Also foreign cars have become very common. Americans have bought (10)______(大量的) Japanese and German cars. They have bought cars from several other countries as well.

【答案与解析】

美国多数人都拥有汽车，因此有“车轮上的民族”之称，就是讲美国人使用汽车的一些情况的。

1. has been。句中无动词，由“是”可知要用be；结合第2题可知要用be的现在完成时态。

2. since。它引出的时间状语常与现在完成时连用。

3. outside。修饰动词moved要用副词outside；另外，短语outside of是“……的外面”。

4. two hours a day。注意表示单位时间的词“每天(a day)”要放后面。又如：每小时十公里ten kilometers an hour。

5. going to work。注意与前面spend的句型搭配：spend…(in) doing sth 花多少时间或金钱做某事。

6. means。注意means(工具、方法、手段) 这本单词本身就是以s结尾的，且单复数同形，若作主语要根据句意来确定是单数还是复数。

7. used to。表示过去常常用“used to +动词原形”。

8. however。注意however是副词，且后面常有逗号；但是but是连词其后无逗号。

9. more common。后面省略了than big cars，所以用比较级；common的比较级是在前面加more。

10. large numbers of。表示“大量的”还可用a large number of。
