　　参考答案及解析:

　　1. 将which改为that。先行词由最高修饰时定语从句的关系代词只能用that。

　　2. 在thought 后面加of，或者将thought 改为regarded。“think of A as B”，指“把A看作B”，为固定搭配。

　　3. 去掉he。这句话的主语是“to hunt a whale”，“to hunt a whale was high adventure”。中间的“when…”只是插入的状语从句。

　　4. 在referred后加to。“refer to A as B”只“把A称作B”，这句话的意思是“古人把鲸称作大鱼”。

　　5. 在felt 后加for。这句话实际的结构是“feel a sense of wonder for whales”指“对鲸怀有惊奇的感觉”，for引出对象。

　　6. 在exploit后加them。capture，slaughter，exploit都是及物动词，后面必须加宾语。

　　7. 去掉but。前面已有“even though”，后面就不应该再用but。

　　8 .将since改为from。“100 years from now”指“从现在起100年后”since 只能用于完成时。

　　9. 在blame前加to。“be to blame for sth ”指“对某事应负责任”，为固定搭配。

　　10. 在always前加has。这个定语从句强调对现在的影响，很明显应该用完成时，不能用过去式。
