They still__6__ had all their classrooms skills in bright, shiny__7__ condition, while mine grown rusty from disuse. I__8__ had totally forgotten how to locate information in a library, what to write a report, __9__ or even how to speak up in class discussion. __10__
参考答案及解析
参考答案及解析:
1. 去掉back。 return本身就相当于back或go back,此处back意义重复
2. for改为about。worry about是固定词组,表示“为……担心”,而worry for后加人时表示“为某人担心”
3. has改为had。定语从句中时态应与主句一致
4. freshly改为fresh。fresh out of school作后置定语修饰teenager。freshly只有与过去分词连用时才表示recently
5. 去掉who或将sitting改为sat
6. more改为much。修饰强调比较级better
7. classrooms改为classroom。classroom在此处是名词作定语修饰skill,不能用复数
8. mine后加had。过去分词grown不能单独作谓语,并且需要表示出在过去的过去“我的技能早已生锈”
9. what改为how。write后已有宾语,应用how表示方式
10 or改为and
