题目内容
【题目】 If you are planning a trip to France in the future, you should be careful with the roads you take because some of them are very strange. Today we're going to talk about the Passage du Gois(格伊斯通道).
The passage du Gois in France is natural. People didn't notice the passage because it periodically(周期性的)flooded. It was f 【1】discovered by some local people in 1701. It connects the mainland France and a small island called Noirmoutier(努瓦尔穆捷岛). Now many people visit the passage every day. Some of them risk driving on it and others are just interested in watching it d 【2】under the water and come up from the water again. People can drive on the passage half an hour before and after low tide(潮汐). The passage can also be reached only d【3】low tide which lasts about one hour.
Driving on the passage can be dangerous. Some drivers are caught in the tide because they drive at the w【4】time. Besides, as the passage is covered with water for most of the day, it is slippery all the time.
To ensure the s【5】of drivers and tourists, signs are put on both ends of the passage to tell people whether the passage is passable(可通过的)or not. There are also p【6】which are set at intervals(每隔一段距离)along the passage for people to climb up when they get into trouble in the water. People are warned to drive slowly and make no stops on the passage. Also, they are not allowed to p【7】their cars on the passage.
So are you also interested in the passage? Come to France and have a challenge!

【解析】
文章大意:本文主要讲述格伊斯通道,它非常奇怪。它会周期性被水淹没。
【1】句意:它最早是在1701年被一些当地人发现的。
考查序数词。根据语境:1701年,一些当地人首次发现了它,首次是first,故答案填first。
【2】句意:他们中的一些人冒着驾驶它的风险,而另一些人则只是想看着它消失在水下,再次从水里上来。
根据所给空后面and come up from the water again“然后从水里出来”可知是消失,根据watch sb do所以要用动词原形,故答案填disappear。
【3】句意:只有在大约一小时的低潮期才能到达航道。
根据语境:该通道也只能在持续约一小时的低潮期间到达.在..期间是“during”,故答案填during。
【4】句意:在通道上开车可能很危险。有些司机因为开车时间不对而被潮水困住了。
根据前句Some drivers are caught in the tide“一些司机遭遇潮水”因为在错误的时间里,故答案填wrong。
【5】句意:为了保证司机和游客的安全,在通道的两端设置标志,告诉人们通道是否可以通行。
根据the _of可知空缺处需要填入名词,由后面to tell people whether the passage is passable(可通过的)or not“告诉人们通道是否通行”可知填入安全,故答案填safety。
【6】句意:此外,在通道沿线每隔一段设置有电线杆,人们在水中遇到麻烦时可以爬上去。
根据along the passage for people to climb up when they get into trouble in the water“当他们处于困境时,为了让人们攀爬”可知,应该是“柱子,杆”,前面有There are可知用复数形式,故答案填poles。
【7】句意:而且,他们不允许把车停在通道上。
根据固定搭配allow to do sth“允许做某事”,可知,需要填入动词原形,由前句People are warned to drive slowly and make no stops on the passage,“人们被警告要开慢点,不要在通道上停车”可知这里不允许停车,故答案填park。
