參考答案及解析:

1 將no改為 not

2 將place改為land

place是可數(shù)名詞，作“地方”講，而land意為“土地，田地”是不可數(shù)名詞。例如：

Solitude is a good place to visit but a poor place to stay.

當(dāng)你偶爾光顧時(shí)，獨(dú)處是一個(gè)美妙的境地，但是如果久留，它卻是一個(gè)糟糕的地方。

There is a vacant piece of land near the house; we can build there.

3 將started改為start

start應(yīng)使用不定式，以和前面的find，build一致。

4 將working改為work。

work應(yīng)該用第三人稱(chēng)復(fù)數(shù)，和live一致。另外，family在這里作“家人”講，是復(fù)數(shù)。

5 將anyone改為everyone

這里是要用everyone指每個(gè)人，而不是要用anyone泛指。

6 將but刪除

7將before改為after

根據(jù)上下文判斷，這里要表達(dá)的是二戰(zhàn)之后。

8 將But改為 And

根據(jù)語(yǔ)意，這里要表達(dá)的是遞進(jìn)關(guān)系，而不是轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系。例如：

When I do good, I feel good. When I do bad, I feel bad. And that’s my religion.

當(dāng)我行善事，我感到坦然;當(dāng)我行惡時(shí)，我感到內(nèi)疚。這就是我的人生之道。

9 將it改為they

10 在house the中間加入介詞as

regard…as 作“把……當(dāng)作……”講。
