　　 答案及解析

9. 此行无错。

8. subject改为subjects。subject是可数名词。

7. 删去to。home为副词。

6. tired改为tiring。tired为形容词“劳累的”， 多用来修饰人； tiring也为形容词， 意为“令人劳累的”， 用来修饰事物。

5. the改为a。have a break意为“休息一会儿”， 为固定搭配。

4. after改为until。构成“not...until...”句型。

3. 第一个had后加been。根据逻辑， 此处应为被动语态。

2. dry前加a。一般来讲， 三餐前不加任何冠词， 但当三餐前有形容词修饰时， 则必须在形容词前加不定冠词。如：We usually have breakfast at eight. I have a wonderful breakfast this morning.
