Question

【题目】语法填空
I felt (luck) to have won a place to go on a cultural tour to sites of lost civilizations. We visited Pompeii in Italy and Loulan in China. Pompei (found) in the 8th century BC, then takenby the Romans in 89 BC. Later, Pompei was destroyed by a volcano. It erupted and covered Pompei with ash. (fortunate), many people were buried alive. The city was forgotten for many years until the 18th century when a stone with writing on it was discovered by a farmer. People started to dig in the area treasure and caused much damage. Thus, in 1860, the area was governed by the government so could be preserved and studied.
Differently, Loulan disappeared under the sand. There were just a few (ruin) left. There was ancient water system (run) through the middle of the city. The desert was once a green with huge trees, but they were cut down,resulted in the city being buried by sand.
They were both important commercial cities about 2,000 years ago. It was a pity that they disappeared for ever.

Answer 1

【答案】lucky；was founded；over；Unfortunately；for；it；ruins；an；running；Which
【解析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍已经失去的古文明——意大利的Pompeii 和中国的Loulan。
（1）考查形容词。此处felt是连系动词，后面用形容词做后置定语，所以答案是lucky。
（2）考查语态。此处Pompei和found之间是被动关系，根据句意可知用一般过去时态的被动语态，所以答案是was founded。
（3）考查介词。句意：在89 BC被罗马人接管。take over固定短语，“接管”，可知答案为over。
（4）考查副词。根据“many people were buried alive”很多人被活埋，可知，此事是遗憾地，副词修饰整个句子，所以答案是Unfortunately。 （5）考查介词。句意：人们开始在这个地区挖掘财宝。dig for固定短语，“寻求”，所以答案是for。
（6）考查代词。句意：该地区由政府管辖，因此它可以加以保存和研究。此处用it指代前面提到的Pompei。故填it。
（7）考查名词。a few修饰可数名词复数，所以答案是ruins。
（8）考查冠词。句意：有一个古老的水系贯穿市中心。ancient以元音开头，所以此空天an。
（9）考查现在分词。句意：有一个古老的水系贯穿市中心。此处是现在分词做后置定语，表主动关系，所以答案是running。
（10）考查定语从句。句意：他们被看到，这导致城市被沙淹埋。前面整个句子做先行词，后面用which引导非限制性定语从句。所以答案是which。
