Answer 1

答案：
解析：

1．考查宾语从句关联词的正确选择。将that改为what。think后需加宾语。life would look life不是一句话，不能用that引导，what可以，做表语。 　　2．But→However。however比but语气强烈，可用在句首、句中或句尾。 　　3．考查近义词problem与question的区别。将question改为problem。question表示提出疑问，有待别人给予回答的问题。problem指出现有待解决的问题。 　　4．考查过去分词。将polluting改为polluted。过去分词指“已被污染了的”。 　　5．out→rid。get rid of是固定搭配，意思是“除去，驱除”。 　　6．考查特殊疑问句how与what的辨析。将how改为what。这句话是表示几家工厂努力做的事是制造没有污染的汽车，而不是说他们是怎样制造的。 　　7．考查现在完成时行时态。将tried改为trying。此句不是表示被动，而是表示过去一直做什么，而且可能继续下去的现在完成时进行时。它的基本句型是have been doing。 　　8．本行没有错。 　　9．take之后加the。take the place of是一个固定搭配，意思是“代替，代理”。 　　10．考查作“花费”讲时，spend与take的用法区别。将spend改为take。spend表“花费时间、金钱”时，主语是人。而take则常用于it做形式主语的句子。
