Men have explored parts of _2_the moon, put spaceships in orbit around another planet and possibly within the decade will land into another planet and _3_explore it. Can we be too bold as to suggest that we may be _4_able to colonize other planet within the nottoodistant _5_future? Some have advocated such a procedure as a solution to the population problem. ship the excess people off to the moon. But we must keep in head the billions of dollars we _6_might spend in carrying out the project. To maintain the earths population at its present level. we would have to blast off into space 7,500 people every hour of every day of the year.Why are we spending so little money on space _7_exploration? Consider the great need for improving many _8_aspects of the global environment, one is surely justified in his concern for the money and resources that they are poured _9_into the space exploration efforts. But perhaps we shouldlook at both sides of the coin before arriving hasty conclusions. _10_ 答案：1. had - has2. directly - indirectly 3. into -onto / on4. too - so5. planet - planets6. head - mind7. little - much8. Consider - Considering9. they - / 10. arriving 后加at 或 arriving - reaching 考点例析： 例1： If his aim is inaccurate and he scores a goal, enjoys S3._ the hunters triumph of killing his prey. 解析：这是由一个条件状语从句引导的复合句。但主句只有谓语动词enjoys，缺少主语，因此要步上主语。根据从句的his aim可推断应该加上主语he。 例2：Nuclear physicists who interested in the structure of 5._ atoms cannot observe protons, electrons and neutrons directly. 解析：如果将who后面的部分作定语从句，那么它绝少谓语，故将who去掉，此时分词短语interested in直接作定语修饰前面的physicists。或在who后加are，补全定语从句。 例3：This alliance guarantees that all leprosy patients, even they S6._ are poor, have a right to the most modern treatment. 解析：even是副词，后面不能直接跟句子，根据句子的意思，应该在even后加if或though。 巩固与拓展 1.

Another changehas been caused by the fact people are _ living longer nowadays, and many old people live alone following the death of their partners巩固与拓展： 1. 在performer后加as 此处为同级比较，固定结构为as.as.，而原句比较的对象a medical student前缺少连词as。 2. want - wanting或those后加who for为介词，后面的宾语时代词those，不可再跟主谓结构。故将want改为wanting，用现在分词短语作定语修饰those，或者在want前加who构成定语从句修饰those. 3. inaugurate后加it 4. made后加it 句子主语是law，谓语是made，easier是宾语补足语，逻辑宾语是to get a divorce，可见此句缺少形式宾语it. 5. fact后加that fact之后的部分是同位语从句，补充说明fact，其引导词不能省略。 综合训练 1. small - smaller 该句后面有than，所以前面应该是smaller。Manymore peolpe than ever are drinking coffee these days - but in small 1._ quantities than they used to. Some manufacturers of coffee makers are trying to maketake advantage of this trend by developing diminutive machines 2._ that brew（煮）smaller amounts of coffee.

There are several models, including 9._ one that firs under the counter, ranging from $60 to $110 at price. 101. small - smaller 该句后面有than，所以前面应该是smaller。2. make - take take advantage of 为固定搭配，意思为“利用”，与其同样意思的词组还有make use of。 3.basing - based base和它的逻辑主语是被动关系。 be based on sth 以什么为基础base sth on sth 以为基础what are you basing this theory on ?你这种理论的根据是什么？ 4. has - have 句子的主语是two US appliance companies, 谓语动词要用复数。 做短文改错先找句子主干：判断时态，单复数5.
