[语篇解读] 本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了大英博物馆的位置、藏品、入场、价值等。
1.located [考查非谓语动词。句意:大英博物馆位于伦敦布鲁姆斯伯里地区,是第一个国家公共博物馆,人们可以在这里看到其约800万件古代文物的永久收藏,使其成为现存最大的博物馆之一。be located in意为“坐落于”,是固定搭配。分析句子可知,空处应用过去分词,作后置定语。故填located。]
2.where [考查定语从句。句意参考上题。分析句子结构,空处引导一个非限制性定语从句,指代先行词the first national public museum,且在从句中作地点状语,所以应用关系副词where。故填where。]
3.making [考查非谓语动词。句意参考第1题。分析句子结构,空处应用非谓语动词。此处表示一种自然而然的结果,所以应用现在分词,作结果状语。故填making。]
4.influential [考查形容词。句意:它还包含了许多从过去到现在有影响力的艺术家创作的艺术作品。空处应用形容词,作定语修饰artists。influential意为“有影响力的”。故填influential。]
5.admission [考查名词。句意:作为最受欢迎的国家博物馆之一,它不收取门票费用。空处应用名词,作定语修饰fee。admission意为“入场费”,admission fee表示“入场费,门票费用”。故填admission。]
6.to gain [考查非谓语动词。句意:这就是进入博物馆通常需要很长时间的原因。这里是it takes/took some time to do sth.句型,表示“做某事需要……时间”,it作形式主语,不定式作真正主语。故填to gain。]
7.on [考查介词。句意:看着展出的从历史到艺术的物品,人们会看到过去的面貌。on display表示“陈列,展出”,为固定搭配。故填on。]
8.is brought [考查时态、语态和主谓一致。句意:历史变得生动有趣。根据上下文时态可知,这里陈述的是一般事实,应用一般现在时。bring sth.to life意为“使更有趣,使更生动”,为固定搭配,这里History和bring之间是动宾关系,应用被动语态,且主语为不可数名词,be动词用is。故填is brought。]
9.precisely [考查副词。句意:由于所有展品都准确地记录了人类发展的轨迹,因此绝对值得我们关注和参观。空处应用副词,修饰动词document。precisely意为“准确地,精确地”,故填precisely。]
10.worthy [考查形容词。句意参考上题。根据空前的absolutely和is可知,空处应用形容词作表语。worthy意为“值得(或应得)…… 的”。be worthy of表示“值得……”。故填worthy。]
