I asked Jack, a friend of mine, what has happened to him that night. He said that he had just got into bed on about half past eleven when the floor began to shake under him. The bed was also started shaking. He jumped out of his bed rapid and wanted to turn the light on. But the floor was shaking such violently that he could hardly reach the lamp.

【答案】

I asked Jack, a friend of mine, what happened to him that night. He said that he had just got into bed about half past eleven when the floor began to shake under him. The bed also started shaking. He jumped out of his bed and wanted to turn the light on. But the floor was shaking violently that he could hardly reach the lamp. It seemed to take him long time to get to it and it on. Then he went to look out of the window. He saw that the houses on the other side of the street also shaking. Then he knew was happening — an earthquake! He quickly put on his clothes and ran out into the street to until it was safe to go back inside.

【解析】

第一處：has→had 時間是that night，且由asked可知應該用過去完成時，故將has改為had。

第二處：on→at 時間點前面介詞表示＂在＂用at。

第三處：bed后的was去掉 start一般不能用被動。

第四處：rapid→rapidly 修飾動詞jumped。

第五處：such→so 修飾副詞violently。

第六處：long前加a 固定結構a long time。

第七處：turned→turn 不定式后的并列結構，故用動詞原形。

第八處：was→were 主語是houses。

第九處：that→what 引導賓語從句，在從句充當主語，表示＂什么事情＂，用what。

第十處：waiting→wait to在此是不定式中的to，表目的，動詞應用一般式，故waiting改為wait。
