分析 作者在本文中讲到人是喜欢群居的动物,语言是人与人之间的胶合剂.在所有的动物当中,人类是最聪明的,人类能够选择自己的生存环境和生存方式.本文主要说明人需要与人合作的原因和好处.
解答 61.that/which;考查关系代词.这是一个定语从句,先行词为the"cement,故用关系代词that/which,在从句中作主语.
62.means;考查动词.根据语境应用一般现在时,主语是culture,应用谓语动词的单数第三人称形式.故填means.
63.particular;考查形容词.此处需要修饰的是名词group.故用形容词形式particular.
64.and;考查连词用法.根据前后句的关系判断这是一个并列句,所以要用并列连词and.
65.are raised;考查动词的时态和语态.根据语境应用一般现在时,you是raise的动作承受者,"养育".故填are raised.
66.situations;考查名词.根据空前的various各种各样的,此处应用名词的名词复数形式.故填situations.
67.cleverest/most clever;考查形容词的最高级.根据空前的of短语,表示范围,可知此处要用形容词的最高级.故填cleverest/most clever.
68.to live;考查动词不定式.choose后跟不定式,choose to do意为"选择做某事",故填to live.
69.themselves;考查代词用法.根据前文的主语they判断填反身代词themselves.
70.is;考查主谓一致.该句的主语是acquiring短语做主语,所以谓语动词用单数第三人称,故填is.
