　　(2015·浙江六校联考)

　　One Sunday, I was reading my book while it suddenly occurred to me that it was mother birthday the next day. However, I forgot it complete. I was worried that I didn't prepare any present to her. At that moment, idea of online shopping came to my mind. I clicked the mouse and search some famous shopping websites. Having compared the prices of many dress, I chose one with a reasonable price which I supposed Mum would appreciate it and bought it as soon as possible. The next day I received the dress as expected without get out of my room. You see, online shopping is very convenient that it has made our life colorful.

　　答案：

　　One Sunday, I was reading my book

　　it suddenly occurred to me that it was

　　birthday the next day. However, I forgot it . I was worried that I didn't prepare any present

　　her. At that moment,

　　idea of online shopping came to my mind. I clicked the mouse and

　　some famous shopping websites. Having compared the prices of many ， I chose one with a reasonable price which I supposed Mum would appreciate it and bought it as soon as possible. The next day I received the dress as expected without

　　out of my room. You see, online shopping is

　　convenient that it has made our life colorful.

　　1．命题立意：考查连词。

　　解析：while→when。当我正在读书时，我突然意识到第二天是母亲的生日。英语中be doing sth. when...是一个固定句型，意思是“正在做某事时，突然……”。

　　2．命题立意：考查名词。

　　解析：mother→mother's。此处表示“母亲的生日”，要用名词所有格。

　　3．命题立意：考查副词。

　　解析：complete→completely。修饰动词forgot要用副词形式。

　　4．命题立意：考查介词。

　　解析：to→for。prepare sth. for sb.是固定用法，意思是“为某人准备某物”。

　　5．命题立意：考查冠词。

　　解析：在idea前加the。由于idea后面有介词短语of online shopping修饰，表示特指，所以要用定冠词the。

　　6．命题立意：考查时态。

　　解析：search→searched。根据句子结构判断，and连接两个并列的谓语，故用searched，与clicked并列。

　　7．命题立意：考查名词。

　　解析：dress→dresses。由于该名词前有many修饰，所以要用复数形式。

　　8．命题立意：考查定语从句。

　　解析：去掉it。分析句子结构可知，which I supposed Mum would appreciate是一个定语从句，修饰先行词price，which在从句中作appreciate的宾语，所以应删除it。

　　9．命题立意：考查非谓语动词。

　　解析：get→getting。在介词without之后要用动词­ing形式。

　　10．命题立意：考查连词。

　　解析：very→so。分析句子结构及语境可知，此处为so...that...结构，表示“如此……以至于……”。
