60、in) doing sth.“做某事有麻烦/困难”,是固定搭配。47properly考查副词。修饰动词短语put.into应用副词。48suggestion考查名词。空前有形容词性物主代词,所以要填名词suggestion;而且由is可知要用单数形式。49troubles考查时态和主谓一致。结合全文的基本时态可知,应用一般现在时;又因空处主语为something,故填troubles。50of考查介词。“be of名词”是固定用法,其意义相当于该名词的同根形容词;be of great use相当于be greatly useful。.短文改错(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)Last m
