【解析】
这是一篇说明文。澳大利亚的森林大火在2020年1月变得更加严重,同时火灾产生的烟雾又引发了火灾龙卷风。文章说明了这次大火对澳大利亚的破坏和影响。
【1】考查冠词。country为可数名词,此处特指上文Australia,应用定冠词。故填the。
【2】考查动词时态。根据后文and some smoke turned into pyro cumulonimbus clouds.可知,此处应用一般过去时,主语与谓语动词构成主动关系。故填sent。
【3】考查非谓语动词。分析句子成分可知,result在句中作非谓语动词,且与逻辑主语clouds构成主动关系,故应用现在分词。故填resulting。
【4】考查动词时态及语态。本句主语animals与谓语动词构成被动关系,且描述客观事实应用一般现在时,主语为复数名词,谓语动词应用复数。故填are found。
【5】考查介词。句意:要完全了解火灾对野生动物造成了多大的伤害还需要时间。结合句意表示“对于”应用介词to。故填to。
【6】考查非谓语动词。根据短语be expected to do sth.表示“被期望做某事”,后跟不定式。故填to continue。
【7】考查副词。修饰动词happen,应用副词regularly,表示“频繁地”。故填regularly。
【8】考查比较级。句意:然而,气候和自然变化使情况变得更糟。结合句意表示“更遭”应用比较级形式。故填worse。
【9】考查代词。根据短语make it to表示“到达”。故填it。
【10】考查定语从句。句意:烟雾如此之多,可能会在空气中停留数月之久,这可能会对地球的气候产生很小的影响。此处为非限定性定语从句,修饰上文整个句子,且从句中缺少主语,故用关系代词which。故填which。
定语从句中的关系词选择,可考虑以下几点:
1、看清楚先行词的意义,就是理清先行词是指人、指物、时间、地点、原因。指物时不能用who或whom,指人时通常不用which等等。
2、看清楚关系词的句法功能,就是理清关系词是担任什么句子成分,是作主语还是宾语、是作定语还是状语等等。作定语通常用whose,有时也用which。作状语要用when, where, why。
3、看清楚定语从句的种类,就是理清是限制性定语从句还是非限制性定语从句。that、why通常不引导非限制性定语从句。
4、看清楚文体,就是理清是正式文体,还是非正式文体。是书面语体还是口语体。
如第10小题,句意:烟雾如此之多,可能会在空气中停留数月之久,这可能会对地球的气候产生很小的影响。此处为非限定性定语从句,修饰上文整个句子,且从句中缺少主语,故用关系代词which。故填which。
