Answer 1

【答案】

【1】teach→ teaching

【2】potentially→ potential

【3】absolutely→ absolute

【4】worn→ wearing

【5】Compare→ Compared

【6】while→ when

【7】going→ to go

【8】later→ latter

【9】Having后面加been

【10】fewer→ less

【解析】

【1】teach→ teaching 这里用动名词作表语，与前面的is构成系表结构。

【2】potentially→ potential 句意：喝酒驾车有潜在的危险。修饰名词应该用形容词。

【3】absolutely→ absolute 修饰后面的名词equality，故应该用形容词形式。

【4】worn→ wearing the man与wear之间是主动关系，故应该用现在分词作伴随状语，而不是过去分词。

【5】Compare→ Compared 由两个句子间没有连词，只是逗号连接，而且后面一句是完整的句子，可判断前面一句应该是非谓语动词结构，又根据the biggest ocean与非谓语动词compare之间是被动关系可知，要把Compare改为Compared。

【6】while→ when 句意：我正要出去突然电话响了。when表示“就在这时”，而while没有此意。

【7】going→ to go make up one’s mind to do sth.下决心做某事，故把going改为to go。

【8】later→ latter later是副词，意为“后来”；latter是名词，意为“后者”。故later改为latter。

【9】Having后面加been 句意：已经被告诉很多次了，他仍然不懂。是被告诉，故要在Having后面加been。

【10】fewer→ less damage是不可数名词，要用little修饰，根据这里用的是比较级，故要把fewer改为less。
