　　答案解析：

　　1. 【答案】 G)。

　　【精析】 副詞辨析題?？崭袂懊媸莃e動詞，后面為形容詞wasteful，因此空格處需要填入一個副詞。前一句中提到美國現有住宅1億多所，該句指出，如果全部拆毀，造成的浪費必然。incredibly"不能相信地，難以置信地"符合題意。

　　2. 【答案】 K)。

　　【精析】 動詞辨析題?？崭袂懊嬗羞B詞and，通過分析句子結構可知，空格處的詞語與前面的動詞tear為并列關系，因此空格處需要填入動詞原形。文章首句提到，綠 色環保型住宅備受歡迎。本句中承接首句指出，如果拆毀現有住宅，綠色環保型住宅，將造成一種浪費。因此空格處應填入具有"重新建成"或"取而代之"意義的詞，且與后面的介詞with構成搭配。備選動詞中符合以上兩點要求的只有replace。replace...with...意為"用……取代……"。

　　3. 【答案】 J)。

　　【精析】 形容詞辨析題?？崭袂懊嬗卸ü谠~the，后面有名詞carbon emissions，因此需要填入一個形容詞。文章圍繞green buildings展開，也就是本句中提到的new energy-efficient home。而這種新型的綠色環保建筑的最大特點就是能夠碳的排放，填入reduced"減少的"符合句意。這樣也就能與后面的不定式部分的句意"補償拆毀舊住宅所造成的資源浪費"保持一致。

　　4. 【答案】 L)。

　　【精析】 名詞辨析題。空格前為形容詞最高級，因此其后應該填入名詞，且該名詞需要和前面的broadest搭配。備選名詞中能夠和broadest搭配的只有sense。實際上，此處為固定搭配in the broadest sense，意為"從廣義上來講"，是我們熟悉的短語in a sense的變化形式。

　　5. 【答案】 H)。

　　【精析】 動詞辨析題?？崭袂懊嬗羞B詞and，由此可知空格處的詞語與前面的heating和cooling是并列關系，因此推斷空格處的詞應該也為動名詞形式。動 名詞形式有兩個，分別是powering和supplying，其中supplying常與with搭配，意為"供應"，此處不符合句意。 powering"向……提供能量"與前面的heating和cooling在意義上具有相關性，為正確答案。

　　6. 【答案】 D)。

　　【精析】 名詞辨析題?？崭袂坝薪樵~With，還有形容詞some，所以需要填入名詞一起構成句子的狀語。選項中名詞還有accommodations和 exceptions兩個。accommodations"住處"不符合句意。選擇exceptions"例外"構成短語with some exceptions，意為"除了一些特殊情況外"。

　　7. 【答案】 E)。

　　【精析】 動詞辨析題。通過分析句子結構可知，空格位于that引導的定語從句中，連詞and前的句子缺少謂語動詞，且與and后面的let為并列關系，所以空格處應填入動詞原形。句中的tiny cracks and gaps指的是"狹小的縫隙和缺口"，隨著時間流逝，它們會，從而導致外界更多的空氣流入室內。可知，expand"擴展，增大"符合句意。

　　8. 【答案】 O)。

　　【精析】 形容詞辨析題?？崭袂懊嬗胁欢ü谠~a，后面為名詞number，因此空格處需要填入一個形容詞。此處的a number of為固定短語，意思是"大量的"，number前可以加上一些表示程度的形容詞，如great，large，vast等，表示"數量極大的"。因此，形 容詞備選項中，vast"巨大的"符合句意。

　　9. 【答案】 F)。

　　【精析】 形容詞辨析題?？崭窈竺鏋閛nes，所以空格處需要填入形容詞作定語。在意義上，句中存在from...to...結構，表示一種轉變或變化，因此空格處 的形容詞應該和to后面處于定語位置的postwar在意義上相對。postwar指二戰以后，是一個較近的時間。因此，空格處詞應該具有"較早的，久遠 的"的意思。另外，從句中舉出的例子Lincoln's Cottage(林肯故居)也可以驗證這一推斷。所以historic"歷史上著名的，有歷史意義的"符合句意，為本題答案。

　　10. 【答案】 I)。

　　【精析】 動詞辨析題?？崭袂懊嬗袆釉~help，后面有名詞短語，而help不能與后面的介詞from搭配使用，因此排除空格處為形容詞的可能性，空格處應該為省略to的動詞不定式。另外，從句意上來看，這一句承接上句，仍然在陳述為老住宅進行升級的好處。備選動詞中符合結構和句意雙重要求的只有protect，因此為本題答案。
