Answer 1

【答案】was；actually；the；or；to reduce；cleaner；that/ which；amazing；changes；patient
【解析】
（1）考查系動詞。根據(jù)本段第一句In 1969,the pollution was terrible可知本段敘述的是過去發(fā)生的事情。the Cuyahoga River Cleveland在過去被污染地如此地嚴重，過去沒有人能夠想象到這條河能被清理干凈。故填was。
（2）考查副詞 本句中使用副詞actually做狀語修飾謂語動詞caught fire，actual是形容詞，不能在句中做狀語，通常只做定語或者表語修飾名詞。故填actually。
（3）考查定冠詞。本句橫線后面的most是最高級的形式，所以使用the most outstanding的形式。故填the。
（4） 句義：但是這條河流的改變不是幾天或者幾個月的事情。本句中的or“或者”表示選擇的意思。故填or。
（5） 考察固定句式：It takes sb some time to do sth做某事花了某人…時間；句中的不定式to reduce he industrial pollution and clean the water是句子真正的主語。前面的it是形式主語。故填to reduce。
（6） 句義：最后人們的努力得到了回報，現(xiàn)在這條河比以前更干凈了。橫線后面有than，說明橫線上應(yīng)該使用比較級的形式。故填cleaner。
（7） 本句是一個定語從句，先行詞是a habit，定語從句中使用關(guān)系動詞that/which指代先行詞在句做主語。故填that/which。
（8）現(xiàn)在分詞轉(zhuǎn)換的形容詞常常修飾事物，過去分詞轉(zhuǎn)換的形容詞常常修飾人或者與人有關(guān)的事物。橫線后面是名詞story，說明應(yīng)該使用現(xiàn)在分詞轉(zhuǎn)換的形容詞。故填amazing。
（9）本句中謂語部分是系動詞are，說明主語應(yīng)該是一個復(fù)數(shù)形式的名詞，所以使用changes。故填changes。
（10）橫線前面有系動詞be，說明本句是一個祈使句be patient耐心一點。因為很多變化都是逐漸發(fā)生的，需要很多努力，我們要耐心一點。故填patient。
