分析 本文主要介绍作者的西安之旅.作者参观古城墙,观看了唐朝歌舞表演及兵马俑.
解答 61.with 考查介词.根据句意:西安是中国带有3100历史的四个古都之一.with意为"有,带有".
62.preserved 考查过去分词.the best与preserve之间是动宾关系,用过去分词短语preserved in the world作定语修饰the best.
63.amazing 考查现在分词.现在分词作表语主要表示主语的性质和特征.
64.where 考查定语从句.分析句子结构可知这是一个定语从句,先行词art gallery指地点,在从句中作地点状语,用关系副词where.
65.their 考查词语用法.make one's way意为"行走,前进",是固定搭配.
66.different 考查固定搭配.no different意为"没什么两样",是固定搭配.
67.remained 考查动词时态.根据句中时间状语until 1974表示过去时间,要用一般过去时态.
68.shops 考查名词复数.plenty of后接可数名词时用复数形式.
69.to leave 考查动词不定式.此处动词不定式to leave作time的定语.
70.a 考查冠词.不定冠词放在序数词前表示表示"又(另)一".
