A The sun was hot; however, we still enjoyed our picnic. B The sun was hot, however; we still enjoyed our picnic. C The sun was hot; however we still enjoyed our picnic. D The sun was hot, however we still enjoyed our picnic. 詳解:A semicolon is used to join two independent clauses; a conjunctive adverb like 'however' is typically followed by a comma. Option A correctly places a semicolon before 'however' and a comma after it. B incorrectly places the semicolon after 'however'. C misses the comma after 'however'. D uses a comma alone, which creates a comma splice. 第 2 題 Choose the correctly punctuated sentence: A The teacher said: “You must submit your homework on time.” B The teacher said “You must submit your homework on time.” C The teacher said, “You must submit your homework on time.” D The teacher said; “You must submit your homework on time.” 詳解:When introducing a direct quotation, a comma is typically used after the reporting verb (e.g., 'said'). Option C correctly uses a comma. A uses a colon, which is less common and often used for formal lists or quotations. B lacks any punctuation. D uses a semicolon, which is incorrect. 第 3 題 Which sentence is an example of a comma splice? A I went to the store, and I bought some milk. B I went to the store; I bought some milk. C I went to the store, I bought some milk. D I went to the store because I needed milk. 詳解:A comma splice occurs when two independent clauses are joined only by a comma. Option C has two independent clauses separated by a comma without a coordinating conjunction. A uses a comma with 'and' (correct). B uses a semicolon (correct). D uses 'because' to make a dependent clause. 第 4 題 Which sentence uses the colon correctly? A The recipe requires: flour, eggs, and sugar. B The recipe requires three ingredients: flour, eggs, and sugar. C The recipe requires: flour eggs and sugar. D The recipe requires three ingredients; flour, eggs, and sugar. 詳解:A colon should be preceded by an independent clause and used to introduce a list. Option B correctly uses a colon after 'ingredients.' A places a colon after a verb ('requires'), which is generally avoided. C lacks commas and a colon after a verb. D uses a semicolon, which is incorrect for introducing a list. 第 5 題 Rewrite the sentence to eliminate the dangling modifier: 'Walking through the park, the flowers were beautiful.' A Walking through the park, I saw beautiful flowers. B The flowers were beautiful walking through the park. C Walking through the park, beautiful flowers were seen. D While walking through the park, the flowers were beautiful. 詳解:A dangling modifier occurs when the subject of the modifier is not stated. In the original, 'walking' seems to modify 'flowers,' which is illogical. Option A adds 'I' as the subject, making the sentence clear. B and C still have dangling modifiers. D shifts to a subordinate clause but still leaves the subject ambiguous. 第 6 題 Which sentence maintains parallel structure? A She likes swimming, to run, and biking. B She likes swimming, running, and biking. C She likes to swim, running, and biking. D She likes to swim, to run, and biking. 詳解:Parallel structure requires that items in a series share the same grammatical form. Option B uses three gerunds ('swimming, running, and biking'). A mixes gerund and infinitive. C mixes infinitive and gerund. D mixes infinitives and gerund. 第 7 題 Which sentence is in the active voice? A The ball was thrown by John. B John threw the ball. C The ball is being thrown by John. D The ball had been thrown by John. 詳解:Active voice means the subject performs the action. In B, 'John' (subject) performs the action 'threw.' The other options are passive, where the subject receives the action. 第 8 題 Which sentence uses the apostrophe correctly? A The dogs tail is wagging. B The dog's tail is wagging. C The dogs' tail is wagging. D The dog is tail is wagging. 詳解:An apostrophe is used to show possession. For a singular noun, add 's. Option B correctly indicates that one dog owns the tail. A lacks an apostrophe and is incorrect. C uses an apostrophe after the s, implying multiple dogs share a tail (which is possible but less common; singular is more natural). D is grammatically wrong. 第 9 題 Which of the following sentences contains a misplaced modifier? A She almost drove her children to school every day. B She drove her children to school almost every day. C She drove her children almost to school every day. D She drove almost her children to school every day. 詳解:A misplaced modifier is placed incorrectly in relation to the word it modifies. In A, 'almost' modifies 'drove,' suggesting she nearly drove but didn't, which is likely not the intended meaning. B is correct: 'almost' modifies 'every day.' C suggests she drove them near school but not to it. D is awkward and changes meaning. 第 10 題 Which sentence is written in a formal style appropriate for an academic essay? A The results were pretty good, you know. B The results were significant and supported the hypothesis. C The results were awesome, dude! D The results, like, showed something important. 詳解:Formal academic style avoids colloquialisms, slang, and informal phrases. Option B uses precise language ('significant', 'supported the hypothesis') and is appropriate. The other options include informal expressions like 'pretty good', 'you know', 'awesome', 'dude', 'like', which are not suitable for academic writing. 提交答案 重設 0% 0 / 0 U 繼續努力! 基礎分+0 XP 難度加成×1.0 速度加分+0 XP 連對 Combo+0 XP 本次 XP+0 XP 📖 查看詳解 📤 分享成績 🎯 練更多 英文 🏠 返回列表
