英语嗨吧

1. words 考查名词的数。word表示“话语”时是可数名词，这里指曾祖母日记里的话，所以用复数形式。
2. travelled 考查时态。根据时间状语in the 1950s可知，句子描述过去发生的事情，要用一般过去时，travel的过去式是travelled。
3. fresher 考查比较级。根据than today可知，这里要用形容词fresh的比较级形式fresher，表示“更清新的”。
4. a 考查冠词。take a train是固定搭配，表示“乘火车”。
5. buildings 考查名词和名词的数。空处应用名词作主语，本句中的谓语动词使用的是复数形式，因此本句的主语也应该是复数，因此填写buildings。
6. but 考查连词。前半句说传统市场消失，后半句说彩色广告牌点亮夜晚，前后句是转折关系，所以用but连接。
7. our 考查代词。这里需要一个形容词性物主代词来修饰名词culture，表示“我们的”，we的形容词性物主代词是our。
8. have read 考查时态和主谓一致。根据recently可知，此处用现在完成时，主语为I，故填have read。
9. Slowly 考查副词。这里需要一个副词作状语，修饰整个句子，slow的副词形式是slowly，句首单词首字母大写。
10. from 考查介词。from two angles表示“从两个角度”。
