× I just buy some low maintenance plants like succulents.
✓ I just buy some low-maintenance plants like succulents.
这里“low maintenance”作为复合形容词修饰名词时,应使用连字符连接,避免歧义。
× my mother bought me a small floor to take care of.
✓ my mother bought me a small flower to take care of.
原句中的“floor”是“地板”的意思,显然是笔误,应为“flower”(花),这是单复数错误导致的词汇错误。
× Although I tried my best, it survived for a few weeks.
✓ Although I tried my best, it survived only for a few weeks.
句子中“survived”用法正确,但加上“only”更符合表达“只活了几周”的意思,语义更准确。
× I think I'm not good at planting even back then.
✓ I think I wasn't good at planting even back then.
“even back then”指过去时间,谓语时态应使用过去时“wasn't”,而非现在时“am not”。
× I don't have much experience about looking after a plant.
✓ I don't have much experience in looking after a plant.
“experience”后面搭配介词应为“in”而非“about”,这是介词使用错误。
× I often rely on other advice about how to take care of plant, so I prefer buying plants from a store instead of.
✓ I often rely on other advice about how to take care of plants, so I prefer buying plants from a store instead.
“plant”应为复数“plants”,因为指的是一般的植物。句末“instead of”后缺少内容,应去掉“of”。
× I think people prefer practical gifts rather than sending plans at gifts.
✓ I think people prefer practical gifts rather than sending plants as gifts.
“plans”应为“plants”,且“at gifts”应为“as gifts”,这是拼写和介词使用错误。
