參考答案與范文
習作修改
李華上周在英國參加了學校組織的“文化交流周”活動,并住在Kelly家里。這是李華給Kelly寫的一封感謝信。
1. warmly→warm 修飾名詞warm,應用形容詞。
2. on→in因participate in為固定搭配,意為“參加”。
3. yourself→myself 因主語是I,應該是“我”玩得開心,故用myself。
4. pay→paid 由Last week可知,此處描述的是過去的事情,故用一般過去時。
5. or→and 了解的應是“文化與歷史”,而并非“文化或者歷史”。
6. friend→friends 根據前面的many可知此處應用名詞的復數形式。
7. 在stay前加to 因be lucky to do sth. 為固定搭配。
8. that→which 引導非限制性定語從句,只能用which指代先行詞the dictionary。
9. 把make后的the去掉 應make full use of為固定搭配,意為“充分利用”。
10. convenience→convenient 系動詞后接形容詞作表語。

Dear Sure,
Im Li Hua, one of your students in China. Its almost a month since you left us. We all miss you and are very grateful for what you did for us.
We are busy as usual. We had an English speech contest the other day. I won the first prize!This again reminds me of all your kind help. Do you still remember the trees we planted together on the hill behind the school? Yesterday, we went there and watered them. The tree you planted yourself is growing well, and the whole class decided to name it Sue Wood. Will you come back to see Sue Wood?
How is everything with you lately? We hope to know more about you and your American students. Hope to keep in close touch.
All the best.
Yours,
Li Hua
