 參考答案及解析:

 1.^they-that.分句後的分句應有它獨立的主謂結構,正像它前面的結構壹樣。而後半句的謂語是is,表語是fact,主語似乎是缺失的,因此在they前面加上that就構成了主語從句作為這半句的主語。

 2.stimuli-stimulus.stimuli看似單數實則是stimulus的復數形式,因此應改為stimulus。

 3.to-/.這裏的need作情態動詞,因此刪去to。

 4.or-nor.並列的否定,用否定形式nor表示倒裝。

 5.on-in.in profile表示 ?側面,從側面?。如:The painting shows her in profile。

 6.^opposed-as.opposed前應使用連詞as引導比較分句。

 7.old-olds.由謂語的復數形式可以看出這裏需要用復數形式four-year-olds。

 8. and-but

 9.furthermore-however.上壹句話指明美國文化中眼睛的重要性,而這壹句話似乎指出日本文化中眼睛並不具有同樣的重要性,因此兩句話的關系是轉折而不是遞進。

 10.like-as.句子中有壹個as?as比較結構。
