【解析】

1.

解析　此處表示最早已知的定居者，因此選known。

2.2】　D

解析　此題考查詞義辨析。across指“橫跨”；through指“(從……內(nèi)部)穿過……”；into指“進(jìn)入，到……里”；on指“在……上”。穿越白令海峽應(yīng)該用across。

3.3】　C

解析　用ago表示純粹的過去。句意為：據(jù)說10 000年前印第安人由東亞穿越白令海峽和大海來到此地。

4.4】　A

解析　此處選A項表示“到達(dá)此地”，reach為及物動詞。根據(jù)上文可知，印第安人是首先來到加拿大的人，而此處提到的是歐洲人，B項不符合語境；由前文及常識可知，歐洲人來到加拿大時，還沒有飛機，故C項錯誤；ship作動詞時表示“用船運，運送”之意，不符合語境。

5.5】　B

解析　此處covered by(覆蓋著……)為過去分詞短語作areas的定語。

6.6】　D

解析　only a few只有一些。要注意：盡管此詞組表示的數(shù)量不多，但不能用only few。

7.7】　C

解析　本句主語為people，所以謂語要求用復(fù)數(shù)形式。全文時態(tài)為過去時，故選C項。

8.8】　A

解析　此處cross為動詞，意思是“跨過，穿過”。愛斯基摩人從亞洲到加拿大中途要穿越白令海峽。

9.9】　B

解析　此處record意思是“記錄”。句意為：幾乎沒有他們早期活動的記錄。

10.0】　C

解析　根據(jù)下文可以看出是法國人。

11.1】　D

解析　此題考查詞組“in great numbers”，表示“大量地”。

12.2】　D

解析　此處where引導(dǎo)一個非限制性定語從句，在句中作狀語。

13.3】　A

解析　by the time of...意思是“到……時候為止”。后接表示過去的時間時，句子用過去完成時。

14.4】　B

解析　此處為現(xiàn)在分詞短語作定語，意思是“生活在……”。

15.5】　C

解析　此處的until與not搭配，意思是“直到……才……”。

16.6】　B

解析　表示不確定的數(shù)量，這四個選項中唯一正確的為B項，其他均不對。

17.7】　D

解析　此處“from...”表示“來自……”，指他們的祖籍。由本段第一句可知此處介紹加拿大的移民中英國人所占的比例。

18.8】　A

解析　考查詞組構(gòu)成。make up的意思是“組成……”。其他幾個介詞和make連用時，通常用被動形式。

19.9】　C

解析　the turn of the century意思是“世紀(jì)之交”。

20.20】　A

解析　come from來自。
