Question

【题目】Home on the Way

People need homes: children assume their 【1】 (parent) place as home; boarders call school "home" on weekdays; and【2】(marry) couples work together to build new homes.

So how about people who have to travel for extended periods of time? Don't they have the right【3】(own)a home? Of course they do.

Some regular 【4】(travel) take their own belongings: like bed sheets, pillowcases and family photos to make them feel【5】at home no matter where they are. Some stay for long periods in the same hotel and as 【6】 result become very familiar with service and attend- ants. Others may simply put some flowers by the hotel window to make things more homely.

Furthermore, driving a camping car during one's travels and【7】(sleep) in the vehicle at night are just like home.

Nowadays, fewer people 【8】(work) in their local towns, so【9】do they develop a sense of belonging? Whenever we step out of our local boundaries, there is always another “home" waiting to 【10】 (find). Wherever we are, with just a little bit of effort and imagination, we can make the place where we stay "home".

考察学生的词汇，语法运用能力以及对文章的理解。

【1】考查名词的所有格。句意：孩子们认为父母的地方就是家。根据句意可知这里在名词place前面加所有格，表示“父母的”，故用parents’。

【2】考查过去分词。句意：已婚的夫妻一起努力建造新家。这里用过去分词做形容词，表示完成，意思为“已婚的”，故用married。

【3】句意：他们没有权力拥有家吗？have the right to do有权利去做，故用to own。

【4】考查名词。句意：一些定期旅行的人会带着他们的东西。根据句意可知这里用名词复数travelers/travellers。

【5】考查介词。定期旅行的人带着床单、枕套和家人的照片是为了让他们感觉像在家里一样。feel like有…的感觉，想要…。故这里用介词like。

【6】考查固定结构。句意：一些旅行者长时间呆在同一家旅馆中，结果，他们会非常熟悉那里的服务和服务人员。本题考查固定结构as a result结果。故用a。

【7】考查动名词做主语。句意：而且，旅行期间开着露营车，晚上睡在车里就像在家里一样。这里用动名词sleeping和driving做并列的主语。故用sleeping。

【8】现在，越来越少的人在他们当地的城镇工作。此句描述的是现在的事，可以用一般现在时或者现在进行时。故用work/are working。

【9】句意：现在，越来越少的人在他们当地的城镇工作，那么他们怎样才能有归属感呢？根据句意可知用how。

【10】考查不定式的被动形势。句意：无论何时我们走出当地的界限，总有另一个家等着被发现。根据句意可知这里需要用被动语态，故用be found。
