23、饰语，故用复数形式centuries【43题详解】考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知，两个句子之间是逗号，而且没有连词，故判断逗号后部分是非限制性定语从句。先行词是sea cliffs，所以介词后接which引导的定语从句。其中定语从句是介词短语位于句首的倒装句。故填which。【44题详解】考查非谓语动词。根据结构判断空格后部分是非谓语短语作后置定语，被修饰词elephant和动词stick之间是主动关系，故用现在分词形式sticking。【45题详解】考查冠词。句意：然而，事实并非如此。本句中the case 表示“实情，事实”，特指上文In fact, it looks so much li

25、 the 1940s”判断句子用现在完成时，因which指代the Eldfell Volcano，所以填 has erupted。【49题详解】考查副词。修饰动词see应用副词形式，故填actually。【50题详解】考查连词。句意：不管你看到的是大象还是虚构的野兽，作为Heimaey岛上众多景点之一，这块岩石确实吸引了好奇的观光客。固定句型whetheror表示“不管是还是”。故填or。三、 阅读理解18.
