I also joined in an English club to get more chances to speak.Practice made perfect.Now I can talk fluent in English.Just as the saying goes,“Every bean has its black.” Dont afraid of making mistakes.Learn from mistakes,and success is just waiting for us.【答案】Mistakes are unavoidable in life.But attitudes towards may make a difference.I still remember how my spoken English was improved.In beginning,I always kept silent in our oral class to avoid mistakes. Before long my teacher got to know about my situation. He encouraged me to speak out I thought.Whenever I made mistakes and felt ,my teacher and my classmates would help me figure out how I have avoided them. I also joined an English club to get more chances to speak.Practice perfect.Now I can talk in English.Just as the saying goes,“Every bean has its black.” Dont afraid of making mistakes.Learn from mistakes,and success is just waiting for us.第一处:itthem。考查代词。根据语境可知,第二句中“towards”的宾语指代的是第一句的主语“Mistakes”,故用them。第二处:athe。考查冠词。根据前一句“I still remember how my spoken English was improved.”可知,该处特指上文中“提高英语口语水平”的开始,故用定冠词。第三处:makemaking。考查非谓语动词。avoid doing sth.为固定用法,意为“避免做某事”。第四处:thatwhat。考查宾语从句。分析该句结构可知,该句为含有宾语从句的主从复合句,what既作宾语从句的引导词,也作从句中及物动词thought的宾语,而that在从句中不能作成分,故将that改为what。第五处:discouragingdiscouraged。考查形容词。根据从句主语I可知,该处应用discouraged形容人,意为“沮丧的”;discouraging形容事物,意为“令人沮丧的”。 第六处:mustcould。考查情态动词。根据语境可知,该句使用了虚拟语气,表示“过去本能够做却没有做”,故用could have done。第七处:删除in。考查固定搭配。该处指“参加英语俱乐部”,参加某个组织用join,而join in为固定搭配,意为“参加活动”,故删除in。第八处:mademakes。考查主谓一致和时态。句意:熟能生巧。该句为一般真理,故用一般现在时;该句主语为Practice,为不可数名词,谓语动词应用单数形式,故用makes。第九处:fluentfluently。考查副词。根据该句中的动词“talk”可知,此处修饰动词,故用副词形式。第十处:afraid前加be。考查祈使句。分析句子结构可知,该句为祈使句,afraid为形容词,故afraid前加动词原形be。
