1.All plants need water to grow.Watering plants seems like a simple task but it actually requires many considerations.For example,plants growing in areas with low rainfall or areas (33)exposed(expose) to dry wind require more water.On the other hand,plants which have a good adaptation to dry conditions or have the ability to store water in their cells require(34)less frequent(frequent) watering.The watering of plants should not be viewed as a minor process in gardening (35)as/for/because/since this task plays an extremely important role in ensuring healthy plant growth.
Let's first take a closer look at plants growing in gardens.Since watering is a critical gardening task,(36)an accessible water supply is vital.A garden tap with a hose of sufficient length to reach the furthest part of the garden (37)is preferred(prefer).This tends to make watering much easier and ensures adequate water is provided for the plants.Most inexperienced gardeners water little (38)butvery frequently.This is undesirable as it encourages shallow root growth.In addition,watering in full sun causes leaves to lose water quickly from the surface of the soil.Therefore,some experts recommend(39)installing(install) an automatic watering system.
As for plants growing in pots or containers,they tend to lose water rapidly.One way to reduce such a risk is (40)to grow(group) the plants close together to keep moisture.Try to move them to a shady place if you are away from home for a few days.Otherwise,you will return home to see your plants dead.

分析 本文属于说明文类的短文阅读.主要介绍了植物的成长过程,着重讲解了植物与水之间的密切关系,并以一些耐旱植物为例进行了说明.

解答 33.exposed 34.less frequent 35.as/for/because/since 36.an 37.is preferred 38.but 39.installing 40.to grow
33.exposed.考查过去分词做定语.中心词是areas与expose构成动宾关系,故用过去分词exposed做定语.
34.less frequent.考查形容词的比较级.根据句意"那些能很好的适应干旱的环境或者能在细胞中储存水分的植物不需要经常浇水",可知填frequent反义的比较级less frequent.
35.as/for/because/since.考查前后句的逻辑关系.根据句意"在园艺种植工作中,给植物浇水应当该当成大事来对待,因为这一工作在确保植物的健康成长方面起着至关重要的作用."可知,该可填表示"原因"的连接词,as/for/because/since都可以
36.an.考查冠词的用法.supply为可数名词,又是第一次出现,accessible以元音开头,故填an.
37.is preferred.考查被动语态."A garden tap with a hose of sufficient length to reach the furthest part of the garden"整个为主语,"with a hose of sufficient length"修饰"a garden tap,to reach the furthest part of the garden"不定式表目的,根据句意,填入prefer的被动语态形式,表示"被更加喜爱".
38.but.考查连词用法.根据句意"大部分没有经验的园丁每次浇水量少但频度高."可知,空格处应填表示转折连词but.
39.installing.考查动名词作宾语.建议、推荐做某事recommend doing sth.故填installing.
40.to grow.考查不定式作表语.不定式作表语,表示尚未做,可以去做的事情,故填to grow.

点评 语法填空题主要是考查对文章句子结构和词汇搭配的用法.题型涵盖了连词、非谓语、冠词、比较级、不定式、被动语态等板块.本文整体难度不大而且本次语法题中,难词、偏词、怪词几乎没有.所以,扎实的语法基本功以及理解力是考生确保语法选择题拿满分的前提.这篇文章除了要求学生的语法功底外,更不能忘了有不少题目是需要通过全文的语义来进行填空的.
