【解析】

试题分析：通过阅读并修改此短文，考查学生对固定搭配，动词时态和语态，名词的单复数问题，以及复合宾语的辨别和运用。

1.取掉第一行writer前面的a。 考查冠词。Isaac Asimov是科学家兼作家， 一个人身兼二职时，第二名词前的冠词不用。

2.those → which 考查定语从句的关系词。 which代替前面的480种书，做介词among的宾语。

3.in → on 考查介词。1920年1月2日是具体某一天前面用介词on。

4.year → years 考查名词复数。 三岁，year一个用复数形式years。

5.works → worked 考查时态的一致性。全文都是过去式，这里应该保持一致。

6.mind后面加that 考查强调句式。 句意：是阿西莫夫超凡的想象力和令人惊叹的精神使他成为一个伟大的作家。

7.much → many 考查形容词。awards是复数名词，所以应该用many修饰。

8.books，后面的and → but 考查连词。前后是转折关系。虽然他的科幻小说和科普书都很畅销，但是不幸的是，他于1992年4月6日因感染了艾滋病而去世。

9.dead →died考查动词。这里用died作谓语。dead是形容词表状态不能独立做谓语，这里表动作用动词died。

10.early → earlier 考查固定用法。“九年前”英语是：nine years earlier。

考点：语篇理解以及语法知识。
