1.D，根据its可知主语是单数名词，排除AE。Were it not要不是…，不需要instead转折，排除B。would have to be collapsing没有这样的说法，排除C。
2.A，补完整比较应该是than (babies were born to women) under it. （it指the age of thirty）。Had been的时态不对，直接排除DE。B中的born表示的意思是babies出生小于30岁，意思完全不对了，排除。C中they指代不清，排除。
3.C，搞清楚比较的对象是：法国生产的能源中核电占了75% vs. 德国生产的能源中核电占了xx%。只有C的表述最清晰、无歧义。A的it指代不清，B不能把energy和Germany做对比，D改变了原文的意思，原文对比的只是“在本国生产的engegy”，这句的意思变成了占全国使用的energy的xx%（本国+购买？），E的it指代the energy。
4.B，注意intensify的是预期expectations，所以7-9月double增长只是一个猜测，用虚拟语气。
5.A，because + clause，because of + noun。Capability不能用来描述一个没有生命的呼吸系统，排除B。Especially强调严重性，specially强调特殊性。
6.C，A中so是并列连词，连接两个独立的分句，但是明显前后两句是有因果关系的。并且so it would be中的it指代有歧义，逻辑上应指代the company，但句意上指代的确是committee，排除A。
7.C，as的比较结构，需要结构一致。前半句是倒装结构，Halley’s comet did cause such a worldwide sensation in no other historical sighting as in its return in 1910-1911.
E.and that, if it strikes Earth, it could experience a tremendous amount of damage but
8.C，that…, and that…平行。行星撞地球只是一个假设，只能用虚拟语态if it were to。
9. A，大平行：Minivan carry and [cost less, get, allow, and have] (carry和整个后半句平行)，小平行：后半句里面的cost, get, allow, and have.
10.A，根据未划线部分的it可知后半句的主语只能是单数的coin。只有A符合。

A.while in Germany it is just over 33 percent【it指代法国生产的能量，错误；应该仅指energy】【在比较成分 前后都是句子的情况下，前面分句是主谓宾结构表达动作，后面分句是主系表结构 zellt表达状态，功能上不平行，错误】

A.an especially serious pollutant because it diminishes the respiratory system's ability to deal【正确】【sth’s ability可用在无生命主体:】
B.an especially serious pollutant because of diminishing the respiratory system's capability of dealing【because of diminishing】【capability to do；GMAT认为capability of X-ing/in X-ing是wordy/awkward的】
C.an especially serious pollutant because it diminishes the capability of the respiratory system in dealing【in dealing好像没有这个搭配，且较A繁琐？】【in dealing有做状语修饰整个从句的歧义，含义变为Sulfur dioxide在dealing with的 时候减少了respiratory system的能力，而不是原义想要表达的，减少了respiratory system的deal with…的能力；capability如果后面要加in doing,最好紧跟capability， 避免歧义】
D.a specially serious pollutant because it diminishes the capability of the respiratory system to deal【specially错误】【of the respiratory system的插入，导致to deal可以修饰动词diminish，歧义】
E.a specially serious pollutant because of diminishing the respiratory system's ability to deal【specially错误】

A.In Japan, a government advisory committee called for the breakup of Nippon Telephone and Telegraph Company, the largest telephone company in the world, so it would be【it代指breakup，解体是公司，错误】【“   so”用作并列连词，连接两个独立的分句。但是，句子的后半部分显然依赖于前 半部分，所以这种类型的连词是不合适的。so it would be里的it指代歧义，本身应 指代the largest telephone company，但是这里指代了主语a government advisory committee，错误】
B.The breakup of the world's largest telephone company, Nippon Telephone and Telegraph Company, was called for by a government advisory committee in Japan, so it would be【it代指breakup，解体是公司】
C.A government advisory committee in Japan called for the breakup of Nippon Telephone and Telegraph Company, the world's largest telephone company, into【正确】

A.and, if it strikes Earth, it can do tremendous damage to part of the planet but【it多余】【strikes用了现在时，没有体现出假设的语气，同样can也不对，it并没有发生，所以 只能could】

C.and that, if it were to strike Earth, could do tremendous damage to part of the planet but would【正确】
