答案及解析:
1. as ->. that
此处是so…that…结构。....so distressed......that she left.....

2. slums前加the
slums后有of Chicago作后置定语，所以定冠词the 不能省略。

3. that ->. /
that作引导词时，后面接的是句子，在本题中that后面是短语for factory workers，所以不用that。

4. well后加as

5. passive ->. active
passive意为“消极的，被动的”。从文中可知Jane Adams是一位热心服务的人，因此她应该是积极的而不是消极地为人权而战。所以要把passive改为active“积极的”。

6. work –>. worked
根据整篇文章的时态可知，此处应该是过去时。

7. to ->. on
have an influence / effect / impact on为固定搭配，意为“对…的影响”。

8. was ->. were
此处的主语是Settlement houses，所以谓语动词要用复数形式。

9. rewarded ->. awarded
reward意为“报答，酬谢，奖励”；award意为“授予，给予”。此处的意思应该是Jane Adams被授予诺贝尔奖，所以要用award。

10. which ->. what
此处what引导名词性从句作done的宾语，整个名词性从句what she had done for the society作介词for的宾语。
