Answer 1

分析 美國高速交通網(wǎng)世界聞名，可以讓人們在盡可能短的時(shí)間里到達(dá)想去的地方．這些現(xiàn)代化的公路寬闊平坦，很少有急轉(zhuǎn)彎．但因?yàn)樗麄兺ǔ６纪緩斤L(fēng)景名勝，連接大城市的中心，這就意味著在高峰時(shí)間段會(huì)有交通擁堵．當(dāng)然，如果你不趕時(shí)間，可以走鄉(xiāng)下的小路，盡管這些小路不是那么筆直，距離也會(huì)變遠(yuǎn)，走起來更慢，但你可以欣賞到美麗的風(fēng)景，呼吸到新鮮的空氣，看到一個(gè)潔凈的世界．

解答 61．designed；考查分詞作定語．名詞highways與動(dòng)詞design之間是被動(dòng)關(guān)系，所以用過去分詞作定語．
62．Although；考查連詞．分析上下文可知，這是一個(gè)讓步狀語從句，故用although引導(dǎo)．
63．enjoyable；考查形容詞．這里用形容詞形式enjoyable在句中作定語，修飾后面的one．
64．whole；考查固定短語．on the whole總體上，基本上；句意表達(dá)的是高速公路基本上都連接著大城市的中心．
65．which；考查連詞．句中which引導(dǎo)定語從句，修飾前面整個(gè)句子的內(nèi)容．
66．However；考查副詞．句意表達(dá)的是轉(zhuǎn)折，句中有逗號(hào)分隔，要填表示轉(zhuǎn)折含義的副詞．
67．a(chǎn)；考查不定冠詞．in a hurry是固定短語，意為"立即，匆忙"．
68．frightening；考查分詞．句中frighten修飾后面的名詞hillsides，要用形容詞形式；hillsides是物，要用現(xiàn)在分詞來修飾．
69．with；考查介詞．provide…with…是固定短語，意為"為…提供…"．
70．to get；考查動(dòng)詞不定式．句中g(shù)et用來修飾名詞chance，作chance的后置定語，要用非謂語動(dòng)詞；動(dòng)詞不定式修飾抽象名詞，且get后接賓語，要用不定式的主動(dòng)．

點(diǎn)評(píng) 首先要通讀全文，了解大意，抓住上下文語境所提供的信息，仔細(xì)分析帶空格的句子，明確空格所要填的詞義，詞型和短語搭配給出所要填的正確形式，然后整體閱讀短文，核對(duì)答案．
