Answer 1

1. 刪去the.

    2. month改為months.

    3. interested后加in.

    4. him改為himself.

5. do改為did.

 6. 此行無錯。

7. beaten改為beating.

 8. will改為would.

    9. surprised改為surprise.

    10. said后加was.

解析:

1. 刪去the.冠詞錯誤。finish school意為"完成學業， 畢業"， school為抽象名詞， 前不加冠詞。

    2. month改為months.名詞單復數錯誤。several修飾可數名詞復數形式。

    3. interested后加in.介詞錯誤。be interested in是固定詞組。

    4. him改為himself.代詞錯誤， 根據文意應為"自稱是".

    5. do改為did.動詞錯誤。句意應為"我聽說你（過去）學習不錯"， 因為現已畢業。

    6. 此行無錯。

    7. beaten改為beating.非謂語動詞錯誤。a beating heart相當于a heart which is beating.

    8. will改為would.動詞時態錯誤。主句是過去時，賓語從句要用相應的時態。

    9. surprised改為surprise.to one's surprise/joy為習語搭配，只能是名詞。

    10. said后加was.動詞謂語漏用錯誤。What he said是主語從句，was disappointing是謂語。
