Answer 1

【答案】electric；companies；than；having；which；are expected；It；reduced；to book；more expensive
【解析】本文是一篇說明文，介紹了Kitty Hawk和Uber兩家公司的飛行汽車上市進展情況。
（1）考查形容詞。這里用形容詞作定語，修飾名詞planes，electric意為“電動的”，故填electric。
（2）考查名詞復(fù)數(shù)。名詞companies（公司）前有two修飾，所以要用復(fù)數(shù)形式，在句中作主語，故填companies。
（3）考查連詞。句意：比你想的快得多，飛行汽車可能出現(xiàn)在天空中。根據(jù)句意，故填than。
（4）考查動名詞。Imagine（設(shè)想）后總是接動名詞作賓語，故填having。
（5）考查關(guān)系代詞。定語從句，先行詞是cars，用關(guān)系代詞which在從句中作主語，故填which。
（6）考查時態(tài)。句意：第一輛飛行汽車有望在2017年底有售。expect在此是謂語動詞，根據(jù)與主語Its first flying cars是被動關(guān)系，故要用一般現(xiàn)在時態(tài)的被動語態(tài)，故填are expected。
（7）考查代詞。此處用代詞it代替上文提到了Uber公司，特指，故填I(lǐng)t。
（8）考查過去分詞。With的復(fù)合結(jié)構(gòu)：with+賓語+過去分詞，此處the travel time與reduced之間是被動關(guān)系，故填reduced。
（9）考查不定式。固定搭配：use sth. to do sth（使用……去做……），用不定式表示目的，故填to book。
（10）考查形容詞。句意：據(jù)估計，飛行的士要比陸地的士要更貴一些。要用形容詞比較級作表語，故填more expensive。
