28、响。1.the考查冠词。句意:2019年早些时候,国际山地综合发展中心发布了迄今为止关于气候变化将如何影响全球冰川的最全面的分析报告,警告称,到2100年,约有1,800座冰川将消失。根据句意可知此处表示“最全面的”,修饰形容词最高级mostcomprehensive用定冠词,故填the。2.warning考查非谓语动词。theInternationalCentreforIntegratedMountainDevelopment与warn之间是逻辑上的主谓关系,表示主动,用动词-ing形式作伴随状语,故填warning。3.prediction考查名词。句意:对于大约19亿南亚人来说,这是一个
29、糟糕的预测。他们不仅将冰川的水用于饮用,还将其用于农业、水力发电和旅游业。此处缺少名词作表语,故填prediction。4.who考查非限定性定语从句。此处为非限定性定语从句,关系词指代先行词SouthAsians(指人),并在从句中作主语,故填who。5.rapidly考查副词。句意:随着冰川的迅速融化,所有的水(超过十亿加仑,几乎相当于休伦湖所含的水量)将流向哪里?修饰动词melt用副词,故填rapidly。6.contained考查非谓语动词。amount与contain之间是逻辑上的动宾关系,表示被动,用过去分词作后置定语,故填contained。7.its考查代词。句意:长期以来以冰
30、川为标志的喜马拉雅山脉,现在正变成以湖泊为标志的山脉。修饰名词glaciers,用形容词性物主代词,故填its。8.wereformed考查时态和语态。句意:事实上,另一项研究发现,从1990年到2010年,亚洲高山山脉上形成了900多个新的冰川湖泊。时间状语“from1990to2010”表明事情发生在过去,主语morethan900newglaciers-fedlakes与form之间是被动关系,所以用一般过去时的被动语态,且谓语动词用复数,故填wereformed。9.on/upon考查固定短语。句意:由于地理位置偏远,科学家们必须依靠卫星来计算湖泊的数量,而且新湖泊的数量似乎增长得如此之快,以至于科学团队很难就精确的数量达成一致。根据“satellitestocountthem”可知此处表示“依靠”,relyon/upon表示“依靠”,故填on/upon。10.faster考查形容词比较级。句意:这一切甚至都比我们5年或10年前预测的要快得多。根据空后的“than”可知此处用形容词比较级,且空前的“much”也修饰形容词比较级,故填faster。
