28、r parents go away”呼应。3.a考查冠词。break意为“休息”,是可数名词,此处表泛指,故用不定冠词修饰。4.totally考查副词。修饰形容词应用副词,故用副词totally修饰形容词OK。5.surprises考查名词的数。surprise此处意为“意想不到的事”,是可数名词,且被a few修饰,故用复数形式。6.which考查定语从句。此处为非限制性定语从句,先行词为the spare bedroom, in which= where属于介词前置。7.tries/should tryin case引导的状语从句中,从句用虚拟语气,常用should+do的形式;也可以不用

34、”。描述发生在过去的行为动作用一般过去时态。write的过去时是wrote。envelope为可数名词,又因以元音音素开头,因此不定冠词an。where引导非限制性定语从句,先行词是Portugal,故用where。这是强调句型,强调时间状语only in 1997,故when改为that。Though引导让步状语从句,之后是主句,并列连词but多余。of all ages表示“所有年龄段的”,作readers的定语。句型It is claimed that.意为“据称”。a renewed后接名词形式。a renewed interest意为“重燃的兴趣”。to the pleasure of sb.用副词much修饰。
