文章主要介绍了中国的长城。

1．was listed解析：考查动词的时态和语态。

根据时间状语in 1987可知，此处用一般过去时，又因为动词list与主语是被动关系，此处用一般过去时的被动语态。

句意：中国的长城，世界伟大的奇迹之一，1987年被列为世界遗产。

2．With解析：考查固定短语with the history of ＋数字＋years （有着……年的历史）。

句意：有着大约2700年的历史，长城的一些节段现在成了废墟或者已经消失了。

3．the解析：考查固定搭配one...the other...。

句意：每隔300米到500米有堡垒。

堡垒有两种。

一种是叫战斗堡垒的两层堡垒，底层用于生活、储存武器，顶层用于瞭望和射击；另一种是作战平台，用于巡逻和战斗。

4．standing 解析：考查非谓语动词。

分析句子成分可知，stand 与Many castles存在逻辑上的主谓关系，故用stand的现在分词，表示主动。

standing on the higher part along the Great Wall是现在分词短语作后置定语，修饰Many castles。

句意：耸立在长城沿线较高地段的许多堡垒事实上是烽火台。

5．enemies解析：考查名词复数。

句意：在古代，士兵如果发现敌人白天生烟、夜晚放火。

6．instantly解析：考查词形转换。

句意：在另一个遥远的烽火台上看到火光的士兵会立即点火，并且下一个烽火台也会立即点火，这个（发现敌人的）信息就很快被传递到指挥部。

7．communication解析：考查词形转换。

句意：在那个时代，它是通信方式之一。

8．seen解析：考查非谓语动词。

分析句子成分可知，see与the Great Wall存在逻辑上的动宾关系，故用see的过去分词，表示被动。

seen from high above是过去分词短语作状语。

句意：当从上方天空中看长城的时候，中国的长城像一条龙。

9．Is解析：考查时态和主谓一致。

此处陈述的是一般事实，故用一般现在时；主语是the Great Wall of China，故谓语动词用单数。

句意：世界各地的人都知道，中国的长城是世界上最长的防御设施。

10．that/which解析：考查定语从句。

分析句子结构可知，该空引导的是一个限制性定语从句，从句中缺少宾语且先行词是an ancient masterpiece，故此处用关系代词that/which。

句意：从文化和历史两方面来说，长城都是你能充分欣赏到的古代的杰作。

B第二节（共10小题；每小题1．5分，满分15分）阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

This __5__ (lose) was very bad for the country, of course, but it turned out to be very good for the food.

So they started cutting their meat and vegetables __7__ small pieces before they put them in the hot oil. That way, the food cooked __8__ (fast) and they saved more fuel.

作者的工作地点离唐人街很近，当他第一次吃中国食物时就喜欢上了。

在5 000年前，由于中国的木柴缺乏，人们为了节约木柴，就把食物切成小块烹饪，食物很快就熟了，而且保持了鲜美的味道。

1．where解析：此处Chinatown是先行词，在后面的非限制性定语从句中作地点状语，故填where。

2．had_noticed解析：在That was the first time that...句型中，前面是was，所以从句中用过去完成时态，故填had noticed。

3．it解析：此处用it指代前面的the food。

4．an解析：energy读音以元音开头，此处表示“很多年前中国有一个能源危机”，故填an。

5．loss解析：根据句意可知，此处缺主语，所以应该用名词形式，故填loss。
