The polar bear is found in the Arctic Circle and some big land masses as far south as Newfoundland. While they are rare north of 88°, there is evidence ___61___ they range all the way across the Arctic, and as far south as James Bay in Canada. It is difficult to figure out a global population of polar bears as much of the range has been ___62___ (poor) studied; however, biologists calculate that there are about 20,000-25,000 polar bears worldwide. Modem methods ___63___ tracking polar bear populations have been employed only since the mid-1980s, and are expensive ___64___ (perform) consistently over a large area. In recent years some Inuit people in Nunayut ___65___ (report) increases in bear sightings around human settlements, leading to a ___66___ (believe) that populations are increasing. Scientists have responded by ___67___ (note) that hungry bears may be congregating(聚集) around human settlements, leading to the illusion(错觉) that populations are ___68___ (high) than they actually are. Of ___69___ nineteen recognized polar bear subpopulations, three are declining, six ___70___ (be) stable, one is increasing, and nine lack enough data. 61. 【答案】that
【解析】句意:虽然在北纬88度以北它们较为罕见,但是有证据表明,它们的活动范围延伸到北极,向南延伸至加拿大的詹姆斯湾。there is evidence是一个there be句型,后面又是一个句子,所以空白处应填连词;这是一个同位语从句,连接词在从句中不作成分,也没有意思,所以用that引导。 62. 【答案】poorly
【解析】句意:很难弄清北极熊在全球的数量,因为北极熊活动的大部分区域都没有进行仔细研究。修饰谓语has been studied,应用副词作状语,故填入形容词poor的副词形式poorly。 63. 【答案】of
【解析】句意:跟踪北极熊种群的现代方法只是从20世纪80年代中期才开始采用,而且一直大范围地使用费用很高。这里指做某事的方法,用介词of。 64. 【答案】to perform
【解析】句意:跟踪北极熊种群的现代方法只是从20世纪80年代中期才开始采用,而且一直大范围地使用费用很高。and连接两个并列的谓语动词have been employed和are,所以空格处只能用非谓语动词;expensive是形容词,其后应接不定式作状语,故填入to perform。
65. 【答案】have reported
【解析】句意:最近几年,努纳武特地区的因纽特人报告称在人类居住区看到北极熊的次数在增加,导致人们认为北极熊的数量在增加。分析句子结构可知,空白处作谓语;由时间状语in recent years可知,应用现在完成时。 66. 【答案】belief
【解析】句意:最近几年,努纳武特地区的因纽特人报告称在人类居住区看到北极熊的次数在增加,导致人们认为北极熊的数量在增加。空格前有不定冠词a,故应填入单数名词;believe的名词形式为belief。 67. 【答案】noting
【解析】句意:科学家根据记录回应称,饥饿的北极熊可能会聚集在人类居住区周围,使我们产生一种错觉,那就是北极熊的数量比要实际多。by是介词,后面接动名词作宾语。故填入noting。 68. 【答案】higher
【解析】句意:科学家根据记录回应称,饥饿的北极熊可能会聚集在人类居住区周围,使我们产生一种错觉,那就是北极熊的数量比要实际多。由比较连词than可知,应用比较级,故填入形容词high的比较级形式higher。 69. 【答案】the
【解析】句意:在十九个被公认的北极熊亚种群中,三个在退化,六个稳定,一个在增加,九个缺乏足够的数据。这里表示特指,应填定冠词the。 70. 【答案】are
【解析】and连接4个并列句,six _________ (be) stable是其中一个,所以空格处应填动词;其他 三个分句都用的是一般现在时,此处应用一般现在时。这里的six指six polar bear subpopulations,是复数,故be动词用are。

【解析】句意:一位90岁的老人被授予“年度最佳妇女”称号,因为她是英国年龄最大的全职雇员,现在每周仍然工作40个小时。for是介词,后面接动名词作宾语。故填入being。 62. 【答案】which
【解析】句意:现在Irene Astbury每天从上午9点到下午5点在麦克莱斯菲尔德的宠物店工作,宠物店是她和已故丈夫Les开的。这是一个复合句,主句是Now Irene Astbury works from 9 am to 5 pm daily at the pet shop in Macclesfield,从句是_______ she opened with her late husband Les。从句说明the pet shop,是定语从句。关系词在从句中作宾语,且先行词shop指物,故用关系代词which。虽然that也可以指物,但这是一个非限制性定语从句,故不能用that。 63. 【答案】fianlly
【解析】句意:在一个顾客提名她为切斯特年度最佳妇女后,她多年的努力最终得到了回报。这里作状语,修饰谓语动词,故用副词。final的副词形式是finally。 64. 【答案】declared

【解析】句意:我喜欢来这里看我的家人和这么多年结交的所有朋友。由语境及时间状语over the years可知,应用现在完成时,故填入have made。 67. 【答案】but
