參考答案：

習(xí)作修改

作者因母親突然生病不能參加英國歷史講座，給Mr. Evans寫的道歉信。

1. 把第一句的in改為on 或about，因?yàn)槭且粋€(gè)“關(guān)于”英國歷史的講座。

2. 刪除第二句中My mother后的was，因?yàn)榫渲幸延兄^語fell。

3. 把第二句的trips改為trip，由冠詞a可知，其后接名詞trip的單數(shù)形式。

4. 把第三句的him改為her，此處代詞指代的是my mother。

5. 把第四句的interesting改為interest，根據(jù)冠詞a或形容詞great可知，此處用名詞。

6. 把第五句的possibly改為possible，因?yàn)槌洚?dāng)表語用形容詞possible而并非其副詞。

7. 把第六句的the great deal中的冠詞the改為a，因?yàn)閍 great deal“大量；非常”是固定短語。

8. 把第六句的how改為what，因?yàn)樵趌earn后的賓語從句中，缺少主語，且表示“……內(nèi)容”，故用what。

9. 在第七句中的say前面添加to，因?yàn)閍llow sb. to do sth.“允許某人做某事”是固定句式。

10. 把第八句的hoped改為hope，因?yàn)閷懶诺臅r(shí)候是“現(xiàn)在”，故應(yīng)用一般現(xiàn)在時(shí)。

課堂練習(xí)

Dear Tom，

Im writing to make an apology to you. Last week， we made arrangements for the Christmas party and found it difficult to reach an agreement since we had different ideas. Then a bitter quarrel broke out between us and I couldnt help yelling at you in a rude manner. It must have hurt you deeply. Now I am aware of my mistake and want to take back what I said that day. Will you please forgive my rudeness and ignorance As a matter of fact， I didnt mean any harm but tried to illustrate my views. Its hoped that were still close friends and serve our class together heart and soul. Ill appreciate it if you could forgive and forget.

Once again I apologize to you for my impoliteness.

Yours sincerely，

Li Hua

Dear Bob，

How is life It is two months since we last saw each other.

Im writing to tell you that I cant go on a trip to Tibet with you this coming August. The reason is that I fell ill all of a sudden the other day. According to the doctor， Id better lie in bed for a period of time until I recover from illness thoroughly， so I have no choice but to put off the trip. I feel ashamed and guilty about not being able to keep my promise. Sorry for the inconvenience caused. Shall we make it another time， for instance， the Spring Festival， when Ill have a long holiday.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Yours sincerely，

Li Hua
