1．notice-noticed，本题考查时态．本文主要是讲述的过去的事情，所以应该用一般过去时，所以用noticed．
2．occupy-occupied   本题考查非谓语动词，桌子是被一位老妇人和一对年轻夫妇占据，所以用过去分词表示被动关系．
3．在 young couple前面加a，本题考查冠词．这里的第一次提到年轻夫妇，所以用不定冠词．
4．clearly-clear 本题考查形容词．在系动词后面应该用形容词形式．
5．on-at/by；本题考查介词搭配．在桌子旁应该用at或by，on the table 表示"在桌子表面上"．
6．put-putting，本题考查非谓语动词，本句中谓语动词是said，put应该用现在分词表示伴随状语．
7．many-much，本题考查代词．句意为：你让我想起了我的妈妈，这里没有表示可数的名词，所以用much表示抽象的内容．
8．去掉to，本题考查动词的搭配．accept是及物动词，所以后面不需要介词，所以去掉to．
9．So-But，本题考查连词，前后是表示转折关系．妈妈为了安慰老人，但是作者认为这位老人并不像奶奶，所以应该用but．
10．me-I．本题考查代词形式．本句是倒装句，主语在最后，主语应该用主格，所以将me改为I．

点评短文改错主要要求考生掌握各种句法、语法知识，根据一些规律，再结合文章的意思作出正确的该正．注意文章的时态和人称．

练习册系列答案

The easy way out isn’t always easiest. I learned that lesson when I decided to treat Doug, my husband of one month, to a special meal. I looked through my cookbook and chose a menu which included homemade bread. Knowing the bread would take time, I started on it as soon as Doug left for work. As I was not experienced in cooking, I thought if a dozen was good, two dozen would be better, so I doubled everything. As Dong loved oranges, I also opened a can of orange and poured it all into the bowl. Soon there was a sticky dough（面团）covered with ugly yellowish marks. Realizing I had failed, I put the dough in the rubbish bin outside so I wouldn't have to face Doug laughing at my work.

I went on preparing the rest of the meal, and, when Doug got home, we sat down to Cornish chicken with rice. He tried to enjoy the meal but seemed disturbed. Twice he got up and went outside, saying he thought he heard a noise. The third time he left, I went to the windows to see what he was doing. Looking out, I saw Doug standing about three feet from the rubbish bin, holding the lid up with a stick and looking into the container. When I came out of the house, he dropped the stick and explained that there was something alive in out rubbish bin. Picking up the stick again, he held the lid up enough for me to see. I felt cold. But I stepped closer and looked harder. Without doubt it was my work. The hot sun had caused the dough to double in size and the fermenting yeast （酵母）made the surface shake and sigh as though it were breathing. I had to admit what the 'living thing 'was and why it was there. I don't know who was more embarrassed by the whole thing--Doug or me?

I had started a small company several years ago. I worked hard to make it successful. It was a sign-making business. It was a small company, and it was private.

Still, I worked hard building up my business. I did not work only a few hours each day—no banker's hours for me. Instead I spent many hours each day, seven days a week, trying to grow the company. I never cut corners or tried to save on expenses. I made many cold calls. I called on possible buyers from a list of people I had never seen. Such calls were often hard sells.

Sometimes I sold my signs at a loss. I did not make money on my product. When this happened, there were cut backs. I had to use fewer supplies and reduce the number of workers. But after several years, the company broke even. Profits were equal to expenses. And soon after, I began to gain ground. My signs were selling very quickly. They were selling like hotcakes.

I was happy. The company was moving forward and making real progress. It was in the black, not in the red. The company was making money, not losing it.

My friend knew about my business. He is a leader in the sign-making industry—a real big gun, if you know what I mean. He offered to buy my company.

He offered me a ball park estimate of the amount he would pay to buy my company. But I knew his uneducated guess was low. My company was worth much more. That is, he asked his accountant to take a close look at the finances of my company and decide how much it was worth. Then my friend increased his offer.

My friend's official offer was finally given to me in black and white. It was written on paper and more than I ever dreamed. I was finally able to get a break. I made a huge profit on my company, and my friend also got a bang for the buck. He got a successful business for the money he spent.
