(二)短文填空
答案:who/that to increase brought and economic in steps further an raising
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了萧山的稻鱼养殖系统。
①考查定语从句。句意:萧山本地人吴明浩去年在6.7公顷的土地上尝试了这种联合耕作系统,他说他预计今年的收入将增加8万元。句中先行词为Wu Minghao,在定语从句中作主语,所以用关系代词who或that引导。故填who/that。
②考查非谓语动词。句意:萧山本地人吴明浩去年在6.7公顷的土地上尝试了这种联合耕作系统,他说他预计今年的收入将增加8万元。expect…to…预期……。故填to increase。
③考查非谓语动词。句意:吴明浩表示,在稻田里养大的小龙虾更受消费者的欢迎,因为它们是环保的——小龙虾的排泄物可以增加土壤的自然肥力,促进水稻产量的增加。句中已有谓语动词,所以用非谓语动词形式。名词crayfish与bring之间为被动关系,所以用过去分词作后置定语。故填brought。
④考查连词。句意:吴明浩表示,在稻田里养大的小龙虾更受消费者的欢迎,因为它们是环保的——小龙虾的排泄物可以增加土壤的自然肥力,促进水稻产量的增加。前后句之间为并列关系,所以用并列连词and。故填and。
⑤考查形容词。句意:这些土地过去只用于种植水稻,经济效益相对较低。名词benefits前用形容词修饰。故填economic。
⑥考查介词。句意:从事水产养殖40多年的王林欢也在这片134公顷的土地上推出了合作养殖计划。be engaged in忙于……;致力于……。故填in。
⑦考查名词的数。句意:他说,他将采取措施探索稻虾、稻龟和稻鱼的养殖模式。take steps to采取措施。故填steps。
⑧考查副词。句意:王说:“我们计划引入各种农业、文化和旅游项目,如游学,以进一步激发农村发展的活力。”修饰动词stimulate,用副词形式。故填further。
⑨考查冠词。句意:到2025年,全市预计实现水产亩产平均增产50公斤以上(0.06/公顷),水稻亩产平均增产500公斤以上,亩产增收2000元以上。名词increase为可数名词,泛指,且形容词average发音以元音音素开头,所以用不定冠词an。故填an。
⑩考查非谓语动词。句意:到2025年,全市预计实现水产亩产平均增产50公斤以上(0.06/公顷),水稻亩产平均增产500公斤以上,亩产增收2000元以上。表示自然而然带来的结果,用现在分词作结果状语。故填raising。Unit 6 At one with nature Using Language

定语从句(3)
一、“介词+关系代词”引导的定语从句
关系副词when, where, why引导定语从句时可被“介词+关系代词”代替。在“介词+关系代词”引导的定语从句中,关系代词只能用which或whom,不可用that或who。先行词指物时用1._______,先行词指人时用2._______。
1. “介词 +which”可以替代关系副词 when, where, why
(1)替代when
(2)替代why
2. 依据与先行词的固定搭配确定使用什么介词
3. 依据定语从句中动词或形容词的搭配来确定介词
4. 根据定语从句所表达的具体意思来确定介词
除了“介词+which”以外,如果定语从句的先行词是“人”,那么也可以用“介词+whom”引导定语从句。
5. “介词 + 关系代词”的其他表达法
(1)如果在whom和which 之前用of 表示所属关系(即of whom, of which表示所属关系),这时名词需要3._______,应加4._______,该名词放在of whom, of which 之前或之后均可。
(2)在whom和which之前用of还可以表示部分与整体的关系。这时表示“5._______”的数词或代词,放在of whom, of which之前或之后均可。
二、特殊结构的定语从句
除了限制性定语从句和非限制性定语从句外,还有一些其他形式的定语从句。这些定语从句在实际运用过程中具有较强的灵活性,因此其结构也较为复杂。
1. 嵌入式定语从句
“嵌入式”,相当于在定语从句前加了一个“主谓句”(位置在关系词之后),让定语从句作其6._______。
2. 并列式定语从句
“并列式”,是两个或以上的定语从句相互并列,中间由7._______连接,共同修饰一个先行词,相互之间不包含、不修饰、不重叠。
3. 多重式定语从句
“多重式”是两个定语从句按先后顺序和不同层次修饰先行词,即两个定语从句的谓语表示的动作发生的时间有先有后,其中一个包含另一个。第二个定语从句的关系代词8._______省略,中间不能用and连接。
4. 省略式定语从句
在含将来意义的定语从句中,我们可以省略主语和谓语的一部分(主要是情态动词和助动词),而代之以“介词+关系代词+不定式”。
5. 分隔式定语从句
定语从句一般紧跟在被它所修饰的先行词9._______:但有时候它和先行词之间插入其他成分,使得它与先行词分隔开来,这种定语从句叫作分隔式定语从句。
(1)先行词与定语从句被一个状语分隔。
(2)先行词与定语从句被另一个定语分隔。
(3)先行词与定语从句被谓语分隔。
此时,先行词通常是句子的主语,因定语从句较长,主句谓语较短,为使句子结构平衡,常将定语从句移至10._______之后。
1.The teacher about _______ we talked just now is from England.
2.You also have to wonder at the unique madness of a language in _______ a house can burn up as it burns down.
3.After two months in America, Tian Hua made some friends with _______ she explored the city.
4.The book _______ which we had a discussion yesterday is very interesting.
5.Scientists are still trying to determine the extent _______ which climate change will impact coastal communities in the next decade.
6.He learned the value and _______ (beautiful) of nature there from a very young age.
7. (consume) can buy cars from websites without ever going for a test drive.
8.Thinking about something confusing, he gazed at the horizon, with his eyes _______ (narrow).
9.We must provide good _______ (material) for developing the students’ reading skills.
10.Do you think paper money _______ (replace) by electronic money in the future.

