Dear David,

I am studying in University of Toronto. Now I have some problems with my roommates, Tom, and I am writing to ask you for some help. Tom is basically a good guy, and he doesn’t care much about what he does. He pays no attention to the room tidiness, often left his things about. He plays very loud music with the rest time. At times, I found him using others’ daily things without permission. What is worse, he often brings my friends here to drink, talking and laughing loud. I have been tried to ask him not to do so, but he doesn’t listen to me. What should I do? Would you be so kind that to give me some advice?

Yours,

Zhang Hua

Answer 1

【答案】

【1】在in后加the

【2】roommates→ roommate

【3】and→ but

【4】left→ leaving

【5】with→ in/during

【6】found→ find

【7】my→ his

【8】loud→ loudly

【9】tried→ trying

【10】删除that

【解析】

【1】在in后加the 考查冠词。此处特指多伦多大学，故加定冠词the。

【2】roommates→ roommate 考查名词单复数。这里室友是指Tom，所以应用单数。

【3】and→ but 考查连词。前后两句之间是转折关系，故用but。

【4】left→ leaving 考查非谓语动词。由He pays no attention to the room tidiness, often left his things about.可知，逗号后为非谓语动词作状语且与主语he构成主动关系，故用现在分词作状语。

【5】5. with→ in/during 考查介词。表示“在……期间”可使用介词in或during。

【6】6. found→ find 考查时态。表示经常性或习惯性的动作应用一般现在时。

【7】7. my→ his 考查代词。与he相呼应故用his。

【8】8. loud→ loudly 考查副词。修饰talking and laughing应使用副词形式。

【9】9. tried→ trying 考查时态和语态。因为I与try之间是主动关系，故把tried改为 trying。have been trying to do sth.为现在完成进行时，意为“一直试图做某事”。

【10】10. 去掉that 考查固定句型。“be kind to do sth.”意为“做某事是善良的”。
