47、your修饰，应用名词形式，所以填surroundings“环境”。4ignored考查动词的语态。分析句子结构可知，此处与句子主语Repeating information构成被动关系，故应用被动结构，即bedone；另句中已有be，所以填ignored。5closed考查非谓语动词。with复合结构为“with名词/代词分词/形容词/副词/介词短语/名词”在句子中作状语。your eyes和动词close构成逻辑上的动宾关系，所以填closed。6to start考查非谓语动词。此处考查固定句型“it takes some time to do sth.”，其中it作形式主语，不定式短语为
48、真正的主语。7when/as/while考查状语从句。根据语境并分析句子结构可知，空处引导一个状语从句，意为“当的时候”，所以填when或as或while。8a考查冠词。researcher是可数名词，又是第一次在语境中出现，表泛指，故用不定冠词修饰，又researcher的发音以辅音音素开头，故用a。9exposure考查名词。分析句子结构可知，空处应为名词，作动词limit的宾语，所以填exposure。10in考查介词。be helpful in doing sth.“有助于做某事”是固定用法，所以填介词in。.短文改错(2020惠州市高三第一次调研考试)To support the a
