【分析】
解题时需结合句子语境、时间标志及动词的相关语法规则(固定搭配、时态、语态、非谓语动词)逐一分析:
1. 看到see,回忆固定搭配see sb do sth(看见某人做某事的全过程),确定用动词原形;
2. 问句提及过去时间yesterday,答句描述过去某时刻正在进行的动作,需用过去进行时;
3. 洞穴是“被发现”,动作发生在过去,需用一般过去时的被动语态;
4. 固定搭配insist on后接动名词作宾语;
5. 时间状语all the time(一直)提示动作正在进行,需用现在进行时;
6. 时间状语over the years(多年来)是现在完成时的标志,需用现在完成时;
7. “去世”是过去发生的动作,需用一般过去时;
8. 此处用不定式作后置定语修饰partner,构成“partner to do sth”结构,需用不定式。
【解析】
1. 考查固定搭配see sb do sth(看见某人做某事的全过程),故填come;
2. 考查过去进行时:描述过去某个时刻正在进行的动作,结构为was/were + doing,主语she为单数,故填was waiting;
3. 考查一般过去时的被动语态:主语the cave是动作discover的承受者,时间状语暗示动作发生在过去,结构为was/were + done,主语单数,故填was discovered;
4. 考查固定搭配insist on doing sth(坚持做某事),介词on后接动名词,故填voicing;
5. 考查现在进行时:时间状语all the time(一直)提示动作持续进行,主语endless pressure为不可数名词,故填is stealing;
6. 考查现在完成时:时间状语over the years(多年来)是现在完成时的标志,结构为have/has + done,主语friendship为单数,故填has remained;
7. 考查一般过去时:“去世”是过去发生的动作,用动词pass的过去式,故填passed;
8. 考查不定式作后置定语:不定式to cooperate with修饰名词partner,构成合理搭配,故填to cooperate。
【答案】
1. come 2. was waiting 3. was discovered 4. voicing 5. is stealing 6. has remained 7. passed 8. to cooperate
