分析 本文主要介绍了到加拿大旅游的女孩们在加拿大的所见所闻;如文中提到了:加拿大地域空旷,人口相对稀少;介绍了位于五大湖区顶端的繁忙的港口城市桑德贝;加拿大拥有的淡水量比世界上其他任何一个国家都要多等;另外,文中还提到了她们的旅游线路.
解答 答案:
61.had learned 考查时态 根据前一句中的"began"使用了一般过去时可知,此处表示发生在过去(女孩们开始意识到加拿大很空旷)之前的动作,应使用过去完成时;故用had learned.
62.kilometres 考查名词的单复数 此处指的是:几百公里;故用复数名词kilometers.
63.slightly 考查副词 此处用来修饰介词短语over thirty million;故用副词slightly.
64.to see 考查固定短语 be amazed to do sth.意为:做某事感到吃惊;故用to see.
65.an 考查不定冠词 此处表示泛指:某一城区,由于urban首字母的发音为元音/?:/;故用不定冠词an.
66.at 考查介词 at the top of"在…顶上",at 表示点,边缘; on (the) top of"在…之上、在…上面",on表示面上的接触,此处指的是:位于五大湖区顶端的繁忙的港口城市桑德贝;故用介词at.
67.surprised 考查由过去分词转化来的形容词 此处在句中作表语,用来说明主语The girls (指人)的情况,故用surprised.
68.that 考查同位语从句 本句为同位语从句,故不能省略名词the fact之后的连词 that;故用that.
69.it 考查人称代词 此处在句中作主语,指代的是Canada,故用人称代词it.
70.slept 考查时态 此处在句中作谓语,根据上文以及时间状语That night 可知,此处讲述的是女孩们在加拿大旅游时的那天晚上发生的动作,所以这里应使用一般过去时,故用slept.
