Answer 1

答案：
解析：

1．is－are　　因主語是ideas。 　　2．people后加who　　在定語從句中作主語的關(guān)系代詞不能省略。 　　3．去掉the　　go back to school表示“回校上學(xué)”是固定的短語，強(qiáng)調(diào)動作。如果表示到學(xué)校去，在school前應(yīng)加定冠詞the。 　　4．where－which或that　　此處關(guān)聯(lián)詞在定語從句中作主語，而where在從句中作狀語。 　　5．few－fewer　　用比較級表示“較少的”。 　　6．√ 　　7．paid－pay　　根據(jù)上下文，此處應(yīng)用現(xiàn)在時態(tài)。 　　8．retired－retire此處retire和stop是并列成份，所以應(yīng)用原形。 　　9．在do前加can　　so that引導(dǎo)目的狀語從句，從句中需用can，could，might等情態(tài)動詞。 　　10．在good前加a idea是可數(shù)名詞，表示單數(shù)其前應(yīng)加不定冠詞。
