　　答案：
　　1. Because of advances in the medical technology, heart surgery is not as dangerous as it formerly was (像以前那么危险)。
　　(本题考查同级比较短as…as, 第二个as后可用短语也可以用从句，此句要用一个从句)
　　2. The heroic fighter would rather die with his head high than live with his knees bent (也不愿跪着求生)。
　　(本题考查“宁愿…也不愿…”的表达方式would rather…than…, 跪着求生是live with his knees bent)
　　3. Only one week later, Mr. Smith came to realize either I or he was wrong (不是我就是他错了)。
　　(本题考查短语“不是…就是…”的表达方法either…or…，另外注意谓语形式的就近原则)
　　4. When the World War Two was over, Britain sets free most of war prisoners (释放了大部分的战俘)。
　　(本题考查是短语“释放”的表达方式set free)
　　5. When I refused to move my car, he flew into a rage (勃然大怒) and threatened to call the police.
　　(本题考查短语“勃然大怒” fly into a rage)
