【1】考查连词。句中形容词necessary和 important是并列关系,肯定句中,用并列连词and,故填and。
【2】考查非谓语动词。spent(spend)时间/钱doing sth. 花时间/钱做某事,固定搭配,所以要用动词的-ing形式,故填building。
【3】考查名词。devoted to中to为介词,后面跟名词,所以要填protect的名词形式,故填protection。
【4】考查非谓语动词。be determined to do sth.决心做某事,固定用法,was determined后跟动词不定式,故填to continue。
【5】考查定语从句。定语从句中先行词是the money,指物,关系代词在定语从句中做主语,故填which/that。
【6】考查冠词。句中public用作名词时表示“公众,民众”,是集合名词,常与定冠词the连用,the public公众,民众,固定用法,故填the。
【7】考查时态。前面的状语从句用Ever since引导,主句要用完成时,主句的动词的动作对现在有影响,所以用现在完成时,主语是I,第一人称单数,故填have attracted。
【8】考查名词复数。passer-by为合成名词,可数,前面的many提示名词要用复数,合成名词的复数是以主要的名词变复数来表示,故填passers-by。
【9】考查形容词。句子为系表结构,形容词作表语,主语为I,指人,所以要用ed结尾的形容词,故填shocked。
【10】考查形容词比较级。由填空词后的than ever,可知是两种情况的比较:现在和以前,所以要用形容词的比较级,故填nicer。
