【解析】

這是一篇說明文。文章指出在不同國家地區(qū)旅游的過程中,人們可能接觸到各種意想不到的文化差異,并列舉了一些有趣的例子。

1

考查非謂語動詞。句意:從用很多硬幣購物到在戶外點上一支香煙,這些都是很奇怪且令人尷尬的旅行錯誤,是旅行者們極力避免的。這里空白處與前面的shopping并列,分別作fromto的介詞,要用動名詞。故填lighting

2

考查名詞。句意:從用很多硬幣購物到在戶外點上一支香煙,這些都是很奇怪且令人尷尬的旅行錯誤,是旅行者們極力避免的。分析句子結(jié)構可知,這里是省略that的定語從句,空白處需要主語,從后面的do their best to avoid來看,應該是指某種人群,顯然只能用travelers表示“游客們”。故填travelers。

3

考查代詞。句意:比如,在舊金山的街道上喂鴿子就是違法的。分析句子可知,這里是it作形式主語,不定式是真正主語的句型“it is+形容詞+to do sth.”。故填it。

4

考查非謂語動詞。句意:這座以金門大橋聞名的城市指責鳥類會傳播疾病、破壞財產(chǎn)。be known for意為“以……而出名”,這里knowcity的后置定語,與city之間是被動關系,要用過去分詞形式。故填known。

5

考查定語從句。句意:任何被發(fā)現(xiàn)在舊金山給鴿子喂食的人都將面臨一筆很重的罰款。分析句子結(jié)構可知,整句中有兩個謂語動詞,考慮復合句,空白后的句子應該是作定語修飾anyone的,anyone作為先行詞是人屬性,關系代詞可以用that或者who。故填who/that。

6

考查時態(tài)和語態(tài)。句意:此外,市民們也被鼓勵向當?shù)鼐脚e報喂鴿子者。聯(lián)系前文對喂食鴿子這一行為的懲罰,這里顯然指政府鼓勵當?shù)厥忻駲z舉,市民們是被鼓勵,要用被動語態(tài)。故填are encouraged。

7

考查形容詞最高級。句意:新加坡有著世界上對吸煙行為最嚴厲的處罰。從句中給出的比較范疇in the world可以推斷,這里要用serious的最高級形式。故填the most serious。

8

考查副詞。句意:更令人驚訝的是,如果你在加拿大購物,不要指望收銀員會收你一大堆硬幣。分析句子可知,surprise在這里作狀語修飾整個后句,要用surprisingly表示“令人驚訝的是”。故填surprisingly。

9

考查非謂語動詞。句意:更令人驚訝的是,如果你在加拿大購物,不要指望收銀員會收你一大堆硬幣。expect sb. to do sth.意為“期待某人做某事”,即其后接動詞要用不定式。故填to accept。

10

考查介詞。句意:根據(jù)加拿大的貨幣法案,商店可以合法拒收過量的硬幣。 amounts of“......的數(shù)量”。故填of

Humans have already wiped out hundreds of species and pushed many more to the brink of extinction through wildlife trade,pollutionhabitat loss and the use of toxic substances. The findings published in the scientific Journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences( PNAS)show that the rate at which species are dying out has accelerated in recent decades.

Gerardo Ceballos González,a professor of ecology at the National Autonomous University of Mexico and one of the authors of the study,said approximately 173 species went extinct between 2001 and 2014. “173 species is 25 times more extinct species than you would expect under the normal extinction rate. ”he told CNN in an email.

【題目】 There are now six fires burning at emergency levels in Australia.1The smoke is so intense and so thick it can be seen from space. 2,000 homes have been destroyed. Six million hectares of land charred, leading to death of the nation’s wildlife.

2They are lightning strikes, winds and people who set fire deliberately. But one of the biggest reasons they’ve become so extreme, is the same reason as East Africa’s flood. Bushfires in Australia are a natural part of the country’s ecosystem.3Even New South Wales, with the largest population, is used to breaking out. In 1974, fires burned 3.5 million hectares, and in 2003, another 2 million hectares were lost to fire. But the fires that started in 2019 are even worse:4.9 million hectares in New South Wales have burned alreadyand it’s only going to grow.

4For starters, as the world is getting warmer from climate change, so is Australia. 2019 was its hottest year on record, with parts of the country reaching 45 degrees Celsius in December. 2019 was also its driestthe places here in gray have seen historic droughts.5Throughout the year, other large-scale climate drivers affect Australia’s weather, and its likeliness to burn. One of the most influential is the Indian Ocean Dipole(偶極子), or the IOD. The IOD is a big temperature gradient that affects the surface water in the Indian Ocean, from the edge of Africa to the edge of Australia.

A.This is just heartbreaking.

B.So why is this fire season so awful?

C.Their “fire season” varies across regions.

D.The fire season is awful because of the unknown reason.

E.The ecosystem of the country needs to be improved.

F.These record-breaking bushfires in Australia have been started by the following.

G.Together, that provides the perfect conditions for bushfires to start and spread quickly.
