18.The giant panda loves bamboo.An adult panda requires 12.5 kilograms of bamboo,which it (56)hungrily(hungry) pulls out with its powerful paws,to satisfy its daily needs.Wild pandas live only in the high bamboo forests of Central China.These mountain forests are cool and wet--just as pandas like it.In the summer,they may climb as high as 4000 meters to help themselves to bamboo (57)growing(grow) at higher altitudes.Frequently,pandas (58)are seen(see) eating in a relaxed sitting position,with their back legs stretched out before them.(59)Although/Though/Whilethey may appear inactive,they are in fact skilled tree-climbers and efficient swimmers.Giant pandas are unsociable.They have a highly developed sense of smell that males use (60)to avoid(avoid) each other and to find females for mating in the spring.After a five-month pregnancy,a female gives birth (61)toa cub.The blind baby pandas weigh only 142 grams and cannot crawl(爬行) (62)until/before they reach three months of age.(63)They are born white,and develop their much loved coloring later.
There are only about 1000 giant pandas left in (64)The wild,with perhaps another 100 in zoos.Because they are so rare,much of (65)whatwe know about pandas comes from studying these zoo animals.

解答 56.hungrily 57.growing 58.are seen 59.Although/Though/While 60.to avoid 61.to 62.until/before 63.They 64.The 65.what
56.hungrily 本题考查副词.空格处修饰后面的动词词组 pull out,意为"饥饿地拔下来",修饰动词应使用 hungry 的副词形式 hungrily.故正确答案为 hungrily.
57.growing 本题考查非谓语动词.分析句子结构可知,此处 _____ at higher altitude 作 bamboo 的后置定语,意为"生长在高海拔的竹子",由于句中已经有谓语动词,此处要使用动词的非谓语形式.bamboo 和 grow 为逻辑上的主谓关系,且此处描述的是客观事实,应使用现在分词表主动语态.故正确答案为 growing.
58.are seen 本题考查被动语态.此处 pandas 为主语且为复数形式,see 和 pandas 为逻辑上的动宾关系,故应使用被动语态,且 be 动词应使用复数形式.此处表达"熊猫常常被看到在很放松地坐着吃东西".故正确答案为 are seen.
59.Although/Though/While 本题考查让步状语从句.该空后的"they may appear inactive"意为"它们会看起来缺乏活力",后半句"they are in fact skilled tree-climbers and efficient swimmers"意为"事实上它们是爬树能手和游泳健将",前后语义上存在转折关系.由此可推断前半句应为让步状语从句.Although/Though/While 均可置于句首引导让步状语从句.故正确答案为 Although/Though/While.
60.to avoid 本题考查非谓语动词.分析句子可知,that males use _____ each other and to find females for mating in the spring 为定语从句用来修饰先行词 sense of smell.从句表达"雄性熊猫利用高度灵敏的嗅觉来避开彼此",语意上为表达利用嗅觉的目的,应使用不定式作目的状语.故正确答案为 to avoid.
61.to 本题考查固定搭配.give birth to…为固定搭配,意为"生下…",此处表达"五月个孕期后,雌熊猫会生下一只幼崽".故正确答案为 to.
62.until/before 本题考查时间状语从句.此处表达"熊猫宝宝三个月时才会爬行",not…until…意为"直到…才…",符合文意,强调 crawl 发生在三个月起.此处亦可表达"在熊猫宝宝三个月前都无法爬行",用 before 亦可,强调的是时间先后关系的这个事实.故正确答案为 until/before.
63.They 本题考查代词.空格处缺少句子的主语,此处指代的是前面提到的 baby pandas,表达"熊猫宝宝生下来的时候是白色的",故使用第三人称代词主格的复数形式 they.故正确答案为 They.
64.The 本题考查冠词.in the wild 为固定搭配,意为"在野外",必须使用定冠词 the.故正确答案为 the.
65.what 本题考查宾语从句.分析句子可知,此处为主从复合句,主句中的主语为 much of _____ we know about pandas,表达"大多数我们知道的关于熊猫的…".of 为介词,其后为从句,应为 of 的宾语从句,从句中缺少 know 的宾语,且指代"我们所知道的内容",应使用 what 作引导词.故正确答案为 what.
