When I was seven years old and my sister were only four, our father was killed in an automobile accident just two week after his twenty-seventh birthday. Mom was heartbreaking. Although we were really so young to understand what was going on, but I knew life would never be quite the same. We had a nice home, plenty of that we needed, but we miss our father. About every evening we would go to our grandparents’ house for visit. My grandmother had begun working part-time at Kentucky Fried Chicken. His boss was a nice young man named Charles which got to know my mother and fell in love with her later.

Answer 1

【答案】1. were→was 2. week→weeks 3. heartbreaking→heartbroken

4. so→too 5. but去掉 6. that→what 7. miss→missed 8. visit前面加a 9. His→Her 10. which→who

【解析】第一处：考查主谓一致。主语my sister是第三人称单数，谓语动词也用第三人称单数。故were改为was。

第二处：考查名词。week“星期”，是可数名词，有two修饰用复数。故week改为weeks。

第三处：考查形容词。heartbreaking“令人心碎的”；heartbroken“心碎的”。说明Mom因父亲去世而心碎用heartbroken。故heartbreaking改为heartbroken。

第四处：考查too…to…句型。句意：我们真的是太小了以至于不能理解发生了什么。too…to…“太……以至于不……”是固定句型。故so改为too。

第五处：考查连词。英语句子不能同时使用两个连词，有although不能再使用but。故去掉but。

第六处：考查宾语从句。句意：我们有一个美丽的家，许多我们需要的东西，但是我们失去了父亲。介词后跟what引导的宾语从句，what在从句中作宾语，意思是“所有……的事物”；that引导宾语从句仅起引导作用，无词义，不作成分。故that改为what。

第七处：考查动词。根据语境可知，此处描述过去发生的事情，用一般过去时。故miss改为missed。

第八处：考查名词。句意：每天晚上我们都去祖父母家拜访。visit“拜访”是可数名词，visit以元音音素开头，泛指一次拜访，故visit前加a。

第九处：考查代词。此处指祖母的老板。故His改为Her。

第十处：考查定语从句。“which got to know my mother and fell in love with her later”是定语从句，修饰man，先行词指人，在从句中作主语，用关系代词who或者that。故which改为who/that。
