5、 watching TV 10._答案与解析：1TV前面加a。TV set是可数名词的单数形式，TV前面要用不定冠词。2lives改为life。life意为“生活”时为不可数名词。3us后面加rm sb of sth为固定搭配，意为“通知告知某人某事”。4which改为that。定语从句先行词被最高级修饰，定语从句应由that引导。5正确。6But改为However。此处要求用副词，而But为连词。7his改为their。指代前面的people。8去掉they。定语从句已有主语who。9harmful改为harm。do后面要用名词。10healthy改为healh。此处要用名词。

8、与解析：1去掉第一个with。shared是及物动词。2a改为an。3your改为you。此处用代词的宾格。4much改为more。从后面的than可以看出这是一个比较级句型5正确。6去掉to。后面没有宾语，to是多余的。7ground前要加定冠词the.8fly改为flies。这里是一般现在时的第三人称单数形式。9too改为either。这是个否定句。10but改为and。因为这里没有转折的意思。(四)Most of us use salt every dayWe used it to make our 1_food taste better.

11、s a time when句型。4正确。5riches改为rich，the rich 表“富人”。 6去掉any，因为no应直接修饰名词。7when改为that，构成sothat结构。 8and改为or，表“或者”。 9an改为the，因为这里word表特指。10meant改为means，这里应用一般现在时。(五)Do you know Chaplin?
