\(=\dfrac{\sqrt{1}+\sqrt{2}}{\left(\sqrt{1}+\sqrt{2}\right)\left(\sqrt{1}-\sqrt{2}\right)}-\dfrac{\sqrt{2}+\sqrt{3}}{\left(\sqrt{2}+\sqrt{3}\right)\left(\sqrt{2}-\sqrt{3}\right)}+\dfrac{\sqrt{3}+\sqrt{4}}{\left(\sqrt{3}+\sqrt{4}\right)\left(\sqrt{3}-\sqrt{4}\right)}-...+\dfrac{\sqrt{2017}+\sqrt{2018}}{\left(\sqrt{2017}+\sqrt{2018}\right)\left(\sqrt{2017}-\sqrt{2018}\right)}\)
\(=\dfrac{\sqrt{1}+\sqrt{2}}{1-2}-\dfrac{\sqrt{2}+\sqrt{3}}{2-3}+\dfrac{\sqrt{3}+\sqrt{4}}{3-4}-...+\dfrac{\sqrt{2017}+\sqrt{2018}}{2017-2018}\)
\(=-\left(\sqrt{1}+\sqrt{2}\right)+\sqrt{2}+\sqrt{3}-\left(\sqrt{3}+\sqrt{4}\right)+...-\left(\sqrt{2017}+\sqrt{2018}\right)\)
\(=-\sqrt{1}-\sqrt{2}+\sqrt{2}+\sqrt{3}-\sqrt{3}-\sqrt{4}+...-\sqrt{2017}-\sqrt{2018}\)
\(=-\sqrt{1}-\sqrt{2018}\)
