答案：
1 strucked改为struck或者stricken。过去分词形式有误。strike的过去式是struck，过去分词为struck或者stricken。
2 date改为dated或者outdated，
3 on other hand 改为 on the other hand
4 entire改为entirely，副词修饰形容词different，并与different一起修饰age。
5 minority改为majority。 从上下文以及常识判断，多半男性成功地抵制了改变他们服装款式的企图，即多年来，男性大服装款式跟女性服饰相比没有多大的变化。
6 it改为them，them指代the great majority of men。
7 fewer改为few，此处没有比较的`意味。
8去掉on。lay down为习语，表示“规定(规则，原则，法规等)”。
9 sometime改为 sometimes。
10 height改为high。形容词作be 的表语。
