49、 of peoples lives”是一个非限制性定语从句,关系词在从句中作主语,指物,所以用which。3.made考查非谓语动词。make与其逻辑主语a survey之间是被动关系,所以用过去分词作定语,填made。4.a考查冠词。泛指“一位大学生”,且university的首字母发音是辅音,所以填不定冠词a。5.themselves考查反身代词。句意:自行车它们本身不是全新的事物。表示“它们本身”,填themselves。6.is based考查时态和语态。表示主语现在的状态,用一般现在时,且the operating model of bike-sharing与base on之间是被动

50、关系,用被动语态,所以填is based。7.encouraging考查固定用法。介词in之后用v-ing形式作宾语,所以填encouraging。8.It考查形式主语。“that China is innovating and no longer copying western ideas”是句子真正的主语,这里需要一个形式主语,所以填It。9.especially考查副词。修饰形容词true用副词,所以填especially。10.largest考查最高级。中国在世界上拥有最大的手机使用量。表示“最大的”,用最高级,所以填largest。.短文改错(2022湖北黄冈中学二模)Good mo
