Answer 1

3 as ...as...平行结构 固定搭配
11 逻辑错误
前者指出现挑战的原因 后者指挑战内容
10 你可以参考这个 http://zhidao.baidu.com/question/260805659.html
9 首先despite the fact of 本身是非常罗嗦的表达 一般不会正确
其次 他表达的意思也非常不明确 比如damage的主语就没有指出来
你严格翻译成中文就知道了 尽管损害的事实？
10首先这也是一个非常罗嗦的表达（SAT IS题中有too wordy这个错误的）
其次表达上也有问题……
比如able to是指有能力 谁没有睡觉的能力呢？
13前面是一个指明了的时间段 也没有过去的过去的意思 用一般过去时就好
其次SAT IE中对一般过去时是很宽容的
