In the summer holiday following my eighteen birthday,I took driving lessons.I still remember how hard first day was.Before getting into the car,I thought I had learned the instructor's orders,so once I started the car,my mind goes blank.I forgot what he had said to me altogether.The instructor kept repeating the word,"Speed up!""Slow down!""Turning left!"I was so much nervous that I could hardly tell which direction was left.A few minutes late,the instructor asked me to stop the car.It was a relief and I came to a suddenly stop just in the middle on the road.

解答 In the summer holiday following my eighteen birthday,I took driving lessons.I still remember how hard∧first day was.Before getting into the car,I thought I had learned the instructor's orders,so once I started the car,my mind goes blank.I forgot what he had said to me altogether.The instructor kept repeating the word,"Speed up!""Slow down!""Turning left!"I was so much nervous that I could hardly tell which direction was left.A few minutes late,the instructor asked me to stop the car.It was a relief and I came to a suddenly stop just in the middle on the road.
详解:
1.eighteen改为eighteenth 考查数词.此处应是第十八个生日,用序数词.
2.how hard后加the或my 考查冠词或代词.序数词前用定冠词the.或我学车的第一天,用形容词性物主代词.
3.so改为but/yet 考查连词.前后两个单句表示转折关系,用连词but/yet.
4.goes改为went 考查动词时态. 全文讲述的是已发生的事情,用一般过去时.
5.word改为words 考查名词复数.word的基本意思是"单词",指语言中能独立存在的最小表意单位,也可指"(说的)话,话语,言语,谈话"等,是可数名词,此时要用复数形式.
6.Turning改为Turn 考查祈使句."Speed up!""Slow down!""Turn left!"这些属于祈使句,要用动词原形.
7.去掉much 考查固定搭配.so…that…意为"如此/这么…以致于…",句型中的so是副词,常常用来修饰形容词或副词,常用句型为:主语+谓语+so+adj./adv.+that从句.已有副词so,much是多余的,要去掉.
8.late改为later 考查副词.later用于一段具体时间之后,表示从过去或将来算起的多长时间以后,但通常不指从现在算起的多久以后.
9.suddenly改为sudden 考查形容词.stop是名词,要用形容词修饰.
10.on改为of 考查介词.in the middle of意为"正在…当中; 在…的中部",是固定搭配.

Like learning disabilities,behavior disorders are hard to diagnose.There are no physical symptoms in the body that are observable or measurable.Behavior disorders are therefore identified by observing behavior patterns in the child over a period of time.If a child displays some of the following behaviors,he may be labeled with a behavior disorder:
◆Aggression and cruelty to people and animals.
◆Destruction of property-defacing or damaging things.
◆Little sympathy and concern for others.
◆Takes no responsibility for behavior.Also lies,cheats and steals easily.
◆Disregards (无视)rules and regulations.
In addition to these general symptoms of a behavior disorder,there are other symptoms characteristic of more specific behavior disorders such as ADHD-this is the inattentive,can't-sit-still behavior.The attention can't last long and the behavior is impulsive at times.The child also seems quite distracted and forgetful.
Behavior disorders come from brain injury,child abuse,and shock,etc.There have also been indications that it could be a genetic disorder.The behavior therefore is an involuntary response to these experiences and the child should not be blamed for his behavior.Since the child has problems controlling his behavior,it stands to reason that his performance in school will be affected.A child with a behavior disorder will feel bad about himself and that low self-esteem will be further worsened by the adults around him who do not treat his condition with understanding and willingness to help.
Behavior disorders are best dealt with by behavior and psychological treatments.But,as with learning disabilities,accurate diagnosis is important and this must be over a length of time.It is also important in trying to modify the behavior to be clear about what is the behavior you are expecting.Make sure it is a rational expectation.For example,expecting a three-year-old to sit quietly through a long church service may not be reasonable,or demandi ng that a six-year-old does extra home work after a long day of school and extra curricular activities may be stretching the child's concentration and attention too far.Since some behavior disorders result from shocking and upsetting life experiences or brain injury,treatments should include helping the child to resolve and heal emotionally from the experience.The behavior could be corrected through emotional healing.In other words,when a human being is emotionally healthy,that is,can be aware of his intelligence and enthusiasm for life and his loving connectedness to other human beings,he automatically"behaves"rationally.
