arrived at the lecture hall in time， the audience had been present.I owe my great thanks to my neighbor Jackie，who is a person ready to help others at any time.‎ 第一处：consideration→considerate　系动词be后应接形容词作表语，be considerate to sb.意为“对某人体贴”。故将consideration改为considerate。‎ 第二处：while→when　was doing...when...是固定句式，when作连词，意为“就在这时……；突然……”。故将while改为when。‎ 第三处：starting→started　get在句中是系动词，主语与动词start之间是被动关系，要用被动形式，故将starting改为started。‎ 第四处：come→came　根据上下文可知，本文描述的是发生在过去的事情，应用一般过去时。故将come改为came。‎ 第五处：hurried→hurriedly　修饰going
