Question

【題目】短文填空
Each year (thousand) of tourists visit the polar regions of the Arctic and Antarctica. But the increasing number of people traveling to the ends of the Earth can have negative effect on fragile ecosystems. Should tourists (allow) to visit polar regions?
About 40,000 tourists visit Antarctica each year. More than five million travel to the Arctic and sub-Arctic. Transporting tourists to the regions (increase) ship and airplane traffic, adding to the risk of pollution, oil spills, and other (environment) damage. Because the places where wildlife is accessible (be) few in number, tourist traffic can become concentrated in specific areas, (put)Arctic vegetation at risk.
Others say that access these very special parts of the world should not be restricted to only researchers and scientists. Polar tourism allows people to develop deep （person） connections with polar regions. “Those travel to the Arctic or Antarctica often become cheerleaders for supporting those places.” Jim Sano, vice president for travel and conservation at World Wildlife Fund, told TFK.

Answer 1

【答案】thousands；a；be allowed；increases；environmental；are；putting；to；personal；who
【解析】本文為介紹說明文。文章介紹了每年有成千上萬的游客前往北極和南極地區(qū)，人們對此所持有的不同觀點。

①考查數(shù)詞用法。固定詞組：thousands of“成千上萬的”。句意：每年有成千上萬的游客前往北極和南極地區(qū)。故填thousands。

②考查冠詞。固定詞組：have an effect on“對……有影響”，因為negative是輔音音素開頭的詞，應使用不定冠詞a。故填 a。

③考查被動語態(tài)。句意：游客們應該被允許參觀極地地區(qū)嗎？根據(jù)句意，此處應使用被動語態(tài)。故填be allowed。

④考查主謂一致。句意：運送游客到該地區(qū)增加了船只和飛機的交通，增加了污染、漏油和其他……的風險。此處描述的是客觀事實，應使用一般現(xiàn)在時，主語為動名詞詞組Transporting tourists to the regions，謂語動詞應使用第三人稱單數(shù)形式。故填increases。

⑤考查詞性轉(zhuǎn)化。此處修飾damage，應使用形容詞，意為“環(huán)境方面的破壞”。故填environmental。

⑥考查主謂一致。此處描述的是客觀事實，應使用一般現(xiàn)在時，主語為the places，句子，謂語動詞應使用復數(shù)形式。故填are。

⑦考查非謂語動詞。此處與主語tourist traffic 構成邏輯主動關系，應使用現(xiàn)在分詞。故填putting。

⑧考查介詞搭配。access to“……的權限”為固定搭配。故填to。

⑨考查詞性轉(zhuǎn)化。此處修飾connections，作定語，應使用形容詞形式，意為“私人關系”。故填personal。

⑩考查定語從句。此處為定語從句，先行詞是those（那些人），連詞在從句中作主語。故填who。
