【解析】
本文是一篇说明文,介绍了“一带一路”沿线国家的接力赛跑让人们了解“一带一路”倡议的发展情况。
【1】考查名词。句意:他跑了32公里以示庆祝。作介词in的宾语用名词,故填celebration。
【2】考查不定式。句意:在乌干达渣打银行工作的坎布古是世界各地逾8.6万名员工中的一员,他们试图参加“一带一路”沿线国家的接力活动,以了解“一带一路”倡议的发展情况。attempt to do表示“试图去做”,故填to take。
【3】考查非限定性定语从句。句意:坎布古和渣打银行全球办公室的另外7名同事参观了“一带一路”沿线的44个目的地,这帮助他们更好地理解这一倡议。此处为非限定性定语从句,关系词指代整个主句内容并在从句中作主语,故填which。
【4】考查时态。句意:坎布古见证了“一带一路”倡议迄今如何让东非人民的生活变得更好。此处强调过去的动作对现在的影响,根据so far可知应该用现在完成时,故填has witnessed。
【5】考查定冠词。句意同上,change…for the better表示“让……变得更好”,故填the。
【6】考查主语从句。句意:香港办事处的梁淑芬说,她一路上所看到的景象给她留下了深刻的印象。此处为主语从句,从句中的seen缺少宾语,故填what。
【7】考查代词。句意同上,作动词impressed的宾语用宾格形式,故填her。
【8】考查副词比较级。句意:他们的普通话说得比有些香港人还流利。“than”表明此处用副词比较级形式,故填more fluently。
【9】考查非谓语动词。句意:在她看来,参与“一带一路”倡议的国家就像赛跑者一样。countries 与participate之间是逻辑上的主谓关系,表示主动,用现在分词作后置定语,故填participating。
【10】考查名词复数。句意同上,runner是可数名词,此处用复数表示泛指,故填runners。
