解答 答案:
61.an 考查不定冠词 此处用来修饰单数名词college,表示泛指一所不寻常的大学,应使用不定冠词;由于此处之后的形容词unusual的首字母的发音为元音/?/,故用an.
62.collection 考查固定词组 a collection of意为:一批,许多的,集…为一体的;故用collection.
63.its 考查形容词性的物主代词 此处用来修饰名词library,指代的是:深泉大学的图书馆;故用its.
64.crowded 考查形容词 此处在句中作表语,故用形容词crowded.
65.in 考查固定搭配 believe in意为:信任,信仰;故用in.
66.only 考查句意理解以及副词 根据上一句"他们的工资并不高"可知,本句的意思是:事实上,他们的工资每年只有9000美元左右;此处表示强调,意为:只有,故用副词only.
67.more 考查形容词的比较级 根据句中的连词than可知,此处表示二者(即将学校给予老师与学生的东西与金钱)之间进行的比较,故用形容词important的比较级,故填more.
68.learning/who are learning 考查现在分词或定语从句 此处在句中作后置定语,修饰前面的名词Students;由于动词learn与该名词是主谓关系,表示正在进行的动作,故用现在分词learning;另外,也可以将Students看作是先行词,后接who引导的定语从句,故用who are learning;故答案为:learning/who are learning.
69.to escape 考查动词不定式 此处在句中作后置定语,修饰名词place;意为要逃的地方;故用to escape.
70.completely 考查副词 此处用来修饰形容词different,故用副词 different.
