29、有一个可靠的方法来预测。本空修饰名词way，故应用形容词reliable，意为“可靠的，可信赖的”。2possibly考查副词。句意：它可能是最先进的。本空修饰形容词advanced，故应用副词possibly。3are setting考查时态。句意：工程师们正在全国范围内安装超过15,000个传感器，并将它们连接到一个网络上。根据后面and并列的动词wiring及句意可知，本空应用现在进行时are setting。4When/If/Once/After考查状语从句连接词。句意：当/如果/一旦/地震发生时(地震发生后)，传感器可以向控制中心发送电脉冲。根据句意可知，本空可填When/If/On
30、ce/After。5giving考查现在分词。句意：该信号的传送速度几乎达到光速，比地震的震动速度还要快，给当地居民一点时间做准备。本空在句中作状语，且和主语“The signal”之间为主动关系，故应用现在分词作状语。6which考查非限制性定语从句。本空引导限制性定语从句，修饰“The system”，本空在从句中作主语，指物，故应用关系代词which。7movement/move考查名词。句意：不仅可以探测大陆的运动。根据空前冠词the及空后介词of可知，本空应用名词形式movement或move。8of考查介词。the possible impact 8._ an earthquake意为“地震可能的影响”，故本空应填介词of。9itself考查代词。句意：它会自动向当地人发出警告，比人类的观察速度快得多。making的逻辑主语为句子的主语it即the system，和本空人称一致，故本空应用反身代词itself作宾语，代替语境中的“预警系统本身”。10to be completed考查不定式。句意：该系统由中国应急管理部监管，预计将于2022年完工。根据句中时间状语“in 2022”可知，这里用不定式的一般式表示将来要进行的动作，且句中主语“The system”与“complete”之间为被动关系，故本空应用不定式的被动结构to be completed。
