2. questioning -> questioned
这句when后省略了I was。 3. one前加can
带有否定含义的状语In no country提前,主谓要倒装。这句话it had been said是插入语成分,主语和谓语分别是one和 experience,所以要在one前加can。这句话的意思是:除了英国之外没有一个国家能在一天内经历4个季节。4. was -> / 或was前加she
while从句完整的应该是while she was an infant。根据英语中的省略规则,主从句主语一致、从句谓语包含be动词时,可以省略从句的主语和be动词,而不可以只省略主语。5. he前加did
当only修饰的状语提前时,主句的主谓要倒装。故在he前加did。注:如果only修饰的是主语时,主谓不用倒装,例如:Only my sister can do this job.
