VIII. ERROR IDENTIFICATION

Identify 10 errors in the following passage and correct them.

Between 1977 and 1981, three groups of American women, numbered 27 in

all, between the age of 35 and 65, were given month-long tests to determine

how they would response to conditions resembling those on the space

shuttle. Carefully selected from among many applicants, the women were

volunteers and pay was barely above the minimum wage. They weren't

allowed to smoke or drink alcohol during the tests, and they were expected

to tolerate each other's company at closed quarters for the entire period.

Among other things, they had to stand pressure three times of the force of

gravity and carry out both physical and mental tasks while exhausted from

strenuous physical exercises. At the end often days, they had to spend a

further twenty days absolutely confined to bed, during that time they

suffered backaches and discomforts, and when they were finally allowed up,

the more physically active women were especially subject to pains due to a

light calcium loss. Results of the tests suggest that women have significant

advantages on men in space. They need less food and less oxygen and they

stand up to radiation well. Men's advantages in terms of strength and

stamina, meanwhile, are virtually wiped out by the zero-gravity condition in

space.
