23、篇解读】本文为新闻报道。三名科学家因其在激光物理学领域的突破性发明获得2018年诺贝尔物理学奖。1advancing考查非谓语动词。空前的介词for决定空处要填名词或v.ing，结合空后的名词短语可知，本空只能填v.ing，故填advancing。2winners考查名词。本句缺少主语，且此处表示“获胜者”，应用winner；再根据谓语动词为复数形式可知，主语也用复数形式。故填winners。3the/his考查冠词或代词。此处development后有介词短语修饰，且结合语境和事实可知此处是特指，故用定冠词the；此处也可以表示因为他(Ashkin)对光镊的研发，故也可用his。4recei
24、ve考查动词的时态和主谓一致。根据语境及上文中的wins可知，此处也用一般现在时；主语是Mourou and Strickland，表示两个人，虽然主语后面跟的有each，但是不影响谓语动词的形式，故谓语动词仍旧用复数形式。5created考查非谓语动词。句子有谓语动词，故空处应填非谓语动词作后置定语，create与其逻辑主语laser beams之间是动宾关系，且动作已经完成，故用过去分词。6simply考查副词。空处修饰谓语部分，应该用simple的副词形式。7when考查定语从句。先行词为表示时间的1963，且关系词在从句中作时间状语，故用when。8was reminded考查动词的时态和语态。根据句首的时间状语“During the Nobel Prize Press Conference Tuesday morning”可知，这里应使用一般过去时；又由空后的by a reporter可知，主语与remind“提醒”之间是被动关系，故用一般过去时的被动语态。9than考查介词。由空前形容词的比较级和空后的比较对象her可知此处应用介词than。10hopeful考查形容词。空处位于am后，应用形容词作表语。hopeful“满怀希望的”。
