短文填空B
本文主要介绍了食物对健康的重要性以及科学家们为解决全球粮食问题而采取的创新方法,特别是如何在极端环境(如沙漠)中种植植物,同时介绍了沙漠植物为了生存而进化出的独特适应机制。
1. vegetables 根据 other plant-based foods 可知应选vegetable;短语plenty of后接可数名词复数或不可数名词;vegetable是可数名词,故用其复数形式。
2. health 这些食物为我们的健康提供必要的营养。our是形容词性物主代词,后面接名词; healthy是形容词,名词形式是health。
3. enough 短语have enough food to eat意为"有足够的食物吃"。
4. thinking of 由are提示后面用现在分词,构成现在进行时; think of意为"想出",所以用thinking of。
5. to grow use sth. to do sth. 用某物做某事; grow food种植食物,所以用to grow。
6. because 前半句说"植物在沙漠生存很有挑战",后半句解释原因"很热、缺水、土壤差",用because。
7. harder 由even提示用比较级; make it even harder for most plants to survive表示"让大多数植物更难生存"。
8. luckily 根据句意可知,植物有办法处理沙漠中的生存挑战,这是"幸运"的。修饰整个句子用副词; lucky是形容词,副词是luckily。
9. themselves protect oneself 意为"保护自己";主语是plants,反身代词用themselves。
10. take in can后接动词原形; take in salt吸收盐分。
