【文章大意】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了悉尼歌剧院一段非常有趣的历史。建造歌剧院时

政府举办了一场为歌剧院寻找设计方案的国际比赛，但一位不知名的丹麦建筑师JornUtzon的

设计却获得了冠军。Utzon到悉尼向政府展示了他的歌剧院模型，然后回到丹麦与一家工程公

司拟定建筑计划。

1.【解析】buildings。考查名词复数。此处recognizable"可认识的'’是形容词，修饰名词，再根

据oneof+名词复数，所以该空填buildings«

2.【解析】haso考查时态和主谓一致。这里在说一个客观事实，所以句子用一般现在时，且

句子主语是Oneofthemostrecognizablebuildingsintheworld,单数第三人称，故填has。

3.【解析】finallyo考查副词。此处agreed是动词，由副词修饰，故填finally。

4.【解析】an。考查不定冠词。此处表示“一场国际比赛”，用不定冠词，且international是读

音以元音音素开头的词，故填an。

5.【解析】who/thato考查定语从句。此处designers是先行词，指人，分析句子，把designers

放在后面的定语从句中，作主语，故填who/that。

6.【解析】namedo考查过去分词作后置定语。句中architect和name之间是被动关系，用过

去分词作后置定语，故填named。

7.【解析】toshow。考查动词不定式作目的状语。此处动词不定式作目的状语，故填toshow。

8.【解析】ando考查并列连词。此处是并列谓语，故填and。

9.【解析】drawing。考查状语从句的省略。本句为状语从句的省略，还原后为:whileUtzonwas

drawing,因主句主语和从句主语相同，且从句有be动词，所以主语和be动词被省略。故填

drawingo

10.【解析】as。考查介词。固定搭配:use...as...“把……当作……此处是“把它们当做灵

感”，故填as。
