【分析】
本题考查名词的复数形式及there be句型的主谓一致。解题思路：1. 区分不同类型名词的复数变化规则，包括单复数同形的国籍名词、规则变化的可数名词、不规则变化的可数名词；2. 牢记不可数名词的用法，以及there be句型遵循就近原则的特点，结合题干语境填写正确形式。
【解析】
1. 表示国籍的名词中，Chinese、Japanese单复数同形，American的复数为Americans，故依次填Chinese、Japanese、Americans；
2. how many后接可数名词复数，factory以辅音字母+y结尾，变复数需改y为i加es，故填factories；
3. some后接可数名词复数，potato是有生命的以o结尾的名词，复数加es，故填potatoes；
4. bread是不可数名词，there be句型遵循就近原则，be动词用单数is，bread用原形，故填is、bread；
5. mouse的复数为不规则变化mice，故填mice。
【答案】
1. Chinese; Japanese; Americans 2. factories 3. potatoes 4. is; bread 5. mice

【分析】本题考查there be句型的相关句式变化，解题时需掌握：1. 单数句改复数句时，there be的be动词随主语单复数变化，单数名词需变为复数；2. there be否定句在be动词后加not，且否定句中some要改为any；3. there be一般疑问句需将be动词提前，同时some改为any；4. 对可数名词数量提问用How many，对不可数名词数量提问用How much。
【解析】1. 原句为单数句，改为复数句时，be动词is变为复数are，单数名词bus的复数形式是buses，故填are; buses；2. there be句型变否定句，在are后加not（缩写为aren’t），否定句中some改为any，故填aren’t any；3. there be句型变一般疑问句，将be动词are提前，同时some改为any，故填Are there any；4. 画线部分是可数名词pencils的数量，对可数名词数量提问用How many，故填How many；5. 画线部分是不可数名词water的数量，对不可数名词数量提问用How much，故填How much。
【答案】1. are; buses 2. aren’t any 3. Are there any 4. How many 5. How much
