【解析】
试题分析:本文通过借用凯霍加河在以前污染非常严重,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。
【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 was terrible along the Cuyahoga River near Cleveland, Ohio.可知本段叙述的是过去发生的事情。the Cuyahoga River 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 考查定冠词在最高级中用法。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。
【5】to reduce考查固定句式。固定句式:It takes sb st to do sth某人做某事花了多少时间;句中的不定式to reduce the 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。
