原文:
A few days before my brother and I went to the cinema by bicycle.My brother was riding with me seating on the seat behind.As we came to the crossroad,a young man and a girl came up and stopped us."We've found you long last,‟ they said.And we don't know them.Point to a policeman not far away,the young man explained," He stopped us about half hour ago and made us to catch the next offender.So come on,stand here.Hoping you don't have to wait as long as we did .Good luck.‟
答案:
1.before--ago
根据句子时态和句意此处应是“几天前”,所以将before改为ago.
2.seating--seated/sitting
此次是现在分词作宾补,表示主动,所以将seating改为seated或sitting.
3.crossroad--crossroads
crossroad表示"十字路口"时常用复数形式.
4.在long前加at.
根据句意,“最终找到”应为at long last,是固定搭配.
5.and--but
前后两句语义转折,所以将and改为but.
6.don't--didn't
根据上下文此处是一般过去时,所以将don't改为didn’t.
7.Point--Pointing
根据句子结构,此处的Point应是分词作伴随状语,所以将point改为pointing.
8.在half后加an.
此处half an hour是固定搭配,
9.to catch--catch
此处是make sb do sth结构,所以去掉catch前的to.
10.Hoping--Hope
此句是祈使句,应将hoping改为hope.
