One day Tom and I were walking down the street while we saw an old man fall off his bike. He was badly hurt. Many people crowded around us. Someone suggested carrying the old man to the roadside, so Tom disagreed. He has learned first aid. He said that they ought to leave him where he was and checked him first. At that time the old man wasn’t breathing. Tom asked me to call in the First Aid Center at once and he began to start the old man’s breathing, use the mouth-to-mouth way. Within five minute, the old man began to move a little and doctors also arrived. They said that we had done was correct. I have learned from this experience that a knowledge of first aid can make a really difference.

Answer 1

【答案】

(1)while→when

(2)us→him

(3)so→but

(4)has→had

(5)checked→check

(6)in去掉

(7)use→using

(8)minute→minutes

(9)that后面加what/that→what

(10)really→real

【解析】

(1)while表示“当……时”，从句多用进行时态，而此处不是，故把while改为when。

(2)根据上下文，应该是围着他，故要把us改为him。

(3)根据后面的disagreed，可见与上一句是转折关系，故把so改为but。

(4)全文用一般过去时，故这里也要用过去时，故把has改为had。

(5)分析句子，check是与leave并列，都在情态动词ought to后面，故应用原形。

(6)call sb.打电话给某人，后面直接跟宾语，不用加介词in，去掉。

(7)use the mouth-to-mouth way是作方式状语，它本身与前面之间没有连词，而且没有主语，故use肯定要用非谓语动词形式，再根据use与逻辑主语的关系是主动关系，故要改为现在分词。

(8)five是复数，故要把minute改为minutes。

(9)句意：他们说我们所做的是正确的。宾语从句中缺少宾语，而根据句意是表示“事物”，故在that后加what，或者是把that改为what也可以，因为that作为宾语从句的引导词在此可以省略。

(10)修饰后面的名词difference要用形容词，故把really改为real。
