【解析】

這是一篇說明文。文章主要以Bob Fitzgerald位于馬里蘭州的Princess Anne社區(qū)的土地為例，說明了由于土地下沉和氣候變化導致海水上升，土地的含鹽量越來越高，農(nóng)作物無法在上面生長。在世界各地，科學家們警告說，沿海農(nóng)場正受到海平面上升和海水上漲的威脅。

【1】考查名詞的數(shù)。句意：到他位于馬里蘭州的Princess Anne社區(qū)拜訪的人，主要看到的是凋零的森林和空曠的農(nóng)田。此處做主語表示“拜訪的人”應(yīng)用名詞visitor，且visitor為可數(shù)名詞，前面沒有冠詞，故用復數(shù)形式。句首字母要大寫。故填Visitors。

【2】考查副詞。修飾后文動詞see應(yīng)用副詞mainly，表示“主要”。故填mainly。

【3】考查動詞時態(tài)語態(tài)。根據(jù)后文for over 3 centuries可知應(yīng)用現(xiàn)在完成時，且主語為land，助動詞應(yīng)用has。故填has been。

【4】考查冠詞。句意：你將會失去很大比例的土地。percentage為可數(shù)名詞，此處表示泛指應(yīng)用不定冠詞，且very為輔音音素開頭的單詞。故填a。

【5】考查比較級。句意：但是氣候變化使事情變得更糟。結(jié)合句意表示“更糟糕”應(yīng)用比較級worse。故填worse。

【6】考查非謂語動詞。句意：結(jié)果，土地的含鹽量越來越高，農(nóng)作物無法在上面生長。表示“太……以致不能……”短語為too…to…，故填to grow。

【7】考查連接詞。此處為賓語從句，從句中缺少方式狀語，表示“如何”應(yīng)用how。故填how。

【8】考查名詞。under為介詞后跟名詞作賓語，短語under threat表示“受到威脅”。故填threat。

【9】考查介詞。根據(jù)短語fall by表示“下降了……”。故填by。

【10】考查動詞語態(tài)。本句主語與謂語動詞構(gòu)成被動關(guān)系，且will后跟動詞原形。故填be forced。

名詞性從句關(guān)鍵在于三點：

一、找準從句在主句中充當?shù)某煞旨捶殖鍪敲�詞性從句的主語句、賓語從句、表語從句還是同位語從句；

二、連接詞從句中充當?shù)某煞郑ㄖ�、賓、定或狀語或不做任何成分）；

三、弄清楚每個連接詞的意義。此外還要注意，近年來高考對于名詞性從句的考查多從名詞性從句的語序和連接詞的用法區(qū)別上考查。

如第七小題，此處為賓語從句，從句中缺少方式狀語，表示“如何”應(yīng)用how。故填how。
