7、sion M. stronger F. eager N. tackle G. finally O. understanding H. illusions 1.答案:B解析 本空应填名词。所填词应能与water处于同一语义场，故答案为B项amounts。2.答案:L解析 本空应填名词?由破折号后的yet可知前后为转折关系，此处应该是一个表积极意义的名词，故应从L项passion和O项understanding中选择。所填词由lifelong(一生的)修饰，表示对科学的一种感情。故答案为L项passion，排除O项understanding。3.答案:J解析 本空应填形容词。所填词修饰fan。由冠
8、词a可知，所填词应为辅音音素开头的形容词，故应从J项massive和M项stronger选择。此处无比较关系，故排除M项stronger。故答案为J项massive(强烈的)，massive fan意为“狂热爱好者”。4.答案:N解析 本空应填动词。此处为动词不定式结构，故应用动词原形，从选项D项avoid和N项tackle中选择。气候变化造成的影响是无法避免的，因此排除D项avoid，故答案为N项tackle。5.答案:I解析 本空应填副词。空前的but like me提示与作者的经历一样。前文说作者在小时候对科学感兴趣，因而这里应该是说有很多孩子最初对科学感兴趣。故答案为I项initial
9、ly。6.答案:A解析 本空应填形容词。这句话是在描述孩子的行为，由they have exploring spirit可知，and后面的内容应是表示肯定含义。空前的arent为否定式，故此处的形容词应表示消极意义，这样一来双重否定表示肯定。故答案为A项afraid。7.答案:E解析 本空应填名词。所填词与come to构成动词短语，与前面的几个动词短语并列。而本空所在的短语是最后一步，故答案为E项conclusion, come to a conclusion意为“得出结论”。8.答案:K解析 本空应填形容词。前句提到kids，本句又说most of us，这里的us是指成年人，as引导的从
10、句作伴随状语，get作系动词，故这里应是说随着年龄的增长，答案为K项older。9.答案:C解析 本空应填名词。所填词作make的宾语，被that引导的定语从句修饰。根据句意，我们所作的_经常被证明是错误的，从C项assumptions和H项illusions中选择。一般没有make illusions这种表达，故答案为C项assumptions。make assumptions意为“作出假设”。10.答案:D解析 本空应填动词。分析句子结构可知，所填词应为动词原形，故应从D项avoid和N项tackle之间选择。killing提示，所填词后要能接动名词作宾语，故答案为D项avoid，这里表示
