Answer 1

1去掉 the 。In ancient times,词组，在古代。不需要定冠词（这个古代或那个古代没得）

2正确

3desert 后加people。沙漠自己不会搬来搬去

4when改before，句意：沙漠里的人要在一个地区被破坏之前搬走。当地区破坏了再般已经晚了，和下面休养生息的机会也矛盾了

5去掉the， every other year 每隔一年，不需要定冠词（同1）

6as改that。so as to，没有so as （that）从句。为了是永不过度开垦土地

7because后加of，because+从句。because of+短语。多半由于现代化的技术

8at改along。这里表示沿着沙漠边缘一溜

9去掉up。

10 effort 后加to，目的状语从句。为了停止沙漠的扩展，现在全世界有努力
