參考答案與范文：
語篇模板
李華上周在英國參加了學(xué)校組織的“文化交流周”活動，并住在Kelly家里。因此給Kelly寫的一封感謝信。
1.warmly→warm 修飾名詞warm，應(yīng)用形容詞。
2.on→in因participate in為固定搭配，意為“參加”。
3.yourself→myself 因主語是I，應(yīng)該是“我”玩得開心，故用myself。
4.pay→paid 由Last week可知，此處描述的是過去的事情，故用一般過去時。
5.or→and 了解的應(yīng)是“文化與歷史”，而并非“文化或者歷史”。
6.friend→friends 根據(jù)前面的many可知此處應(yīng)用名詞的復(fù)數(shù)形式。
7.在stay前加to 因be lucky to do sth.固定搭配。
8.that→which 此處which引導(dǎo)非限制性定語從句，指代先行詞the dictionary。
9.把make后的the去掉 應(yīng)make full use of為固定搭配，意為“充分利用”。
10.convenience→convenient 系動詞后接形容詞作表語。
