I was only 12 when we moved to California. I remember that I enjoyed flying non-stop across a whole country and that I wasn’t very happy about leave my friends. But Dad think it’d be good for we all to live in a suburb instead in the middle of a city. And Uncle Jeff, his brother, who’d been living in California for about 20 years, were always telling us how wonderful California it was. He said it would be easily for Dad to get a job driving a taxi, that had been Dad’s job in New York. But we all agreed to try it for one year. Now we’ve been here for four years, and we all love it.

Answer 1

1.a改为the

2.leave改为leaving

3.think改为thought

4.we改为us

5.instead后加of

6.were改为was

7.去掉it

8.easily改为easy

9.that改为which

10.But改为So/And

【解析】

1. the whole country穿过整个国家中，the 特指whole country整个国家，定冠词也可特指上文提及的事物，而a表示泛指。故a改为the

2. wasn’t very happy about leaving my friends；离开我的朋友们我不开心。动名词作介词宾语介词about后接动词的现在分词形式，about doing sth.故leave改为leaving

3. Dad think…但是我爸爸认为……全文叙述使用一般过去时，故think改为thought

4. be good for us all to live in…中，be good for sb.to do sth.里的sb.须为人称代词的宾格形式。代词作介词宾语，若是人称代词用作介词宾语，要注意用宾格。故we改为us.

5. of in the middle of a city， instead意为“代替”“替代”，作副词用，通常位于句尾。如位于句首时常用逗号与后面阁开instead of是介宾短语，其意与instead相同，不同之处在于它后面常接宾语，且宾语多由名词、代词、介词、短语、动词 + ing 形式充当。故instead后加of

6. Uncle Jeff, his brother, who’d been living in California for about 20 years, were always telling us…叔叔Jeff，爸爸的兄弟，在加利福尼亚差不多生活了20年，一直告诉我们……中his brother, who’d been living in California for about 20 year是插入语，作为Uncle Jeff的补充说明。Uncle Jeff后be动词为is的过去分词形式was，故were改为was

7. us how wonderful California was告诉我们加州是怎样的美好，这里由that引导的宾语从句，其中that被省略掉，宾语从句语序为v.+主语+谓语。而how wonderful California it was这是多么美好的加利福尼亚，单独来看这是一个完整的感叹句，与宾语从句结构不符。故去掉it

8. would be easy for Dad to get a job driving a taxi对爸爸来说得到一个开出租车的工作很容易。It+be动词+adj.+for+sb.+to do sth.对某人来说做某事怎么样。这里be动词后须填形容词。故easily改为easy

9. had been Dad’s job in New York，这里的which指代前半段句子He said it would be easy for Dad to get a job driving a taxi。故that改为which

10. we all agreed to try it for one year而且我们同意用一年（的时间）去试试。文意表示家人愿意听取Uncle Jeff的建议，So/And表顺承，But表转折。故But改为So/And
