答案解析
1.[d]【解析】the material of inheritance为名词词组，作同位语，解释限定主语。
2.[c]【解析】副词often须紧跟在系动词is之后，形容词最高级必须在名词hazard之前。
3.[d]【解析】在that引导的定语从句中，逻辑主语是the proportion of the population,谓语动词应用主动形式。用将来时表示对将来的推测。
4.[a]【解析】比较级中所比较的两个事物是对等的平行关系，应保持语法上的一致和语义上的对等。than后完整的形式应该是than sound waves travel，为了简练，用do代替travel。
5.[c]【解析】be worth(doing) something意为“值得某物，值得做某事”，相当于be worthy of。
