Answer 1

答案：
解析：

1．is－are　　因主语是ideas。 　　2．people后加who　　在定语从句中作主语的关系代词不能省略。 　　3．去掉the　　go back to school表示“回校上学”是固定的短语，强调动作。如果表示到学校去，在school前应加定冠词the。 　　4．where－which或that　　此处关联词在定语从句中作主语，而where在从句中作状语。 　　5．few－fewer　　用比较级表示“较少的”。 　　6．√ 　　7．paid－pay　　根据上下文，此处应用现在时态。 　　8．retired－retire此处retire和stop是并列成份，所以应用原形。 　　9．在do前加can　　so that引导目的状语从句，从句中需用can，could，might等情态动词。 　　10．在good前加a idea是可数名词，表示单数其前应加不定冠词。
