35、home,I and /thoughtthinkinggetgotsaid to my parents, “Everything was great about the camping.I want to be theateacher like Anna in the future.”第一处:删除 for。考查固定搭配。go camping 表示“野营” ,故介词 for 多余。第二处:they 改为 we。考查代词。与上文人称代词 we 保持一致可如,此处应用 we。第三处:airs 改为 air。考查名词复数。air 在此处表示“空气” ,是不可数名词,故没有复数形式。第四处:highly
