the ——- (correct) of the students' examination papers took him a long time

问题描述:

the ——- (correct) of the students' examination papers took him a long time
是填correcting还是correction,为什么,

两者都是可以的,只是这里的作业肯定是考你动名词的相关知识,所以答案是correcting.correction是名词,表示“改正”这一行为;
correcting动名词,更强调“改正”这一动作的过程.
个人觉得两者真的没什么差别,答案选什么无所谓,你自己弄懂就行.
