易错句子The children choruses the new song happily.
正确表达The children chorus the new song happily.
英语要求主谓一致:主语 The children 是复数,谓语动词用原形 chorus;choruses 只用于第三人称单数主语(如 The child choruses...)。汉语动词不随主语的人称和数变化,所以容易多写 -es。

易错句子The whole class choired the answer together.
正确表达The whole class chorused the answer together.
choir 只是名词,指“合唱团”这一群人,不能作谓语;表示“齐声说、齐声唱”的动词是 chorus,过去式为 chorused。汉语“合唱”一词兼有名、动两种用法,学生容易把名词 choir 直接当动词用。

易错句子Yesterday the students in Class 3 chorus the school song loudly.
正确表达Yesterday the students in Class 3 chorused the school song loudly.
句中有明确的过去时间状语 Yesterday,谓语必须用过去式;chorus 是规则动词,过去式加 -ed 变成 chorused。汉语靠“昨天”这类词表示时间,动词本身不变形,因此容易漏掉过去式。
与 chorus 表示齐声相反,指单独表演
