A great French writer says that we should help everyone much as possible because we often need help ourselves．The small even can help the great．Then he tells a simple story．A ant is drinking at a small river and falls in．She tries to reach the side but makes no progress at all．The poor ant，almost exhausted，is still doing his best when a bird sees her．Moved with pity the bird throws a blade of grass into the water．It supports（支撑） the ant like a boat，and the ant reaches at the bank．When she is having a rest in the grass，she sees a man walk along barefooted and carrying a gun in his hand．He wants to kill the bird nearby．When he raises his gun to fire，the ant bite him in the feet．So he stops to look up and the bird flies away quick．It is an animal much weaker and smaller than herself what has saved her life．

【解析】

这是一则故事。正如一位伟大的法国作家说，我们应该尽可能地帮助每一个人，因为我们经常需要帮助自己。用鸟儿偶然久了落水的蚂蚁，蚂蚁在鸟儿危难时亦救了他一命的故事说明了这个道理。

1.考查固定搭配。句意：我们应该尽可能地帮助每一个人。短语as much as possible意为"尽可能多的"。故在everyone后面加as。

2.考查冠词。句意：一只蚂蚁在一条小河边喝水，掉进了河里。泛指“一只蚂蚁”用不定冠词，ant是元音音素开头的单词用an。故将A改成An。

3.考查代词。句意：可怜的蚂蚁，几乎筋疲力尽了，当一只鸟看到她时，她仍然在尽她最大的努力。根据上文she可知下文的形容词性物主代词用her。故将his改成her。

4.考查介词。句意：它像船一样支撑着蚂蚁，蚂蚁到达了岸边。reach表示“到达”的时候，是及物动词，不需要介词at。故去掉at。

5.考查非谓语动词。句意：当她在草地上休息时，她看到一个人光着脚走着，手里拿着枪。a man和walk是主动关系，用现在分词作定语。故将walk改成walking。

6.考查主谓一致。句意：当他举枪射击时，蚂蚁咬了他的脚。这篇文章时态是一般现在时，而且这句话主语the ant是单数，谓语应该用bites。故将bite改成bites。

7.考查名词。句意：蚂蚁咬了他的脚。根据上下文可知咬到一只脚，用单数。故将feet改成foot。

8.考查副词。句意：于是他停下来向下看，小鸟很快飞走了。考查look up抬头看；look down低头看。因为被咬到脚了，应该是低头。故将up改成down。

9.考查副词。句意：小鸟很快地飞走了。修饰动词flies away用副词。故将quick改成quickly。

10.考查强调句。句意：是一只比她弱小得多的动物救了她的命。使用强调句It is+强调部分+that+其余部分，此句被强调部分为an animal much weaker and smaller。故将what改成that。
