　　[答案与解析]

　　(I) 1. America→American。此处应该用形容词作定语。

　　2. very→more。根据than可知,此处是形容词的比较级。

　　3. as后加in。这里是in Australia和in the USA两个介词短语的比较。

　　4. beach→beaches。由句意可知,此处应该用复数名词beaches。

　　5. has→have。本句的主语是parts,故谓语动词应该用复数形式。

　　6. 去掉第一个in。anywhere本身即副词,故去掉介词in。

　　7. 本行无错。

　　8. like→as。the same as是固定词组。

　　9. talk→speak。表示讲某种语言时,动词用speak。

　　10. so→but。此处表示转折关系,而非因果关系。

　　(II) 1. truly→true。应该用形容词作表语。

　　2. scientist→scientists。根据本句谓语动词show可知,本句主语应该用复数名词。

　　3. 去掉第三个will。在条件状语从句中,用一般现在时态表示将来。

　　4. clearly→clear。clear和energetic是两个并列的形容词作宾语补足语。

　　5. use→using。此处是动名词短语作主语。

　　6. 在第二个peaceful前加a。代词one前面有形容词修饰时,在形容词前常用不定冠词。

　　7. that→which。紧接在介词后面的关系代词用which。

　　8. do→doing。taking和doing是两个并列的动名词短语作表语。

　　9. 本行无错。

　　10. hope→wish。wish后面可以接复合宾语,而hope不可以。
