解答 1.built 考查非谓语动词."___by the Pueblo Indians of theAmerican Southwest"是定语,修饰the adobe dwellings,theadobe dwellings和build之间是被动关系,故用过去分词作定语.
2.the 考查定冠词.mostmodern是最高级,最高级前要加定冠词the.
3.ability 考查名词.their是形容词性物主代词,修饰名词.故该空要填名词ability.
4.using 考查非谓语动词.without是介词,后面跟动名词作宾语.
5.slowly 考查副词.修饰动词heat,用副词.
6.to cool 考查非谓语动词."sb./sth.be+adj.+enough+to do sth."是固定句式,意为"某人/某物足够做某事".故该空要填tocool.
7.at 考查介词."at the same time"意为"与此同时",是固定短语.
8.goes 考查主谓一致和时态.结合上下文语境可知,该句是对这种自行车的介绍,故要用一般现在时.且主语为thisbicycle(第三人称单数),根据主谓一致原则,该空要填goes.
9.natural 考查形容词.修饰名词architects,要用形容词.
10.how 考查名词性从句.句意:美国西南部印第安人们清楚土胚墙需要多么厚才能最好地保证房内冷热的循环."____thickthe adobe walls needed to be to make the cycle work on most days"是figureout的宾语从句.由句意可知,该从句要用how引导.how修饰形容词thick,意为"多么".
