　　Cities can be frightened places. The majority of__1__

　　the population live in noisy massive tower blocks. The

　　sense of belonging to a community tends to appear__2__

　　when you live thirty floors up in a skyscraper. Strange__3__

　　enough, whereas in the past the inhabitants of one

　　street all knew each other, nowadays people on the

　　same floor in tower blocks even say hello to each __4__

　　other.

　　Country life, on the other hand, differs from this

　　kind of isolated existence in that a sense of community

　　generally keep the inhabitants of a small village togeth- __5__

　　er. People have the advantage of knowing that there is

　　always someone to turn to when they need help. So __6__

　　country life has disadvantages too. For example,

　　shopping becomes a major problem and for anything

　　slightly out of the ordinary you have to go for an expe- __7__

　　dition to the nearest large town. The country has the

　　advantage of peaceful and quiet, but suffers from the __8__

　　disadvantages of being cut off. The city has noise and

　　population which do harm to human health. But one of

　　their main advantages is that you are at the centre of __9__

　　things and that life doesn’t come to an end even at ten

　　at night. Some people have found a compromise be-

　　参考答案及解析:

　　1.把frightened改为frightening

　　frightened是“受到惊吓的”，表明心理状态，而frightening表示“令人害怕的”，表示事物性质。

　　Strangely enough，是固定短语，经常用作插入语，意思是“说也奇怪，最奇怪的是”。

　　4.在say前面加上don’t

　　此处说的是，现在住在同一层楼的人甚至见面都不打招呼。

　　5.把keep改为keeps

　　in that 引导的句子主语应该是 a sense，故谓语应为单数。本句的意思是，农村生活与这种隔绝孤立的生活不同，因为一种归属感把小村里的居民联系在一起。

　　6.把so 改为but/yet

　　上文提到了乡村生活的好处，下文是转折，要用but或者yet。

　　7.把for改为on

　　“去远征”应该用go on a expedition，而go for 的意思是“去找，努力获取，拥护”。

　　8.把peaceful改为peace

　　of 后面不应该用形容词，所以应该改为peace。这里需要注意的是quiet既是名词又是形容词，不要被迷惑。

　　9.把their改为its

　　此处的代词应该指代上文的 the city。

　　10.删除leaving后面的for，或者把for改为from

　　leave表示“离开某地”，而leave for表示“离开某地去另外一
