17、词性从句。根据句子结构可知，from后为宾语从句，从句中缺少主语，故填what。2called考查非谓语动词。call和bridge在逻辑上构成被动关系，故用过去分词作后置定语。3later考查副词。later作副词，表示“以后；后来”。4explorer考查名词。根据设空处后的“Francisco Vazquez de Coronado”可知，这是个人名，充当前词的同位语，故填explorer。5which/that考查定语从句的引导词。根据句子结构可知，设空处引导定语从句，修饰先行词cities，且在从句中作主语，指物，故填which/that。6from考查介词。independence from.为固定词组，意为“从独立”。7was declared 考查动词的时态和语态。it与declare在逻辑上构成被动关系，且根据“in 1912”可知，时态为过去时，故填was declared。8valuable考查形容词。“as形容词原形as”，表示“和一样”，故填valuable。9named考查动词的时态。本句是在回顾新墨西哥州州名的由来，动作发生在过去，所以谓语动词用一般过去时。10mountains考查名词复数。mountain是可数名词，再根据后文的“forests and deserts”可知，此处应用复数形式。
