He get a lot of presents and flowers from his workmates too, and he got an farewell party by the Women’s Institute of the town. His wife Jill said,＂We’d like thank all the people who came and gave presents. I thought my husband did that he could do. But today she understand how great my husband is but what an important job he had.＂

Answer 1

【答案】

【解析】第一处：present→presents 他上周退休的时候，从他服务过的人们那里收到礼物。由第二句中的＂They＂可知，present应该用复数形式。

第二处：去掉in last year, last summer等表示时间的短语前不用介词。

第三处：wonderfully→wonderful 修饰名词要用形容词。

第四处：send→sending 介词后的动词要用动名词形式。

第五处：get→got 本文是讲过去的事情，所以此处用一般过去时态。

第六处：an→a 元音因素前用an，辅音音素前用a。farewell的读音以辅音音素开头，故用a。

第七处：like后加to would like to do sth是固定结构。

第八处：that→what that和what虽都可引导宾语从句，但that在从句中不作成分，只起连接作用，而本句did后明显缺宾语，he could do也缺宾语，故只能用what。

第九处：she→I 直接引语中，Jill应该说＂我＂。

第十处：but→and 前后为并列关系，不表转折，故用and。
