Answer 1

【答案】

【解析】1.theatre是可數(shù)單數(shù)名詞，前面加冠詞，此處是特指，應(yīng)該用the.故加上the.

2.根據(jù)語境可知，句子的主語是they，把他們的狗留下看家。此處表示“他們的”家。故把his改為their.

3.breakinto與breakin都作“闖入;強行進入;破門而入”之意時的區(qū)別如下:breakinto是及物動詞短語,后面要接賓語，此句后面沒有賓語應(yīng)該用break in.故把into改為in.

4.dog-lover是可數(shù)名詞單數(shù)，此處是泛指，dog讀音是以輔音開頭，所以前面加上不定冠詞a.故加上a.

5.句中While the alarm was ringing，but the burglars were stealing cash and jewelry，worth over $10，000 from a safe都是狀語從句，句中“the alarm was ringing”與“the burglars were stealing cash and jewelry，worth over $10，000 from a safe”兩個分句之間是并列關(guān)系，應(yīng)該用and.故把but改為and.

6.此處表示躺下休息，用lie down，lie譯為“躺”的過去式為lay.故把laid改為lay.

7.arrive at后面跟時間點表示到達的時間，此處twenty minutes later是時間狀語，arrive不及物動詞，作謂語，at多余。故把at省去。

8.主語the dog與guard之間是主動關(guān)系，此句用過去進行時，故把guarded改為guarding.

9.enter是及物動詞，直接跟名詞作賓語，故把into省去。

10.tearing his trousers and bit him in the leg是and連接兩個伴隨狀語，bite與邏輯主語dog之間是主動，應(yīng)該用現(xiàn)在分詞作狀語，故把bit改為biting.
