63.torealize

64.What

65.existing/existent

66.luck

67.s

68.was

69.better

70.for61.考查形容词。修饰名词market，用形容词，所以填competitive。62.考查冠词。泛指“一种不利条件”，且disadvantage的首字母发音是辅音，所以填不定冠词a。63.考查固定句型。It’stimeforsb.todosth.是某人做某事的时候了，是固定句型，所以填torealize。64.考查主语从句。___64___wasmostdifficult是一个主语从句，引导词在从句中作主语，所以填what。65.考查非谓语动词。exist与其逻辑主语Café之间是主动关系，所以用现在分词作定语，所以填existing/existent。66.考查固定短语。withgreatluck非常幸运，是固定短语，所以填luck。67.考查名词单复数。我不得不向朋友们和亲戚们借钱。“亲戚们”是复数意义，所以用名词复数，填s。68.考查时态。发生在过去的事情，用一般过去时，所以填was。69.考查比较级。由thanever，可知这里用比较级，所以填better。70.考查固定短语。我对失业充满了感激，它给了我追求梦想的机会。begratefulfor对……心存感激,是固定短语。20.Thereare___72___(vary)kindsofthemeparks.Someparksarefamous___73___havingthebiggestorlongestrollercoasters,___74___forshowingthefamoussightsandsoundsofaculture.___75___andwhateveryoulike,thereisathemeparkforyou!Thethemeparkyouare___76___(probable)mostfamiliarwithisDisneyland.Withalltheseattractions,nowonder___77___(tour)isincreasingwhereverthereisaDisneyland.Dollywoodisoneof___78___(unique)themeparksintheworld.Ithasoneoftheworld’slargestbaldeagle___79___(preserve).InEngland’sCamelotPark,everyareaofitis___80___(model)afterlifeinthedaysofKingArthurandtheKnightsoftheRoundTable.Thereyoucanexperiencetheancientdaysandgreat____81____(deed)ofEnglishknightsandladies,princesandqueens.参考答案：72.various

73.for

74.others

75.Whichever

76.probably

77.tourism

78.themostunique

79.preserves

80.modelled/modeled

81.deeds【分析】本文为说明文。主要介绍了世界上的各种种样的主题公园，如迪斯尼乐园、Dollywood公园和英格兰的卡米洛特公园，各有其各自的主题。不管你喜欢什么样的公园，总有一个主题公园适合你。【72题详解】考查词形变化。句意：有各种各样的主题公园。分析句子可知，本空作定语修饰名词kinds，因此要用动词vary的形容词various。【73题详解】考查固定用法。句意：有些公园以拥有最大或最长的过山车而闻名。be

famousfor…为固定搭配，意为“以……出名”。因此本空填for。【74题详解】考查固定用法。句意：有些公园以拥有最大或最长的过山车而闻名，另一些则以展示著名的风景和文化之声而闻名。Some….,others…为固定用法，意为“一些……，另一些….…”，因此本空填others。【75题详解】考查状语从句的引导词。句意：不管你喜欢什么，总有一个主题公园给你！分析句子可知，本句为状语从句，从句中的动词like缺少宾语，whatever与whichever都是“无论哪一个，都”，只是whichever有范围，whatever没有范围。根据语境可知，不论你喜欢哪一个，本小题可以填whatever或whichever，因为句中有whatever，所以填whichever。【76题详解】考查副词。句意：你最熟悉的主题公园可能是迪斯尼乐园。分析句子可知，本空格在句中作状语，因此要用副词形式。因此填probably。【77题详解】考查名词。句意：有这么多吸引人的景点，难怪有迪斯尼乐园的地方旅游不断增加。分析句子可知，本空在句中作主语，根据句意可知填tourism。【78题详解】考查最高级。句意：Dollywood是世界上最独特的主题公园之一。根据“oneof…”可知，本空要用最高级。分析语境可知，本空填the

mostunique。【79题详解】考查谓语名词。分析句子可知，本空格在句中作of的宾语。此处是指“它拥有世界上最大的秃鹰保护区之一”，“保护区”即“preserve”。文中指的是保护区之一，是多个中的一个，因此要用复数形式，故填preserves。【80题详解】考查被动语态。句意：在英格兰的卡米洛公园，它的每一个区域都是仿照亚瑟王和圆桌骑士时代生活的。modelafter…为固定搭配，意为“仿照……制作“。分析句子可知，本句的主语“每一个区域”与动词model二者是被动关系，因此要用被动语态，故填modelled/modeled。【81题详解】考查名词复数。分析句子可知，本空格被形容词great修饰,形容词修饰名词，因此本空填名词deed。根据语意可知，此处是指“在那里，你可以体验到英国骑士和女士们、王子和王后的生活的古代生活他们的伟大事迹”。由语境可知，有许多的事迹，要用名词的复数形式，所以填deeds。【点睛】语法填空要求结合文章内容填出单词，所填单词往往与文章的内容息息相关，因而解题前必须通读全文，对全文内容有一个整体的了解，从中获取文章的基本信息。通读后再复读，边读边填词。1.填词时应注意所填词的词性，如果是动词，需根据其在句中的意思确定其正确的时态、语态及非谓语动词形式。比如文章如第1小题，分析句子可知，本空作定语修饰名词kinds，因此要用动词vary的形容词various。第9小题考查被动语态。分析句子可知，本句的主语“每一个区域”与动词model二者是被动关系，因此要用被动语态，故填modelled/modeled。2.如果是形容词、副词应注意其等级的变化及两者之间的转化，第7小题考查形容词最高级。根据“oneof…”可知，本空要用最高级。分析语境可知，此处是指“Dollywood是世界上最独特的主题公园之一”，故本空填the

mostunique。3.如果考查某些固定搭配，认真分析。第2小题考查固定搭配。此处是指“有些公园以拥有最大或最长的过山车而闻”，be

famousfor…为固定搭配，意为“以……出名”。因此本空填for。4.对于有一定难度的空处，先将其放置一边做后面的，最后再从全篇内容上考虑、分析，仔细体会出题者的意图。填完所有单词后，必须将所有填的词带入文中再读一遍，仔细检查自己所填的词是否与文章的情境、内容一致，读起来是否流畅，单词拼写是否正确，单词形式是否恰当等，发现问题应及时纠正。三、阅读理解21.
