32、res without any distinct major racial or cultural groups.文章大意：本文是一篇说明文，加州是美国的第三大州，本文对加州的基本情况做了简单的介绍。解析：1考查形容词的最高级。句意：加州是美国的第三大州。根据语境可知，此处应用形容词的最高级形式。所以本句要填largest。2考查非谓语动词。句意：第一批来到加州的定居者穿过北极的白令海峡来到美国。由空前的The first settlers可知此处应用不定式作后置定语，所以句中要填to arrive。3考查时态和语态。句意：在18世纪，加州被西班牙人所统治。根据时间状语可知描述的是发生在过去的
33、事情，且表示被动。所以要填was ruled。4考查名词。句意：墨西哥人在1821年脱离西班牙，获得独立。由空前的gained可知应用名词作宾语，所以要填independent的名词形式independence。5考查定语从句。句意：在1848年，在加州发现了黄金，这吸引了全世界的人到这儿来实现他们变得富有的梦想。根据语境并分析句子结构可知，空处引导非限制性定语从句，且指代前面整个主句的内容，所以要填关系代词which。6考查连词。句意：一些人死了或者回家了，但大部分人都留在加州，在新的城镇或农场为自己谋生。根据句意可知上下文是选择关系，所以要填连词or。7考查代词。句意：一些人死了或者回家了
34、，但大部分人都留在加州，在新的城镇或农场为自己谋生。由语境可知，此处指他们自己，要用反身代词表示强调，故应填themselves。8考查介词。句意：在1850年，作为一个多元化的社会，加州成为美国联邦第31个州。根据语境，这里是说“作为一个多元化社会”，应填as，意为“作为”。所以答案为as。9考查非谓语动词。句意：被气候和生活方式吸引，越来越多来自世界各地的人移民到加州，包括亚洲人和非洲人。分析句子结构可知“Asians and Africans”与include是逻辑上的动宾关系，所以要填included。10考查冠词。句意：加州将成为一个很多种族和文化的结合体，没有任何明显的主要种族或文化群体。短语a mixture of.“的结合体”，其中不定冠词a表示泛指。所以要填a。
