英语短文改错 高分！

There are 10 easy-to-find mistakes in the following three paragraphs. Please underline the mistakes and put them right. (改错。找到一个错误并改对，得1分；找到错误但没有改对，得0.5分。满分10分) 。
My interest with computers began with video games I used to play at a local shopping mall. My parents disliked these games, and perhaps this dislike explains why they refuse to take computers seriously. Personal computers that operate as word processors and do other jobs look to them like mechanical games. Same do the pocket calculators my friends and I use to do math.
A word processor I used in my senior year to write papers for English may explain this suspicion. A word processor is a small computer program to work like a typewriter. The keyboard is similar to a typewriter. The major difference is that in a processor “function keys” do many more jobs. Specifically, the typed words appear on the “monitor” or screen above the keyboard, and since you “edit” these words on the screen, the processor has extra keys that erase words or whole lines or move it to other places in the paragraph or essay. The other convenience is that corrected pages don’t have to be retyped. The processor has an attached printer and press a button transfers the text on the screen to “hard copy” – computer jargon for typed copy produced by the printer.
Processors thus make the job of writing look easy. One of my teachers objected that a paper I wrote on a processor looked as if a bank statement; he was objecting to the broken letters that a cheap “dot-matrix” printer like mine produces. He didn’t want to tell me his real objection – that writing a paper should not be easy. He obviously assumed that the processor and printer made the writing easy by doing the work. But the printer doesn’t write the paper, it just reproduces what I write with the processor. The real work is in writing the paper and editing the words on the screen. In fact, the ease of making corrections with a processor give me greater control over my writing. I didn’t use to proofread a paper to avoid having to edit a page or retype it. The processor encourages me to look for mistakes.

改对了一定给分啊！哈哈哈...（括号内是正确答案）

My interest with（in） computers began with video games I used to play at a local shopping mall. My parents disliked these games, and perhaps this dislike explains why they refuse（refused） to take computers seriously. Personal computers that operate(operated) as word processors and do other jobs look to them like mechanical games. Same(加上to) do the pocket calculators my friends and I use to do math.

A word processor I used in my senior year to write papers for English may explain this suspicion. A word processor is a small computer program to work（working） like a typewriter. The keyboard is similar to a typewriter. The major difference is that in a processor “function keys” do many(该词多余，删除) more jobs. Specifically, the typed words appear on the “monitor” or screen above the keyboard, and since（then) you “edit” these words on the screen, the processor has extra keys that erase words or whole lines or move it to other places in the paragraph or essay. The other convenience is that corrected pages don’t have to be retyped. The processor has an attached printer and press a button transfers the text on the screen to “hard copy” – computer jargon for typed copy produced by the printer.
Processors thus make the job of writing look(looked) easy. One of my teachers objected that a paper I wrote on a processor looked as if a bank statement; he was objecting to the broken letters that a cheap “dot-matrix” printer like mine produces. He didn’t want to tell me his real objection – that writing a paper should(would) not be easy. He obviously assumed that the processor and printer made the writing easy by doing the work. But the printer doesn’t write the paper, it just reproduces what I write with the processor. The real work is in writing the paper and editing the words on the screen. In fact, the ease of making corrections with a processor give(gives) me greater control over my writing. I didn’t use to proofread a paper to avoid having to edit a page or retype it.
