Question

【题目】阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当内容（1个单词）或括号内单词的正确形式。

Everyone 【1】 (complain) about being stuck in traffic. It is quite possible that the future city will have no traffic at all. H.G Wells, in his book The Sleeper Awakes, tells something about the traffic. In the streets of that future London there will be no vehicles. The city 【2】 (provide) with moving roads. One side of the road travels 【3】 one direction; the other side moves 【4】 opposite way. Anyone who wants to go to another part of the city steps on the moving “way” and sits on one of the seats until he arrives. He has none of the troubles 【5】 a private car brings with it: whether there is enough petrol, whether the tyres are all right, where to park it. The moving way is always at his service, always moving 【6】 (silent) along, always ready 【7】 (take) him to his destination. That city of the future has no traffic jams.

To link up the 【8】 (vary) cities, vehicles driven by atomic power will pass along highways 【9】 (divide) into two main groups of lanes. Each group will consist of several lanes, some for slow traffic, some for fast. Crossroads will not exist on these highways, but will be replaced by bridges and junctions(交叉口). Where these highways enter 【10】 (city), ports and other built-up areas, they will pass through underground tunnels.

Answer 1

【答案】

【1】complains

【2】will be provided

【3】in

【4】the

【5】which/that

【6】silently

【7】to take

【8】various

【9】divided

【10】cities

【解析】

试题分析：每个人都抱怨交通堵塞，本文讲述了H.G Wells这个人预言的未来交通。

【1】complains 句意：每个人都抱怨交通堵塞。根据句意可知，用一般现在时态，Everyone作主语，谓语动词用单数，故填complains。

【2】will be provided 句意：这个城市将被提供移动公路。根据句意可知，用一般将来时态的被动语态，故填will be provided。

【3】in 固定形式：in the direction在某个方向。故填in。

【4】the 表示“另一方移动相反的方向”。此处表示特指，故填the。

【5】which/that none of the troubles作先行词，指物，后面是定语从句，在从句中作宾语，故填which/that。

【6】silently 副词修饰动词，故填silently。

【7】to take 固定词组：be ready to do sth.准备做某事，故填to take。

【8】various 形容词修饰名词，故填various。

【9】divided 表示“被分成两条主要车道的高速公路”，过去分词作后置定语，故填divided。

【10】cities 句意：高速进入城市的地方，也就是港口和其他建筑物多的地方。不只一个城市，故此处用名词复数，故填cities。
