23、d was wonderful with reasonable prices, and we enjoyed several local dis.It is such great hotel that I would recommend it to any friend of m who is going to Beijing.1visitvisited根据时间状语last month可知本句时态是一般过去时,故动词用过去式。2butand/so前后文是承接或因果关系,故连词用and或so。3to去掉anywhere是指地点的副词,其前不用介词。4comfortablycomfortable修饰名词doubleroom应用形容词。5werewaswhat引导主语从句,其谓语动词应用单数形式,故系动词were改为was。6forwith动词share与介词with构成搭配,意思是“和某人分享”。7takingtakentake与所修饰词photos是逻辑上的动宾关系,故用过去分词作后置定语。8dishdishes由several修饰,名词应用复数。9such后加asuch修饰的hotel是可数名词单数,需加不定冠词a。10memine双重所有格的构成是“of 名词性物主代词或名词所有格”。
