Last summer vacation, I worked in restaurant. One day, I was about to be off duty while three foreigners came in. Since it was my first time to talk with foreigner, suddenly my mind went blankly. I failed to respond to their questions. And a few minutes later, I refreshed myself. So, I began to talk to them and adapt to that atmosphere gradually. I restarted to pick up my confident again. One of them, that seemed in his thirties, praised on me for my self­confidence. After that, I swore I must learn English well, especially spoken English, and never make that embarrassing thing happening again.

2. while → when

6. adapt → adapted

7. confident → confidence

8. that → who

9.去掉on

【解析】

这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了，作者去年暑假在餐馆工作时，和外国人交谈的故事。

1. 考查冠词。本句意为“去年暑假，我在一家餐馆工作。”，此处泛指“一家餐馆”，restaurant以辅音音素开头，应用不定冠词a表泛指。故在restaurant前面加a。

2. 考查连词。固定结构be about to do…when…（正要做某事时，突然……），应用连词when。故将while改为when。

3. 考查名词的数。由上文的three foreigners可知，此处指“3个外国人”，应用名词的复数。故将foreigner改为foreigners。

4. 考查形容词。go可做系动词使用，意为“变得”，后接形容词作表语。故将blankly改为blank。

5. 考查连词。本句意为“但是几分钟后，我恢复了精神。”，上一句“我没能回答他们的问题。”，前后两句表转折，应用连词But，首字母大写。故将And改为But。

6. 考查时态。本文讲述过去发生的事，应用一般过去时，adapt也用一般过去时与began是并列谓语。故将adapt改为adapted。

7. 考查名词。pick up（拾起），后接名词作宾语，用名词confidence。故将confident改为confidence。

8. 考查定语从句关系词。One of them是先行词，指人，后接一个非限制性定语从句，先行词在从句中作主语，应用关系代词who。故将that改为who。

9. 考查动词。praise是及物动词，后面直接接名词作宾语，去掉on。故去掉on。

10. 考查动词。固定搭配make sb./sth. do sth.（使某人/物干某事），应用动词原形happen。故将happening改为happen。
