5、heir这里指代复数名词 the caricaturists8. 将primary改为primarilyprimarily在这里做状语，修饰不定式短语9. 将close改为比拟级形式closer从后面的连词than，可以看出，这里使用了比拟状语从句10. 将amusing改为 amused主语subject(受攻击的人)和amuse的规律关系是动宾关系，应使用过去分词形式。 part 2 DDT, the most powerful pesticide the world had ever known,exposed natures vulnerability.

9、nducted not far from which she lived in Maryland. _10_ 参考答案： 1.whichwhose。whose在这里作关系限定词，与effectiveness构成名次词组在关系分句里作主语。whose的主语可以是人，也可以是物。 2.destroydestroying。be limited to 词组里的.to并不是不定式标记to，而是介词to，要谨访介词to“冒充”不定式to。其他类似的词组还有be opposed to, object to, get used to等等。考试大 3.cleaningclearing。clean和clear这对
