1. lie改为lies 。 这是一倒装句, 该句的主语是Washington D.C.。2. in改为to。Washington D. C. 不在New York City 所属范围内。3. ways改为way。主语为单数,从下一行is 可看出。4. spends 改为 costs, 主语为物,作\"花费\"解。5. city 前加上 a。city 为单数。6. 去掉 been 。句中grow up 的意思是成长,无被动式。7. for 改为 as。是将Washington D.C. 作为首府。 8. named 后加上 after。从后半句看,此句的意思是\"以......命名\",而非\"名叫......\"。9. 此行无错。10. 在which 前或stands后加 for。
