During the summer of 2001, I started reading books by English, mostly stories. I would learn a lot of new words from these books, but I had terribly problems memorizing them. I had to look up to the same word many times, for which was quite troublesome. I realized I do need a way to remember all these new words. It was a great success for myself. I started writing down words from books that I read. I would come back from school and then sit for an hour and two. I wrote down new words and added it to my collection. By the end of last year, my collection has grown to 3000 words.

Answer

【解析】 本文是一篇记叙文，说了作者在2001年夏天开始阅读英文书籍时的收获和困难，以及解决困难的方法。。

1.“During the summer of 2001, I started reading books by English, mostly stories.”根据语境我们可知作者开始阅读英文书籍，这里“用…语言”应为固定搭配“in English”，故将by改为in。

2.“but I had terribly problems memorizing them.”这里的“terrible糟糕的”用来修饰名词“problem问题”，名词应用形容词修饰，故将terribly改为terrible。

3.“I had to look up to the same word many times”根据语境可知，作者必须要查很多次同一个单词。而“look up to”意为向上看、尊敬，查阅应为“look up”。故删掉to。

4. “I had to look up to the same word many times, for which was quite troublesome.”本题唯一使用的介词短语为“look up查找”，而从句部分的for无可搭配短语，故将for删掉。

5.“I realized I do need a way to remember all these new words.”这里的“do表示强调，意为“确实”。浏览全文可知本文为一般过去时，使用“do”时态出现错误，故将do改为did。

6.“It was a great success for myself.” 考查“for myself为我自己”与“for me对我而言”的区别，本题语义应为“这对我而言是一个巨大的成功。”故将myself改为me。

7.“I started writing down words from books that I read.”“the”用来限制特定的事物，本句中的书是特指作者在夏天看的书，是特定的，故添加the。

8.“I would come back from school and then sit for an hour and two.” 考查固定短语“一两个小时an hour or two”，故讲and改为or。

9.“I wrote down new words and added it to my collection.”这里的words为可数名词复数形式，因此代指它们时应用them，故将it改为them。

10.“By the end of last year, my collection has grown to 3000 words.”作者词汇量的增长是已经发生过的事，因此应使用过去完成时，故将has改为had。

【名师点睛】

Look up、look up to与look for的辨析：

1.look up可以为查阅,比如查字典。eg：I look up a few words.我查了几个单词。

look up还有其他的解释：向上看, 尊敬, 仰望, 拜访, 好转。例如：Look up an old friend. 拜访一个老朋友。

2.而look up to则表示尊敬、崇拜。例如：A lot of the younger ones look up to you.很多年轻人都崇拜你。

3.look for为寻找。例如：I'm looking for my car. 我在找我的车。

例如本题的第3题。“I had to look up to the same word many times”这里作者的意思是他必须要查很多次同一个单词。而原句中的“look up to”意为向上看、尊敬，与查单词使用的短语不符合，查阅单词应使用“look up”。故删掉to。
