　　答案及解析

　　1. 删去 much。“I can’t watch much television”意为“我不能看许多电视”， 上下文逻辑不通。much 属于多余。

　　2. 删去 was。由上文句意可知“我现在不看电视， 而过去每晚都看电视”， 因此应用 used to do。

　　3. watch 改为 watching。作句子主语需用动名词。

　　4. Unfortunate 改为 Unfortunately。此处应用副词作状语。

　　5. among 改为 in。“in my family”为习惯搭配， 意为“在我家中”。

　　6. the 改为 one。由下文的another可知， 上文用one。

　　7. am 改为 was。综观全文时态可知。

　　8. a lot 后加 of。

　　9. 此行无错。

　　10. someone 改为 everyone 或 everybody。someone 意为“某个人”； everyone/ everybody 意为“每个人”。根据上下文逻辑可知。
