24、ase考查动词的时态。世卫组织补充说,到2050年,这个数量将增加到66%。由后面的by 2050可知,此处要用一般将来时。 因此填will increase。3.better考查形容词的比较级。人们搬到城市通常是为了更好的工作和更多的文化活动。由后面的more可知,此处要用比较级,故填better。4.themselves考查反身代词。但他们是在冒险吗?分析句子可知,本句的主语是they,且put oneself at risk意为“把自己置于危险中”,所以要填themselves。5.experiencing考查非谓语动词。专家说,大自然也能帮助我们更好地学习。体验自然有助于人们从日常工作
