Answer 1

分析 本文讲述了有关亚历山大的故事，亚历山大是一位军事天才和探险家，他也有一个远大的理想--建立一个人们能够
和平相处的国家．他带领士兵向东穿过阿富汗和中亚，建立了很多城市，命令士兵，商人和学者到那里居住．公元前326年
亚历山大向南转战印度，但是那时他的士兵已经疲惫虚弱了，最终无功而返．亚历山大在33岁的时候病故，国家他的将军们
瓜分．

解答 Alexander was a military genius or great explorer．But he also had a great ambition．He wanted to rule a country that
                                              and                                                                                                                 where
people could live in peace with one another．From 330to 327BC，Alexander led his soldier east，through Afghanistan
                                                                                                                          soldiers
and into Central Asia．As he travel，he built more cities．He ordered soldiers，merchants，and scholars from many
                                           travelled
lands to settle here．
                    there
In 326 BC Alexander turned south，into India．But by now his men were tired and weak．They were far∧home in an
                                                                                then                                                                 from
unknown land．The soldiers refused to go farther．Unwillingly，Alexander turned back．By 323BC，he reached for

Babylon in Iraq．There he caught∧fever and died at the age of 33．His country was divided betweenhis generals．
                                                  a                                                                                      among
1．or改为and；考查连词，根据句意 military genius 和great explorer是并列关系，所以用and．
2．that改为where；考查定语从句，在这个定语从句中，先行词a country 表示地点，所以要用关系副词where．
3．solider改为soliders；考查名词，solider是可数名词，Alexander的士兵不会只有一个，所以要用复数形式．
4．travel改为travelled；考查动词的时态，本文讲述的是过去的事情，所以要用一般过去时．
5．here改为 there；考查副词，根据句意"他命令士兵，商人和学者到那里去居住"可知此处为远指，故用there．
6．now 改为then；考查副词，根据上句中提到的时间状语In 326 BC 可知此处应为"by then"，意为"直到那时"．
7．far后面加 from；考查固定短语，be far from是固定短语，意为"距离…很远"．
8．去掉for；考查介词，reach作为"到达"讲是及物动词，后面可以直接跟宾语，故去掉介词for．
9．fever前面加 a；考查冠词，catch a  fever是固定搭配，意为"发烧"．
10．between改为 among；考查介词，between指"在两者之间"，among用于三者或三者以上，结合上下文语境，his generals
    应为三者或以上，故此处用among．

点评 在短文改错当中，首先要从整体掌握短文大意，结合上下文语境并充分运用平时掌握的基础知识，习惯用法，短语搭配等对短文进
行分析，以便找出文中的错误所在并加以改正．
