Tom was having much trouble get up in the morning and was always late with work. His boss wanted to fire him if he didn’t start coming on time, but he went to the doctor for a help. The doctor gave him some medicine and told him to take them before he went to bed. The man does as told and slept really well, wake up before the alarm had even gone off. He had time for a properly breakfast and was the first reach the factory. “Boss,” he said, “that medicine really works!” “I’m pleasing to hear it,” said his boss, “but where were you yesterday?”

Answer

1.get改为getting

2.with改为for

3.but改为so

4.去掉a

5.them改为it

6.does---did

7.wake改为waking

8.properly改为proper

9.reach前加to

10.pleasing改为pleased

【解析】1考查固定搭配。have trouble（in） doing sth.表示"做某事有困难"，为固定用法。故要把get改为getting。

2．考查固定搭配。with改为for。 be late for work"上班迟到",为固定用法。

3．考查连词。but改为so。如果他不按时上班的话，老板要解雇他。因此他去看心理医生。从两句意思来看是因果关系，而非转折。故用so。

4．考查冠词。他去心理医生那寻找帮助。help为不可数名词，应去掉它前面的不定冠词故去掉a。

5．考查代词。医生给了他一些药并且让他在睡前吃文中的medicine为不可数名词,所以只能用it指代，them改为it。

6．考查非谓语。这个男人按医生的嘱咐做了，而且睡的很好，闹钟还没响就醒来。wake改为waking。现在分词作状语。注意该句的结构，and连接did及slept两个谓语动词，动词wake不能用过去式，因为不是并列谓语，此处应用现在分词短语作结果状语。

7．考查形容词作定语。properly改为 proper。题中应用形容词作定语修饰名词breakfast， properly不能作定语，应该用形容词作定语。

8．考查非谓语。序数词后或被序数词修饰的名词后用动词不定式作定语。题中to reach the factory修饰the first(man)，reach前加to 。

9．考查系表结构。pleasing改为pleased。 pleased表示"高兴的,满意的"，主语一般为人；pleasing表示"令人高兴的"，主语一般为物。

10．√。
