主题语境:人与社会——社会
本文是说明文。文章讲述了发展当地种植的重要性。
61. it。考查it的用法。设空处作形式主语,真正的主语是to know why this trend in farming matters,故填it。
62. their。考查代词。设空处作定语修饰food,表示“他们的”,故填形容词性物主代词their。
63. to farm。考查不定式作宾语的用法。want to do sth. 意为“想要做某事”。
64. is。考查主谓一致。动词-ing形式短语作主语,谓语动词用单数形式。由语境可知,设空处所在句描述现在的情况,应用一般现在时,故填is。
65. benefits。考查名词复数。设空处所在句为there be结构,设空处表示“好处”,由设空处前的are many可知,此处应用名词复数形式,故填benefits。
66. fully。考查副词。设空处作状语修饰grown,表示“完全地”,故填副词fully。
67. which。考查关系代词。设空处引导非限制性定语从句,指代前面整个主句且在从句中作主语,故填which。
68. be used。考查被动语态。land与use之间是被动关系,应用被动语态,因为设空处前有情态动词might,故填be used。
69. buying。考查动词-ing形式作宾语的用法。设空处与supporting并列作介词by的宾语,故填buying。
70. or。考查连词。设空处所在句意为“你可以在厨房一个小容器里或者后院里自己种植食物”,故填or。either ... or ... 意为“或……或……”。
