Dear Jane,

It is four days since mother receives the operation. She is feeling much more better. The doctors told me the operation was successful, but because her old age she had to stay in hospital for other two weeks. The doctors also say it was quite necessary for him to do so. We expect to get a full report in two and three days. Please tell the good news to the rest of the family as soon as possible. You needn’t come here. I’m able to look at mother by myself. You can send some flower to her. She will feel very happily.

Yours,

Mary

【答案】

【1】receives→ received

【2】删除more

【3】because后加of

【4】other→ another

【5】say→ said

【6】him→ her

【7】and→ or

【8】at→ after

【9】flower→ flowers

【10】happily→ happy

【解析】

【1】receives改为received。since引导的时间状语从句中用一般过去时。故receives改为received。

【2】删除more。better本身就是比较级，故前面不需要用more来修饰。

【3】because后加of。her old age为名词，故前面应用because of，because引导原因状语从句。

【4】other改为another。another后加数量词，表“再，又”。other其余的。

【5】say改为said。根据前句The doctors told me the operation was successful可知此处还是应该使用一般过去时。故say改为said。

【6】him改为her。此处为her与上文的she保持一致，指代mother。

【7】and改为or。我们期望两三天后得到完整的报告。or或者。

【8】at改为after。我能够独自照顾母亲。look after照顾，照料。

【9】flower改为flowers。flower为可数名词，故flower改为flowers。

【10】happily改为happy。feel为感官系动词，后跟形容词作表语。故happily改为happy。
