15.No one knows exactly how the earth began.However,according to a (66)widely(wide) accepted theory,the universe began with a"Big Bang",(67)whichthrew matter in all directions.Long after the"Big Bang",the earth became so violent that (68)itwas not clear whether the shape would last or not.(69)Whatis even more important is(70)thatas the earth cooled down,water began to appear on its surface.Many scientists believe that water allowed the earth to dissolve harmful gases and acids.Many years later,the first small plants began to appear on the surface of the water.They filled the oceans and seas with oxygen,which (71)encouraged (encourage) the later development of early shellfish and all sorts of fish.Next,green plants began to grow on land.They were followed (72)intime by land animals.65 million years ago,the age of the dinosaurs ended.Why they suddenly disappeared still remains(73)a mystery.This(74)disappearance(appear) made it possible for the mammals (75)to rise(rise) on the earth.These animals were different from all life forms in the past,because they gave birth to young baby animals and produced milk to feed them.
分析 没有人确切地知道地球是如何产生的,根据宇宙大爆炸的理论,宇宙大爆炸之前地球不过是一片尘埃.后来尘埃形成了一个坚实的地球,火和岩石爆炸,产生二氧化碳,氮,水蒸气和其他气体,构成了地球的大气层,随后出现了生物.然而,不断排放的过量的二氧化碳使得地球越来越热,最后生物能否继续在地球上生存还依赖于这个问题能否得到解决.
解答 66.widely;考查副词,这里用副词作状语,修饰形容词accepted.
67.which;考查关系代词,分析句子可知这是一个非限制性定语从句,关系代词which指代前一句提到的事情.
68.it;考查代词,it在句中做形式主语,真正的主语是后面的从句 whether the shape would last or not.
69.What;考查名词性从句,分析句子结构可知这是一个主语从句,疑问代词what从句主语.
70.that; 考查名词性从句,此处用that引导一个表语从句.
71.encouraged;考查动词的时态,根据前面的主句的动词时态filled可知此处定语从句也要用一般过去时encouraged.
72.in;考查介词,in time 是固定短语,意为"及时".
73.a;考查冠词,mystery是可数名词,前面用不定冠词a表示泛指.
74.disappearance;考查名词,此处用名词形式在句中作主语.
75.to rise;考查动词的不定式,这里用不定式短语在句子中作动词made的真正宾语.
点评 首先要通读全文,了解大意,抓住上下文语境所提供的信息,仔细分析带空格的句子,明确空格所要填的词义,词型和短语搭配给出所要填的正确形式,然后整体阅读短文,核对答案
