A big storm destroyed two villages in South Africa on last Friday, causing 4 death. Over 200 people became homeless as a result of the storm. A farmer said the storm began early in the morning and last one hour. He said, “I was in the kitchen with my wife and children while we heard a loud noise. A few minutes late, our house fell down. I managed to climb out, but much to my shocking, one of my boys were missing. I quickly went back inside and found them safe but frightened.” Soldiers came to rescue those burying under the ruins, and the government provided food, clothes, and shelters for homeless.

Answer 1

【答案】

【解析】第一處，去掉on，last Friday前不需要加介詞。

第二處，death改為deaths�？疾槊�詞的單復(fù)數(shù)。4人死亡，應(yīng)用復(fù)數(shù)。

第三處，last改為lasted。考查并列謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞的時(shí)態(tài)一致，前文began為一般過(guò)去時(shí)，此處and之后的last也應(yīng)該用一般過(guò)去時(shí)，lasted。

第四處，while改為when。在引導(dǎo)時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)從句時(shí)，while之后只能跟延續(xù)性動(dòng)詞，而hear一詞是短暫性動(dòng)詞，故用when替代。

第五處，late改為later。later用在一段時(shí)間之后表示“…之后”，a few minutes later 幾分鐘之后。而late意為“遲的，晚的”。

第六處，shocking改為shock。屬詞類用錯(cuò)，此處應(yīng)用名詞形式。shock 名詞，震驚。much to my shock使我非常震驚的是…

第七處，were改為was�？疾橹髦^一致。one of my boys主語(yǔ)是one，為單數(shù)，因此謂語(yǔ)用was。

第八處，them改為him。代詞用錯(cuò)。根據(jù)前文one of my boys，此處應(yīng)為單數(shù)，代詞賓格用him。

第九處，burying改為buried。those buried under the ruins指那些被埋在廢墟里的人。

第十處，for后加the。the homeless指的是那些無(wú)家可歸的人。
