23、一些我的建议：报纸应该丰富多彩。另外，最好设立一个专门的专栏，我们可以表达我们的感受。1考查冠词。泛指一个，所以用不定冠词，English是以元音开头的，所以用an，the改为an。 2考查过去分词。表示“被开办”，所以用被动语态，starting改为started。 3考查名词的数。tip为可数名词，前面有some，所以用复数，tip改为tips。 4.考查句子结构。加上be构成主系表结构，所以should后面加be。 5考查副词。修饰动词，所以用副词，所以 regular改为regularly。6考查非限制性定语从句。先行词为物，在非限制性定语从句中作主语，表示“这”，用which引导，所以as改为which。 7考查定语从句。先行词为column，在定语从句中作地点状语，用where引导或用in which，所以which前面加in或which改为where。 8考查人称代词。指表达我们的感情，用our，所以your改为our。 9考查动名词。practice doing sth.练习做某事，所以express改为expressing。10考查动词。follow为及物动词，后面直接跟宾语，所以去掉in。
