49、的动作，因此用一般现在时；句子的主语the rest与make之间是逻辑上的动宾关系，因此用被动语态；主语the rest表示“其余的”，此处指代的是the rest of grapes，谓语动词应该用复数形式。故填are made。4. to考查固定短语。thanks to表示“多亏了，由于”，符合题意。故填to。5. that/which考查定语从句关系词。分析句子结构可知，“5. _ results from being surrounded by the desert”是定语从句，先行词是the hot and dry climate，指物，在从句中作主语，因此用that/which引

Bunches考查名词的单复数。bunch是
51、可数名词；根据“glowing white grapes hang on the vines”可知，是很多串葡萄挂在葡萄藤上，因此bunch应用复数形式；短语 bunches of意为“一束束，一串串”。故填Bunches。9. one考查数词。根据后面的“put it in your mouth”中的“it”可知，应该是单数，因此用数词one，表示“一颗(葡萄)”。故填one。10. produced考查过去分词。分析句子结构可知，“10. _ (produce) by the burning sun and the desert wind of southern Xinjiang”是定语；the wonderful taste与produce之间是逻辑上的动宾关系，因此用过去分词作后置定语。故填produced。
