It was Professor Egghead. He looked worrying. One of the professor’s student was at the station. He tried his best to comforting the professor. “It wasn’t really badly, sir,” said the student. “Two out of three caught the train.

【解析】

这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述三位教授在车站候车，两位教授最后上车，而第三位教授错过车的故事。

1.考查动词时态。由后文“They were deep in conversation.”的谓语动词时态都是一般过去时可知，be动词are需用一般过去时were。故将are改成were。

2.考查介词。谓语动词notice，表示“注意”的意思，是一个及物动词，后直接接it作宾语，无需介词。故将to去掉。

3.考查动词时态。分析句子结构可知，动词shout在句中作谓语，由前后文的时态都是一般过去时可知，谓语动词shout需用一般过去时shouted。故将shouts改成shouted。

4.考查冠词。分析句子可知，由第三句“The train had just arrived, but they didn’t notice to it.”表示的是这趟火车刚到，但是他们没有注意到它。由此可见，名词train是特指进站的火车，需用定冠词the。故将a改成the。

5.考查连词。分析句子可知，句子“Two of them got on the train”表示的是他们中的两位上车了，“it closed”表示的是火车关闭了。“上车”的动作要发生在“火车关闭”之前，需用连词before。故将after改成before。

6.考查形容词。分析句子结构可知，系动词look后需接形容词作表语，worry是动词，形容词是worrying/worried，由主语he可知，这是对人的一种情绪的描述，需用过去分词worried，表示“担心的”的意思。故将worrying改成worried。

7.考查名词复数。分析句子可知，one of +名词的复数是固定结构，表示的是“……之一”，名词student需用复数形式。故将student改成students。

8.考查非谓语动词。分析句子可知，动词comfort在句中作宾语，谓语动词是try his best，表示“努力”的意思，后需接动词不定式to do作宾语。故将comforting改成comfort。

9.考查形容词。分析句子可知，be动词wasn’t后需接形容词作表语，badly是副词，需转换为形容词bad。故将badly改为bad。

10.考查代词。分析句子可知，名词train前需用形容词性物主代词，mine是名词性物主代词，需转变为形容词性物主代词my。故将mine改为my。
