(框架)orsportsequipmentare65.(general)whereyoucanimaginethisbeingused.”答案与解析【语篇解读】你对科学感兴趣吗?你觉得自我修复技术怎么样?56.when考查关系副词。设空处引导定语从句,修饰先行词moment且在从句中作时

间状语,故填when。57.surprising考查形容词。设空处作表语,说明主语Theabilityofnon-humanthingstorepairthemselves的特征,故填surprising。58.impression考查名词。leavea

deepimpressionon...意为“给……留下深刻印象”。59.an考查冠词。takeaninterestin...意为“对……感兴趣”。60.beused考查被动语态。material与use之间是被动关系,且设空处前有情态动词could,故填beused。61.your

考查代词。设空处在此作定语,意为“你的”,故填your。62.torepair考查固定结构。beabletodosth意为“能够做某事”。63.to考查介词。leadto意为“导致,造成”。64.asked考查非谓语动词。ask与ProfessorWass

之间是逻辑上的动宾关系,又因ask表示的动作先于谓语动作发生,故填asked。65.generally考查副词。设空处修饰谓语动词are,故填副词generally(一般)。第四部分写作(共两节,满分40分)第一节(满分15分)最近,“垃圾分类(rubbishcla
