答案
一句解说
1
visitors
空白前有 of、后面是 every year,需填复数可数名词,与 attracts 的主语配合。
2
The school will build a new pool as the old one is too small
摘要保留因果要点,删去重复修饰,并用 as 代替 because,字数即时下降。
3
restate
摘要要求用自己的措辞重述要点,不是抄录,也不是逐句翻译。
4
Therefore
therefore 表示结果;although 表示让步,however 表示对比。
5
180 words
240 减 60 等于 180,即要删去四分之三篇幅。
6
36 words over
96 减 60 等于 36;超字数会直接被扣分,写完要数一次。
7
The founder childhood story
四十字摘要只留最必要的资料;价钱、日期与地点实用,童年轶事属细节,最先删。
8
The new system is much faster
改写要换句式与词汇而保留意思;照抄原句不算改写。
9
is
主语核心是 one,动词用单数 is,即使后面有复数名词 reasons。
10
Copying shows no understanding and can exceed the word limit; the points must be condensed and reworded
