6.Beware first-class travelers!Passengers sitting in the rear of a plane have the best chance of survival in an event of a crash,an extraordinary and costly aviation(航空,飞行)experiment ever (33)conducted (conduct) has revealed.In a unique aviation experiment recently,the 170-seat-Boeing 727was made(34)to crash (crash) in a controlled manner in a remote part of Mexico's Sonoran Desert.After pilot James Slocum jumped out of the plane at 2,500ft,the jet(35)was guided (guide) into the ground by a pilot in a following Cessna via a remote-control device,the reporters reported.On board of the jet were three advanced crash-test dummies(假人)designedto move (36)like humans.
They were arranged in three positions:one in the classic brace and wearing a seat-belt; one belted but not in the brace position; and one(37)neither belted nor in the brace.After the jet hit the ground nose-first,experts found that the dummy in the brace position would have survived the impact,(38)the one not in the brace would have suffered serious head injuries,and the dummy not wearing a seat-belt would have"died".
Using this,experts predicted that 78percent of passengers on board would have survived the impact,(39)but all the first-class travelers would have died because the front of the fuselage(机身)broke apart when the plane comes down nose first.Those sitting at the back would have had the(40)best (good) chance of survival.
分析 本文属于科普类的短文阅读.主要介绍了一项飞机在飞行过程中发生碰撞时能够极大减少人员伤亡的一个科学实验,并提供了许多具体的事例和理论分析.
解答 33.conducted 34.to crash 35.was guided 36.like 37.neither 38.the 39.but 40.best
33、conducted.考查非谓语之过去分词.分词作定语,修饰experiment,被动关系,用过去分词形式,表示曾经进行过的飞行试验. 故答案为conducted.
34、to crash.考查非谓语动词中的不定式用法.make sb.do sth,使某人做某事,用省略to的不定式作宾补,但是如果换成被动,省略掉的to要还原,即:sb be made to do. 故答案为to crash.
35、was guided.考查动词的被动语态.After引导的时间状语从句,从句缺少谓语单词,且有提示词by a pilot,可知,考查一般过去时的被动语态. 故答案为was guided.
36、like.考查介词的用法.like humans"像人类一样".指的是在飞机的甲板上有三个先进的用于飞行碰撞时的假人,能够像人一样移动;故答案为like.
37、neither.考查并列连词.结合本句的意思及句式结构可知应该使用短语neither…nor 结构.故答案为neither.
38、the.考查定冠词."not in the brace"做后置定语,是特指,名词前面要用the.
39、but.考查并列连词.But连接两个并列句,转折关系.78%的乘客将会幸存,但是所有头等舱的乘客却会丧生. 故答案为but.
40、best.考查形容词的最高级.the+最高级.故答案为best.
点评 语法填空题是考查语篇的理解能力和语言知识的应用能力.解题时,要在理解文章的前提下,充分考虑语境和上下文之间的联系.不要孤立地看一个词或一个空本身,很多答案是可以在文章中找到参考线索的.
