参考答案及解析　　
参考答案及解析：

　　1.At -> Since

　　介词误用，属词法错误题。此介词短语充当句子的时间状语，整个句子的时态是现在完成时，故介词应用since。

　　2.we 前加have

　　句法错误。状语not until…提前，后面的主句主谓倒装，根据上下文和谓语managed可推断该句应为完成时。

　　3.everything -> nothing 或 impossible -> possible

　　逻辑反义词，属逻辑错误。根据上下文和文章中心内容，此处应该说的是“在卡通动画世界里，没有什么是不可能的”。

　　4.creating -> created

　　非谓语动词误用，属词法错误。此处的非谓语动词与它的逻辑主语Felix the Cat(菲力克斯猫)是被动关系，所以用过去分词。

　　5.for -> like或as

　　介词错误。“把….当….用”应该说为 use…like / as.

　　6.characteristics -> characters

　　近形词混淆，属词法错误。Characteristic意为“特点、特性”，而此处指的是“卡通人物”，故用characters.

　　7.are -> were

　　8.profession -> professional

　　近形词混淆。Profession是名词，意为“职业”，而这里指的意思应该是“专业人员”，professional作形容词时意为“专业的”，作名词时意为“专业人员”。

　　9.use -> using

　　非谓语动词误用。介词后面应该跟名词或动名词。

　　10.what -> that 或 /
