25、 most.The people there were friendly and smiling faces were around us all the way,which made us .We had a wonderful time there and it was unforgettable journey.I look forward to travelling there again.第一处:考查介词。by air 意为“坐飞机”符合句意。故将on改成by。第二处:考查形容词。分析句子可知这里要用一个形容词来修饰the sky,clearly为副词,故将clearly改成clea
26、r。第三处:考查动词语态。分析句子可知What从句为主语从句,what在从句中作主语,与impress之间是主谓关系,要用主动语态,所以was是多余的,所以将was去掉。第四处:many与much都可以表示“许多的”,many 修饰可数名词,much修饰不可数名词。fishes为可数名词,应该由many修饰,故将much改成many。第五处:考查时态。根据went,was,saw等可以判断全文时态为一般过去时,而这里的pay为一般现在时不符合全文时态,故将pay改成paid。第六处:考查固定搭配。dream of doing sth.为固定搭配,意为 “梦想做某事”,of是介词,后面要用动名词形式,故将go改成going。第七处:考查名词复数。photo为可数名词,且由many修饰,说明这里要用其复数形式,故将photo改成pho
