Dear editor,

I am Evan from Canada. Being the oldest child in the family has its disadvantages. First of all, I have to share all my toys with my young sisters. Of course, they don't need to return to the favor because I'm total uninterested in their things. Besides, they are always hanging around me. I just can't get moment's peace. At meals, I have to eat whichever is on the plate regardless of the taste. My sisters only try one bite if it's not our favorite food. In addition, when it comes to practice our musical instruments, I have to practice more than double the time. Worst of all, I got a larger quantity of housework. Comparing to them, I'm feeling rather annoyed. Can you please give me some advices?

Yours truly,

Evan Smith

4.在get后加a

5.whichever---whatever

7.practice--- practicing

【解析】

试题分析：作为家里最大的孩子，有很多劣势。作者写信向编辑求助。

1.young --- younger 根据句意可知用形容词的比较级，故把young --- younger。

2.把return to后的to去掉 在此处return是及物动词，故把return to后的to去掉。

3.total--- totally 副词修饰形容词，故把total--- totally。

4.在get后加a 句意：得到一个片刻的平静。故在get后加a。

5.whichever---whatever 此处宾语从句中缺少主语，缺少引导词，无选择的意思，故把whichever---whatever。

6.our---their 根据句意可知是：他们最喜爱的食物。故把our---their 。

7.practice--- practicing 在when it comes to句型中，to是介词，故把practice--- practicing。

8.got---get 根据文章整体可知句子用一般现在时态，故把got---get。

9.Comparing ---Compared 固定搭配：Compared to---与---相比较，故把Comparing ---Compared 。

10.

【知识归纳】

1.compare...with...把……和……比较(常表示同类相比，比较)

compare...to...把……比作……(常表示异类相比，比喻)

①Let's compare this photo with that one. 让我们把这张照片和那张照片作一下比较。

②Children are often compared to happy birds. 孩子常常被比喻成幸福的小鸟。

2.Compared to/with---，----。与---相比较。Compared to those boys，you are lucky.与那些男孩相比较，你是幸运的。