谓语
1.答案:whom
解析:考查定语从句。句意:我们刚才谈到的那位老师是英国人。空处和空前的about搭配,形成“介词+关系代词”的结构,引导限制性定语从句,修饰先行词The teacher,先行词指人,作介词about的宾语,因此用关系代词whom。故填whom。
2.答案:which
解析:考查定语从句。句意:你也不得不感叹一种语言的独特疯狂之处,在这种语言中,一所房子在“burns down(烧毁)”时,也可以说它“burns up(烧尽)”。空处引导定语从句,为“介词 + 关系词”引导的定语从句,先行词为language,指物,在定语从句中作介词in的宾语,需用关系代词which引导。故填which。
3.答案:whom
解析:考查定语从句。句意:在美国待了两个月后,Tian Hua交了一些朋友,她和他们一起游览了这座城市。此处是“介词+关系词”引导的定语从句,先行词是friends,指人,关系词在从句中作介词宾语,应用关系代词whom,故填whom。
4.答案:about
解析:考查介词+关系代词引导的定语从句。句意:我们昨天讨论过的那本书很有趣。分析句子可知,“have a discussion about sth.”是固定短语,意为“关于某事进行讨论”。在这个句子中,“The book”是先行词,which和about构成“介词+which”结构引导定语从句。故填about。
5.答案:to
解析:考查介词。句意:科学家们仍在试图确定气候变化在未来十年对沿海社区的影响程度。本空考查介词+which引导的限制性定语从句,to some extent“在某种程度上”,which指代先行词extend,故空处应填介词to与其搭配。故填to。
6.答案:beauty
解析:考查名词。句意:他从很小的时候就学会了大自然的价值和美丽。此处作宾语,应用名词beauty“美丽”,不可数。故填beauty。
7.答案:Consumers
解析:考查名词。句意:消费者无需试驾就可以从网上购车。本句缺少主语,所以空处应填名词作主语,consume的名词形式是consumer意为“消费者”,根据句意,用复数形式,位于句首,首字母应大写。故填Consumers。
8.答案:narrowing
解析:考查非谓语动词。句意:想着什么莫名其妙的事情,他眯起眼睛凝视着地平线。这里为with的复合结构,在句中作伴随状语,eyes与 narrow之间是主动关系,所以用现在分词。根据句意,故填narrowing。

(二)短文填空
答案:which length known an living Yet/But irreplaceable has disappeared continuing are left
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要讲的是亚马逊雨林及其生态重要性、面临的威胁以及由此引发的思考。
①考查定语从句。句意:亚马逊河是热带雨林的名字,它的长度接近6400公里,比长江长大约100公里。空格处是“介词+which/whom”引导的非限制性定语从句,先行词The Amazon River是亚马逊河,因此空格处用which。故填which。
②考查名词。句意:亚马逊河是热带雨林的名字,它的长度接近6400公里,比长江长大约100公里。空格处用名词作宾语,long的名词是length,是不可数名词,意为“长度”。故填length。
③考查非谓语动词。句意:在我们已知的39万种植物中,有4万多种可以在亚马逊找到。句中谓语是can be found,空格处用非谓语动词,species和know之间是逻辑动宾关系,因此空格处用过去分词表被动,作后置定语。故填known。
④考查冠词。句意:森林的不同层次孕育着种类繁多的野生动物。variety是可数名词的单数形式,表泛指,前面要加不定冠词,unbelievable是元音音素开头,因此不定冠词用an。故填an。
⑤考查形容词。句意:森林的每一层都形成了自己的小世界,是各种生物的家园。空格处用形容词作定语,修饰名词things,此处表示“生物”,是living things。故填living。
⑥考查连词。句意:但是,这些不可替代的动植物面临着一个主要的危险:我们。由“there is one major danger”可知,句子表示“但是,这些不可替代的动植物面临着一个主要的危险:我们”,空格处意为“但是”,用yet/but表转折,位于句首的单词首字母大写。故填Yet/But。
⑦考查形容词。句意:然而,这些不可替代的动植物面临着一个主要的危险:我们。空格处用形容词作定语,修饰名词plants,根据语境可知,句子表示“这些不可替代的动植物面临着一个主要的危险”,空格处意为“不可替代的”,形容词是irreplaceable。故填irreplaceable。
⑧考查时态和主谓一致。句意:在过去的50年里,由于农业和畜牧业等人类活动,大约17%的雨林消失了。由“Over the past 50 years”可知,句子时态用现在完成时,主语about 17 percent of the rainforest是不可数名词,因此空格处是has disappeared。故填has disappeared。
⑨考查非谓语动词。句意:随着人类活动的影响不断增加,面临灭绝危险的物种越来越多,我们面临一个问题:我们能承受得起破坏“地球之肺”吗?此处是with复合结构,rainforest和continue之间是主谓关系,因此空格处用现在分词表主动,作宾语补足语。故填continuing。
⑩考查时态,被动语态和主谓一致。句意:随着人类活动的影响不断增加,面临灭绝危险的物种越来越多,我们面临一个问题:我们能承受得起破坏“地球之肺”吗?we和leave之间是逻辑动宾关系,句子描述现在的事实,时态用一般现在时,因此空格处是一般现在时的被动语态,主语we是复数,因此空格处是are left。故填are left。Unit 6 At one with nature Developing ideas & Presenting ideas

