30、ng考查非谓语动词。本空用所给动词的ing形式作介词by的宾语，tie“(用线、绳等)系，绑，捆，束”，其ing形式是tying。3bigger考查形容词的比较级。根据短文的内容及空格所在句的含义及逻辑关系可知，本空应用所给形容词的比较级bigger“更大的”，这里更大的船是与前面的小竹筏作对比的。空前的much用来修饰比较级。4rose考查时态。根据as“随着”可知，主句和从句的动作都发生在过去，主句用了一般过去时，从句也用一般过去时。5hugely考查副词。本空用所给单词的副词形式在句中作状语修饰谓语动词。6the考查冠词。本空填the构成in the form of短语，表示“以形式”。
31、7length(s)考查名词。run/stretch/walk etc. the (full) length of sth.是固定搭配，表示“横跨/延伸/走过某物的整个长度”；此处为同种用法，表示“横跨海洋”。length作“长度”讲时既可作可数名词也可作不可数名词，故此处可填length；也可理解为空后的oceans为复数，故length也可用复数。8are driven考查时态、语态和主谓一致。根据句意和分析句子结构可知，此处that引导定语从句，先行词为主句主语They(指代前一句中的“large ships”)，空处为定语从句的谓语。由于定语从句叙述的是一般情况，定语从句的主语that
32、为复数概念且与drive为被动关系，故填are driven。【易错点拨】本题部分考生容易误填is driven，原因是部分考生看到主语是that就认为定语从句的谓语要用单数形式，而忽略了that指代的先行词为复数。9compared考查非谓语动词/状语从句的省略。本空用所给动词的过去分词作状语，表示被动和完成。又可理解为as compared to many others是状语从句的省略结构，省略了it is。10with考查介词。当你身处一个像一座没有任何缺陷的完整城市一样的舒适的游轮中时，谁还想匆匆忙忙的呢？with表示“有”，此处with与后面的no一起连用相当于without。.短文

35、rees。考查名词的单复数。tree是可数名词，且其前有数词six修饰，表示复数概念，故用复数形式。删除started后的to。考查固定用法。start doing sth.意为“开始做某事”为固定用法，且此处digging与后面的planting及watering为并列关系，共同作start的宾语，故删除to。both改为all。考查代词。与上文“All the students”呼应可知，此处表示三者以上的复数概念，故用代词all。them改为us。考查代词。根据语境可知，此处表示在“我们中”，故用us。sets改为set。考查动词的时态。结合本文开头第一句话中的“March 12,201
36、9”可知，事情发生在过去，故用一般过去时。Because改为Although/Though/While。考查连词。根据语境可知，上下文之间为转折关系，而非因果关系，故用连词Although/Though/While引导让步状语从句。without后加a。考查冠词。此处应用a little修饰不可数名词rest，表示“少量的，一些”。而little与不可数名词连用时则表示“不多的”，不符合语境。Look改为Looking。考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知，Look和句子主语we构成逻辑上的主谓关系，故用现在分词短语作伴随状语。happy改为happily。考查副词。此处应该用副词happily修饰其前的动词smiled，在句子中作状语。
