【解析】

这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了滑板车作为交通工具的兴起及随之出现的安全问题。

【1】考查从属连词。句意：环顾伦敦的街道，你会看到许多人乘坐不同的交通工具，无论是上下班、购物还是观光。引导让步状语从句，与or连用，用whether，意为无论…。 故填whether。

【2】考查动词时态。句意：滑板车，这种传统的儿童交通工具在过去几年变得越来越复杂。根据 over the past years判断要用现在完成时。故填has become。

【3】考查介词。句意：现在，由于加上一个小电动机，它已经成为一种便宜和方便的运输方式。with介词短语作伴随状语表原因。故填with。

【4】考查副词。句意：滑板运动很有趣，而且不需要费力，在世界各地越来越受欢迎。所填词用来修饰之前动词getting，应用副词形式。故填increasingly。

【5】考查固定句式。句意：有人看到一些骑滑板车的人在人行道上，还有人在马路上闯红灯。固定结构some… others 一些….另一些。故填some。

【6】考查非谓语动词。句意：这让堵在路上的司机更加沮丧。Be stuck in traffic jams, 被困于交通拥堵。所填动词作之前名词motorists的后置定语，为被动关系，故填stuck。

【7】考查动词被动语态。句意：在英国，法律规定禁止在公共公路或人行道上骑自行车。That riding one on the public highway or pavement ___7___ (forbid) 作宾语从句，从句主语为riding one， forbid做谓语动词，为被动关系，应用be done形式，故填is forbidden。

【8】考查名词。句意：现在，面临300英镑罚款和驾照扣6分的骑车人呼吁改变交通规则。所填空作宾语，名词作宾语，且regulation 为可数名词，前无任何修饰成分，故用复数形式。故填regulations。

【9】考查从属连词。句意：不管骑车人有多自信，路上的大车很容易让他们受伤。此处应为让步状语从句，空之后为形容词confident，however+ adj+从句，引导让步状语从句表示不论......。 故填however。

【10】考查固定结构。句意：因此，似乎需要做更多的工作来给电动滑板车一个安全、合法的旅行空间。sth require +V-ing , 意为需要做某事。主动表达被动的用法。故填doing。

whatever, however 等 -ever词都可以引导让步状语从句，意为 “无论…

注意however以下两类句型结构：

① however+主语+谓语：

However you travel, it’ll take you at least three days. 不管你怎么走，至少要三天。

However you come, be sure to come early. 不管你怎么来，一定要早来。

② however+形容词或副词+主语+谓语：

However much he eats, he never gets fat. 无论他吃多少, 他都不发胖。

However cold it is, she always goes swimming. 不管天多冷，她都会去游泳。

有时该结构中的主语和谓语可以有所省略：

He was of some help, however small. 他总能帮些忙，不管多小的忙。

I refuse, however favorable the condition. 不管条件多好，我都不接受

文章较困难题目应为第9小题考查however引导让步状语从句。

___9___ confident the rider may be, larger vehicles on the road make them easily hurt.

此题符合所讲however句型第2种结构however+形容词或副词+主语+谓语。故此空可填however。
