Answer 1

【答案】

【解析】建设节能型社会是我们每个人的职责，然而并不是每个人都意识到了这一点。作者在文中提到了一些浪费水电等的现象，而且在文中也提出了一些具体的措施，比如要养成人走灯灭，随手关掉水龙头等这样的好习惯。

第一处：代词用法错误。It is somebody’s duty to work hard and reach this goal.从语境判断此处指建设节能型社会是所有人们的职责而不是某个人的责任，所以somebody’s改为everybody’s。

第二处：副词用法错误。Besides, not everybody has realized the important of it.前句讲建设节能型社会是我们的职责，而后句说并不是每个人都意识到了重要性，由此可知，前后句是转折关系，把Besides改为However。

第三处：词性用法错误。not everybody has realized the important of it分析句子结构可知realize动词后面应该是宾语，而important形容词不可做宾语，故把important改为importance。

第四处：用词错误。Sometime we can see that lights and computers are still on 。Sometime意思是某个时候；而根据语境此处应该表示“有时候”，所以把Sometime改为Sometimes。

第五处：介词用法错误。 Some students even forget to turn on the tap after using it 从句意判断使用后应该是关掉水龙头，而turn on意思是“打开”，所以把on改为off。

第六处：非谓语用法错误。and have water run all the time. Have sb do sth指让某人去做某事；而此处是让水一直流着，强调动作的持续，所以应该是have sb doing sth ，故把run改为running

第七处：考查定语从句。 which causing much waste.分析结构可知此处如果是定语从句的话，causing是现在分词不做谓语，所以把causing改为cuases； 如果是分词做结果状语的话，那么就应该把which去掉，所以答案是把causing改为cuases或者把which去掉。

第八处：名词数用法错误。make sure that all the light从语境可知此处light是指名词电灯，应该用复数形式。所以把light改为lights。

第九处：语态用法错误。other electric facilities turned off 句意是把电灯等电器关掉，此处是被动意思，所以改为被动句，而且文章是讲平时要养成的习惯，所以用一般现在时态，而且根据主谓一致原则，答案应该在turned前加are。

第十处：词性用法错误。Try to form the habit of turning off the tap immediate after using it. immediate是形容词用来做表语或者定语，而此处是做状语，所以把immediate改为immediately。
