答案及解析:
1.is--are
the加上形容词一类人的时候后面应用动词的复数形式，如：The old receive particular respect in Chinese society.
2.large-largely
这里large是修饰fullfilled的，所以应改为largely，表示“大部分地”，如：The fundis largely financed through government borrowing.
3.the(age)--/
动词词组come of age表示“已成年”，中间不用任何冠词，所以它一旦变为-ing形式仍然保持原样。另外要避免将原句误读成The coming of ,the age of the postwar baby boom,这样断句意思解释不通。
4.has--have
有两个原因限制了青少年进好的学校找到好的工作，这两个原因由and连接作并列主语，所以谓语动词应该用复数。
5.involved^--in
involved后面少了in，表示“关于，涉及到”，如All the children were involved in the school play.
6.^Japanese--of
当percent做名词时，它后面应加上介词of，如：
The report states that 42 percent of the alunmi contributed to the endowment.
当percent作形容词或者副词时，则不加of。如：
There has been a ten percent increase in the number of new students arriving at polytechnic this year.
7.^countries--other
从上句话中可知道Japan也参与了这次普查，因此在这句话里的比较结构中Japan应和其他10个同意参加普查的国家进行比较，所以应注明是10 other countries。
8.mechanic--mechanical
mechanic是名词，表示“制造工，技工”，所以这里应把它改为mechanical表示“机械的”。
9.eyebrow--eyebrows
toraise one's eyebrow 表示“(某事)引起(某人)的惊讶或不赞同”，如：
He raised his eyebrows over some of the suggestions.
10.of--for
respect 后面通常跟for接人，表示“对(某人)的尊重”，如：respect for the old。