解析:考查名词的数。句意:这种酸奶有十种口味。由ten可知,此处应用名词复数形式flavours,在句中作宾语,故填flavours。

解析:考查动词时态和语态。句意:这本杂志自五年前出版以来,在青少年中一直很受欢迎。空处为从句的谓语动词。根据时间状语five years ago可知,从句谓语动词应使用一般过去时;又因主语it(指代magazine)与publish之间为被动关系,故应使用一般过去时的被动语态。故填was published。
4.答案:branches
解析:考查名词复数。句意:一个小男孩爬上苹果树,摇晃着它的树枝,让苹果掉了下来。branch,意为 “树枝”,为可数名词。根据语境,男孩摇晃的是苹果树的多个树枝,所以这里应用复数形式作宾语。故填branches。

(二)短文填空
答案:leads universities showing published as to determine an extremely our What
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了城市花园和农场对生态多样性、当地生态系统以及人类福祉的积极影响。
①考查时态。句意:传统上,人们一直认为种植粮食会导致生物多样性的丧失以及对生态系统产生负面影响。分析句子可知,这里考查谓语动词,that引导的宾语从句中,planting food是动名词作主语,动名词作主语时,谓语动词用第三人称单数形式,此处描述的是一般性情况,用一般现在时。故填leads。
②考查名词复数。句意:来自众多大学的研究人员的一项新研究挑战了这一假设,表明社区花园和城市农场对生物多样性、当地生态系统和人类福祉有积极影响。分析句子可知,large numbers of 表示“大量的”,其后接可数名词复数,university的复数形式是universities。故填universities。
③考查非谓语。句意:来自众多大学的研究人员的一项新研究挑战了这一假设,表明社区花园和城市农场对生物多样性、当地生态系统和人类福祉有积极影响。分析句子可知,句子的谓语是challenges,show与主语A new study是主动关系,所以用现在分词作伴随状语。故填showing。
④考查非谓语。句意:这项发表在《生态学快报》上的研究在五年时间里对加州的 28 个城市社区花园进行了调查并对植物和动物生命中的生物多样性以及诸如粮食生产和人类福祉等生态系统功能进行了量化。分析句子可知,这里考查非谓语,study与publish之间是被动关系,所以用过去分词作后置定语,修饰study。故填published。
⑤考查介词。句意:这项发表在《生态学快报》上的研究在五年时间里对加州的 28 个城市社区花园进行了调查并对植物和动物生命中的生物多样性以及诸如粮食生产和人类福祉等生态系统功能进行了量化。分析句子可知,这里考查such as,是固定搭配,意为“例如,诸如”。故填as。
⑥考查非谓语。句意:“我们想确定在生物多样性或对生态系统功能的影响方面是否存在任何权衡,”非正式教授沙琳 贾说。分析句子可知,want to do sth.是固定用法,意为“想要做某事”,所以用动词不定式作宾语。故填to determine。
⑦考查冠词。句意:“我们想确定在生物多样性或对生态系统功能的影响方面是否存在任何权衡,”非正式教授沙琳 贾说。分析句子可知,professor是可数名词单数,此处表示泛指“一位非正式教授”,且informal是以元音音素开头的单词,所以用不定冠词an。故填an。
⑧考查副词。句意:我们发现,这些花园为园丁提供了丰富的资源并提高了他们的福祉,同时也维持着极高水平的动植物生物多样性。分析句子可知,high是形容词,需要用副词来修饰,extreme的副词形式是extremely。故填extremely。
⑨考查代词。句意:城市农场和花园目前提供了我们约15%~20%的粮食供应,因此它们在应对粮食挑战方面非常重要。分析句子可知,food supply是名词短语,前面需要用形容词性物主代词来修饰,we的形容词性物主代词是our。故填our。
⑩考查主语从句。句意:我们所看到的是,城市花园为支持生物多样性和当地粮食生产提供了一个重要机会。分析句子可知,“____ we’re seeing”是主语从句,从句中缺少宾语,表示“所……的事情”,所以用what引导,且句首时首字母应大写。故填What。
