　　(一)初赛试题解析:

　　81.正确。82. were改为was。此行考查主谓一致,该句的主语是one,所以谓语部分应用was。83. entire前加the。the entire family表示"全家人"。84.正确。85. see改为get。get together意为"相聚,聚会"。86. set前加to。该句中的it是形式主语,真正的主语是后面的不定式复合结构for sb. to do sth.。87. day改为days。此行考查名词单复数的错误,前面有限定词three,故应用复数days。88. happy改为unhappy。根据上下文可知,该句句意为:尝试了几周计划后,大家几乎都不愉快,故将happy改为unhappy。89.去掉to。此处考查have sb. do sth.这一结构。90.去掉on。表时间的名词前面有every,next,last等修饰词时,前面就不能再加介词了,直接用名词短语作状语。91. continue改为continued。由于本文的主体时态为一般过去式,故此处应将continue改为continued。92. part后加in。take part in为固定短语,意为"参加(活动等)"。93. bad改为different或good。根据上下文可知,此处表示"他们开始看到晚上聚会朝好的方向发展"。94. Before改为After。根据行文逻辑可知,此处表示"几个月之后"。95. strong改为stronger。根据上文可知,此处表示"建立了更强的家庭关系",故用形容词的比较级。

　　(二)决赛试题解析:

　　81.第一个to改为for。thank sb. for sth.为固定短语,意为"为某事而感谢某人"。82. photo前加a。photo是可数名词,根据下文的提示,此处应用单数形式,故前面需要加不定冠词a。83. was改为is。对照片的描述是现在事实,应用一般现在时,故应将was改为is。84. have改为get。get on well with sb.为固定短语,意为"与某人相处得好"。85. so改为but。该行文逻辑有误,根据上下文,此处表示转折含义。86. by改为on。spend表"花费时间做某事"时,后面应跟on sth.或in doing sth.。87.去掉the。"英语语言"有两种表示方法:①English②the English language。另外,根据下文的Spanish,此处只能去掉the。88.去掉should。根据句意"大学毕业后,我不知道要干什么",可知此处无须用表示语气的情态动词should,因为它和want to意义重复。89.正确。90. study改为studied。由Last summer可知,"在芝加哥一所学校学习"发生在过去,故用一般过去式。91. what后加else。根据上下文可知,此处表示"我还有什么别的事能告诉你呢?"92. have改为had。根据下文separated可知,have应用过去式had。93.正确。94. just前加in。be interested in为固定搭配,意为"对……感兴趣"。95.第二个how改为what。此处应用what来引导宾语从句,因为what又能在从句中作介词in的宾语,而how只能作状语。
