56.【解析】tobecome。考查非谓语动词。managetodosth.努力做成某事。57.【解析】for。考查介词。这些美国人涌进中国餐馆是为了圣诞节晚宴,空格位于名词前,使用介词for表示目的。58.【解析】rarely。考查副词。副词作状语修饰动词succeeded。59.【解析】immigrants。考查名词的数。句子缺主语,根据were可知用可数名词的复数形式。
60.【解析】construction。考查名词。空格位于定冠词与介词之间,故填名词形式。61.【解析】catering。考查非谓语动词。句子谓语动词是boomed,故空格处填非谓语动词。句子主语与caterto之间是主动关系,故使用现在分词作状语。caterto满足某种需要或要求;满足……的需要。62.【解析】which/that。考查定语从句。定语从句的先行词为publicplaces,表示地名,但是在从句中作主语,故使用which/that。63.【解析】it。考查主语从句。主语是that从句,it作形式主语。
64.【解析】hasfound。考查时态。由“Overthepastyears”可知,用现在完成时。Google是第三人称单数,故填hasfound。65.【解析】acceptable。考查形容词。空格位于名词alternative前,不定冠词后,故使用形容词形式。
