答案详解：
1. 将 had used 改为 used。
因为此句是虚拟语气,表示与现在事实相反,故条件从句中应使用一般过去时。例如:
Many would be wise if they did not think themselves wise. 许多人原本会成为聪明人-如果他们不自以为聪明的话。
2. 将 publishing 改为 published
report和publish时逻辑动宾关系,故应使用publish的过去分词短语来修饰report。例如:
Any discovery that we may make, however small, will remain acquired knowledge. 任何可能的发现,不管多么微不足道,都将成为知识宝库中的一部分。
3. 将 theirs 改为 their 4. 将 among 改为 between
在两次怀孕期间留出足够的间隔时间,故用between。
5. 将过去分词 excluded 改为介词 excluding
excluding意为“不包括……”
6. 将 respectably 改为 respectively
respectively 意为 “分别地 ”，符合句子的意思。而respectably意为“可敬的，值得尊敬地 ”。
7. 将 evidences 改为 evidence
evidence是不可数名词。
8. 将ill改为illness
9. 将 year 改为 years
10. 将 lesser 改为 less
