详解：
1．加a 考查固定搭配．live a…life意为"过…的生活"，是固定搭配．
2．are改为were 考查动词时态．此处讲述的是过去的事情，要用一般过去时态．
3．too改为so 考查固定句型．so…that…意为"如此/这么…以致于…"，句型中的so是副词，常常用来修饰形容词或副词，常用句型为：主语+谓语+so+adj．/adv．+that从句．
4．Besides改为However 考查副词．however表示转折，尤其用于谈及一个既成事实时，表示转折，其意为"可是""仍然"等．可放在句首、句中或句末，通常用逗号与句子其他成分隔开．
5．去掉been 考查动词语态．take place是不及物动词短语，没有被动语态，been是多余的，要去掉．
6．bright改为brighter 考查形容词比较级．and是并列连词，它前后连接两个相同的语法成分，larger和brighter都是形容词比较级作表语．
7．car改为cars 考查名词复数．car与people一致，要用复数形式．
8．of改为with 考查介词．be decorated with意为"被用…装饰"，是固定搭配．
9．it改为which 考查定语从句．分析句子结构可知这是一个定语从句，先行词是前面整个句子，在从句中作主语，用关系代词which．
10．developing改为developed 考查过去分词．developed意为"（国家，地区）（经济、社会）发达的"，developing意为"发展中的"，此处应是：（国家，地区）（经济、社会）发达的．
点评 高考短文改错题的形式有说明文，短文故事，书信等，具有很强的实用性．短文的内容和语言都符合高中学生的实际，从表面上看类似一篇学生习作．首先，通读全文，了解短文大意，把握全篇的时态、人称及行文逻辑，在通读全文时把一些容易的错误先改好，再进行逐句改错．其次，要进行逐个句子的改错．这是要对文中的词法、句法和语篇着重分析和特别注意．最后把改好的短文再阅读一遍，检查答案是否正确，感觉是否还有不妥之处，最终形成定稿．
