upjokes.答案与解析1.construction。句意：据说长江大桥将于明年完工。结合句意可知此处用名词形式，故答案为construction。2.existence。考查词性转换。句意：尽管空气存在于我们身边，但是我们几乎感觉不到它的存在。根据前而的the可知，空处用名词形式。故填existence。3.based。考查过去分词。此处该用过去分词做定语。4.haswitnessed。考查现在完成时。句意：众所周知，中国在过去的30年里发生了巨大的变化。时间状语“during/in/overthepast时间段”常和现在完成时连用，故填haswitnessed。5.evident。句意：很明显，公司陷入了财政困难。固定句式：itsevidentthat.“很明显”。故答案为o。固定短语：lookinto“调查”。7.tohavebought。besaidtohavedone“据说做了”，固定句型。8.toexplain；puzzled。behardtodo为固定搭配，故第一空填toexplain。ved式的形容词puzzled常修饰人，故第二空填puzzled。9.are。此句为倒装句，主语是differentkindsoftrees，故谓语动词为are。10.strengths。由and连接的并列结构weaknesses可知，此处应填strong的名词复数形式。11.willbedismissed。根据句子结构及语境可知，此处应填dismiss的一般将来时的被动语态的形式。12.wasawarded。考查动词的时态和语态。由上文的谓语动词benefited可知此处应用一般过去时态；又因award和he之间是动宾关系，应用被动语态。故填wasawarded。13.up。句意：他答应八点来，但到现在还没来。分析句子结构可知，空处填动词短语，结合句意可知，showup意为“出现”，且此处是现在完成时，故填up。14.occurred。句意：那起空难在飞机仅仅起飞了五分钟后就发生了。occur是不及物动词，不能用于进行时和被动语态。15.making。由and连接的并列结构telling可知，故此空填making。二、阅读理解阅读下列短文，从每题所给的a、b、c和d四个选项中，选出最佳选项。amuseumsskyscrapermuseumwednesdaysunday：10：00a.m.6：00p.m.adults：$53057562385interestedintallbuildings？design？thenthismuseumisforyou！checkthehistoricalbuildingsandtheirspecialdesignrightinlowermanhattan.madametussaudswax(蜡像)museumsundaythursday：10：00a.m.8：00p.m.fridaysaturday：10：00a.m.10：00p.m.adults：$29students：$133055329623thestudentsinmanhattanhadanexcitingexperienceatmadametussauds！theymethundredsoffamouspeopleatadiscounted(打折)
