25、housing的住房在美国也越来越受欢迎。gain为及物动词,后跟名词作宾语,表示“流行,受欢迎”。故填popularity。4考查冠词。句意:对许多人来说,这种生活方式是一种缓解忙碌生活压力的手段。此处泛指“一种手段”,应使用不定冠词,means是以辅音音素开头的可数名词,应使用a。故填a。5考查副词。句意:合住社区有私人拥有的房屋和共享的土地。修饰动词own应用副词,表示“私人地”。故填privately。6考查动词时态语态。句意:近年来,大约25个合住社区已经建成,还有150个正在规划中。时间状语in recent years是现在完成时态的标志词,“社区”和“建立”是被动关系,应用现在
26、完成时的被动语态,主语是复数,谓语动词应用复数。故填have been built。7考查定语从句。句意:合住小区是居民一起购物、做饭和吃饭的地方。本句为限定性定语从句,修饰先行词place,且先行词在从句中作地点状语,应用关系副词where。故填where。8考查介词。句意:孩子们可以和其他孩子一起玩耍,这让很多家庭生活得既快乐又安全。根据句意可知,此处是短语play with“与玩耍”。故填with。9考查非谓语动词。句意同上。根据句意及句子结构可知,此处是make复合结构,make sb. do sth.“让某人做某事”。故填live。10考查比较级。句意:居民们还表示,与附近的公寓相比,他们住在合租公寓里的钱要少得多。表示“比附近公寓租金要少”,且有“than”,所以用little的比较级less。故填less。
