【解析】随着经济的发展,普通话在全球范围内越来越重要。文章以英国为例说明了学习普通话的人越来越多。
【1】useful 考查形容词。此处是形容词作定语修饰名词,句意:普通话是最有用的非欧洲语言。
【2】to 考查介词。此处介词to的意思为“到,去”。句意:百分之五十六的家长感觉这将打开孩子的思想到一个有趣的、活跃的文化中。
【3】which 考查引导词。___3___were both picked by 14% of parents.本句在整个句子中是一个定语从句,非限定性定语从句用which指代前面的事物,注意这里不能用who,Arabic and Japanese指的是“阿拉伯语和汉语”,故用which才正确。
【4】were 考查be动词。本句中after后为一个从句,在从句中是被动语态且主语为复数,根据前面用过去时,故此处也用一般过去时,故用were。
【5】conducted 考查非谓语动词。此处动词为非谓语,与逻辑主语survey之间是被动的关系,故用conducted。
【6】to learn 考查动词不定式。此处动词不定式表目的,句意:法语,西班牙语,德语是英国孩子去学习的三个主要的选择。
【7】becoming 考查with的复合结构。with的复合结构中become与逻辑主语之间是主动的关系,故用becoming。
【8】languages 考查名词。在短语one of...中后面的名词用复数形式。
【9】successfully 考查副词。此处为副词修饰动词。
【10】a 考查冠词。横线处后面为可数名词,此处用不定冠词来修饰名词,表示泛指。故用a。
