b. Corrections: Read the sentences, pick out the wrong characters, and write the correct ones in the blanks.

c. Synonyms: Circle the synonym for the phrase underlined.

d. Circle the correct word/phrase.

e. Fill in the blanks with correct phrase, which you can pick from the word bank given.

f. Write down the 部首，注音，and Pinyin for some Chinese characters (from this week's homework).
