是The boy wanted to ride his bicycle in the street, but his mother told him not to ride bicycle in the street.在动词不定式结构中,为了避免重复,常常省略不定式结构中的动词原形,只保留to。
3. begin -> begun
在以when, while, if, as if, though (although), as, whether, once等连词引导的时间、原因、条件、方式、让步等状语从句中,常常省略相同的主语或作主语的代词it以及be动词,保留现在分词、过去分词、介词短语、不定式等。 本题中once后省略了(it is) begun。
4. taking -> taken
5. exists -> exist
此处是倒装句,主语是many substances。
6. have -> has
本句的主语是The consolidation(为单数),谓语是have,of the crumbling walls and towers只是后置定语作修饰成分,所以谓语也要用单数。故将have改为has。
7. loudly后加did
so… that 句型中的so 位于句首时,需倒装。
8. conform -> conforms
此处的that引导的是定语从句,先行词是medium,所以从句的谓语动词要用第三人称单数。
9. is -> are
本句为全倒装句,真正的主语是the pratical techniques,所以系动词要用复数形式。
10. much -> more
11. the前加as
此处if not better than 是插入语,完整的结构是as…as..结构。
12. three-hours -> three-hour
根据语法规则,数词+名次构成复合形容词,作定语修饰名词。复合形容词中间要加连字符,而且名词要用单数。
13. It -> There
此处是there be句型。
14. two-five -> two-fifths
当表示几分之几时,分子用基数词,分母要用序数词;如果分子大于一的话,那么分母加s。例如:3分之1:one third;4分之3:three forths。还有另一种表达就是 基数词+ in / out of +基数词,例如:3分之1:one in three或one out of three;4分之3:three in four或three out of four.
15. That -> It
此处是形式主语,只能用it。本句的make形式没有错,it is important that后面从句要用should +动词原形的虚拟语气,should可省略。
