【題目】短文改錯

假定英語課上老師要求同桌之間交換修改作文，請你修改你同桌寫的以下作文。文中共有10處語言錯誤，每句中最多有兩處。錯誤涉及一個單詞的增加、刪除或修改。

增加：在缺詞處加一個漏詞符號（∧），并在其下面寫出該加的詞。

刪除：把多余的詞用斜線（\）劃掉。

修改：在錯的詞下劃一橫線，并在該詞下面寫出修改后的詞。

注意：

1. 每處錯誤及其修改均僅限一詞；

2. 只允許修改10處，多者（從第11處起）不計分。

In the past, I always think my little brother was very unpleasant, because he used to ask me some questions every time he did his homeworks. I felt as if I had been the smartest person in the world every time he accepted my explanations. Answered one of his questions, I often liked to say that he was too stupidly to solve such simple questions.

Last week both us received our report cards from our school. Unexpectedly, I got C’s, when he got straight A’s. To make things bad, all the day my brother screamed what foolish it was of me not to ask questions! I just sighed and had to admit that she was right. I have never made a fun of him since then.

In the past, I always my little brother was very unpleasant, because he used to ask me some questions every time he did his . I felt as if I had been the smartest person in the world every time he accepted my explanations. one of his questions, I often liked to say that he was too to solve such simple questions.

Last week both us received our report cards from our school. Unexpectedly, I got C’s, he got straight A’s. To make things , all the day my brother screamed foolish it was of me not to ask questions! I just sighed and had to admit that was right. I have never made fun of him since then.

【解析】

第一處：think→ thought In the past是明顯的過去時間狀語，故think應用一般過去時。

第二處：homeworks→ homework homework（家庭作業）是不可數名詞，沒有復數形式。

第三處：Answered→ Answering I是answer的邏輯主語，兩者間是主動關系，故應使用現在分詞Answering作狀語。

第四處：stupidly→ stupid 系動詞后用形容詞作表語，故應改為stupid（愚蠢的）。

第五處：both后加of ＂我們兩個人＂ 既可以說we both，也可以說both of us。

第六處：when→ while 上下文之間是對比關系，故應使用while連接并列句。

第七處：bad→ worse to make things worse是固定短語，意為＂更糟糕的是＂ 。

第八處：what→ how foolish是形容詞，應用how修飾。hw引出的感嘆句作screamed的賓語。

第九處：she→ he 人稱代詞的邏輯錯誤。由前面的little brother和he可知應用he。

第十處：去掉a make fun of是固定短語，意為＂取笑＂。
