<li><p>When Marie Curie shared the 1903 Nobel Prize for Physics with two other scientistsher husband Pierre Curie and Henri Becquerelshe had been the first woman to win the prize. </p></li>
</ol>
<p><em>For this one, I know that "had been" is wrong. Is it because it suggests that Marie Curie was the first woman to win the prize before she actually won? HOW CAN YOU FIX IT?</em></p>
<p>6) C. You want to make it clear that the PEOPLE on the Sea Islands emulated the lifestyles of their ancestors.
11) A. Weird structure but correct because their being interrelated might seem contradictory to their being different.
17) You’re right about why had been is wrong. You could say she became the first woman to win the prize: "When Marie Curie shared the 1903 Nobel Prize…she became the first woman to win the prize.</p>

<li><p>The young fish were very tiny, yet each of them ate many times its own weight in solid food every day. No Error</p></li>

<p>I thought that if “the young fish” (1) is plural, then “the tourist” (2) is plural too, then “who expect” isn’t wrong !! T_T</p>
<ol>
<li>fish is plural so were and them ate is fine. Its is okay since each indicates singular.</li>
<li>fish in number one has two plural forms: fish or fishes (both plural forms of a singular word, fish). And since tourist is singular, it should be expects. </li>
</ol>
<p>Although first I thought recommended had to go with not “to”, but with “for”</p>
<ol>
<li>over is not used to go with comparison. It is used with time as in over time. It is correct because of parrallelism; you cannot compare number of alligators with the Gila monsters (in order to this to be correct, it should be something like “number of alligators with the number of Gila monsters” )</li>
</ol>
<p>" A comparison over time of the numbers of alligators and Gila monsters shows that alligators are "
This is making a correct comparison between the “numbers of” alligators and Gila monsters
(This too, will be wrong if they just said number instead of numbers-“numbers” suggests that it is trying to say “number of alligators and number of Gila monsters”)</p>
<p>B is very clumsy. In C, whereas is used incorrectly. D indicates a that the subjects are different only when interrelated. E I’m pretty sure “although being interrelate” is grammatically incorrect. </p>
<p>“We are two smart, if disorganized, students” is standard syntax.</p>
