答案：
1.^which－in 此处的介词其实是和live连用的，live in the environment。
2.deal^－with。deal with是固定搭配，意思是“解决，处理”。
3.make^－way。根据上下文可以断定此处文章要说的是“人们烧，伐树木为的是给开垦农田让路。”make way for something。是“给……让路”，符合此处需要的意思。
4.spread－polluted/littered。这里的关键是要知道debris的意思是“碎片，残骸等”，所以根据上下文这里的意思是“湖泊和湿地被一些碎片残骸所污染或弄得凌乱不堪”才符合逻辑。
5.^Abundan－the。此处不是泛指，而是特指，所以要有定冠词。
6.as－like。此处是拿中国举例，所以要用介词like“像……一样”。
7.cause－causing。此处定于分句是主动的意义。
8.variant改为various。variant是“变体的，变种的”，而various表示“不同的”，符合此处意思。
9.get^of－rid。固定搭配get rid of 是“摆脱”的意思。
10.rise－arise
