30、actly you should call that season depends on where you are.GBefore either word appeared, the season between summer and winter was known as harvest.文章大意：本文是说明文，主题语境是“人与社会”。文章介绍了秋天在英语中两种不同的叫法及其历史渊源。1考查细节支撑句。空前提到了“a new season”，空后讲大不列颠和大西洋彼岸对这一季节叫法的不同，故F项符合语境，选项中的“that season”和“depends on where you are

31、”分别与文中内容对应。2考查承上启下句。空前提到秋天有两种叫法，下文是对此的解释，C项“那么是什么让这个季节变得如此特别？”连接上下文，符合题意。3考查细节支撑句。上文提到了一个季节的两种叫法，结合下文的“The word”可知，空处所填句中应用一个有关秋季另一种叫法的单词，G项“在两个词出现之前，夏季和冬季之间的季节被称为harvest”。符合题意。4考查细节支撑句。上文讲到在16世纪，以英语为母语的人开始用树叶的落下(简称fall)或生长(简称spring)来指代炎热和寒冷的月份之间的那个季节，空后提到了17世纪末，autumn取代fall成为指代第三个季节的标准英国用词，由此推断，空处应

37、文。简要介绍了英国的帽子发展史。解析：1考查介词。根据空前的From及空后的launching可知，此处考查固定用法from.to.“从到”。故用介词to。2考查动词的语态。分析句子结构可知，tell和句子主语the history of the country构成被动关系，故谓语用被动形式。故用be told。3考查非谓语动词。date和句子谓语became之间没有连词，故用其非谓语动词形式，且固定词组date back to意为“追溯到”，和句子主语the flat cap构成逻辑上的主谓关系。故用其现在分词形式。4考查冠词。golden age意为“黄金时代”，是可数名词单数形式，其前无

38、限定词修饰，此处在文中第一次提及，且golden的发音以辅音音素开头。故用不定冠词a修饰。5考查名词。根据语境，且与定冠词the呼应可知，此处用其名词形式。6考查副词。修饰动词应用副词，故用副词gradually修饰动词became。7考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知，hold和句子主语the Royal Wedding构成逻辑上的动宾关系，故用其过去分词作后置定语。本句是一个强调句，即：It is被强调部分that句子剩余部分，对句子主语the Royal Wedding进行强调。8考查形容词的比较级。与语境中的than呼应可知，此处用形容词比较级，作is的表语。9考查主语从句。分析句子结构

39、可知，空处引导主语从句，且在从句中作主语，表示“的事物”。故用连接代词What。10考查动词的时态和主谓一致。根据语境可知，此处为一般性描述，应用一般现在时，且主语为The variety，故此处谓语用第三人称单数形式reflects。.短文改错(2021广东省七校联合体第一次联考)Last weekend, after pay a visit to the city of New York, I visited the National Air and Space Museum of the Smithsonian Institution, where lies in Washington,
