解答 Dear Sir，
I'm very happier to read your magazine"BBC English"．I had found it both useful and interested．The part I'm most interested∧is the one about finding pen-pals for English learner all over the world．My name is Li Hua，a boy in seventeen．I am spending my last year in school．I like collecting the stamps，playing table tennis，sightseeing orlearning English．Would you be kind enough to put my name on the list for the selection of pen-pals who likes and age are hopeful the same as mine？Thank you．Yours sincerely，

详解：
1．happier改为happy 考查形容词．very不能修饰比较级，将happier改成happy，修饰比较级的词有much，even，still，far，a little等．
2．had改为have 考查动词时态．此处指读杂志后产生的影响，要用现在完成时态．
3．interested改为interesting 考查形容词．it指代BBC English，表示物，要用形容化的现在分词作宾语补足语．
4．加in 考查介词．be interested in意为"对…感兴趣"，是固定搭配．
5．learner改为learners 考查名词复数．learner意为"学习者"，不只一人，要用复数形式．
6．in改为of 考查介词．of意为"[用于数词、量词或表部分的词后面，表示整体起中心词的作用]的"，介词in则不能表达此意．
7．去掉the 考查冠词．collecting stamps意为"集邮"，是固定搭配，不需要加定冠词the．
8．or改为and 考查连词．collecting stamps，playing table tennis，sightseeing，learning English表示并列关系，要用连词and，做like的并列宾语．
9．who改为whose 考查定语从句．likes and age是名词词组，意为"爱好和年龄"，要用关系代词whose作定语．
10．hopeful改为hopefully 考查副词．the same意为"同样的； 相同的"，要用副词修饰．

点评 高考短文改错题的形式有说明文，短文故事，书信等，具有很强的实用性．短文的内容和语言都符合高中学生的实际，从表面上看类似一篇学生习作．首先，通读全文，了解短文大意，把握全篇的时态、人称及行文逻辑，在通读全文时把一些容易的错误先改好，再进行逐句改错．其次，要进行逐个句子的改错．这是要对文中的词法、句法和语篇着重分析和特别注意．最后把改好的短文再阅读一遍，检查答案是否正确，感觉是否还有不妥之处，最终形成定稿．

9．I was nine years old when I learnt to ride a bike．The bike was a birthday present from my uncle．You can imagine how（61）excited（excite） I was when I saw the bike，and I begged my uncle to teach me how（62）to ride（ride） it right away．However，before I got on the bike，I felt（63）extremely（extreme） nervous and I was afraid that I would fall off and hurt（64）myself（me）．My uncle held onto the seat and helped me to get（65）on the bike．While I was riding，he was running along beside me，holding the seat so I would not fall over．I was so（66）grateful（grate） to him for his help．
As I was practicing，I became more and more confident．Then，I heard my uncle shouting，"You are riding it by yourself now!"I was both pleased and scared．I was really riding by myself，but（67）what if I fell off？Could I use the brakes（刹车） to stop？As I was wondering about this，my uncle ran after me and got hold of the bike．I（68）
slowed（slow） down and came to a stop．My heart was still beating fast when I got off the bike．（69）Later（late） that day，having learnt how to get on the bike and get off it，I felt like I was walking on air!I am still thankful to my uncle for teaching me to ride a bike on my（70）ninth（nine） birthday．
10．Rainy days don't have to get you down，a happiness expert has claimed．
Paul Dolan，Professor of Behavioral Science at the London School of Economics，said that people only feel miserable in bad weather because they think about it too much．Studies have shown that people who live in warm，sunny climates are no happier than those in chilly，wet climates，he says．
So the British talking about the weather may be making us gloomier（沮丧的） than the weather itself．
He said："A study was done that measured the happiness levels of people in California compared to the North West．
"They expected that people in California would be happier because it is more sunny，but they found that levels of happiness were exactly the same．
"If it is sunny every day you get used to it and the sunshine doesn't make you any happier．
"Most of the time the weather doesn't affect our well-being at all．But when we think about it，and think that it does，that's when we get miserable．"
In his new book，Happiness By Design，Dolan argues that we can think ourselves happy by taking our attention away from what makes us sad．
"Most of our anxieties come from what might be，"he argues．"If you want to be happier，pay attention to the things that make you feel good．"
He also claimed that a problem shared was not always a problem halved．He claimed that humans are actually very good at being able to get over tragedy and loss．
Professor Dolan also admitted for the first time that he had a stammer（口吃），which had made his early life miserable．He claimed it only got better when he learned not to pay attention to his speech problem．
"Things are never as bad as you imagine them being，"he said．

