King George III, who famously talked with a tree he had
mistaken the King of Prussia. __5__
These days Britain’s Prince of Wales is still considered a tad
eccentric. But increasingly, Charles Philip Windsor is winning applause

the Prince has been in the forefront to promote kinder, gentler
farming methods; protect Britain’s countryside urban sprawl; improve __8__
city landscapes; and safeguard the nation’s architectural
heritage. And whereas his once a lonely if plumy voice crying in __9__
the wilderness, the Prince has seen many of his once maverick
opinions became mainstream. __10__
答案:
1.confided 后面加to
向某人透露……，应该用confide to sb
2.loved改为 beloved
loved只能用于被动语态，表示动作。不论是做表语还是定语，都只能用beloved。
3.surrounding改为surroundings
“surrounding” 是形容词，意思是“周围的.”，当它做名词是，意思是“环境”，只能用surroundings。
4.将and改为who/that
这是一个强调句型，意思是“那个守旧的王子落伍了”。
5.在mistaken后面加上for
“把……误以为……”应该用mistake…for…。这句话的意思是：他把那棵树当作普鲁士的国王了。
6.that改为what
在这里what做代词，引导宾语从句，做combat的宾语。
7.将with改为in
In the name of 以为“以……名义”，为固定搭配。这里意思是：以进步为名义恣意的破坏。
8.在urban前加from
Protect …from…为固定搭配，指的是“保护……不受……的侵害”
9.once 前加 was
这里“his” 代表“his voice”，很明显这里缺少谓语动词。这里指“虽然他的声音曾经在荒野里哭喊，但是却无人聆听”。
10.将became改为become
See…do sth 为固定搭配
