How are you? Sorry I haven’t written for so long. I’ve been quite busy arranging my holiday to Africa with my older brother, Colin. Have you ever gone there? We leave London in 15 July, and we’ll be taking a flight to Morocco in northern Africa. We’re going to ride camels through Sahara Desert. It’s the biggest desert in the world— about the size of the US! I expect they will be very hot, dry and dusty there. We’ll be travelling by camels with local guides, camping in tents and sleep on the ground. I had heard that, in the Sahara, there is no shade during the day, but the stars seem especially brilliant on clear nights. Altogether, the trip will take six days, that means I’ll have to sit on a camel for almost a week—how uncomfortably! I hope my camel likes me!

Answer 1

【答案】

【解析】1.句意：你去哪里了？根據(jù)句意可知已經(jīng)回來，have gone to---，表示去某地了；have been to---，表示曾經(jīng)去過某地，故把gone---been。

2.在某日用介詞on，故把in---on。

3.句意：穿過the Sahara Desert.是專用名詞，故加the。

4.句意：我期盼著它很熱。此處是the Sahara Desert.故把them---it。

5.句意：我們將騎駱駝旅行。by camel騎駱駝，故把camels---camel。

6.此處是并列的現(xiàn)在分詞做伴隨狀態(tài)，故把sleep---sleeping。

7.句意：我已經(jīng)聽說過在那里白天沒有樹蔭，并且星星顯得格外明亮。根據(jù)句意可知主句用現(xiàn)在完成時態(tài)，故把had---have。

8. 句意：我已經(jīng)聽說過在那里白天沒有樹蔭，并且在晴朗的晚上星星顯得格外明亮。賓語從句里面是并列句，遞進(jìn)關(guān)系，故把but---and。

9.句意：旅行將六天，這意味著我將在駱駝上幾乎一周。前面整個句子做先行詞，所以后面的非限制性定語從句用which引導(dǎo)，故把that---which。

10. 這意味著我將在駱駝上幾乎一周，所以那將是多么不舒服。此處應(yīng)該是一個省略的感嘆句，故把uncomfortably--- uncomfortable。
