语篇解读 本文是一篇议论文。文章主要论述了太空技术的发展能够极大地推动人类社会的进步。
1.答案 distance
解析 考查名词。根据空前的冠词the可知,所填词为名词,作介词in的宾语。distant的名词为distance,构成固定短语in the distance (在远处)。故填distance。
2.答案 more
解析 考查比较级。根据空后的than可知,此处应用many的比较级more。故填more。
3.答案 adapted
解析 考查非谓语动词。分析该句成分可知,句中已有谓语have helped,adapt应用非谓语动词形式,所填词在此处作后置定语,修饰technologies,且adapt 与technologies之间为逻辑上的动宾关系,故用过去分词adapted表被动。故填adapted。
4.答案 which
解析 考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知,空处引导的是一个非限制性定语从句;先行词为emissions,指物,且关系词在定语从句中作主语,所以用关系代词which引导该从句。故填which。
5.答案 was created
解析 考查动词的时态、语态和主谓一致。分析句子可知,空处为句子的谓语,由时间状语in the 1950s可知,该句陈述的是过去发生的事,故用所给动词的一般过去时,且It与create之间为逻辑上的动宾关系,故此处用所给动词的被动语态,主语it为单数,be动词用was。故填was created。
6.答案 to replace
解析 考查非谓语动词。分析该句成分可知,已有谓语has been used,replace应用非谓语动词形式,结合句意可知此处表示“为了,以”,所以用所给动词的不定式,作目的状语。故填to replace。
7.答案 from/against
解析 考查介词。protect sth from/against...意为“保护某物免于……”,为固定搭配。故填from或against。
8.答案 an
解析 考查冠词。a wide range of意为“范围广泛的”,为固定短语。又因为空后的extremely的发音以元音音素开头,此处应用不定冠词an。故填an。
9.答案 their
解析 考查代词。分析句子可知,此处用形容词性物主代词修饰后面的名词marks,表示“它们的印记”。故填their。
10.答案 greatly
解析 考查副词。分析该句成分可知,所填词在此处修饰动词benefit,作状语,故用所给形容词的副词形式greatly。故填greatly。
