7.Are you facing a situation that looks impossible to fix?In 1969,the pollution was terrible along the Cuyahoga River near Cleveland,Ohio.It (61)was(be) unimaginable that it could ever be cleaned up.The river was so polluted that it(62)actually(actual) caught fire and burned.Now,years later,this river is one of (63)the most outstanding examples of environmental cleanup.
But the river wasn't changed in a few days(64)or even a few months.It took years of work(65)to reduce (reduce) the industrial pollution and clean the water.Finally,that hard work paid off and now the water in the river is(66)cleaner (clean) than ever.
Maybe you are facing an impossible situation.Maybe you have a habit(67)that/which is driving your family crazy.Possibly you drink too much or don't know how to control your credit card use.When you face such an impossible situation,don't you want a quick fix and something to change immediately?
While there are (68)amazing (amaze) stories of instant transformation,for most of us the(69)changes(change) are gradual and require a lot of effort and work,like cleaning up a polluted river.Just be(70)patient (patience).
分析 本文是一篇议论文,通过借用凯霍加河以前污染非常严重,经过多年的努力,艰苦的工作终于有了回报,河水变干净了的事实告诉我们:当你面对看起来不可能解决的事情时,要敢于想办法慢慢解决,不能急躁,因为很多变化都是逐渐发生的,需要很多努力,我们需要耐心一点.
解答 1.was 考查动词过去时态和主谓一致.根据本段第一句In 1969,the pollution wasterrible along the Cuyahoga River near Cleveland,Ohio.可知,本段叙述的是过去发生的事情.the CuyahogaRiver near Cleveland,Ohio在过去被污染地如此地严重,所以说过去没有人能够想象到这条河被清理干净.又主语"It"为三单,故填was.
2.actually 考查副词用法.本句中使用副词actually做状语修饰谓语动词caught fire,actual是形容词,不能在句中做状语,通常只做定语或者表语修饰名词.故填actually.
3.the 考查冠词.横线后是形容词最高级most outstanding,形容词最高级前要加the,故填the.
4.or 考查连词.从语境可知这条河流的改变不是几天或者几个月的事情.本句中的or"或者"表示选择的意思.故填or.
5.to reduce 考查固定句式.固定句式:It takes sb sth to do sth某人做某事花了多少时间;句中的不定式to reducethe industrial pollution and clean the water是句子真正的主语.前面的it是形式主语.故填to reduce.
6.cleaner 考查形容词比较级.横线后面有than,说明横线上应该使用比较级的形式.故填cleaner.
7.which/that 考查定语从句.本句是一个定语从句,先行词是a habit,定语从句中使用关系代词that/which指代先行词,在句做主语,不能省略.故填which/that.
8.amazing 考查形容词不同形式用法.小技巧:凡是-ed结尾的都是形容人的,表示"人感到…",-ing结尾都是形容物的,表示"令人感到…".此处修饰"stories 故事",所以要用amazing.故填amazing.
9.changes 考查名词复数.横线后面是系动词are,说明横线处主语应该是一个复数形式的名词,所以用changes.故填changes.change既可以作名词也可以作动词,在此为名词.
10.patient 考查形容词.横线前面有系动词be,说明此处应用形容词,本句是一个祈使句be patient耐心一点.patient形容词,意为"耐心的"; patience名词,意为"耐心".故填patient.
