参考答案及解析:
1. By -> In
“以….方式（方法）”应该用介词in与way搭配。
2．head -> mind
本题考查固定搭配keep in mind的用法，意思为“记住”。
3. by -> in; in -> on
In cooperation with意为“合作”；
4. Regardless 后加of；or -> and
Regardless of是介词短语，意为“不管…”；
与第二行的both对应，both…and…。
5. by -> in
in detail意为“详尽，详细”。
6. flatly -> flat
Fall flat是固定搭配，意为“达不到预期效果”。

8. make -> give
give rise to意为“引起，造成”，是固定搭配。
