a window.Seeing nobody around，I ran away immediately.When Dad came home，he noticed my uneasiness and asked me what happened.I could only tell him truth.Instead of ，he praised my honesty and then encouraged me to apologize our neighbor.I learned from this incident that not only does Dad take care of my health he also teaches me to be a good citizen.How I am to have such a good father!第一處：刪除however。考查連詞。在as引導的讓步狀語從句中，表語放句首時，從句倒裝，分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知，however多余。第二處：her改為his?？疾榇~。與上文人稱代詞he保持一致可知，此處應用形容詞性物主代詞his。第三處：neighbor改為neighbors?？疾槊~所有格形式。此處用名詞所有格形式作定語，修飾名詞window。第四處：has改為had。考查動詞時態(tài)。與asked呼應可知，此處應用過去完成時，表示過去的過去。第五處：a改為the?？疾楣谠~。tell the truth為固定詞組搭配，符合語境，故用定冠詞the。第六處：scold改為scolding。考查動名詞。介詞后跟名詞、代詞或動名詞作賓語，故用動名詞scolding作介詞of的賓語。第七處：our前加to?？疾榻樵~。apologize to sb.意為“向某人道歉”，為固定詞組搭配，故用介詞to。第八處：and改為but?？疾檫B詞。not only.but also.意為“不但而且”，為固定結(jié)構(gòu)，故用連詞but。第九處：what改為how?？疾橐蓡栐~。與teaches呼應可知，此處表示方式，故用how。第十處：luckily改為lucky?？疾樾稳菰~。與I am呼應可知，此處應用形容詞lucky作表語。
