(1)句中whichever和whatever均是由两个词合在一起构成的单词，在构词法中称为合成法。
(2)构词法
在英语中，词的构成主要有三种：合成法、转化法和派生法。
①合成法：由两个或更多的词合成一个词，有的用连字符号，有的直接写在一起，还有的由分开的两个词构成。
如：合成名词：football足球　teamwork合作
合成形容词：English­speaking说英语的　good­looking漂亮的
“名词＋名词”构成的合成名词：car park停车场　greenhouse effect温室效应
②转化法
英语中，有的名词可作动词，有的形容词可作副词或动词，这种把一种词性用作另一种词性而词形不变的方法叫作转化法。
如：hand n. 手 vt. 递送
light adj. 轻的 n. 光 vt. 点燃
③派生法
派生法是由一个词根加上前缀或后缀构成另一个词。
如：legal→illegal(加前缀)　beauty→beautify(加后缀)

②[教材原句]Futuroscope is not only for individuals, but is also the perfect mix of fun and learning for class outings. (P38)
观测未来主题公园不仅仅适合个人，也适合学生全班出游，因为它是娱乐和学习的完美结合。


(1)单句改错
①Not only you but also she have to attend the ceremony.
_______________________________________________________________
②Not only we raise money for them, but we also should help them rebuild their home.
_________________________________________________________________
答案：①have→has　②第一个we前加should
(2)单句写作
①________ does the sun give us light ________ it ________ gives us heat.
太阳不仅给我们光还给我们热。
②He works ________ on weekdays ________ on weekends as well.
他不仅平时工作，周末也工作。
③Franklin was considered ________ an inventor, ________ a statesman.
富兰克林不仅被看作发明家而且也是一名政治家。
答案：①Not only; but; also　②not only; but also　③not only; but also


(1)not only ... but also ... 用于连接两个表示并列关系的成分，着重强调后者，其意为“不仅……而且……”；其中的also有时可以省略。
(2)not only ... but also ... 连接两个句子，且not only位于句首时，not only后面的句子要用部分倒装，but also后接的句子不用倒装。
(3)not only ... but also ... 连接的两个成分作主语，其谓语动词的数通常与靠近的主语保持一致。

not only不能分开使用；but also既可以连用，也可以分开；also可以省略。

篇章导读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了EPCOT(未来的实验原型社区)这个缩略词的意义和由来。
1．immediately　考查副词。所填词在此处修饰动词短语think of，故用所给词的副词形式immediately。
2．to see　考查非谓语动词。分析该句成分可知，所填词在此处作状语，表示目的，故用所给词的不定式形式to see。
3．with　考查介词。come up with意为“想出，提出”，为固定短语。故填with。
4．different　考查词性转换。根据此空前的系动词were可知，此处作表语，故用所给词的形容词形式different。

Ⅳ.短文改错
Recent years have seen a tendency in China that tour is growing faster. According to a recently survey made by some experts, about 47% urban residents traveled regularly. More people will join in the army of travelers in the future.
Facing this tendency, we can't help explore some underlying factors that are responsible. In the very first place，as the further development of reform and opening up, Chinese people's living standards have been greatly improved, and therefore, most of whom can afford to travel around. What's more, it is believed that people now take more positive attitude to tourism, and regard it as a lifestyle. In additions, tourism facilities are becoming better and better. For example, transportation develops fast, but many scenic spots are available now.
答案：
Recent years have seen a tendency in China that is growing faster. According to a survey made by some experts, about 47% urban residents regularly. More people will join the army of travelers in the future.
Facing this tendency, we can't help some underlying factors that are responsible. In the very first place, the further development of reform and opening up, Chinese people's living standards have been greatly improved，and therefore, most of can afford to travel around. What's more, it is believed that people now take more positive attitude to tourism, and regard it as a lifestyle. In ， tourism facilities are becoming better and better. For example, transportation develops fast, many scenic spots are available now.
难项分析：
第一处：tour→tourism　考查名词。根据语境可知，此处指中国的旅游业，应用tourism，而tour一般指一次具体的观光旅游。故将tour改为tourism。
第七处：whom→them　考查代词。此句中and连接并列分句，因而其后不可以接定语从句；后一分句缺少主语，of后的代词指代上文提到的Chinese people，故将whom改为them作介词of的宾语。
第十处：but→and　考查连词。transportation develops fast与many scenic spots are available之间为并列与递进的关系，而不是转折关系，故用连词and连接。

