【解析】单句改错题是考查学生的识别能力、分析能力和综合运用英语知识能力。做单句改错题首先要读通句子，在此基础上，根据不同的情况，用所掌握的语法、词汇知识为标准，具体排除干扰，判断、找出错误，予以改正。

（1）may–can/ could考查情态动词。此句表推测，may表示的可能性很小，且表推测时不用于疑问句，故may–can/ could.

（2）删去whether考查连词。一个宾语从句只需要一个引导词，表示不怀疑，用that引导，故删去whether.

（3）where–what考查连词。宾语从句，作介词to的宾语，在宾语从句中 call 在这里接的是复合宾语。 call 之后的London是宾语补足语， 可见还缺宾语， 所以用连接代词what, 作call 的宾语，故where–what.

（4）weighs–weighing或weighs前加which考查现在分词。用现在分词weighing作定语，修饰名词stone，与之是主动关系；或定语从句（weighs前加which）作定语，which代词先行词stone，在从句中作主语，故weighs–weighing或weighs前加which.

（5）managed–tried考查动词。manage to do sth.（设法成功做某事），而try to do sth.（尽力去做某事），根据句意是失败了的，不能用manage，故managed–tried.

（6）the impression后加 that考查连词。名词impression（印象）后接同位语从句，从句不缺任何成份，所以要加引导词that，故the impression 后加that.

（7）exist—exists考查动词。这是一个完全倒装句，谓语动词exist后的a natural satellite（一个天然卫星）是主语，所以谓语动词要用第三人称单数形式，故exist—exists.

（8）That—What考查连词。主语从句中谓语动词regard后缺少宾语，所以要用连接代词what作宾语，故That—What.

（9）words—word考查名词。句意：诚实是一个原则问题，所以无论何时何地，你都必须信守诺言。固定短语：keep your word（信守诺言），故words—word.

（10）involved—involving考查现在分词。现在分词involving（涉及到）作定语修饰名词experiment，故involved—involving.
