63.which

64.with65.attached66.their

67.flags

68.slightly69.running70.falls/isfalling66.their

形容詞性物主代詞修飾名詞，故填their。67.flags

句意：得到旗子最多的獲勝?？芍~用復數(shù)形式，故填flags。68.slightly

此處用slightly修飾比較級加強語氣。69.running

此處while+現(xiàn)在分詞做時間狀語，故填running。注意雙寫開頭。70.falls/isfalling

句意：隨著黃昏的降臨。根據(jù)句意everyyear可知用一般現(xiàn)在時態(tài)或現(xiàn)在進行時態(tài)，故填falls/isfalling。【知識歸納】下面的詞或詞組可以放在比較級前面修飾比較級加強語氣：much/even/alot/alittle/any/still/far/slightly/agreatdeal.比如Ifeltmuchhappier.我感覺幸福多了.68.slightly

此處用slightly修飾比較級加強語氣。三、閱讀理解21.Trees,someofthetallestintheworld,toweredaboveHannahGriffithsandhercolleagueseachmorningastheywalkeddeepintotherainforestintheMaliauBasininBorneo,wheretheyhadsetupasetofexperimentstolookattheecologicaleffectsofsmallcreatures:termites(白蟻).Termitesgetabumrap.TheymakeheadlinesforchewingupbillionsofdollarsofpropertyeachyearintheU.S.Andtheyareresponsibleforsomethingliketwopercentofglobalcarbonemissions,simplyasaresultoftheirhugepopulationsandpreferenceforchewingthroughcarbonrichmaterials.Awholeindustryisaimingatkillingthem.Buttheyplayakeyroleinmanynaturalecosystems.Scientistshaveknownforyearsthatintropical(熱帶的)forests,termiteschewupfallenleavesanddeadwood,keepingthefallenmaterialundercontrolandlettingnutrientsfromthedeadmaterialbackintothesystemtobeusedbyotherplants,insects,andanimals.Buttheydidn’tknowexactlyhowimportanttheinsectswereinkeepingtheforesthealthyandfunctional,sotheyremovedtermitesfromaparticularspotintheforestandsawhowitresponded.Asluckwouldhaveit,HannahGriffithsandhercolleaguesstartedtheirexperimentwhentheforestwashitbyanextremedrought(干旱).Duringthenon-droughtyears,theysawtherewasn’tmuchdifferencebetweenthenormalplotsandtheoneswherethey’dremovedthetermites.Butduringthedrought,theeffectsweremarked.Whattheyfoundwasunexpected:inthetermite-richareas,thesoilstayedslightlywet,moretreeseedlingssprouted(抽芽),andthesystemwasfullofactivitydespitethelong,harddryspell.ForGriffiths,itwasonlybecausetheyhappenedtostudythedroughtthattheycouldpickouttherealimportanceoftermitestothesystem,shepointsout.“Andthatringsalarmbellsinmyhead,”shesays,“becauseitmakesmethink,wellwhatelsedon’tweknow?Ifwestartdamagingbiologicalcommunities,wedon’tknowwhatthatwilldo.”28.Whichofthefollowingbestexplains“abumrap”underlinedinParagraph2?A.Unfairblame.
