68、xperience.【答案】16. G 17. F 18. E 19. B 20. C【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了和室友相处得愉快的几点建议。【16题详解】根据空后的“Follow these tips to make sure you and your roommate keep things pleasant and supportive throughout the year (or even years)!”可知，遵循这些建议，确保你和你的室友在一年（甚至几年）中保持愉快和支持！此处应该会提到与室友同住，这样才会引出下文的建议，故G项（与室友同住既是一个挑战，也是你大学生活

69、的重要组成部分）符合语境。【17题详解】空前的几个问句是关于个人喜好的，再根据空后的“communicating what you need is one of the best ways to avoid problems before they become problems.”可知，在问题发展成为问题之前，与室友交流你的需求是避免问题的最好方法之一，因此此处说的是尽早与室友交流你的个人喜好以避免问题的出现，故F项（尽快让你的室友知道你的小喜好）符合语境。【18题详解】根据空前的“Is your roommate always forgetting her things for the s

70、hower, and taking yours? ”可知，你的室友总是忘记带她的洗浴用品而拿了你的吗？此处承接上文，提到一个并列的问题，E项（你的衣服被借走的速度比你洗的速度快吗？）符合语境。【19题详解】此处为本段主题句，根据本段内容，特别是根据“Dont borrow, use, or take anything without getting permission first.”可知，未经允许，不要借用、使用或拿走室友的任何东西，因此本段主要讲的是要尊重室友的私人物品，故B项（尊重所有属于你室友的东西）符合语境。【20题详解】根据空前的“Be mindful of who you bri

101、助人。分析可知，very helpful 为形容词词组，应作表语，句子结构不完整。需要添加be动词才能与之前的动词短语worked hard 为并列结构，同一个主语I。根据时态为一般过去时，故在and后加was。2.考查冠词。句意：餐厅里的每个人，包括一些老主顾都喜欢我。分析可知，此处的restaurant为作者之前提及的作为兼职服务员的餐馆，应用定冠词the 表示特指。故将a改为the。3.考查名词复数。句意：餐厅里的每个人，包括一些老主顾都喜欢我。分析可知，customer 之前有some修饰，应用复数形式。故将customer改为customers。4.考查介词。句意：有一天，一对五十多

103、。故将will改为would。8.考查非谓语。句意：听了我的话，妻子脸上露出了不悦的表情。分析可知，句中的谓语动词为appeared,“hear my words”，应是分词作状语，主语“a look of displeasure”指客人的不满意的表情，因此可以判断应用现在分词作状语。故将Heard改为Hearing。9.考查形容词。句意：看到我困惑的表情，她丈夫向我解释说，西方人不喜欢“老”这个词。分析可知，confuse 动词，意为“使感到困惑”，其形容词有confused（感到困惑的），修饰人；confusing（令人困惑的），修饰物。之后的look, 指“我的表情”，当修饰与人相关的词

104、时，也用-ed形式的形容词修饰，如look，expression，voice等。故将confusing 改为confused。10.考查连词。句意：我向他们道歉，意识到了解文化差异的重要性分析可知，apologized 与之后的动词realized为并列谓语，且为顺承递进关系，应用and连接。故将but改为and。第二节 书面表达(满分25分)52.假定你是李华，暑期在英国旅游时得到当地导游Mr. Smith的悉心照顾,回国后给他写一封邮件表达谢意。主要内容：1.回忆旅行中美好时光; 2.遇到的困难和帮助；3.邀请他来中国旅游。注意：1）词数100 左右（开头已给，不计入总词数）；2）可适当增

112、t enables me to have a deeper insight into British culture and have a wonderful time there. 2)I do hope someday youll come to China and let me show you around my hometown. 1)句使用了强调句式it is that 结构。2)句使用了 “do” 强调谓语。此外，作者使用了较好的词组搭配：express my gratitude; enable sb. to do; have a deeper insight into; have a wonderful time; be deeply impressed by ; show sb. around sp.全文中没有中国式英语的句式，显示了很高的驾驭英语的能力。另外，文章思路清晰、层次分明，上下句转换自然，为文章增色添彩。
