Answer 1

1. A
此题experience是及物动词，所以其后加的rain是不可数名词，而不是动词。
楼主对倍数句型不太明白：
倍数词(twice) + as + 形容词原级(much) + 名词(rain) + as ...
即形容词much是修饰名词rain的，不能把rain放到much前面去。
再如：I earn twice as much money as you. 我赚你两倍多的钱。

2. A
这里think of的宾语不是getting enough money，而是先行词the way；
而to get enough money是the way的后置定语，构成固定短语：the way to do sth = the way of doing sth “做某事的方法”。

3. B
paper-making是一个单词，意思是“造纸的”；而paper-made这个单词是没有的；
复合形容词不一定是按照所谓被动/主动关系来构成的。
比如：English-speaking“说英语的”。按照楼主的观点，English不也是被“speak”的，岂不是要改成English-spoken了？

Answer 2

1. A
本句experience是及物动词，rain这个不可数名词是experience的宾语。much是修饰rain的，意思的“多的”，当然放在rain的前面。
倍数句型的构成是这样的：倍数词(twice) + as + 形容词原级(much) + 名词(rain) + as ...。再如：I got twice as many books as you.
2. A
这里George thought of 乔治认为的，是作为the way的后置定语，to get enough money也是the way的后置定语；本句意思是：乔治认为的挣钱买房子的方法是什么？the way to do sth = the way of doing sth “做某事的方法”。

3. B
如果不清楚，就按照English-speaking“说英语的”来推导。
paper-making“造纸的” 。
