　　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，而且上下文對應的均使用了復數(shù)形式，所以應該把object改為復數(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)了兩個謂語動詞，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，缺少了引導詞，所以應該加上who或that。

　　6. unfamiliar -> familiar

　　根據(jù)常識，“文化人”應該是“熟悉藝術、音樂…”的人，因此把否定改為肯定。

　　7. of -> /

　　表示原因時，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，又因為先行詞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
