参考答案及解析:
1. first前加the
解析：表示“第几”时，在序数词前面要加上定冠词the。但是如果把名词paragraph，lesson等词放在基数词前则不需加定冠词，例如lesson one等

2. ultimate -> ultimately
修饰后面的句子要用副词。

3. acceptance -> rejection
根据上文的badly presented及下文的reject，可以发现意思是相反的。

4. end -> ending
avoid后面要用V-ing形式。类似的动词还有practise、resist、delay等，后面接的动词也要用ing形式。

5. upon -> for
reason应该与for搭配。

6. will后加not
本句意思是：让别人帮你检查拼写和语法错误，因为拼写检查器不会检查出每一个错误。

7. listing -> list
这里的list与restrict是并列的，是祈使句，所以要用动词原形。

8. up -> /
Keep up表示“坚持、维持”；keep表示“保持”，可以在后面加上宾语及其补足语。

9. taking -> taken
在此担当的是定语，该动词修饰前面的one (photo)，而one与该动词应该是被动关系，the photo is taken.

10. find -> found
