1. Crather than 表示对比，在意思上前后形成对照：take advantage of your generosity…rather than become appreciative of your kindness意为“利用你的慷慨，而不是理解你的好意”。另外，rather than在结构上起并列作用，使take advantage与become appreciative平行。

7. C分词短语做伴随状语，形容词open在分词短语中做补语，表示状态，不用过去分词，所以D不正确。

10. A句中too late相当于too late to catch the train，所以选其他词不合适。
