China and Western country may have different cultural beliefs about certain animals. But when it comes to mice, we somehow reach an agreement that mice are timid, ugly, shortsightedly, tricky and thievish﹣looking.
Neither of these words describing mice are exactly positive. Moreover, the truth is what mice have some good qualities. And there's probably no good time to clear their names than now, with the arrival of the Year of the Mouse on Chinese Spring Festival, which fell January 25 this year. According to a paper publishing in 2017, mice have meticulous thoughts or are part of ecosystem. Perhaps these are the qualities of mice to keep it in mind﹣their intelligence, acuity and sense of responsibility.

5. what → that
6. good → better

9. or → and
10. 删除keep后的it
【解析】
这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了虽然中西方文化都认为老鼠是一种不好的小动物,但事实上它们也有好的方面。鼠年来临之际,我们要为它们证明。
1. 考查名词的数。country是可数名词,西方国家不止一个,故应用其复数形式,故将country改为countries。
2. 考查形容词。分析句子可知,此处应用形容词作表语,故将shortsightedly改为shortsighted。
3. 考查代词。根据上文的timid,ugly, shortsightedly,tricky and thievish﹣looking可知修饰老鼠的形容词超过了三个,应用none代替,故将Neither改为None。
4. 考查副词。句意:然而,真相是老鼠也有一些好的品质。根据句意可知,上下文是转折关系,应用however,故将Moreover改为However。
5. 考查表语从句。分析句子可知,此处是表语从句连接词,从句mice have some good qualities的成分和意义都完整,应用连接词that,故将what改为that。
6. 考查形容词比较级。根据下文的than判断此处应用good的比较级,故将good改为better。
7. 考查介词。此处考查故定表达fall on + 日期“适逢/正当”,故在fell后加on。
8. 考查非谓语动词。分析句子可知此处应用非谓语动词作后置定语,逻辑主语paper和publish之间是被动关系,应用过去分词,故将publishing改为published。
9. 考查并列连词。句意:根据2017年发表的一篇文章,老鼠有细致的思维并且是生态系统的一部分。根据句意可知,上下文是顺承关系,用and符合语境,故将or改为and。
10. 考查代词。此处用不定式作为qualities的后置定语,因qualities已经作为 keep的宾语,故不再使用it,故删除keep后的it。
