27、非谓语动词。本句有谓语,因此此处应用非谓语动词;分析句子结构及句意可知,此处应用动词不定式to see作目的状语。3dying考查非谓语动词。短语reduce ones risk of.“降低某人的风险”,此处介词of后用动名词作宾语。4is考查时态和主谓一致。本文介绍了跑步的好处,通篇以一般现在时为主。本句中宾语从句与主句的时态应保持一致,故用一般现在时;且宾语从句中的主语为it,故用is。5than考查介词。根据句中的more可知,此处应用介词than引出比较对象。此处表示跑步比散步、骑行或游泳更能有效地延长寿命。故填than。6that/which考查定语从句的关系词。分析句子结构可知,
28、此处引导定语从句,先行词为a study,且定语从句中缺少主语,故填关系代词that/which。7causes考查名词复数。此处cause是可数名词,意为“原因”,句中的all表示“所有”,后应用可数名词的复数形式,故填causes。8strengthen考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知,此处为动词不定式作目的状语,故本空应填动词strengthen,意为“增强,加强”。9energetic考查形容词。and连接两个并列分句,两个分句都表示跑步的特征,and前面的cheap和easy均为形容词,故此处应用形容词energetic作表语,意为“精力充沛的,充满活力的”。10it考查固定搭配。give it a try为固定搭配,意为“试一试”,根据语境可知,it指代running,故可填it或running。
