答案： 1 將affect改為effect,affect是動詞。effect是名詞。
2 將suggests改為 suggesting,這是一個以while引導的從句，其中suggest應該與capturing並列。
3在fact後面加上that,因為引導同位語從句的關係詞不可以省略。
4 將their改為its,這裡its指代單數名詞caricature
5 將century改為複數形式
6 將was省略,appear是不及物動詞，不應用於被動語態。
7 將his改為their,這裡指代複數名詞 the caricaturists
8 將primary改為primarily,primarily在這裡做狀語，修飾不定式短語
9 將close改為比較級形式closer,從後面的'連詞than，可以看出，這裡使用了比較狀語從句
10 將amusing改為 amused,主語subject（受攻擊的人）和amuse的邏輯關係是動賓關係，應使用過去分詞形式。
