Answer 1

【答案】1. tell前加to 2. hold→held 3. a→the 4. which→that 5. such→so 6. your→my 7. advices→advice 8. make后面的up去掉 9. great→greater 10. hear→hearing

【解析】本文是一封感谢信。是一位学生感谢自己的英语老师对自己的帮助。

第一处：不定式表示目的，故在tell前加to。

第二处：根据时间状语last week可知，应该用过去时。故把hold改为过去时held。

第三处：序数词前用定冠词the，表示“第几”。

第四处：这个句子是一个强调句，强调your kind help，故不能用which，只能用that。

第五处：much, many, few, little前只能用so，不能用such。

第六处：考查人称的一致。根据上文可知，是帮助我学习口语，故把your改为my。

第七处：advice是不可数名词，所以没有复数形式。故把advices改为advice。

第八处：make efforts“努力做某事”，是固定短语，所以把up去掉。

第九处：此处表示与以前相比，所以要用比较级。

第十处：look forward to doing sth.“盼望做某事”，这是固定短语，to是介词，后面跟动名词。