4．Learning to Accept
I learned how to accept life as it is from my father．However，he did not teach me acceptance when he was strong and （46）C，but rather when he became older and had illness．
My father was once a strong man who loved being active，but a terrible disease took all that away．Now he can no longer walk，and he must sit quietly in a chair all day．Even talking is（47）B．One night，I went to visit him．with my sisters．We started talking about life，and I told them about one of my（48）A．I said that we must very often give things up as we grow-our youth，our beauty，and our friends-but it always seems that after we give something up，we （49）D something new in its place．Then suddenly my father spoke up．He said，"But，Peter，I gave up everything!What did I get？"I thought and thought，but I couldn't think of anything to say．（50）B，he answered his own question："I won the love of my family，"I looked at my sisters and saw tears in their eyes，along with hope and thankfulness．
I was also （51）Aby his words．After that，when I began to feel irritated （愤怒的）at someone，I would remember his words and become （52）B．If he could replace his great pain with a feeling of love for others，then I should be able to give up my small irritations．（53）D，I learned the power of acceptance from my father．
Sometimes I （54）Awhat other things I could have learned from him if I had listened more carefully when I was a boy．For now，though，I am grateful for this one（55）C．

11．My wife and I had just opened up a pet sitting business earlier that year．Our customers had slowly risen from three to thirty a month．We were busy through those hot summer months，driving between visits．Our services were strictly held at the pet owner's home．It was almost too busy for the two of us，but we were making good money!
We asked pet owners new to our services to phone two weeks ahead so we had enough time to meet the owners and pets at their homes and make any following meetings before the owner leaves．
One day，we decided to take on a new customer just two days before they would leave．We met the family，filled in a form，and spent some time with their dog，Hercules．He playfully jumped on us and touched our hands and arms using his tongue．The family laughed as he did this，showing us that he was very loving．
Two days later I appeared at the house，alone．I came up to Hercules and said hello happily．I filled up his water bowl and cleaned any messes he made．Meanwhile，he was so lovely sitting beside．I thought this would be the good picture to send to the owners，a usual service．After the light and"click"sound went off，Hercules rushed at me．I didn't know what had just happened until I noticed the drops of blood．I ran out and did the only thing-calling my wife．
Then I went to neighbors for help．My wife arrived after ten minutes．The helpful neighbor and my wife led Hercules back into his pen （圈）．Then my husband and I took off to the hospital．
I must have looked like I was shot when I walked into the hospital．The nurses quickly moved me to a room．I asked the doctor in a weak but playful manner，"Am I going to die？"He replied，"Finally．"

After visiting several campuses，he settled on Yale，which costs﹩64，000a year with room and board．He is responsible for﹩6，000； Yale scholarships and federal grant money cover the rest．
He'll mostly take it easy during the summer before heading to Yale in late August．He's considering majoring in Latin American studies and perhaps a career as a lawyer or in international affairs．

8．My friend BJ Gallagher told me a great story recently，about her own experience with resentment （愤恨）．She once worked as the training manager for a large newspaper，where she found the corporate culture extremely frustrating．The company was a hundred years old and their past success had blinded them to the need for change．Finally，after butting heads with several senior executives （主管） many times，she left the company．But she found that she hadn't left her resentment，frustration，and anger behind when she resigned．

"Finally，the time came when I decided to make amends （弥补） for the sharp，angry things I had said about the company．I invited my former boss to dinner and made my apology．It was a great healing process for me．I finally felt free of the resentment that had been eating me up．"
"What was the final outcome？"I asked her．
"Gratitude，"she replied．"Not only wasn't I resentful any more，I was grateful to the company．If I hadn't had those painful experiences，I would never have written a book．And the book became hugely successful-now published in 21languages； it transformed my business．"

Dancing Building，Czech Republic
The Dancing House，or"Fred and Ginger"，is situated in Prague，the Czech Republic．It is an amazing masterpiece of architecture which has its own romantic charm．There is something so sweet in the way the buildings hug each other for a dance!It has become a symbol of the city!

Habitat 67，Montreal，Canada
Habitat 67in Canada is a very interesting arrangement of cubes，which looks like the building blocks that children play with．It is pretty interesting how it was designed-it looks so original，and at the same time the building is completely stable（稳定的） and comfortable for living!It was created as a main attraction for Expo（展览会） 67，where it was officially exposed!

13．As a famous saying goes，time is money，which shows the important of time．Time is valuable but limited．When time is gone，they will never come back．
How a pity it is that many of us make poor use of time．We spend much time play games and chatting online．We don't realize wasting time are equal to a waste of our life．As the result，we will regret having achieved little one day．However，we should get rid the habit of wasting time．Do not put off that what can be done today until tomorrow．Laziness will not only brought us failure，but also lead us to poverty．
