第三节 .语法填空

Humans share Earth with many different kinds of wildlife. However, many of our animal friends may not be around for much   1   (long)．

According to the Living Planet Report released by the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) in October, the populations of animals   2   (fall) by an average of 60 percent since 1970. And one of the biggest causes of wildlife losses   3   (be) human activity. Three quarters of the world's land is   4   (large) affected by human activity. Many natural habitats have been destroyed to create farmland.

“The astonishing decline   5   wildlife population is a reminder and perhaps the ultimate sign of the pressure we put on the planet，” Marco Lambertini, the general   6   (direct) of the WWF, wrote in the report.

WWF has called on world governments and businesses   7   (strike) a deal to protect people and nature. To protect   8   (endanger) animals, measures have been taken in China and progress has been made,   9   more efforts are still needed to protect wildlife in China and around the world.“We are the first generation to know we are destroying our planet and the last one   10   can do anything about it，” WWF UK Chief Executive Tanya Steele told CNN.

语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了由于人类的活动，许多动物濒临灭绝，因此我们应该采取措施保护它们。

1．longer　考查形容词比较级。分析该句可知，设空处前的much修饰形容词比较级，故填longer。

2．have fallen　考查时态和主谓一致。分析该句可知，since引导时间状语从句时，前面的主句用现在完成时，且主语the populations of ...为复数形式，故填have fallen。

3．is　考查主谓一致。分析该句可知，主语为one of the biggest causes of wildlife losses，当one of位于句首时，谓语用单数，且此处描述客观情况，故填is。

4．largely　考查副词。分析该句可知，设空处应用副词修饰动词affected，故填largely。

5．in/of　考查介词。此处of译为“属于，关于”，表示所属关系；而in译为“在……之内”，表示领域或范围，所以of和in都适用，故填in/of。

6．director　考查名词。根据Marco Lambertini可知，general后接表示人的名词，the general director译为“总干事”，应用名词形式。故填director。

7．to strike　考查不定式。设空处使用不定式作目的状语，故填to strike。

8．endangered　考查形容词。设空处应用形容词修饰其后名词animals。故填endangered。

9．but/yet　考查连词。分析该句可知，前后两句构成转折关系，but和yet都译为“但是，然而”，表示转折和对照关系。故填but/yet。

10．that/who　考查定语从句。该句为定语从句，先行词为the last one，在从句中作主语，此处one指代generation，应使用关系代词that或who。
