　　参考答案及解析:

　　1. refer后加to

　　固定搭配refer to…as…，意为“把……称作……”。

　　2. that - /

　　Because表示原因后接从句时不需加that。

　　3. unabundant -abundant

　　根据上文已经说了中秋节也被认为是丰收节，所以食物应该是很丰富的，故将unabundant改为abundant。

　　4. relax -relaxation

　　relax是动词，此处需要名词作for的宾语，所以将relax改成相应的名词relaxation。

　　5. appears -appear

　　这句话是倒装句，真正的主语是后面的some special customs，所以谓语动词要用复数形式。

　　6. and - but

　　7. relative - relatives

　　8. resembles - resemble

　　这句话的主语是the round moon cakes，所以将谓语动词resembles改为resemble。

　　9. hundreds后加of

　　固定搭配hundreds of“成百上千的”。

　　10. cakes后加which或that

　　这句话出现了compare和are served两个谓语，根据句子的意思compare才是真正的谓语，而are served….则应该是修饰cakes的定语从句，又因为从句缺少主语，所以加上that或which。
