35、 candies beside my medicine.I up to her and asked, “Hey, what are you doing？” a smile, she said to me, “Candies make me happy I put them here to make you happy today.” That was the greatest thing Id ever experienced.解析：1考查代词。她有时为了糖和我打架。反身代词是动作的发出者把动作施加到动作的发出者本人。此处动作的发出者为she，被施加动作的对象为I，所以不能用反身代词。figh
36、t against sb.“和某人打架”，故用代词的宾格形式。2考查固定句式。make sb.do sth.“使某人做某事”为固定用法。故to多余。3考查形容词。feel为系动词，后接形容词。4考查冠词。cold作“感冒”讲时为可数名词，此处表示“患了一次重感冒”且serious的发音以辅音音素开头。故加冠词a。5考查名词的数。advice为不可数名词，无复数形式。6考查状语从句。根据语境可知，此处表示“当我放学回家时”。故应用When或As。7考查动词的时态。根据全文的时态可知，此处表示发生在过去的动作，应用一般过去时。8考查介词。她微笑着对我说，“糖果使我开心，所以我把它们放在这儿让你今天开心。”with a smile表示“带着微笑”。9考查连词。根据语境可知，此处为并列或因果关系。10考查定语从句。先行词被最高级修饰时，关系代词常用that，本句中由于关系代词在定语从句中作动词experienced的宾语，故也可省略关系代词。故把which改为that或删除which。
