part 1
Artists use caricature to distort the human face or figure for comic affect, __1__while at the same time capturing an identifiable likeness and suggests the essence __2__of the personality or character beneath the surface. The humor lies in the fact __3__the caricature is recognizable, and yet exaggerated.
From their origin in Europe as witty sketches, caricature grew through __4__the eighteenth and nineteenth century, becoming enormously popular in __5__the United States early in this century. In 1920s and 1930s especially,
this lively form of illustration was appeared in newspapers and __6__magazines throughout the country. The caricaturists in this era drew his __7__portraits of important figures primary to entertain. In spirit their work was __8__close to the humor of the fast-developing comic strip and gag cartoon than to the __9__string of political satire. Their subjects were more often amusing than offended __10__by amiable attacks.
答案：
1 将affect改为effect,affect是动词。effect是名词。
2 将suggests改为 suggesting,这是一个以while引导的从句，其中suggest应该与capturing并列。
3在fact后面加上that,因为引导同位语从句的关系词不可以省略。
4 将their改为its,这里its指代单数名词caricature
5 将century改为复数形式
6 将was省略,appear是不及物动词，不应用于被动语态。
7 将his改为their,这里指代复数名词 the caricaturists
8 将primary改为primarily,primarily在这里做状语，修饰不定式短语
9 将close改为比较级形式closer,从后面的连词than，可以看出，这里使用了比较状语从句
10 将amusing改为 amused,主语subject(受攻击的人)和amuse的逻辑关系是动宾关系，应使用过去分词形式。
part 2
Most people would describe water like a colorless liquid. They __1__would know that in very cold conditions it becomes a solid called ice and that when heating on a fire it becomes a vapor called steam. __2__However, water, they would say, is a liquid. We have learned that water consists of molecules composed with two atoms of hydrogen __3__and one atom of oxygen, which we describe by the formula H2O.
This is equally true of the solid called ice and the gas called steam.Chemically there is no difference between the gas, the liquid, and the solid, all of which is made up of molecules with the formula H2O. __4__This is true of other chemical substances; most of them can exist as gases or as liquids or as solids. We may normally think of iron as a solid, but if we will heat it in a furnace, it will melt and become a __5__liquid, and at very high temperatures it will become a gas. Nothing
very permanent occurs when a gas changes into a liquid or a solid.Everyone knows that ice, which has been made by freezing water,can be melted again by warmed and that steam can be condensed __6__on a cold surface to become liquid water. In fact, it is only because water is so a familiar substance that different names are used for __7__the solid, liquid and gas. Most substances are only familiar with __8__us in one state, because the temperatures requiring to turn them __9__into gases are very high, or the temperatures necessary to turn them into solids are so low. Water is an exception in this respect, which is another reason why its three states have given three different names. __10__
答案：
1 改like为as.describe sth as sth 是把……描述成……的意思。
2 改heating为heated.在时间，条件，让步等状语从句中，当从句主语和主句主语是一致的时候，可以将从句的主语和be的变化形式省略。
3 改with为of.be composed of 意思为“包括，由……组成”
4 改is made up 为 are made up.which 指代上文中的 the gas， the liquid，and the solid，表示复数概念，所以要用are
5 将第一个will去掉,在时间条件状语从句和条件状语从句中要用现在时表示将来时。
6 by改为when.when warm 相当于 when it is warmed
7 改so为such.
8改with为to.短语familiar to 后面才能接“某人” familiar with 是接sth
9改requiring为required.过去分词短语作后置定语时，和被修饰的名词时逻辑动宾关系。
10 have 后加 been.动词give和主语three states 是动宾关系
