Johnny and I, along with our two young sons, Barry and Doyle, lived in a village in southern Alabama in 1979. We had bought the boys a bicycle for the New Year, and had hidden it in the garage ,where Johnny would assemble (组装)it on New Year5 s Eve after the kids fell asleep. But that day, Johnny had to go to Brookley Air Force Base in Mobile, an hour away, to repair a jet. I had my hands busy with baking, preparing for holiday dinner and caring for two energetic boys. Just as I was making the chocolate cake, a neighbor knocked on the door. It was Beatrice, who was the only person on our road with a telephone. The base had called to say that a heavy tool had come apart suddenly, hitting Johnny's arm and breaking the bone. My brother Otto took me to the base hospital while my mother stayed with the children. We got there to find Johnny with a cast (石膏)on his arm, anxious to get home regardless of the doctor's orders. It was New Year's Eve, Johnny argued, and he had the bike to assemble for his boys. The doctor said he'd consider dismissing him the next morning if Johnny could find someone to drive him home. On New Year's morning, Johnny called the base and was told everyone was off duty； there was no one to drive him home. Johnny kept making calls. At last, a big blue car with the Air Force sign rolled up. I was putting dinner on the table when hearing the car. We were thrilled to see Johnny assisted by a uniformed Air Force officer. With Otto's help, Johnny assembled the boy's gift, and they all had a good time that afternoon. Our hearts were full of gratitude to the people who had gone the extra mile to bring us together. 4.

A person which has a loving heart is that/who the richest in the world. 【分析】 这是一篇记叙文。短文叙述了上星期天。作者在一家餐馆吃饭时，作者注意到作者旁边的桌子上有一 碗饺子，这时一个老人进来了。从他的衣服来看，作者相信他很穷。这个老人吃了这盘饺子，周围的 人都嘲笑他。老人吃完饺子，他走到柜台上的捐款箱前，把一百元放进去，就走了，让我们都感到震 惊和羞愧。所以作者觉得不要以貌取人。一个有爱心的人是世界上最富有的人。 【详解】 第一处：考查省句。分析句子可知，本句为省句，还原后为“ while I was eating”,因为主句与从句的主语 相同，且从句谓语动词为 be 动词，这时 be 动词和主语都可以被省。故将 eat 改成 eating。 第二处：考查 must have been done。分析句子可知，主语 They，与谓语 left 为被动，所以本句为 must have been done 故将 have 后面加上 been。 第三处：考查代词。由“he”可知，这里指从老人的衣服判断，所以代词为 his。故将 her 改成 his。 第四处：考查主谓一致。分析句子可知，主语为 he，系动词为 was。故将 were 改成 was。 第五处：考查形容词。分析句子可知，be 后接形容词做表语。故将 shyly 改成 shy。 第六处：考查一般过去时。由“but some even laughed at him”可知，but 连接连个并列句，且句子为一般过 去时。将 look 改成 looked。 第七处：考查连词。分析句子可知，前后句子语意为并列关系，所以用 and 来连接。故将 but 改成 and。 第八处：考查形容词。本句为 leave“使.处于某种状态”的用法，其用法为 leave+名词/代词+形容词。形容 词作宾语补足语。故去掉 about。 第九处：考查副词。分析句子可知，前后句意表示转折关系，且有标点符号。所以应用 however。故将 Therefore 改成 However。 第十处：考查关系代词。分析句子可知， A person 为先行词，在后面的定语从句中作主语，所以关系代词 为 that/who。故将 which 改成 that/who。
