1.英国的面积是50335平方公里,与美国纽约相比稍大一点. 2.上文已说过英国面积并不大,故用small比较合适. 3.肯定指居住在英国的人口. 4.英国被分成两个地区.divided into意为“被分成”,broken into意为“被人闯进”,separated into意为“被分离”. 5.上文已有说明. 6.此题后面有介词from构成的短语,据此可以推断出答案.drawn引导的是过去分词短语在句中作定语修饰line. 7.lies在此是表示“位于”的意思,可以换成is. 8.此题应指的是上文提到的“an imaginary line”. 9.四个选项语法上都对,但从下文可以看出指的是“河流”. 10.原因是英国面积很小,所以河流都不长.其他从属连词无法表达出这种因果关系. 11.so在此是副词,表示程度. 12.很清楚作者说的是英国没有一条又长又宽的河流. 13.在否定句中,用来连接两个并列的名词时,应该用or. 14.the Thames位于英格兰境内,这是常识. 15.河流流经某地应用through,而across强调从表面经过. |
