Mom and Dad went back home from vacation a day earlier as expected,and they couldn't wait to surprise their two sons.However,what disappointed them greatly was that the house was in total(完全的)mess,with dirty dishes in the sink and garbages lying everywhere. What was worse, their dog Spot looked like he was starving.Mom and Dad were sure Daniel,which had been left in charge of the house,was to blame.Before Daniel can explain,Dad shouted angry at him.He said that such behavior should not be tolerated,but Mom added that Daniel could not be trust.Daniel felt so upset that he ran into his room.“Why didn't they ask me what had happened? Didn't I deserve a chance to defend for myself?I hate them!”Daniel thought to herself.
【答案】①as改为than ②in后加a ③garbages改为garbage ④把which改为who ⑤can改为could ⑥angry改为angrily ⑦but改为and
⑧trust改为trusted ⑨for去掉 ⑩herself改为himself
【解析】①句意:比预期要早一天,父母度假回家。根据前面的earlier可知,此处是表示比较,故as改为than。
②句意:让父母失望的是家里一团糟。in a mess是固定短语,意为一团糟。故in后加a。
③句意:洗碗池里满是脏盘子,而且垃圾到处都是。garbage是不可数名词,故garbages改为garbage。
④句意:父母确定是在家照管家的Daniel的责任。先行词是Daniel,指人,而which指物,故把which改为who。
⑤句意:在Daniel能解释之前,父亲很生气的喊他。整篇文章都是讲述的过去的事情,所以应该用过去时。故can改为could。
⑥句意:在Daniel能解释之前,父亲很生气的喊他。此处应该用副词修饰动词,故angry改为angrily。
⑦句意:而且母亲也这样认为。根据语境可知,此处是爸爸和妈妈都指责Daniel,是并列关系,故but改为and。
⑧句意:母亲也说Daniel不可信。根据上文的be以及句意可知,此处是表示被动,故trust改为trusted。
⑨句意:难道我连一个自我辩护的机会也没有吗?defend是及物动词,可以直接加宾语,不需要加介词,故for去掉。
⑩句意:Daniel心里想。Daniel是男孩,故herself改为himself。
