 短文该错 (共10小题; 每小题1分, 满分10分)

One day, while my friend and I was traveling through Germany, we were not very hungry but we only had a little money. We decided stop at a village market to buy something to eat. We choose the cheapest biscuits and ate it under a tree. We thought the biscuits were great. “Let’s got some more,” I said, “They’re cheap and they really taste well.” My friend could read some German, and I couldn’t, so I gave her the biscuit bag to find the name. She looked at it and started to laugh, “How are you laughing?” I asked. “Because of they’re dog biscuits!” She said.
