详解：
1．So改为But 考查连词．前后两个单句之间是转折关系而非因果关系，用连词but．
2．去掉of 考查词语用法．instead意为"替代，顶替"，是副词，instead of意为"（用…）代替…"，是介词短语，此处应是：替代，顶替．
3．have改为has 考查主谓一致．主语change是单数形式，谓语动词也应用单数形式has．  
4．works改为work 考查名词．work是不可数名词，没有复数形式．
5．Comparing改为Compared 考查过去分词．mobile phones and the Internet与compare之间是动宾关系，用过去分词短语Compared with letters and public phones作状语．
6．fast改为faster 考查形容词比较级． and是并列连词，它前后连接两个相同的语法成分，faster和much more convenient都是形容词比较级作并列表语．
7．missed改为miss 考查动词时态．本文讲述的是一般事实，用一般现在时态．
8．him改为her 考查代词．her指代grandmother．
9．加an 考查冠词．是可数名词，单数形式前加不定冠词表示泛指，因其读音以发元音开头，用不定冠词an．  
10．after改为before 考查连词．It+be+一段时间+before-clause此句型中的"一段时间"通常用long，years，weeks，days，hours，minutes等词语表示．主句中的谓语动词为肯定形式时，意为"过一段时间才…"；主句中用will be时，before从句中常用一般现在时．

点评 高考短文改错题的形式有说明文，短文故事，书信等，具有很强的实用性．短文的内容和语言都符合高中学生的实际，从表面上看类似一篇学生习作．首先，通读全文，了解短文大意，把握全篇的时态、人称及行文逻辑，在通读全文时把一些容易的错误先改好，再进行逐句改错．其次，要进行逐个句子的改错．这是要对文中的词法、句法和语篇着重分析和特别注意．最后把改好的短文再阅读一遍，检查答案是否正确，感觉是否还有不妥之处，最终形成定稿．
