32、for our kindness. I was very that day. This experience made me realize that English is useful and worth learning. I will work hard at it from now on.难项分析:第二处:whosewho/that考查定语从句的引导词。when引导的句子是一个含有定语从句的复合句,定语从句修饰先行词a foreign visitor,引导词在从句中作主语,故将whose改为who或that。第四处:tall前加a考查不定冠词。此处表示“一个高个子年轻女士”前来帮助,为泛指概念,应用“a/an单数可数名词”,tall的发音是以辅音音素开头的,故应加a。第八处:excitingexcited考查过去分词作表语。exciting用来描述事物的本身的特征;excited用来描述人的主观心理活动,意为“(觉得)激动的,兴奋的”,故将现在分词改为过去分词。
