看来牛人不少，我有几点疑问，敬请各位解答：
1. （b)为正确答案无可厚非，但是Repousse is method of sculpture in which workers lay copper sheets over wooden molds and then, using a variety of exotic hammers, carefully pound the metal into shape 中的which 指代sculpture,这里的sculpture应该为一个抽象名词：雕刻，而非雕刻品，那么 in which 岂不是讲不通？

5  （B)  A substance, which was recently discovered, from the licorice plant, 50 times sweeter than sucrose,      其中50 times sweeter than sucrose隔离修饰主语， 会不会造成修饰歧义，例如修饰了the licorice plant？

8 题的时态怎样确定？

9 题中（b) but rather its affirmation of                its 为it 的物主代词，但是与句子的主语it似乎不是指同一样东西，岂不矛盾？

10 题中（c) but which were in fact natural outgrowths of it 如果去掉but可以吗？
