48、词混用。该处表示“我的第十二个生日”，应用序数词。the改为a/one。冠词误用或冠词和限定词混用。此处第一次在语境中出现，应用不定冠词，且pair的发音以辅音音素开头，故用不定冠词a；此处表示“一双旱冰鞋”，也可用“one pair of roller skates”表示。eye改为eyes。名词的单复数误用。eye为可数名词，此处指“我的眼睛”，为复数概念，故用eye的复数形式eyes。total改为totally。形容词和副词混用。副词修饰动词，此处修饰动词changed，应用副词形式。删除so。连词多用。because不能和so连用，故删除so。learn改为learned/learnt。动词时态误用。根据主句中的“became”可知，此处陈述的事情发生在过去，应用一般过去时。confidence改为confident。形容词和名词混用。由该句中的and可知，此处与形容词outgoing并列，都作表语，故用形容词confident。plenty后加of。介词漏用。plenty of为固定搭配，意为“众多、大量”。me改为myself。代词误用。此处表示“相信我自己”，应用反身代词myself。met改为meeting。非谓语动词形式误用。分析该句结构可知，主语I和动词meet为逻辑上的主谓关系，故用meet的现在分词形式meeting。
