Question

After a day’s hard work I went to bed early than usual. It was about two o’clock in the morning when I was awakened by a big noise. I got out of the beds and slowly went  upstairs. There was a light in the living room. I listened to carefully and heard two men speak quietly. I believed my house had broken into and I was really frightening.  I went back upstairs and immediately call the police. You can imagine how embarrassed I was when they came upstairs but told me they had turned the television off for me and something was all right.

 had后面加been

 frightening → frightened      

 call → called

【解析】

試題分析：辛苦工作了一天后，我比平常早一些上床睡覺。大約在凌晨2點(diǎn)時(shí)被驚醒。我慢慢上了樓。聽到兩名男子小聲說話。我相信有人闖進(jìn)了我的房子，真嚇人。我立即打電話報(bào)警。你可以想象他們告訴我他們已經(jīng)關(guān)閉電視時(shí)，我是多么尷尬。

  根據(jù)后面的than usual 可以看出前面應(yīng)該用比較級(jí)，故early→ earlier。

  前面的主語是I, 后面的名詞用單數(shù)形式，故beds→ bed。

   由生活常識(shí)臥室一般在樓上，以及文章后面作者回到樓上和警察上樓告訴作者真相可知，此處作者是下樓，故upstairs→ downstairs。

 listen to 后面接賓語，而短文此處沒有賓語，故去掉listened 后面的to。

 hear sb do sth 聽見某人做過某事，hear sb doing sth 聽見某人正在做某事，由上下文可知作者下樓來聽到有人正在說話，故speak → speaking。

 房子做主語，謂語動(dòng)詞闖入要用被動(dòng)語態(tài)，又主句是一般過去時(shí)，賓語從句用相應(yīng)的過去完成時(shí)，故had后面加been。

 作表語時(shí)frightening 令人害怕的，主語通常是事或物，frightened 感到害怕的，主語通常是人，故frightening → frightened。

 短文敘述的是過去的事情，應(yīng)用過去時(shí)，且and 前后的時(shí)態(tài)應(yīng)一致，故call → called。

 警察上樓來告訴作者事情的真相，兩個(gè)動(dòng)作是并列和遞進(jìn)的而不是表轉(zhuǎn)折，故but→ and。

 警察上樓來告訴作者事情的真相，所有的東西都很好，故something→ everything。

考點(diǎn)：短文改錯(cuò)。
