74、self.She smiles and told me that her patients were most important than our family members.1.【解析】第一句在doctor前加a。doctor是可数名词,该句的主语是“My mother”,所以此处泛指“一名医生”,且doctor的读音是以辅音音素开头,所以用不定冠词a。2.【解析】第二句kind改为kindly。分析句子可知,此处应用副词修饰动词treats。故将kind改为kindly。3.【解析】第三句pay改为pays。分析句子可知,that引导的宾语从句中主语是she,所以动词用第三人称单数形式
75、。故将pay改为pays。4.【解析】第四句or改为and。句意:许多人称赞她伟大的美德和优秀的医疗水平。分析句子可知,her great virtue和her excellent medical level之间是并列关系,所以用连词and。故将or改为and。5.【解析】第五句cared改为caring。be busy doing sth.是固定搭配,意为“忙于做某事”。6.【解析】第六句day改为days。day是可数名词,根据前面的several可知,此处应用复数形式。7.【解析】第七句去掉because后的of。because是从属连词,引导原因状语从句,because of是介词短语
76、,后接名词(短语)、代词、动名词。she hardly had time to accompany myself是一个句子,所以此处应用连词because。8.【解析】第七句myself改为me。分析句子可知,该句的主语是she,宾语是me,当主宾是同一个人时用反身代词,所以此处应用代词的宾格me。9.【解析】第八句smiles 改为 smiled。根据后面的and told可知,此处也用一般过去时与told并列。故将smiles 改为 smiled。10.【解析】第八句most 改为 more。根据后面的介词than可知,此处应用形容词的比较级。.书面表达(2021陕西模拟)假定你是李华,你
