noodles，my hometownShanxis local food.These foods were all delicious.，my favorite was still Chinese food.第一處：like改為as?？疾榻樵~。此句意為“去年我作為一個(gè)國(guó)際學(xué)生去澳大利亞短期學(xué)習(xí)”，as“作為”，like“像一樣”。第二處：shared改為share?？疾樘摂M語(yǔ)氣。suggest意思是“建議”時(shí)所在賓語(yǔ)從句的謂語(yǔ)只能用“should動(dòng)詞原形”的形式且should可以被省略。第三處：during后加the?？疾楣谠~?？蓴?shù)名詞party在句中表示特指，所以其前必須加定冠詞the。第四處：my改為our?？疾榇~。根據(jù)上文的“We all agreed to this wonderful idea”可知，句子的主語(yǔ)是We, agreed和cooked為并列謂語(yǔ)，所以my改為our。第五處：what改為that/which?？疾槎ㄕZ(yǔ)從句。分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知，cookie后為定語(yǔ)從句，且從句缺少主語(yǔ)，先行詞為名詞cookie，所以改為that/which。第六處：leaf改為leaves?？疾槊~的數(shù)。leaf(葉)是可數(shù)名詞，且其前面有several修飾，所以要用其復(fù)數(shù)形式leaves。第七處：mixing改為mixed?？疾榉侵^語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞。balls與mix之間是邏輯上的動(dòng)賓關(guān)系，故此處用過(guò)去分詞短語(yǔ)mixed with fish作后置定語(yǔ)。第八處：刪除was served中的was?？疾閯?dòng)詞的語(yǔ)態(tài)。serve“供應(yīng)”，是及物動(dòng)詞。該句賓語(yǔ)是Daoxiao noodles，所以結(jié)合上下文和句意應(yīng)去掉was。第九處：variously改為various?？疾樾稳菰~。該句中的名詞foods應(yīng)用形容詞various(各種各樣的)來(lái)修飾，所以把variously改為various。第十處：Therefore改為However?？疾楦痹~和上下文的邏輯關(guān)系。根據(jù)下文尤其是still一詞可知，上下文是轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系，所以Therefore改為However。
