40、than we had before.解析1.本句的主语为One of my happiest childhood memories，为单数形式，谓语动词也应用单数形式。故将were改为was。2分析句子结构可知，此处用动词的现在分词形式作状语，且find的动作发生在decided的动作之前，故用现在分词的完成式。3此处用three evenings a week来表达“一周内三个晚上”，类似于three a week(一周三次)的表达。故将the改为a。4根据前文中setting three fixed days可知，Fridays和Mondays，Wednesdays之间为并列关系，故用a
41、nd连接。故将or改为and。5week意为“周”，为可数名词，其前有a couple of“一对；几个”修饰，应用复数形式。故将week改为weeks。6would rather do sth.意为“宁愿做某事”，为固定结构。故将to删除。7gradual放于句首，作状语修饰整个句子，应用副词。故将Gradual改为Gradually。句意为：但逐渐地，他们开始以一种不同的方式看待这些相聚的夜晚。8in a different way意为“以一种不同的方式”，为固定结构。9since后常跟表示时间点的短语(如：last year，this morning,4 oclock)或是跟一般过去时，不能接a few months；根据句意“几个月之后，我们所有人都觉得”可知after符合逻辑。10根据后文中的than we had before可知，这里应用比较级。故将strong改为stronger。
