40、onest改为honesty。此处指他成功的秘诀是诚实，应用名词形式。or改为and。根据语境可知，fresh vegetables和high quality oil之间是并列关系，所以应用and连接。using改为used。use和其逻辑主语之间是被动关系，且be used for doing sth.为固定搭配，意为“被用来做某事”。句意为：每天他都确保用新鲜的蔬菜和高质量的油来烹饪。在dreams后加of/about。dream of/about (doing) sth.为固定搭配，意为“梦想(做)某事”。句意为：我叔叔说他从未梦想在短期内富裕起来。the改为a。in a short period of time为常用表达，意为“在短时间内”。our改为his。此处指叔叔的生意，故用形容词性物主代词his。steady改为steadily。此处表示“稳定地增长”，修饰动词grow，应用副词。
