　　【语篇解读】　本文是一篇时代感较强的关于建立节约型社会的文章。

　　1．largest　考查形容词的最高级。根据下文中的“in the world”和空前的“the”可知，此处应用large的最高级形式largest。

　　2．but　考查连词。根据上文的“lots of resources totally”和下文的“low resources on average”可知，此处表转折，所以用but。

　　3．a　考查冠词。miracle是可数名词，在文中第一次被提及，且发音以辅音音素开头，因此用不定冠词a。

　　4．growth　考查名词。根据“the rapidest economic”可知应用grow的名词形式growth。

　　5．which　考查非限制性定语从句。空处引导非限制性定语从句修饰前面整个句子，故用which。

　　6．becomes　考查主谓一致。动词不定式短语作主语时，谓语动词用第三人称单数形式，因此用becomes。

　　7．of　考查介词。介词of后加某些抽象名词相当于形容词，“be of great importance”相当于“be very important”。

　　8．our　考查代词。根据本句中的主语we及句意可知，应用our。

　　9．when　考查连词。分析句子结构可知，此处缺少时间状语引导词，故用when。

　　10．to recommend　考查非谓语动词。动词offer后用动词不定式结构时，意为“主动提议，建议”。

　　Finally，Mark pulled the vehicle over to the side of the road beside a diner and looked in the mirror and said，“Mary，I would like to comb my hair before we get something to eat.Could you reach under the seat and give me my hair cream？”
