【解析】

本文是一篇说明文,介绍了葡萄干的悠久历史以及制作过程。

1句意:它们是已被广泛食用数千年的葡萄干。本句缺少副词做状语,修饰动词,根据句意以及首字母提示可知,答案为widely。

2句意:大约在3500年前,最早发现的葡萄干是在阳光下的藤蔓上晒干的。主语the first raisins,与后面的动词构成被动关系,因此本空格应该使用过去分词构成被动语态,答案为discovered。

3句意:欧洲人拿葡萄干入药甚至把它当成货币形式流通。不定冠词a修饰可数名词单数of构成所有格,故答案为form。

4句意:在1873年的一场热带风暴袭击毁灭了加利福尼亚的珍贵葡萄园,只留下了干燥而美味的葡萄干后,在美国开始随处可见到葡萄干的影子。冠词an修饰名词,并且是可数名词单数形式。heat wave热带风暴,答案为heat。

5句意:不久之后,一些农民开始在加州发展无籽葡萄。some修饰可数名词复数,也可以修饰不可数名词;谓语began developing...表明本空缺名词做主语。答案为farmers。

6句意:这些葡萄将会在阳光下被晒干,成为广受欢迎的黑葡萄干。be动词后跟形容词、副词、分词等做表语。此处是被动语态,缺少过去分词,故答案为dried。

7句意:它使得人们不得不使用一些化学物质和特殊的方法来处理它们。to是不定式的标志,后跟动词原形。结合句意可知,答案为process。

8句意:直到现在,中部的加利福尼亚依然是世界的葡萄干生产基地中心。前面是名词,后面是名词,缺谓语动词,此处要用动词三单形式,答案为remains。

9句意:世界95%的葡萄干依然是加利福尼亚生产。can是情态动词,后跟动词原形。答案为produce。

10句意:它(加利福尼亚)的阳光明媚的气候和高温提供了完美的条件下可被晒成葡萄干的葡萄。空格后是由and连接的并列主语,其谓语为provide,所以本空格应该是个形容词词性的物主代词。答案为Its。

短文填空重点考查单词拼写以及单词语法填空等,是把单词放到语篇中去检测,考查的是学生的综合理解能力以及对知识的灵活运用能力,是比较难的一种考试题型。做这类题时,学生不仅要理解短文大意,还要具体把握每个单句的意思,根据句意去判断所要填入的单词,以及是否要发生变化。如第2小题考查的是过去分词,第5小题考查的是名词的复数形式,考生在做这类试题时一定要谨慎。
