答案以及解析
一、
1.答案:various
2.答案:technical
3.答案:Having missed
解析:句意:因为已经错过了最后一班公共汽车,我不得不打车回家。分析句子结构可知,空处作原因状语。又因为句子主语I与动词miss之间为逻辑上的主谓关系,且miss的动作发生在句子谓语动词表示的动作之前,所以用动词-ing形式的完成式作状语。故填Having missed。
4.答案:sitting
解析:句意:请坐在后面的人保持安静好吗 结合句意可知,空处作定语修饰the people。又因the people与sit之间为逻辑上的主谓关系,所以用动词-ing形式作定语。故填sitting。
5.答案:saying
解析:句意:我们提出开车送Sharon回家,但她拒绝了,说她想步行回去。结合句意并分析句子结构可知,空处应用动词-ing形式作伴随状语。故填saying。
6.答案:leaving
解析:句意:当Wilson加热这个容器的时候,它爆炸了,导致Wilson失明。结合句意并分析句子结构可知,空处应用动词-ing形式作结果状语,表示自然而然的结果。故填leaving。

10.答案:request
二、
答案:① has launched ②to make ③scheduled ④measures ⑤its ⑥that/ which ⑦updating ⑧biggest ⑨ensuring ⑩apparently
解析:①考查时态和主谓一致。根据时间状语since Feb. 3可知应用现在完成时, 主语为China, 助动词应用has, 故填has launched。
②考查不定式作状语。分析句子结构可知, 此处作目的状语, 应用不定式, 故填to make。
③考查过去分词作定语。be scheduled to do sth. 计划做某事, 此处用过去分词作后置定语, 故填scheduled。
④考查名词的数。measure作"措施" 讲为可数名词, 根据上文as part of表示"作为……的一部分" 可知应用名词复数形式, 故填measures。
⑤考查代词。此处修饰名词spread, 应用形容词性物主代词, 故填its。
⑥考查定语从句。此处为定语从句, 修饰先行词platform, 且关系词在从句中作主语, 应用关系代词that或which, 故填that或which。
⑦考查动名词作宾语。keep doing sth. 持续做某事, 故填updating。
⑧考查形容词最高级。由语境及常识可知此处表示"最大的", 应用形容词最高级, 故填biggest。
⑨考查现在分词作状语。分析句子结构可知, 此处作状语, ensure与其逻辑主语The government之间为主动关系, 应用现在分词作状语, 故填ensuring。
⑩考查副词。修饰谓语动词应用副词, 故填apparently。
