34、梦想；渴望”。2第三句：第二个thea考查冠词。此处表示泛指度假，故将the改为a。3第三句：第二个andor考查连词。under the sea与in space是选择关系，故将and改为or。4第四句：programprograms考查名词。此处program是可数名词，前面有more修饰，应用复数形式，故将program改为programs。5第五句：gogoing考查非谓语动词。介词短语instead of后应加动词的ing形式，故将go改为going。6第六句：thatwhich考查定语从句的引导词。关系代词that不能引导非限制性定语从句，故将that改为which。7第六句：wasis考查动词的时态。含有让步状语从句的句子中，主句谓语动词用一般将来时，从句谓语动词用一般现在时表将来，故将was改为is。8第六句：去掉going后的to考查固定短语。go shopping是固定短语，表示“去购物”，故去掉to。9第七句：theirour考查代词。结合语境，该句应表示“我认为我们的生活会更便捷”，故将their改为our。10第七句：happyhappier考查形容词的比较级。与easier, more colorful并列，都应用比较级形式，故将happy改为happier。
