【解析】
本文为说明文。
本文就警告牌在使用的过程中出现了一些危险,导致消费者与公司之间发生纠纷而产生索赔展开了讨论。
【1题详解】
考查非谓语动词。
句意:
外面的世界很艰难。
走出商场,你可能会在门垫上滑倒而摔断腿。
根据语境可知,此空在句中作状语,其逻辑主语是you,二者是逻辑主谓关系,应使用现在分词,表主动。
故填slipping。
【2题详解】
考查主谓一致及时态。
句意:
今天,甚至梯子上都有一个几英寸长的标签,上面写着“可能会掉下来”等警告。
分析句子可知,本句是定语从句,其中定语从句修饰先行词alabel,alabel在定语从句中作主语,谓语动词要用单数形式。
本句叙述的是现在的一个客观事实,故要用一般现在时。
故填warms。
【3题详解】
考查人称代词。
句意:
但许多公司仍然不确定,如果顾客受到伤害,这些标签是否能使他们免于承担法律责任。
根据上下文的语境可知,此处的主语是许多公司many(companies),不知道这些标签是否能使他们免于承担法律责任。
可知,本空指代上文中many(companies),并在句中作动词protect的宾语,应使用代词的宾格。
故填them。
【4题详解】
考查非谓语动词。
句意:
事实上,当受伤的顾客把公司告上法庭时,大约有50%的公司蒙受了损失。
“takesb.tocourt”为固定搭配,意为“把……告上法庭”。
分析句子可知,本空的逻辑主语是50%ofthecompanies,二者是被动关系,此处是指公司被告上法庭,应使用过去分词,表被动。
故填taken。
【5题详解】
考查状语从句的连接词。
句意:
随着人身伤害索赔的不断增加,形势似乎正在转变,一些法院开始站在被告一边。
根据语境可知,本空应使用连接词as“随着”引导时间状语从句。
故填As。
【6题详解】
考查定语从句。
句意:
一些法院开始站在被告一边,特别是在警告标签可能不会改变任何事情的情况下。
分析句子especiallyincases___6___awarninglabelprobablywouldn'thavechangedanything.可知,本句是定语从句,其中的先行词为cases,关系词在定语从句中作地点状语,应使用关系副词where引导,此处指“尤其是在这样的案件中”。
故填where.
【7题详解】
考查非谓语动词。
句意:
今年5月,舒特体育总裁朱莉·尼蒙斯(JulieNimmons)成功地打了一场官司,一名足球运动员戴着Schutt头盔而导致全身瘫痪的足球运动员。
分析句子可知,本空在句中作定语,修饰名词alawsuit,它与动词involve二者是逻辑主谓关系,应使用现在分词,表主动。
故填involving。
【8题详解】
考查连词。
句意:
我们真的很抱歉,他已经瘫痪了,但头盔的设计并不是为了防止这种伤害。
分析句子可知,空格前后是转折关系,应使用but。
故填but。
【9题详解】
考查连词。
句意:
与此同时,由法官和律师组成的美国法律研究所(AmericanLawInstitute)发布了新的指导方针,称公司不必提醒客户注意显而易见的危险,也不必用一长串可能的危险来惹恼他们,因此信息就不会被淹没在一大堆琐碎的小事中。
分析句子结构及句意可知,此处使用连词so“因此”连接上下语境。
故填so。
【10题详解】
考查介词。
句意:
这些产品的信息可能实际上是为了客户的利益而提供的,而不是作为对法律责任的保护。
分析语境可知,本空缺少一个介词,根据语境可知,此处应使用介词as“作为”。
故填as。
