【答案】 has grown;the;actually;to improve;than;pollution;global;started
;that/which;feeding
【解析】⑴has grown.考查谓语动词的时态。注意:常见表示完成时的标志词有 since, recently,
for+一段时间等。由句中的时间状语 since 2011 可知用现在完成时,主语 the country 是单数,
故答案为 has grown。
⑵the 考查冠词的用法。The 表示特指,a/an 表示泛指。句意:在过去的 25 年,玉米的产
量增长了差不多 125%,而水稻只增长了 7%。短语:in the past …years 在过去的…年,故
答案为 the。
语法填空
⑶actually 考查形容词副词的转换。句意:对肉的喜爱实际上是变化背后的原因。此处修饰
动词,所以将形容词 actual 变为副词,故答案为 actually。
⑷to improve 考查不定式作目的状语。句意:政府鼓励农民种玉米而不中水稻,是为了改
善水质。此处作目的状语,故答案为 to improve。
⑸than 考查连词的使用。句意:玉米的用水比水稻要少,并且产生化肥的径流量要少。由
句意结合比较级 less 可知此处构成前后比较的关系,故答案为 than。
⑹pollution 考查词性转化。句意:这种转换减少了国家的一些主要湖泊里的污染。此处是
及物动词 decrease 的宾语,所以用名词,故答案为 pollution。
⑺global 考查词性转换。句意:根据世界银行统计,中国占全球化肥消耗的 30%。此处修
饰名词 fertilizer consumption,所以用形容词,故答案为 global,全球的。
⑻started 考查时态。句意:在 2005 年,政府发起了一个土壤检测活动,这向农民推荐了具
体的化肥的使用。此处是从句中的谓语,when 指先行词 2005,所以用一般过去时,故答案
为 started。
⑼that/which 考查定语从句关系词的选择。此处指代先行词 a soil-testing program,并且在从
句中作主语,故答案为 that 或 which。
⑽feeding 考查非谓语动词。while 是连词,后跟动词-ing 作伴随状语,故答案为 feeding。

【答案】 longer;to see;dying;is;than;that/which;causes;strengthen;energetic;it/running
【解析】这是一篇议论文,谈论跑步带来的好处。
⑴longer 考查形容词的比较等级。空后有 than, 故此处用比较级 longer。
⑵to see 考查非谓语动词。 句意:你不必快跑或跑很长的距离才会看到益处,此处 to see
the benefit 作结果状语。故答案为 to see。
⑶dying 考查非谓语动词。 空前有介词 of, 介词后出现动词,只能用这个动词的动名词形
式作宾语。故答案为 dying。
⑷is 考查动词的时态和语态。句意:虽然经常跑步不能使你永远活着,但是评论说经常跑
步在延长生命这方面比步行更有效。此处用一般现在时表示客观事实,it 是第三人称单数,
故答案为 is。
⑸than 考查连词。句中 it 指代 running, 空后是 walking,都是动名词,再根据句意:虽然经
常跑步不能使你永远活着,但是评论说经常跑步在延长生命这方面比步行更有效,故填连
词 than。
⑹that/which 考查定语从句。 空处为关系代词作定语从句的主语,先行词为 a study, published
in 2014 是过去分词短语作 a study 的定语,定语从句没有紧跟在先行词后,属于定语从句的
隔离现象。故答案为 that/which.
⑺causes 考查名词单复数。cause(原因,起因)是可数名词,前面有 all,all 后可接可数名词,
也可接不可数名词,接可数名词要用复数。故答案为 causes.
⑻strengthen 考查词性转换。空前有不定式符号 to, 所以此处应该填 strength 的动词形式。
故答案为 strengthen。
⑼energetic 考查词性转换。根据前面的 is cheap,easy,所以后面的 is 后也应为形容词 energetic
此处意思应为“有效的,效果显著的”,主语不是人,不能翻译为“精力充沛的”。故答案为
energetic。
⑽it/running 考查代词 give it a try 试一试,为固定短语,根据上文,此处 it 指代 running。
故答案为 it/running。
