33、is known to all意为“众所周知”。故将it去掉。答案：第一句去掉it2解析：考查名词。句子主语是the Great Wall ，应使用单数名词指代它。故将places改为place。答案：第一句placesplace3解析：考查连词。句意：每个人都想去，当然我也不例外。前后的两个简单句是并列关系。故将but改为and。答案：第二句butand4解析：考查动词的时态。句意：我一直盼望的那一天终于来了。这一天来临已经是过去，一直盼望发生在来之前，即过去的过去，因此应使用过去完成进行时。故将have改为had。答案：第三句havehad5解析：考查动词的时态。分析句子结构可知，I ha

34、ve been looking forward to是定语成分，修饰the day，come是主句的谓语动词，这一天已经到了，陈述过去的事情，应使用一般过去时。故将coming改为came。答案：第三句comingcame6解析：考查with的复合结构。在这个结构中，follow是Tim发出的动作，它们之间是主谓关系，因此使用现在分词作宾语补足语。故将followed改为following。答案：第四句followedfollowing7解析：考查冠词。此处意为“一个看起来像是市场的地方”。因为是首次提到，而且不是特指，且large是以辅音音素开头。故将the改为a。答案：第五句thea8解析
