解答 61.to 考查介词.去某地用介词to+地点.去加拿大的旅游,所以填to.
62.rather 考查固定短语.rather than是固定搭配"而不是",根据句意:他们决定乘火车而不是乘飞机.
63.surrounded 考查非谓语.句意:被群山环抱.city与surround之间是被动关系,所以用过去分词在句中做定语.
64.settled 考查谓语动词.本文的叙述用的都是过去时,settle down是英语的固定搭配"安顿下来",所以答案填settled.
65.sight 考查固定短语.catch sight of看见,句意:他们设法可见了山羊.
66.measuring 考查非谓语.此处用现在分词在句中做定语,修饰some trees,trees与measure之间是主谓关系,所以用现在分词做定语.
67.to compete 考查固定短语. come tocome to do do=来干(从事).某事.根据句:来自世界各地的牛仔前来参加比赛.用come to compete.
68.gift/talent 考查固定短语.句意:他们中的许多人都有骑野马的天赋.have a gift/talent for"具有…的天赋".
69.what 考查宾语从句.在宾语从句was called a wheat-growing province中缺少宾语及被动语态的主语,所以用what来引导.
70.later 考查固定短语.两天之后英文表达是的"two days later".

Neuroscientists,experts who study the nervous system,are increasingly showing that there's actually a lot that can be done.It (46)A out that the brain needs exercise in much the same way our muscles do,and the right mental (47)C can significantly improve our basic cognitive(认知)(48)B.Thinking is basically a (49)Dof making connections in the brain.To a certain extent,our ability to (50)C in making the connections is inherited(继承). (51)D,because these connections are made through effort and practice,scientists believe that intelligence can expand and wave (52)Amental effort.

In dictionaries the word"difficult"is (42)C as"not easily or readily done; requiring much labor or planning to be performed successfully."This definition gets to the point of the problem when it comes to math.What makes math difficult is that it takes patience and (43)G.For many students,math is not something that comes automatically.It takes effort.It is a subject that sometimes requires students to (44)A lots and lots of time and energy.
This means,for many,the problem has little to do with brain power; it is mostly a matter of staying power.And since students don't make their own timelines,they can run out of the time as the teacher moves on the next topic.
Scientists believe that people (45)I different math understanding sills.Logical and left-brain thinkers tend to understand things in a different way in which intuitive and right-brainers do.They (46)H a lot of information at one time and allow time to let it"sink in".So left-brain students may grasp concepts quickly while right-brain students don't.To those right brain student,time loss can make them feel (47)J and behind.Unfortunately in busy classrooms with too many students,students are not always blessed with enough time.We have to move on,ready or not.
Math know-how is also snowballing,which means it works much like a pile of building blocks.You have to gain enough blocks in one area before you can effectively go on to"build upon"another area.Our first mathematical building blocks are established in primary school,when we learn rules and (48)B for addition and multiplication,and those first concepts become our (49)D.These mathematical concepts or knowledge has to sink in and become firm before students can move on to challenge the next stage of new concepts.However,teachers don't have time to ensure that every single student understands every single concept.So some students move to the next level with really shaky knowledge system.As a result,as they climb the ladder,they may meet with more and more difficulties and might (50)F painful failures at some point.
