　　Explanation:

 

　　1.Correct Answer: A

 

　　No error.

 

　　2.Correct Answer: C

 

　　Both which and this should refer to a specific noun. Since the fist part of the sentence does not provide a suitable noun, we must introduce a word such as increase or trend. D is incorrect as it uses a comma to link two sentences.

 

　　3.Correct Answer: E

 

　　The subject the clauses requires a plural verb; change lies to lie. Similarly, make is required to agree with clauses.

 

　　4.Correct Answer: A

 

　　"Whether" is correct because the question concerns a choice not a condition. With the expression "the number of" a singular verb is needed and hence "was" is correct. "Liable" is used in expressions such as "liable to prosecution" and not for expressions of possibility.

 

　　5.Correct Answer: D

 

　　The conditional clause (the “if” clause) does not require would. Also we should write “in the garden” to be parallel to “in the greenhouse”.

 

　　6.Correct Answer: A

 

　　Choice (A) is correct. It avoids the errors of the other options by using the idiomatic “distinction of being” to express what the play “won for its author Lorraine Hansberry.”

 

　　7.Correct Answer: A

 

　　The construction not so much as... as is correct.

 

　　8.Correct Answer: E

 

　　Choice (E) is correct. It avoids the error of the original by directly comparing one type of guitar (“an acoustic guitar”) to another (“the solid-body electric guitar”).
