Answer 1

【文章大意】本文是一篇議論文，主要討論了噪聲污染問題。

has doubled考査動詞的時態(tài)。根據(jù)語境中時間狀語in the past ten years可知，本句用現(xiàn)在完成時，且主謂一致，故用has doubled 。

in 考査介詞。an increase in sth意為"在某方面有所增長"，符合語境，故用介詞in。

clearly考查詞性轉(zhuǎn)換。修飾動詞的詞為副詞，故用clearly 修飾謂語動詞affects,符合語境。

is said 考查動詞的語態(tài)。It is said that... = sb/sth is said to do意為"據(jù)說"，符合語境，且前后時態(tài)一致，故用一般現(xiàn)在時的被動語態(tài)形式。

contributing 考查詞性轉(zhuǎn)換。此處contributing是現(xiàn)在分詞充當(dāng)形容詞，修飾物，意為"促進性的"，符合語境。

which考查定語從句。此處which引導(dǎo)非限制性定語從句，在從句中作主語,代指前面整個句子。

the 考査冠詞。level and constancy被介詞短語of noise修飾，表示特指，故用定冠詞。

to make 考査非謂語動詞。have a right to do sth意為''有權(quán)利做某事"，不定式作賓語補足語，符合語境。

that 考查連詞。so—that…意為"如此……以至于……"， 引導(dǎo)狀語從句，符合語境。

it考査代詞。it作形式主語，代指后面真正的主語，即不定式短語，符合語境。
