29、西南部的著名景点。1which考查关系代词。本句为非限定性定语从句， 句中缺少宾语， 指物， 故填which。2are考查主谓一致和时态。分析句子结构可知， 本句主语是 “the most popular regions”， 故谓语动词需要用复数形式。结合全文所使用的时态可知， 这里同样需要用一般现在时对英国西南部的景区进行客观介绍。故填are。3the考查冠词。根据后面的sunniest可知， 此处是形容词的最高级， 故填定冠词the。4was voted考查时态和语态。特穆尔国家公园位于英国西南部的心脏地带， 2016年被评为英国最受欢迎的公园。根据句中的时间状语 “in 2016”可知，
30、 此处用一般过去时， 由于主语 “Dartmoor National Park”和谓语动词vote之间为被动关系， 故用一般过去时的被动语态was voted。5to discover考查不定式。lead sb. to do sth.意为“促使某人做某事”。6beaches考查名词复数。beach为可数名词， 由于其前面没有出现表示单数概念的冠词或数词， 故此处需要用复数形式beaches。7slightly考查副词。此处需要用形容词slight的副词形式slightly修饰形容词cooler。8being surrounded考查动名词。from为介词， 其后需要跟动词ing形式作宾语， 由于主语the SouthWest与动词surround之间构成被动关系， 故填 “being surrounded”形式， 根据空后的介词by亦可知。9and考查连词。此处的cafes和pubs之间为并列关系， 表示“有很多的咖啡店和酒吧”， 故填and。10relaxing考查形容词。 “summer afternoons”为名词短语， 需要用形容词修饰， 由于表示“物”， 故填动词ing形式的形容词。
