As a singer and a song writer, Alanis Morissette is used to be in the public eye. Her most famous album Jagged Little Pill, came out in 1995. It was sold so well that she was world famous.

Last Thursday night, hundreds of fans went to Alanis Morissette’s concert in the Corn Exchange for funs. The 30-years-old singer has a strong fan base in England. There was not a empty seat anywhere in the concert hall at last Thursday’s event. “Although it’s cold outside, but I hope we’ll warm it up for you,” Morissette said to the large crowd waited for him to play. During the concert, Morissette used a lot of songs from her award-winning album “Jagged Little Pill” and a few songs from her new album, such as “Everything But…”, and her singing was full of feeling. It was obvious many people in the crowd were long-time fans and sang along to nearly every song. Throughout the concert, the atmosphere inside the concert hall was extremely exciting. Everyone agreed that Morissette’s brilliant music and singing had a great impression on them.

6.empty前的a改成an

7.but删去

8.waited改成waiting

9.obvious后加that

2.句意： Alanis Morissette习惯出现在在公众视野中。be used to doing sth.习惯做某事，故把to后的be改成being。

3.句意：销量很好，世界著名。此处sell well卖得好，sell是不及物动词，无被动语态，故把sold前was划掉。

4. fun趣事/快乐，是不可数名词，故把funs改成fun。

5. 30-year-old三十岁的，这是一个复合形容词，名词用单数，故把30-years-old改成30-year-old。

6. empty以元音开头，故把empty前的a改成an。

7. Although不能和but在一个句中出现，故把but删去。

8.此处是现在分词做后置定语，故把waited改成waiting。

9. 固定句式：It is obvious that---，很明显---，此句中it做形式主语，that引导的主语从句是真正的主语，故在obvious后加that。

10.固定词组：make/leave a great impression on给---留下深刻印象，故把had改成made/left。
