参考答案

  参考答案及解析:
  1.smoke -> smoking
  smoke作名词时意为“烟雾”,作动词时意为“吸烟”。此处指吸烟和肺部疾病的关系
  故使用smoking。
  2.and -> / 或and -> then
  and是并列连词,连接两个对称的分句。但此处前面是条件状语从句,不对称,故应该去掉and或将and改为 then,使后面变成主句
  3.with -> of
  accuse sb of sth 意为“为….而控告或谴责某人”,不能使用介词with
  4.a -> /
  此处显然不是“在一家好公司”( in a good company)的意思,而是说“有人和你作伴”(in good company)。此处的company意为“陪伴”,抽象名词,前面不用冠祠。
  5.not -> /
  逻辑错误
  6.that -> why
  此处的意思是要找到“为什么官方对医学发现应冷淡”。
  7.simple -> simply
  这里的句意是“答案仅仅是钱”,故使用副词simply。simple的意思是“简单”。
  8.lonely -> alone
  lonely意为“孤独”的,alone意为“单独,一个”,此处意为“单税收一项”,故用alone
  9.collect -> collects
  本句的主语是the government of Britain ,是单数,所以谓语collect也要用单数。
  10.harmful前加be
  本句的conceivably 是插入语,如果不看它的话,就很容易看出这个句子缺少了系动词be。
