答案解析
▶
答案是events。该题考查名词单复数。前文有one of the most important,后面的名词应使用复数形式,表示“最重要的事件之一”。
答案是but。该题考查连词。but用于连接两个表示转折的句子,说明尽管排灯节通常在十月和十一月之间,但具体日期每年都会变化。
答案是on。该题考查介词搭配。固定短语be based on意为“基于”,表示印度历是以月亮运行为参考的。
答案是to symbolize。该题考查非谓语(to do)。使用不定式to symbolize表示目的,说明人们点灯象征着光明战胜黑暗。
答案是their。该题考查代词转换(人称-物主)。their指代前文提到的people,表示“他们的家”。
答案是traditional。该题考查词性转换(名词-形容词)。tradition形容词traditional用来修饰designs,表示“传统的图案”。
答案是made。该题考查非谓语动ed。过去分词made作后置定语,功能上等同于定语从句which is made,用来修饰designs,表示“这些设计由彩色粉末制作而成”。
答案是who。该题考查从句引导词。who引导定语从句,指代前面的Lakshmi,在从句中作主语,表示“其被称为财富女神”。
答案是people's。该题考查名词所有格。使用名词所有格people's,表示“人们的家”。
答案是pollution。该题考查词性转换(动词-名词)。此处需要用名词pollution,severe air pollution意思是“严重的空气污染”。

答案解析
▶
答案是being。该题考查非谓语动词ing 。介词后的动词需要变为动名词,作该介词的宾语。
答案是created。该题考查谓语动词时态。since在此处做时间状语从句的引导词,描述发生在过去的动作谓语动词需要用过去时。另外,动词create和主语Japanese company Sanrio之间是主动关系,无需用被动。
答案是who。该题考查从句引导词。who作定语从句的关系代词,指代girl, 意为“一个像猫一样欢快的女孩,与家人住在伦敦郊区”。
答案是amusement。该题考查词性转换(动词-名词)。该词的位置在一个列表式的并列名词短语结构,将动词转为名词,作中心词park的定语。amusement park即“游乐园”。
答案是commercial。该题考查词性转换(名词-形容词)。空格前的不定冠词a说明其后需要名词短语,而空格后的giant已经是名词,故此处需要转换为形容词。commercial giant即“商业巨头”。
答案是an。该题考查冠词。“an estimated+金额”是常见的表达,可以理解为是“an estimated amount of…”的省略结构。
答案是Designed。该题考查非谓语动词ed。非谓语动词design和逻辑主语(逗号后的she)是被动关系,即“she was designed...”
答案是as。该题考查介词。此处as意为“作为”, 本句简短,但含义较丰富,意为“这位二十四岁的插画师的父亲曾送给她一只猫作为礼物,而这只猫启发她创作了这个像猫一样的作品”。
答案是company’s。该题考查名词所有格。表示从属关系。此处表示后者(品牌)是前者(公司)的一部分。
答案是immediately。该题考查词性转换(形容词-副词)。此处用副词修饰谓语动词soared,主干意为“三丽鸥(Sanrio)的销量几乎立即暴涨”。

答案解析
▶
答案是sent。该题考查非谓语动词(ed)。在句中,sent作为过去分词修饰"the youngest astronauts"(相当于定语从句who were sent…),表示“被送往太空轨道前哨的最年轻宇航员”。
答案是of。该题考查介词。短语consist of是固定用法,表示“包含”。
答案是who。该题考查从句引导词。此处,who引导的定语从句修饰“the astronauts”,who指代前面的“宇航员”,表示“那些在过去六个月中生活在天宫空间站的宇航员”。
答案是to stay。该题考查非谓语动词(to do)。在expect sb to do sth 结构中to stay作目的状语,表示计划性。句意:“预计将停留直到明年四月或五月”。
答案是went。该题考查谓语动词时态。从时间状语2022年可以看出,此处谓语动词需要用过去式。
答案是rigorously。该题考查词性转换(形容词-副词)。此处用副词rigorously修饰动词“expanded”,表示“严谨缜密地扩展”。
答案是global。该题考查词性转换(名词-形容词)。这里global作为形容词修饰名词“leader”,表示“全球领导者”(具有世界领先水平)。
答案是world’s。该题考查名词所有格。这里使用名词的所有格形式(world’s)来修饰名词nations, 表示“世界领先水平的太空技术国家”。
答案是and。该题考查连词。and表示并列关系。句子中的两个动作“建设空间站”和“将宇航员送往空间站”是逻辑上的并列或者递进关系。
答案是the。该题考查冠词。序数词前固定使用冠词the。句意:“仅次于美国的第二个国家”。

答案解析
▶
答案是to visit。该题考查非谓语动词to do。短语be due to do表示将要做某事。to do 表示计划性。
答案是survivors。该题考查名词复数。可数名词survivor的意思是“幸存者”,复数直接加s。
答案是Spain’s。该题考查名词所有格。Spain’s worst such disaster in decades表示西班牙过去几十年间最严重的洪灾。Spain和名词disaster之间是所属关系。
答案是where。该题考查从句引导词。此处定语从句的先行词是地点,从句中缺地点状语(in the region)应当用where引导从句(作地点状语)。
答案是worst。该题考查形容词最高级。从句中的in the recent history可以看出此处表达的意思是“最严重的自然灾害”,形容词bad应该使用最高级。
答案是second。该题考查数词转换(基数词-序数词)。根据句意“这是本世纪欧洲第二致命的洪水”此处应该使用序数词。
答案是for。该题考查介词。名词request这里是“请求”的意思,固定搭配“a/the request for sth 请求得到某物”。
答案是response。该题考查词性转换(动词-名词)。根据句意“灾民们抱怨政府部门对洪水灾害的响应不够及时”,这里要填respond的名词形式response。“a/the response to…”意为“对…做出反应”
答案是effectively。该题考查词性转换(形容词-副词)。此处,修饰carry out这个动词词组应该使用副词。
答案是damaged。该题考查非谓语动词(ed)。首先,逗号前面的With telephone and transport networks…是原因状语,不是完整的句子,damage不是谓语动词(不能填入be damaged)。另外,damage和逻辑主语telephone and transport networks的关系是被动关系(被损坏)。因此填入damaged。全句句意:“由于电话和交通网络严重受损,很难确定准确的失踪人数。”
