物。然而,事实并非如此。美国拥有足够的食物供应,但每天有40%的食物被浪费掉。导致食物浪费的原因有很多,

物”,故填whicho

23.iswasted:根据句子结构和上下文,此处需要使用被动语态,表示“被浪费”,且主语是“food”,故填iswasted。

24.can:根据句意和语法,此处需要使用情态动词can,表示“能够”,强调穷人和农村地区经常无法支付健康食品

的价格,故填can。

25.suchas:此处需要使用介词短语“suchas”,表示“例如“,用来列举健康食品的例子,故填suchas。

26.those:根据上下文,表示“那些“没有足够食物的人,故填those。

27.While/When:根据句意,此处需要使用时间状语从句的连词,表示“当…的时候”,可填While或When。

28.toeat:根据句意和语法,此处需要使用不定式作后置定语,表示“吃的东西”,故填toeat。

30.whether/if/what/where:根据句意和语法,此处需要使用宾语从句的引导词,表示“是否/如果/什么/哪里“,用来

【答案】21.what22.for23.haveunderstood24.totake25.asking

26.if27.that/which28.featuring29.planned30.moreexciting

【解析】

【导读】文章大意:作者一直对“居家度假”持怀疑态度,他们认为这个新词太可爱了,而且让人感到舒适:当其他

人开着房车去探索蓝湖时,你可以待在自己的家里,去你平常去的超市买点心!但作者发现他们对“居家度假”的理

解是错误的。事实上,没有计划地休息很难产生恢复效果。心理学教授詹姆斯・麦迪逊大学的杰米・库尔茨建议人们

问自己:“如果我快搬走了,我最想做什么,和谁最想待在一起?”作者认同“活得每一天都像最后一天”这句话,因

为它提醒人们时间飞逝,让人活得更好。无论你是否有一个正式的度假计划,你都可以把即将到来的周末看作是一

个两天的迷你假期,并按照去一个新地方的方式来安排它。

21.what:根据上下文,这里需要填入一个名词,与“fbelslikeacomfort”相呼应,表示“对于什么感觉像安慰”。句

子结构为“too+形容词+for+名词”,故填入what。

22.for:根据上下文,这里表示去超市"买点心"(cookies),表示目的地点,故填入for。

23.haveunderstood:根据上下文,这里表示“我之前对居家度假的理解是错误的“,使用现在完成时。故填入have

understoodo

24.totake:根据上下文,这里表示“我的倾向是休息没有计划”,使用不定式做后置定语修饰前面名词。故填入totake。

25.asking:根据上下文,这里表示建议自己问自己一个问题,“问自己”用动词-ing形式表示。故填入asking。

26.if:根据上下文,这里表示“如果它让你更好地生活”的条件,使用连词if。故填入if。

27.that/which:根据上下文,这里表示“不尝起来可怕的素食冰淇淋”,引导非限制性定语从句,使用that或which0

故填入that/whicho

28.featuring:根据上下文,这里表示“展示自然界声音”的BBC播客,使用动词-ing形式表示特征。故填入featuring»

29.planned:根据上下文,这里表示“是否为即将到来的几周有一个合适的度假计划”,使用过去分词作后置定语。

故填入planned»

30.moreexciting:根据上下文,这里表示“一个比仅仅,尽量多睡觉,和,修剪草坪,更刺激的旅程”,需要形容词比较

级。故填入moreexciting。

【答案】21.may22.Inadditionto23.beingrecognized24.of25.mined

26.providing27.proposed28.hadbeenestablished29.which30.themostdiverse

【导读】

这篇文章主要介绍了美国肯塔基州中部的马莫斯洞穴国家公园。该公园保护着历史悠久的石灰岩洞穴系统,被认定

为世界遗产地。这些洞穴形成于石灰岩侵蚀过程中,保存了5000多年的人类历史,提供了关于美洲原住民的珍贵

考古遗址。公园每年吸引数百万游客,提供丰富的自然和冒险体验,包括观光、攀爬和探险。

【解析】

21.may

"estimate”后面需要接动词原形,故应填may。句意为:尽管这个石灰岩洞穴系统很大,公园官员估计可能还有600

英里的洞穴通道尚未被探索。

22.1nadditionto

根据句意可以知道是想要表达除此之外的信息,因此选Inadditionto。句意为:这些未被探索的通道之外,公园内

还有超过200个洞穴与较大的洞穴系统没有关联。

23.beingrecognized

"recognized"作为过去分词修饰前面的"park”,表示公园被承认和认可,符合句意。句意为:这个令人难以置信的洞

穴系统已经获得世界遗产地保护,这归功于其非凡的大小和科学重要性,这使它成为美国仅有的13个拥有该称号

的自然景观之一。

24.of

"significance”后面需要接介词"of",表示"历史意义"。句意为:这些洞穴不仅是一个令人惊叹的旅游目的地,而且还

为大约40%的美国人口提供饮用水-它们也具有历史意义。

25.mined

"NativeAmericans"是主语,"mine"是谓语动词,表示开采、挖掘,符合句意。句意为:这些洞穴作为一
