24、及主谓一致。本句描述客观情况，要用一般现在时；主语The words为复数且与use之间为被动关系，故填are used。9. making考查非谓语动词。此处为动词­ing形式短语作结果状语，表示气温升高，雨量增加的结果。10. and考查连词。此处是两个动词­ing形式短语并列作主语，表示清明节的两个重要活动，故填并列连词and。11. to remember考查非谓语动词。根据语境可知，此处为不定式短语作后置定语，表示“纪念已故亲人们的两项重要习俗”。12. their考查代词。修饰名词tombs用形容词性物主代词。13. trees考查名词复数。tree是可数名词，

25、此处泛指树木返青，表示复数意义。14. beauty考查词形转换。空前有定冠词the修饰，空处作appreciate的宾语，应用名词形式。beauty作“美；美丽”讲为不可数名词。15. to考查介词。date back to意为“追溯到”，为固定搭配。16. healthy考查形容词。形容词作定语修饰名词body和mind。句意：春天户外踏青，给生活带来快乐，还能够促进身心健康。三、短文改错(四川攀枝花市2020届高三上第一次统考) It was Mother's Day.

27、nd put it in a vase. After that we went back to our own rooms, silently wait for Mom. When Mom returned to home and saw what had happened, she feels very surprised and happy.【答案解析】第一处：把good前的the改为a。考查冠词。此处表泛指，idea作“主意”讲是可数名词且good首字母发辅音音素，故将表特指的定冠词the改为a。第二处：把specially改为special。考查形容词。修饰不定代词something，

28、作后置定语，用形容词。第三处：把advices改为advice。考查名词。advice意为“建议”，是不可数名词，没有复数形式。第四处：把what改为which。考查定语从句。本句为非限制性定语从句，先行词housework指物，先行词在从句中作主语，故用关系代词which引导。第五处：把but改为and。考查连词。句中陈述的两件事情是并列关系，而非转折关系，故将but改为and。第六处：在make前加to。考查非谓语动词。此处为动词不定式作目的状语，故在make前加不定式符号to。第七处：把it改为them。考查代词。此处指代的是some flowers，表复数含义，故将it改为them。第八处：把wait改为waiting。考查非谓语动词。此处为伴随状语，因句子的主语we与wait在逻辑上是主谓关系，故用动词­ing形式。第九处：删除returned后的to。考查介词。home为副词，return home表“回家”，故此处returned后不用接介词。第十处：把feels改为felt。考查动词时态。讲述过去发生的事情，用一般过去时，故将feels改为felt。
