參考答案及解析:
1. include -> including
2. compose -> composed / comprised
此出的意思是“由…組成”，固定搭配有be composed / comprised of，be made up of，consist of。
3. object -> objects
Object是可是名詞，一般說來可數(shù)名詞以單數(shù)形式出現(xiàn)時(shí)要有不定代詞或冠詞修飾，而在此沒有任何冠詞，而且上下文對(duì)應(yīng)的均使用了復(fù)數(shù)形式，所以應(yīng)該把object改為復(fù)數(shù)。
4. or -> and
此處是固定搭配both…and…。
5. individual后加who / that
這句話出現(xiàn)了兩個(gè)謂語動(dòng)詞，在英語中不符合語法規(guī)范。從上下文可以看出individual后面的部分是修飾individual的定語從句，缺少了引導(dǎo)詞，所以應(yīng)該加上who或that。
6. unfamiliar -> familiar
根據(jù)常識(shí)，“文化人”應(yīng)該是“熟悉藝術(shù)、音樂…”的人，因此把否定改為肯定。
7. of -> /
表示原因時(shí)，because后跟從句，because of后跟名詞性質(zhì)的詞或詞組。此處是從句，所以把of去掉。
8. essentially -> essential
be后面的表語不能用副詞。
9. laugh -> laughs
此處的smile和laugh是并列成分，作定語從句修飾person，又因?yàn)橄刃性~person是單數(shù)，所以從句的謂語也要用單數(shù)。
10. by -> with
此處是固定搭配supply sb with sth
