【解析】

1.考查主谓一致。句意：这座大雕塑长约12英尺乘36英尺。此句用一般现在时，主语The big sculpture是单数，谓语也要是单数。故将measure改为measures。

2.考查固定搭配。句意：我们应该尊敬老人。have respect for sb.，意为“尊敬某人”，是一个固定搭配。故将to改为for。

3.考查固定搭配。句意：每个人在面对挑战时都需要帮助。be faced with sth.，意为“面对某事”，是一个固定搭配；但是从句的主语和主句的主语一致（都是Everyone），且从句的谓语“be faced with sth.”中包含be动词的某种形式，可以省略从句主语和be动词，所以此句变成了when faced with challenges。故将facing改为faced。

4.考查动词不定式。句意：建议别人很容易，接受别人建议很难。分析句子可知，此句包含It’s + 形容词+ for sb.+ to do sth.结构，这里的to do 是句子的真正主语，to后面应该加动词原形，应用advice。故将advices改为advice。

5.考查时态。句意：他埋葬好朋友后感到孤独。分析句子可知，主句谓语动词felt为一般过去时，所以从句谓语动词bury也应用一般过去时。故将bury改为buried。

6.考查比较级。句意：夏天武汉比北京热得多。than是比较级的标志，意为“比起”，所以hot要用比较级。故将hot改为hotter。

7.考查固定搭配。句意：还不确定这种药会带来什么样的副作用。side effect，意为“副作用”，是一个固定搭配。故将affect改为effect。

8.考查时态。句意：飓风结束时有多少建筑物被毁？分析句子可知，从句谓语动词end用的是一般过去时，主句谓语动词destroy发生在从句谓语动词end之前，即“过去的过去”，所以destroy应用过去完成时had done。故将have been改为had been。

9.考查固定搭配。句意：我不得不担心起来。can’t help but do，意为“不得不”，是一个固定搭配。故去掉to。

10.考查被动语态。句意：他说：“被困在沙尘暴里是一次可怕的经历。”分析句子可知，catch和a sandstorm之间是被动关系，要用被动语态be done形式，所以要加上系动词been。故have后添加been。