(2019·江苏高考)In the 1960s, while studying the volcanic history of Yellowstone National Park, Bob Christiansen became puzzled about something that, oddly, had not troubled anyone before：he couldn't find the park's volcano. It had been known for a long time that Yellowstone was volcanic in nature—that's what accounted for all its hot springs and other steamy features. But Christiansen couldn't find the Yellowstone volcano anywhere.
Most of us, when we talk about volcanoes, think of the classic cone (圆锥体) shapes of a Fuji or Kilimanjaro, which are created when erupting magma (岩浆) piles up. These can form remarkably quickly. In 1943, a Mexican farmer was surprised to see smoke rising from a small part of his land. In one week he was the confused owner of a cone five hundred feet high. Within two years it had topped out at almost fourteen hundred feet and was more than half a mile across. Altogether there are some ten thousand of these volcanoes on Earth, all but a few hundred of them extinct. There is, however, a second less known type of volcano that doesn't involve mountain building. These are volcanoes so explosive that they burst open in a single big crack, leaving behind a vast hole, the caldera. Yellowstone obviously was of this second type, but Christiansen couldn't find the caldera anywhere.
Just at this time NASA decided to test some new high­altitude cameras by taking photographs of Yellowstone. A thoughtful official passed on some of the copies to the park authorities on the assumption that they might make a nice blow­up for one of the visitors' centers. As soon as Christiansen saw the photos, he realized why he had failed to spot the caldera: almost the whole park—2.2 million acres—was caldera. The explosion had left a hole more than forty miles across—much too huge to be seen from anywhere at ground level. At some time in the past Yellowstone must have blown up with a violence far beyond the scale of anything known to humans.
篇章导读：本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了鲍勃探寻黄石国家公园火山的故事。
4．What puzzled Christiansen when he was studying Yellowstone?
A．Its complicated geographical features.
B．Its ever­lasting influence on tourism.
C．The mysterious history of the park.
D．The exact location of the volcano.
答案：D　细节理解题。根据第一段第一句可知，鲍勃感到困惑的是，他在黄石国家公园没有找到火山，即：火山的准确位置。故选D项。
5．What does the second paragraph mainly talk about?
A．The shapes of volcanoes.
B．The impacts of volcanoes.
C．The activities of volcanoes.
D．The heights of volcanoes.
答案：A　段落大意题。文章的第二段主要介绍了两种类型火山的形成过程，一种是形成圆锥体形状的火山，富士山和乞力马扎罗山就是其典型代表；另外一种是通过爆裂岩浆而形成巨大裂口的火山，而黄石国家公园恰恰就是这一种，所以本段主要讲述了火山的形态，故选A项。
6．What does the underlined word “blow­up” in the last paragraph most probably mean?
A．Hot­air balloon. B．Digital camera.
C．Big photograph. D．Bird's view.
答案：C　词义猜测题。根据第三段“... a nice blow­up for one of the visitors' centers.As soon as Christiansen saw the photos ...”可知，the photos所指的就是前面提及的blow­up，所以推知blow­up相当于photo(photograph)，故选C项。

篇章导读：本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了英国最受欢迎的旅游景点之一Dartmoor National Park。
1．them　考查代词。介词of后面用代词宾格，这里指many great destinations，故填them。
2．are　考查时态和主谓一致。这里在讲述一个事实，句子用一般现在时态，且主语是regions，复数形式，故填are。
3．for　考查介词。句意：它们位于海边，以拥有英国最晴朗的天气而闻名。固定词组：be known for “因……而闻名”。故填for。
4．was voted　考查动词的时态和语态。句子主语Dartmoor National Park和谓语动词vote之间是一种被动关系，再根据in 2016，可知句子用一般过去时态的被动语态。故填was voted。
5．which　考查定语从句。此处walks是先行词，指物，在介词后面指物用which引导定语从句，故填which。
6．beaches　考查名词。根据“plenty of”可知，此处用名词复数，故填beaches。
7．slightly　考查词性转换。此处cooler是比较级，应该填程度副词，修饰比较级加强语气，故填slightly。
8．being surrounded　考查非谓语动词。根据句意可知，西南地区被美丽的大自然包围。此处apart from “除……之外”后面用动名词作宾语，且句子主语the South­West和surround之间是一种被动关系，所以是动名词一般式的被动式作宾语，故填being surrounded。
9．and　考查连词。根据句意可知，咖啡馆与酒吧是并列关系，故填and。
10．relaxing　考查词性转换。此处指“令人放松的”夏日午后，形容词修饰名词，同时夏日午后是物，故填relaxing。
