Question 1

名＋をはじめ（として）
名+をはじめとする＋名

Answer 1

Not just a representative example, but others like it are there

Question 2

- this is usually a negative sentence (negative judgement, etc)

Question 3

名＋にわたって
名＋にわたる＋名

Answer 3

from the whole scope, the same situation or circumstance spreads or is affected.
- noun is place, time, number, range (usually big)

Question 4

名+を通じて・通して

Answer 4

two meanings:
1) through a whole period, the same condition or situation happens throughout
-relatively long period
2) through the means of ~, something is done
- not a direct or concrete means

Question 5

名の・動辞書形/ている形　＋限り

Answer 5

based on a certain extent, something is done or is a certain state or condition
- when attached to a verb, progressive or potential verbs are common

Question 6

動辞書形＋だけ

Answer 6

only as much as (possible)
- potential verbs are many

- ~たい・ほしい・好きな・必要な are also used with it

Question 7

名＋に限らず

is not limited to ~, but includes a wider range
after is a bigger or wider range than the example
ほかにも、も　are common after

Question 8

名・ナ形/名である・普通形＋のみならず

Answer 8

not just ~, but something(s) else
硬い言い方
different from ～に限らず in that the latter half can be the same level as the example
ほかにも、も　are common after

Question 9

名・ナ形な/である・名である・普通形＋ばかりか

Answer 9

even though something is sufficient to make a judgement, something else is added
- former is already not normal, but the next part is also unexpected, so it’s added.
informational sentence, not initiative-driven
ほかにも、も　are common after

Answer 10

the first part is only natural (of course!), but something else is added as an example
