A man requested on a wise man to help his son quit his bad habits. The wise man took the boy for walk in a garden. Stopping sudden he asked the boy to pull out a tiny plant. The boy held the plant between his thumb and forefingers and pulled it out. The man then asked him to pull out another plant which was slightly big. The boy pulled hard and the plant came up. “Now pull out that one,” said the man point to a bush. The boy tired his best but couldn’t pull it out. “So it is with bad habits” said the wise man. “When you are young, it is easy to pull them out, though when they take hold, they can be uprooted.”
【答案】1. on删掉 2. for a walk 3. sudden-suddenly 4. forefinger-forefinger 5. big-bigger 6. up-out
7. point—pointing 8. you—they 9. though—but 10. can—can’t
【解析】第一处 request是及物动词,常用request sb. to do sth.表示“要求某人做某事”,所以把on去掉。
第二处 walk作名词时是可数名词,常用a walk表示一次散步。所以在walk前加a。
第三处 suddenly副词修饰动词。
第四处 forefinger“食指”。这里指一根手指,所以应该用单数。
第五处 此处与前面提到的植物进行比较,所以用比较级。故把big改为bigger。
第六处 此处表示把植物拔出来,所以用come out出来。come up意为“出现,发生”。
第七处 这句话中已经有谓语动词said,用非谓语动词作伴随状语,根据point与主语之间是主动关系,故改为pointing。
第八处 考查人称。这里指的是那些植物在年轻时容易拔出来,故把you改为they。
第九处 此处表示转折,所以把though改为but。
第十处 当它们扎根后,就不能被连根拔起了。所以将can改为can’t。
