33、转换。句意:共同努力总是效率更高。effort是名词,需用形容词修饰。2.accomplishment考查词性转换。句意:中国是第三个能把月球土壤带回地球的国家,这是一个了不起的成就。根据an amazing可知此处应用名词,accomplish是动词,其名词为accomplishment。3.to attend考查非谓语动词。句意:有些人不愿意来上这些课,部分原因是所需的费用问题。be unwilling to do sth.不愿意做某事。4.enjoyable;educational考查形容词。句意:教职员要确保孩子们度过愉快的、有教育意义的一天。根据an和day可知,此处两个空修饰名词d

34、ay,故用形容词。enjoyable愉快的;educational有教育意义的。5.convenient考查形容词。句意:我过去常写信与我的朋友联络,而现在有了互联网就更方便了。根据is及语境可知此处应用形容词,故填convenient。6.Roughly考查词性转换。句意:粗略地说,关于这个话题我们一周能收到大约50封信。roughly speaking粗略地说。7.attractive考查形容词。句意:让我和我的祖国这部电影如此吸引人的是壮观的场景和感人的情节。makes是动词,the film My People, My Country是宾语,此处是作宾语补足语,表示“吸引人的”,用形容

43、t(更有趣的是巨石阵是如何被建造的)承接上文,符合语境,故选G。2.D根据空前“It is in the middle of a field. My arrival at Stonehenge was by car.”可知巨石阵在田野的中央,作者是乘汽车到达巨石阵的。此处提到了交通方式by car。D项This was probably the easiest way to get there(这可能是到达那里最简单的方法)符合语境,故选D。3.A根据空前“The museum exhibits describing Stonehenge history are in this buildin

44、g as well.”(描述巨石阵历史的博物馆展品也在这座建筑里。)以及空后“Then you will know the historical background to Stonehenge.”(然后你会了解巨石阵的历史背景。)可知A项 I suggest going through it first(我建议你先浏览那儿)符合语境,表示看完那里后就对巨石阵的历史背景有了了解,故选A。4.F根据空后“Its hard to believe that the stones were brought from Waleshundreds of miles away.”(很难相信这些石头是从几百英

45、里外的威尔士运来的。)可知F项Once you start viewing the stones, you will realize how big they are(一旦你开始观察这些石头,你就会意识到它们有多大)符合语境,石头很大,所以从很远的地方搬来令人难以相信。故选F。5.C根据空后“And the structure that is kept now is only a piece of the original structure.”(现在保留的结构只是原始结构的一部分。)可知C项As time passes, many stones have fallen(随着时间的流逝,许多石

46、头都倒了)与空后是因果关系,符合语境,故选C。【高频词汇】1.structure n.建筑物;结构2.arrival n.到达 3.exhibit n.展览品 v.展览4.view v.观看5.board v.上(车、船等)6.realize v.意识到原句Visiting the stones is quite a magical and enjoyable experience as you are viewing a piece of history that is over 5, 000 years old.分析本句是一个主从复合句。主句的主语是Visiting the stones,as引导原因状语从句,其中that引导定语从句,修饰先行词history。句意参观这些石头是一个相当神奇和愉快的经历,因为你正在观看一段超过5,000年的历史。
