12、ce.语篇大意：本文是一篇说明文，介绍了中国古代水利工程都江堰的历史、作用等。1Built 解析：考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知，空处应用非谓语形式，因 build 与句子的主语是逻辑上的动宾关系，因此用动词过去分词形式作状语。2achievement 解析：考查词形转换。该空在句中作主语，因此用其名词形式。根据空后的 is 可知，应用单数形式。3suffered 解析：考查时态。根据 In ancient times 可知，此处用一般过去时，因此填 suffered。4To help 解析：考查非谓语动词。由语境可知，李冰父子决定找出解决问题的方法，其目的是帮助水灾的受害者，因此用不定式作
