參考答案及解析：
1.把saving改為savings
saving表示“節(jié)約的”，和其復數形式savings意義不同。savings的意思是“存款，儲蓄”。
2.在small前面加上a
a small amount of 表示“少量的”，冠詞不可缺。
3.把what改為which或者that
amount在此是先行詞，后面是一個定語從句，這個從句顯然應該由關系代詞that或者which引導。
4.在hold前面加who
先行詞people后面是一個定語從句，因此需要有引導詞。
5.在which前面加上at
關系代詞which在此引導的同樣是一個定語從句，并且在此應該用“介詞＋關系代詞”這個形式，因為前面的rate往往用于短語at a rate，此處的介詞可以提前。
6.把facial改為face
票面價值應是：face value。
7.把Therefore改為However。
此處根據上下文來看，表達的是轉折的含義，而不是因果關系。
8.把hard改為harder
這里存在一個隱含的比較，所以應該用hard的比較級形式。
9.刪除more，或者把more改為much
riskier本身已經是比較形式了，再加上more是多余的'。把more改為much，表示一種程度也可以。
10.把we改為you
補充：
第二題將amount改為amounts也是正確的
第四題把hold改為holding也是正確的
a small amount of 和small amounts of 用法的區(qū)別：
a large（great，good）amount of ＋不可數名詞，謂語動詞一般用單數；但（large，great，good）amounts of ＋ 不可數名詞，作主語時，謂語動詞要用復數。
A large amount of damage ＜has been＞done by the earth quake．
Large amounts of money ＜were＞spent on the bridge．
這就是為什么第二題也可以把amount改為amounts而第八題不用改amount的原因啦。
