【解析】
试题分析:本文是一篇记叙文,文章讲述火星“漫游者”Curiosity的故事。
【1】hopefully 考查副词。hopefully表示“有希望地”,作状语。故填hopefully。
【2】named 考查非谓语动词。过去分词named在句中作定语,修饰“the Mars rover”,此处表示“一个名叫Curiosity的火星漫游者”。故填named。
【3】if/whether 考查名词性从句。根据语境可知,这里应该是一个由whether引导的宾语从句。故填whether。
【4】where 考查定语从句关系词。The place作先行词,在后面的定语从句中作地点状语,故填where。
【5】was 考查时态。句意:科学家认为那里曾经有水甚至生命。表示过去的状态用一般过去时态,故填was。
【6】useful 考查形容词。形容词修饰名词,故填useful。
【7】its 考查物主代词。own前面用形容词性物主代词,根据主语it可知填its。
【8】is made 考查动词时态与语态。be made up of是固定搭配,意为“由……组成”。根据语境可知此处应用一般现在时的被动语态。故填is made。
【9】With 考查介词。with the help of...表示“在……的帮助下”。故填With。
【10】collecting 考查非谓语动词。根据与主语it是主动关系,故此处用现在分词表伴随状态,故填collecting。
【知识归纳】
with the help of在……的帮助下;with the development of随着……的发展
