A young couple bought a big house from two sisters, whom bought it at low price. However, winter wasn’t far away at the time. The couple were a little bit worrying about how they would keep the house warm, though it didn’t have any fireplaces. But later, they thought that if the sisters were able to stay warm and comfortably in the house during the winter, so could they.

Winter arrived and temperatures soon drops below zero. The large house became freezing cold, with frost covered the walls. Finally, the husband couldn’t bear with it anymore.

【解析】

本文是一篇記敘文。講述了一對夫婦買了一個沒有取暖設(shè)施的房子的幽默故事。

1. 考查關(guān)系代詞。先行詞是人，關(guān)系詞在從句作主語，要用that或who；本句又是非限制性定語從句，不能用that，故將whom改為who。

2. 考查冠詞。固定短語：at a low/high price（以一個很低/高的價格），故加a。

3. 考查形容詞。本句主語是The couple（這對夫婦）應該是“這對夫婦對此是很擔心的�！�，主語是人，所以要用形容詞worried（擔心的）作表語；而形容詞worrying意為“令人擔心的”，故將worrying改為worried。

4. 考查連詞。句意：這對夫婦有點擔心如何保持房子的溫暖，因為那里沒有壁爐。前后兩句應該是因果關(guān)系，故將though改為as/because/since/for。

5. 考查形容詞。系動詞stay（保持）要接形容詞作表語，故將comfortably改為comfortable。

6. 考查時態(tài)。本句說的是過去的事情，所以此處謂語動詞應該用一般過去時態(tài)，故將drops改為dropped。

7. 考查現(xiàn)在分詞。with的復合結(jié)構(gòu)，作賓語補足語的cover與賓語frost是主動關(guān)系，所以要用現(xiàn)在分詞；with frost covering the walls.的意思是“有霜覆蓋在墻上”故將covered改為covering。

8. 考查介詞。句意：最后，丈夫再也忍受不了它了。動詞bear是及物動詞，可以直接接賓語it，故將with去掉。

9. 考查代詞。上文說“丈夫再也忍受不了它了”，所以此處是指代這個丈夫，要用代詞he。故將She改為He。

10. 考查名詞。固定結(jié)構(gòu)：one of the+復數(shù)名詞（……之一），故將sister改為sisters。
